2 40 yr old professional guys staying in louisville wednesday night..any suggestions for nightlife?
2 40 yr old guys looking for nightlife wedsI am not sure exactly where you are staying at in Louisville but I would check out 4th Street Live.
There are 5 or 6 different bars/lounges and quite a few restaurants including Hard Rock Cafe. There are a few retail stores and bowling alley and I b elieve an Imax theatre but could be wrong. Anyway, i provided the link for the official website if you are interested.

This is probably too late, but steer clear of 4th St. Live. It%26#39;s a collection of corporate theme restaurants and bars. Not a taste of Louisville by any means.
Try Bardstown Rd./Baxter Ave. area. I would suggest you park on the street if front of Molly Malone%26#39;s and start walking around. There are several bars in that 2 block area alone.
Here is a nice list of places in that area. I copied this from a post by Seagrover (thanks Seagrover).
begin
The area that we locals refer to as ';Bardstown Road'; actually begins on Baxter Ave. if you are coming from the north (which you would be if you are coming from the Marriott). Baxter Ave will eventually run into Bardstown Rd.
The whole thing is about a 3 mile strip starting with the Phoenix Hill Tavern and pretty much ends with the Bambi Bar. Be advised, the list below is from memory and although many of these places serve food, but I only listed the places that feel more bar, than restaurant. There are still a ton of restaurants that I didn%26#39;t include.
Phoenix Hill Tavern - Cavernous. Multiple live bands on most nights. Draws a young, college crowd. Can be cheesy.
Outlook Inn - Divey. Great Bloodies. Hipster local crowd of mixed ages. Pool tables. Juke box in back.
Flanagan%26#39;s - Irish. Nice back patio. Lots of beers on tap.
Mixed/college crowd. Younger on weekends.
Molly Malones - Irish. Great outside space. College/prepster crowd.
Wet Willies - Those swirling daiquiri machines. The crowd seems cheesy to me, but I don%26#39;t spend a lot of time in there.
O%26#39;Shea%26#39;s - Irish. Great outside patio. Live music on some nights. Good all around bar.
Akiko%26#39;s - Karaoke.
Wick%26#39;s Pizza - Pizza pub meets bar. Live music on some nights.
Cahoot%26#39;s - Divey. Locals mostly. Mixed crowd. Pool tables.
BW3%26#39;s - Wings. College crowd. Sports. Sports. Sports.
Back Door - Behind ValuMarket. Hard to find. Locals only. Very mixed crowd. Divey. Lots of pool tables.
Highland%26#39;s Tap Room - Small. Live music. Good outdoor area.
Cumberland Brews - Brew pub. Small. Comfy.
Za%26#39;s Pizza - Good selection on tap. Good pizza. TV%26#39;s. Comfy.
Hideaway Saloon - Divey. A bit hard to find. Locals. Deadheads. Live music on many nights. Pool tables upstairs.
Cafe 360 - Open really late for food. Fully stocked bar. Hookah lounge. Hipster/mixed/Highlands crowd.
Asiatique - Upscale asian restaurant until around 11pm. Clubby/DJ thing in the basement late night.
Big Dave%26#39;s Outpost - Neighborhood bar. Pub grub %26amp; beers.
Dundee Tavern - Neighborhood bar. Good sports watching set-up.
Left Field Lounge - Divey/hole in the wall. Strange, but in a good way.
Bambi Bar - Neighborhood bar. Mixed crowd.
My best suggestion would be for you guys to begin your evening on the corner closest to Molly Malones %26amp; Flanagans (Baxter Ave. and Morton Ave.) From there, you are within easy walking distance of several bars. Most places will only have a small cover (if they have one at all)
end.
The area around Za%26#39;s and Cumberland Brews is a cool little area. You can walk around and see some of the locals in action. Always interesting. There is an awesome sushi place right there called Sapporo.
Hope you have/had fun.
Wednesday night is Ladies Night at Jim Porter%26#39;s!!!!
