This is one of my go-to spots. I have had a few different dishes and the lemon pepper wings are so good! The Gin Garden is my favorite drink. Sometimes it’s relaxed and games are on the TVs and sometimes it can be more energy and music playing. Never had a bad experience here.

Parlay is an awesome spot in downtown Louisville. It’s a laid-back sports bar with a fun atmosphere and plenty of TVs so you can catch any game. The food is simple but perfect for a sports bar; things like pizza bites, burgers, hot dogs, and pasta. The drinks were great, strong, and fairly priced, and the bartenders (and all the staff) were friendly and welcoming. They changed games around when asked, and my bartender even learned a speciality drink for me and knocked it out of the park.
When I went, there were a bunch of Bengals fans, so it might even be a Bengals bar, but either way it’s a great local spot to hang out, grab a bite, and watch the game. I had a great time and will definitely be back.

Parlay sports bar was decent. I ordered 2 chicken sandwiches w/ fries and 2 alcohol beverages. The food was pretty good. The sandwiches has a honey Sriracha sauce on them that was pretty good. Our drinks were perfect . A little strong, but that’s how I like it. Lol. Bartender was friendly and was easy to have a conversation with. I would go back.

We went to this bar back at the end of August 2025 while we were in town for an event. I have been trying to figure out the name of this place since then. Let me just say that I have not had a better mac & cheese since. I cannot wait til the next time we’ll be able to come back!
If you’re looking for a good place for dinner/drinks I promise THIS is the place. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was great, and the service was top tier.

Working away from home for months at a time has its challenges. Parlay made the adjustment easy!! It has an amazingly cozy feel and with great food and good people adding to it. The crowd is diverse and drinks are outstanding!! Adam is the best!! I walk through the door and he starts making my usual. This is the place “where everyone knows your name”!! Cheers!!

I enjoyed it there. It was full of good people from all over congregating for a good time in Louisville. I vacationed in that city and had been to the spot for the first time. Other than a few lousy New Yorkers there, who didn’t stay long, it was certainly worthwhile. It gets so packed it’s hard to get a seat if you don’t have one already during sports at times.

Great place. Had heard good things. First time here though. Adam, I believe who was the manager stopped by and talked to us at the bar. Awesome dude and we connected on being Cubs fans. Really cool bartender. Didn’t get his name but I was at the back bar. Tried the honey garlic Sriracha wings and they were fantastic.

Emily is a fantastic bartender! My coworker and I had a great time, the food was delicious, the bourbon selection was outstanding, the layout was perfect and we could not have been happier. I travel to Louisville often for work so I will definitely be back.
