Magnolia Bar (Mag Bar)

4.4

About this business

While much of Old Louisville can be exactly that, meaning old, Mag Bar takes a step (albeit a baby step) in the direction of the new. That means in a neighborhood full of bed and breakfasts trafficking in chamber music and merlot, this place offers a loud jukebox and Miller High Life. The bar's facade is made up of big plate-glass windows, so the sun shines in warmly right up to the bitter end of happy hour.

The BEST dive bar ever. – I have been frequenting the Magnolia Bar for almost 5 years now. It is the only bar that I have ever walked into and felt immediately welcome. I don't just go there because of their great drink specials. The bartenders are attentive, warm, witty and great conversationalists. I can say the same about the regulars. I often find myself discussing anything from science to science fiction, history, books, music, movies...and I have been introduced to so many amazing and new things just from listening or ... read more

WORST bar ever – I was at this bar last night bc some girl friends decided to go out for some dancing. The bar had one bathroom and the door didn't close (and it was disgusting) so we did our girl thing and all went in. People outside the door started to become aggressive, everyone had to wait for a really long time even us to use the bathroom. They started to kick at the door violently and almost knocked me down as I was the one holding the door so the other girls could pee. They then broke a beer bottle around the door are... read more

The absolute worst bar in the kentucky/ohio/indiana/illinois area – If your idea of fun place to go is a place cram packed with underage scene kid losers, then mag bar is the spot for you!! They don't card anybody, and they have a regular free pizza night which attracts all of the emo loser kids in the city, who think their band is gonna be the next fall out boy. Save yourself the aggrevation and go somewhere else. Sleeved out, wannabe rockstars who think they're tough can get annoying very quickly, and this place is full of... read more

This Old Louisville neighborhood bar has cheap drinks, a stellar jukebox and a welcoming attitude. Just behave yourself. – The Scene A college-aged crowd packs the place late in the evening, but all are welcomed. One rule: no knuckleheads. Test this simple law and you'll find yourself out on the sidewalk rather than in one of the spot's two rooms. The decor is sparse but the prize decoration is a poster of J. Edgar Hoover with sexy mannequin legs sprouting from his lower half. The Booze There's a handful of beers on tap incl... read more
