Proof on Main 

Lauded as one of Esquire magazine’s “Best New Restaurants,” Proof on Main in downtown Louisville’s acclaimed 21c Louisville is a favorite for locals and visitors alike. With a commitment to local farming, we deliver plates infused with local flavor. The bar is a local hot spot and features 75+ Kentucky Bourbons. Complimenting the culinary artistry, we feature rotating contemporary art exhibitions, curated by 21c Museum.

Bars & Lounges:

Celebrating Kentucky’s native spirit
Our spirit collection emphasizes small batch, artisanal craftsmanship from around the world. Given our proximity to Bourbon Country, it is naturally highlighted by an impressive selection of 75+ of Kentucky’s finest Bourbons, some bottled exclusively for Proof on Main including special barrels of Woodford Reserve and Van Winkle. Our signature cocktail list includes original recipes inspired by the season (and sometimes Current Exhibitions), making Proof an essential stop along Louisville’s Urban Bourbon Trail. Fresh juices, inventive infusions and housemade tonic are highlights of their signature offerings.

Beyond Bourbon
Wino forever? Our award-winning wine list is both accessible and eclectic. With a 100-bottle list that includes small boutique producers as well as more widely recognized brands, our international collection includes wines hailing from Italy, Spain, France, Australia, Germany, Austria and the United States, representing both “Old World” and “New World” styles of winemaking. An extensive and frequently changing selection of wines by the quartino are chosen to pair with our menu offerings.

“To all the ladies in the place with style and grace….”  If the month of May means pops of pastels, placin’ bets on ponies and raising a little hell with a beveled bourbon highball in hand…  all the while cocking your chic chapeau of course, this #BirthdayBucketList is for you. We’ve been chomping at the bit to put this gamblin’ gathering at the top of our #BirthdayBucketList but we figured in this case, slow and steady would win the race.

We wanted to unearth an experience worthy of your group of gorgeous gals where tradition took a bit of a turn… you didn’t think we’d be all big hats and mint juleps did ya? (Not to worry, both of these beautiful traditions remain solidly a part of this story) For this bucket list you’ll still worship at the alter of the Churchill Downs but your “Old Kentucky Home” is a decidedly more modern, chic and art-filled after party at relative new kid on the block, 21c Museum Hotel Louisville.

So gather your favorite guys and gals, grab those fabulous fascinators and head to Louisville to host a bourbon-filled bluegrass bash at the Derby and 21c – our cards are on the table and baby, they’re just showing hearts.
