About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Kid-friendly
The Troll Pub opened on October 19th 2011, underneath the 2nd Street Bridge in a 135 year old space directly next to the YUM Center on historic Whiskey Row. The Troll Pub is a subterranean retreat that features a Gastro-pub style menu with a wide selection of great tasting food items, craft beer, local artwork, and an overall atmosphere unique to Louisville. We are just blocks from the Louisville Convention Center and only steps away from many of the hottest attractions and hotels situated downtown. Just look for the Troll on the corner of 2nd and Washington, he will show you the way.

    Waited a long time for food. That’s to be expected though when busy, so not bothered by that. All the adults received food about 10 mins before kids which is disappointing. If anything let’s get the kids feed first. Kids food was cold and chicken had a very bad taste. Had some upset stomachs following dinner so worried we may have gotten bad chicken. Enjoyed the private room, but think we were forgotten several times. In the past we had a good experience which is why we came back. Food was definitely disappointing this visit.

    We made the reservation for 4:30, they gave us the table right behind the host stand. There were tons of open spots. We asked to be moved so we old have more of the “experience” and the hostess was clearly annoyed and said they had a lot of reservations. The entire time we were there there were open tables. The only food that we thought was good was the appetizer (fries) that we got. Everything else was flavorless.

    We had reservation and were seated quickly. Sadly I do not remember our servers name but she was attentive but not hovering and very nice. We had the Troll fries as an appetizer which I should have passed on. I ate so many of them I could not finish my french dip sandwich which was also wonderful. We ate here to the last time we were in Louisville and will eat here again when we return. Wonderful place for couples or families.
