St. Matthews burger restaurant to close after one 'last weekend'

Less than two years after opening, Bourbon & Burgers is closing this weekend. Bourbon & Burgers, a concept from Olé Hospitality Group , opened in March 2025 at 117 St Matthews Ave., taking over the former space of Señora Arepa in the heart of St. Matthews. The 3,600-square-foot building also previously housed locations of Quills Coffee and Steel City Pops. The upcoming closure was announced Nov. 13 on the restaurant's Facebook page. "It’s our last weekend, Louisville. Bourbon & Burgers will serve our final guests this Sunday, Nov 15, and we’d love to see you one more time," the Facebook post stated. "Pull up a stool, order your favorite burger, grab the wings and a few shareables, and raise a glass with us." .oembed-frame { width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0; border: 0; } As the eatery's name suggests, the menu at Bourbon & Burgers features “premium burgers” and “an extensive selection of top-tier bourbons,” The Courier Journal previously reported .

Crab legs, sushi rolls, and a hibachi grill all sit under one roof here, and one price covers the whole spread. That combo alone made me sit up a little straighter. On Sundays, the buffet turns into an all-day seafood event built around crab legs. Fried crab joins the lineup too.

Will Jim Beam distill next year in Clermont? The latest on Kentucky's bourbon giant

Major Kentucky distillery Jim Beam, which stunned the world in December 2025 b y closing its Clermont distillery for a year , plans to keep it offline at least through 2027. “We’re going to continue to have distillation paused at our Clermont distillery,” said Suntory president and CEO Greg Hughes in an interview with the Herald-Leader. “But Clermont remains a very active part of our Kentucky operations.” The campus, which has been the bourbon brand’s home just outside of Bardstown for 90 years, continues to operate tours and visitor experiences as well as bottling, aging, warehousing and other daily activities. But the bulk of distilling shifted to the larger industrial Booker Noe distillery in Boston. Hughes said that after a $400 million expansion there a few years ago that increased distilling capacity by 50%, Beam was able to meet current distilling demands there while making improvements at the Clermont site.

Louisville, Kentucky — a city where the Ohio River bends like a ribbon of memory, where red-brick Victorians and shotgun houses stand shoulder to shoulder, where bourbon and bluegrass mingle with the laughter of neighbors on stoops and the hum of a thousand stories. Here, the air is thick with the scent of magnolia in spring and the slow simmer of something soulful on the stove. Louisville is a patchwork of old South and new dreams, a city stitched together by the hands of generations — Black, white, immigrant, native, and every shade of hope in between.
