Here comes trouble: Trouble Bar transforms into Nook & Nowhere

Take a look at what is new for this acclaimed bourbon and whiskey bar.

A white hanging sign with all caps serif font reads Nook & Nowhere, Bookstore, Bar, Cafe. It hangs on a brick wall with a black iron bar.

Goodbye, Trouble Bar. Hello, Nook & Nowhere.

In case you missed it, Trouble Bar has become Louisville’s first bookstore, cafe, and bar combo called Nook & Nowhere.

Don’t worry, the bourbon and whiskey aren’t going anywhere. And neither are the folks behind Trouble Bar — Nicole Stipp and Kaitlyn Soligan-Owens are still at the helm.

What’s different? Lots of books, for starters. Plus, plenty of pink chairs for cozy reading. Take a peek inside.

Hours

Good to know: Nook & Nowhere has special opening week hours. Stop by on Friday, Feb. 14 and Saturday, Feb. 15 from 10 a.m. through 10:30 p.m. On Friday, you can score discounted coffee — buy one, get the second half-off.
