Checkers Reviews

Relaxed neighborhood tavern with fish, cheeseburgers, and always good bean soup. Their Club Salad is a nice, lighter entree.

Okay just visiting colleagues retirement party. Crowded that night.

Okay, local neighborhood diner with some local options. The place is quiet and allows for a nice business setting! I was there and enjoyed a burger and ribeye sandwhich that didn't break the wallet. Beer & spirits available!

Great traditional local bar. Good food - fun wait staff.

Had an awesome time. The food was great and the entertainment was the best. But you need more room. We had a huge crowd with us and we're elbow to elbow, but still had a blast.

Great variety on the menu. Good food, fun atmosphere. Gets super busy because it's so good, so try to show up a little early

Local charm, this place has recently expanded. Great food at a good price, you will enjoy the atmosphere.

It is exactly as I remembered. The fish sandwiches are a lot more expensive at a price point of $10.00. The service was a little slow, but we were sitting outside and had to deal with unreal number of flies.

Awesome! They never disappoint with their fish sandwich and fries. Found out they have an open dining area off the top floor. Did a little sunbathing while enjoying my lunch.

Great atmosphere, delicious fish!!! They stay kinda busy so a little slow but we'll worth it!!

Great atmosphere. Traveling with friends. Drink were perfect. We didn't get to eat because of a storm knocked power out but would go back

Love checks!! Good simple food in laid back atmosphere.

This is the slowest place in Louisville and way to high for what the serve 2 hamburger S. 15.oo. hamburger S.

I like this local neighborhood bar. We went for their fish and was not disappointed in the food at all. The staff is friendly, the place is clean and comfortable. I would recommend this place just for people who want to have a drink or two or a meal

Great selection of food sides and beverages for all ages.

They have pretty good food there plus entertainment on different nights

Great neighborhood bar and restaurant in Schnitzelburg in the heart of old Louisville.

Love this place a family tradition/favorite for all ages my father took me here yrs ago now I take my grandchildren

Mostly senior citizens. Very crowded. Friendly, music. And everyone seems happy to be there. A women could there alone and feel comfortable.

I love the people and food here. Go early because man do they get busy!!

If you live in Germantown, you eat at Check's. End of story.

Called to place a carry out order and the woman taking the orders was so rude that I just hung up. Probably won t ever go there.

Wonderful place, food is amazing, people are one of a kind..a must visit

Great local place that's been around for a long time. Great food and beer selection. Plus friendly staff. A place to feel comfortable.

Went here because it was recommended to me.
I got a Reuben and coleslaw. It was delicious and they got the food out fast so its great for when i'm on my lunch break. Will definitely be back.

Didn't food was over cooked. Usually good but it's awful now

Menus are not readily available. You order at a tiny bar where you are partially ignored due to other employees talking to each other. Hopefully you don't have any questions because you will be rushed away and maybe get your answer. If you want coffee after dinner you will not get it here. Doubt I will be back or recommend it.

I enjoyed the food and the environment it's a great place to eat the only thing that I have to complain about is I don't care for the table being cleared before everyone else is finished I was finished with my mule and my companion was not and they took my plate before she was done I prefer having everyone have their plate in front of them until everyone is finished eating

Super friendly staff, good prices, nice atmosphere. Kind of cramped, but plenty of outdoor seating.

Checks is a staple of the Louisvillian experience. I remember eating there with my grandparents, and now I take my niece and nephew. Checks has something for EVERYONE, served with the love of family.

My wife & I have been once & it was karaoke all night. We didn't participate, but the couple we were with did. You put your name & song in with the DJ & wait for your turn. It was very crowed that night but everyone was still very friendly. That particular night it was mainly an older crowd with a few younger folks mixed in. Still, we had fun. Lots of people dancing with every song. Thought the burger plates were a bit overpriced but they were pretty good. However, the wings tasted like they were cooked then dunked in bbq sauce before serving. Regardless, we will still do it again.

One of the best local places to go! Got the catfish dinner. Great value for the price and very tasty.

Excellent Neighborhood Tavern/Restaurant. Great atmosphere and very Friendly. Food is Excellent , a good place to go for Chicken Livers and a good Balanced Meal.

This is a gem tucked into the heart of Germantown and it is chalk full of Germantown flare. The staff is warm and welcoming into their stories establishment. The food is fresh and comforting. With a wide selection of options you can never go wrong with the daily special! It is fast, big and always good. Be it a stop in for a spot of lunch or a quick bite before a game, you can never go wrong with Checks! Have a pint while you are waiting and chat up the friendly staff to know all the goings and comings of the area. They are a wealth of knowledge.

The food was GREAT. If you've never eaten there you owe it to yourself to go!!

Loved Check's. Food was amazing, service was fast. It's well worth the visit

Good Neighborhood Bar & Restaurant with Karaoke on Thursdays & Saturdays.

How can you not enjoy a "legend" neighborhood establishment like Checks. Not sure if i could offer a suggestion to change anything!

I have worked here for over 8 years.. And i wouldnt want to work any where else.. You really couldnt work for a better man than the owner John Murrow!! I look forward to going to work it never feels like work though.. We dont have customers we have friends and family!! Checks is is truly one amazing place!! Im lucky to be apart of it!!

Food was delicious but the UK football game was not so good (UK lost).

A Louisville classic with great food! Awesome place to watch games!

I recently went to this place and was actually surprised by how good the food was! Customer service was great as well. This place is popular with the locals so you see the same people almost every time you go. I usually get a dressed cheese More

Good food. They have remodeled since I was there last.

Can't believe I've never been here before. A definite must for everyone! Best fish I've had in quite awhile! Super friendly staff!

It was busy as usual. We enjoyed our lunch , the chili was good as usual always a good time at Check's

You can always count on seeing a friendly for millier face I checks Cafe are some of the best chili in Germantown they make you feel right at home

Good food good people very friendly. Our first visit and we will be back

Great classic local friendly restaurant a Louisville legend

When I first moved to Louisville I loved the food here. Now it's just alright. I don't know if they changed recipes or their cook or whatever, but it hasn't been the same in a while.

Regardless, it's still perfectly good food, I just long for the good old days. And if you've never been to Louisville, you have to visit just for the experience.

Didn't tell me that they were out of what i ordered and waited over 20 minutes to tell me. The meal I received came with a biscuit that tasted moldy.

Great food! Great prices! Great service! My daughter thought she lost her retainer and one of the bartenders helped look for it in the trash. Awesome guy!

Fantastic variety of homemade soups with an array of tasty sandwiches/burgers backing them up. I've always received great service here. Tuesday pint night has beer bargains to boot!

Well I work there and I haven't had many jobs that I've enjoyed working and looked forward to going but this is one that I enjoy working at!!

Quaint, neighborly, fun place to gather with friends and family

A family tradition that goes back decades when visiting Louisville. Locals are lucky to have this iconic Tavern for local fare.
