Arguably, the most famous race of the calendar year, the Kentucky Derby, is nearly upon us! Taking place on May 2, 2026, it is a can’t-miss event for horse racing novices and enthusiasts alike, but if you can’t make it to Churchill Downs, then the second-best option is right here with us at the Derby Bar and Grill!
With big screens, drinks, and premier seating for every second of this day-long event, the Derby has exactly what you are looking for in a Kentucky Derby experience. So, make your reservation, buy your fanciest hat or fascinator, and join us for a day at the races like no other!

Come join us every Thursday this Summer from 3-6 PM for Trackside at Twilight, where we offer live music, a special happy-hour menu, and seating in our beautiful garden patio. If you’ve been waiting for an event that’s a little bit cooler, a little bit calmer, and with special items and pricing exclusive to the event, then this is it. Trackside at Twilight is one of our most popular events of the year, and if you’ve never been, you won’t want to miss it. Visit us every Thursday to see what summer at the Derby has in store.
If you’re looking for a window into the life of the horsey set, then look no further than Wednesday nights at the Derby. On Wednesdays, we encourage our patrons to take a step out of the stands and up into the owner’s box with an evening of wine, fine dining, and sophisticated wagering.
With a trained sommelier guiding your meal, we offer a unique experience designed to delight the senses and take you and your party by the hand to a bygone age. Whether you are gathering with friends to gossip about the latest scandal on the track, predicting the next Triple Crown winner with other enthusiasts, or simply looking to enjoy a quiet evening with a beguiling suitor, Wednesday nights are for you.
Each meal involves a curated choice of two red and two white wine tasters, along with a garden salad and a gourmet pasta, and at only $39, it’s the perfect way to enjoy the perks of the ‘Set’ without having to buy a horse.
Every Saturday from 8 AM to 4 PM, it’s Race Day at the Derby! During this weekly event, we turn our focus back to the noble sport that gave us our name and the sea of friendly faces who make up the local racing enthusiasts. With good food, drinks, camaraderie, and the thrill of the final stretch - this is the perfect event for those who think a day at the races should be a weekly occurrence.
If that sounds like you, be sure to get here early because seating fills up very quickly. As an additional word of caution on these days, it tends to get a bit raucous as the action heats up, so if you’re looking for a quiet meal on a Saturday afternoon, we recommend our incredible dinner options.
