Bourbon & Burgers to Close St. Matthews Location Sunday
Bourbon & Burgers will close its nearly 5,000-square-foot St. Matthews restaurant on Sunday, less than two years after opening, as its parent company shifts focus to other concepts. The closure adds to a growing list of recent restaurant shakeups in the Louisville area.
Bourbon & Burgers will serve its final guests at its St. Matthews restaurant on Sunday, closing the nearly 5,000-square-foot location less than two years after it opened.
The restaurant's parent company is shifting its focus to other concepts, according to the company. No further details about the parent company's plans or the future of the St. Matthews space were immediately available.
The closure marks another change in the local dining landscape. In recent days, two additional Crumbl Cookies locations in Louisville have closed, and Barnes & Noble has opened a new store in St. Matthews. Other nearby developments include plans to demolish Mid City Mall and the sale of Papa Johns' Louisville campus.
For St. Matthews residents and workers, the closing removes a sit-down burger option from the neighborhood's restaurant mix. The site's size â nearly 5,000 square feet â could make it attractive to another operator, though no new tenant has been announced.
Bourbon & Burgers opened last year. The restaurant's final day of service is Sunday, Nov. 15.
