Food Scene

A great spot for Vietnamese food, especially if you love pho. Save room for the avocado milkshake! This place is often packed, and there's not a huge waiting area, but it's definitely worth a stop.

A local shop for popsicles made in house. They have a variety of pops that are $3/each (trust me, you'll want to treat yourself).

This is the quintessential old-school diner that's right across the street from the track. It gets busy around the Kentucky Derby, but if you can get a seat at the counter, grab a super cheap breakfast. Just make sure you bring cash and come early -- this restaurant is only open for breakfast and lunch.

Drinks & Nightlife

This is the best hole-in-the-wall in town. There's an awesome jukebox, a pool table, and occasional karaoke and live music. PLEASE NOTE: This is a DIVE. I'm talking rough around the edges. But if you're looking for a cheap drink, go for it.
