Proof on Main, Restaurant and art gallery in Downtown Louisville, United States
Proof on Main is a restaurant with an art gallery component in Downtown Louisville housed across five restored 19th-century buildings. The bar features more than 75 Kentucky bourbons along with craft cocktails, regional beers, and curated wines.
The establishment opened in 2006 within five restored 19th-century buildings that are part of Main Street's architectural legacy. This renovation was part of a broader revitalization effort for the historic district.
The restaurant functions as part of the 21c Museum Hotel, with rotating contemporary art displays visible throughout the dining spaces. This blend of food and art creates a space where visitors encounter exhibitions while they eat.
The restaurant opens for breakfast at 7 AM, lunch from 11 AM to 2 PM, and dinner until midnight with extended hours on weekends. Rotating art exhibitions change regularly, making return visits worthwhile.
A private dining room seats 24 guests with custom menus prepared by Chef Cody Stone using ingredients sourced from Ohio River Valley farms. This local sourcing reflects the kitchen's commitment to regional agriculture.
