About Mudrock's Tap & Tavern

Once you walk through our door, you’re with friends. Locally owned and family operated, Mudrock’s Tap and Tavern brings the best of life’s simple pleasures together so you can relax, relate and share good times with us.

From breakfast biscuits to delicious burgers, wings and everything in between, we use fresh, natural ingredients and source from neighbors whenever possible. We’re constantly tapping and trying beer and most likely, have your favorites on one of our 30 taps.   And yes, the game is always on one of 32 HD screens equipped with every major sports package.

The Mudrock name encapsulates the affinity we have for sports and our town’s community spirit and history. Local Louisville hard-working coal miners and their families loved playing baseball during summer when it was too hot to mine and, being far from pro teams, formed their own clubs. One player, Phil Mudrock, made it to the majors and signed as a pitcher for the Chicago Cubs in 1963. According to the Lousiville Times, he signed his contract right here behind the Miners Field backstop.

Not too bad. And as we like it, not too fancy. Just right.

Thanks everyone for a fun evening at Mudrocks! No fewer than 3 teams were high scorers in Round 1 (5 of a possible 6): Jetstars, Two Geese and first-timers All Stars.  Jetstars were also high scorers in Round 2 (8 out of 8) and led after 2 rounds...until a failed doble dropped them back into the pack; they (along with 3 other teams) fell for the banana in the tailpipe thinking that Sunny von Bulow was the husband 😉

At this point Taylor's Version seized control of the game, scoring 8-9-10 in Rounds 4-5-6 (27 of a possible 30 points) to build a lead that none could surpass in the final round. EVERYONE got the Guess Who question right (Taylor's Version got it for 8 points), and they and Jetstars were the only ones to tumble to the Beetlejuice theme in the Find The Connection round; Jetstars scored 8-8 in Rounds 5 and 6 to secure 2nd place.  Round 7....was a mean one. Jetstars (HS teachers) actually named 6 of the largest moons in the solar system correctly, whiler Taylor's Version got 4 to win by 5 points; the other 3 teams all scored 1 point in that round with...the moon LOL. A good time was had by all, and I look forward to seeing you all next week!
