The Big Four Bridge is one of the most beloved manifestations of Louisville's bicycle-friendly mentality. This brand new pedestrian bridge is meant for walkers and bikers alike, and it connects one end of Kentucky to one end of Indiana without any roads or highways.

Visitors to the bridge get a stunning view of the riverfront and downtown Louisville’s ever-growing skyline, all while traveling in a safe, contained environment. You’ll find a number of people running for exercise, taking a leisurely stroll, or biking to get from point A to point B at just about any time of the day, but despite its occasional crowds, the Big Four Bridge is a fun and convenient way to get around Louisville.

The Big Four Bridge is open 24 hours a day, every day of the week.

While the usual restaurant surf and turf includes a juicy steak with a side of shrimp or scallops, Mussel and Burger Bar offers a new take on the classic menu option. Like its name implies, this American eatery specializes in gourmet burgers and high quality mussels fresh from the sea.

Regulars recommend starting any meal with the Meuniere mussels before moving on to the expansive and mouthwatering burger menu, which includes unique styles like the Mediterranean, La Frita Cubana, and the Southern Belle burger. All of Mussel and Burger Bar's burgers are piled high with flavorful toppings and finished with a thick, high quality burger patty.

The eatery features a sparse, wood-filled dining area with lots of natural light, meals served in cast iron skillets, and handcrafted cocktails straight out of mason jars. There is also an impressive selection of craft beers to pair with your burger.
