☕ The Local Rec
A Louisville local’s food rec, every week.
This week’s rec comes from:
Taylor Smith @ taylorinthe502
Taylor is the creative force behind The Highlight Collective, a Louisville based content studio helping events and businesses stand out online. Her feed is a go-to for beautifully shot coffee, cocktails, and the kind of cool local spots that make the city feel alive. Equal parts aesthetic and authentic Louisville energy.
Their Rec: Hotel Marty
Why they love it:
“If you’re looking for a cozy coffee spot in Louisville, Hotel Marty is it.”
“Great coffee, lots of space to work, the friendliest staff, and seasonal drinks that are always so good.”
Her Go-To order:
She has currently been loving the seasonal menu featuring valentines based drinks.
She recommended the drink featured in the picture, the “Baklava” Espresso with honey, pistachio, and cardamom.
The “Baklava”
Thank you Taylor for the rec! I am excited to go check out Hotel Marty and try all of the seasonal drinks. Let us know if you go check it out and send a drink pic!
Be sure to follow taylorinthe502 on Instagram and let her know if you try out Hotel Marty this week.
