Water Street's crown jewel as far as I'm concerned! This place was awesome when it was dive-y and remodeled it is damn near perfect!
Located in a part of Henderson that isn't filled with soccer moms and Bikram yoga afficionados, Gold Mine is real Henderson...Hendertucky if you will. The beers are cold and cheap and they have hands-down the best juke box in town. No censored songs on this bad boy. But most times you won't even need its help thanks to the live bands Gold Mine regularly hosts. With their new (well new if you haven't been there in about a year) outdoor patio seating, there's more room for a stage and lots of tables and chairs, even couches, to lounge on and let your ears be rocked.
To be blunt, the place is awesome, the people may be a little rough around the edges but they're nice and the venue has really stepped it up over the years. Get yourself a designated driver and show some love to the 'tucky.
