KSBar & Grille , the popular sports bar owned by the team behind Kentucky Sports Radio , is closing for the summer.

Matt Jones, one of the owners, said that after seven years of slinging wings, burgers and beer, KSBar needs renovations and a refresh.

The radio show will not be affected by the restaurant closure.

He said the bar will be closing June 3 and reopening in August, well before football season begins.

“We’re taking a break,” Jones said. “We’re going to do some upgrades to the facility, refresh the menu and the interior.”

Jones said they informed employees on Monday about the plans. Some staff will stay on during the transition, while others will be offered positions at places owned by bar partners.

“Everybody we have will be welcomed back when we reopen,” Jones said.
