Kevin Grangier Guest Bartends Thanksgiving Night at The Sea Hag — A 16-Year Louisville Tradition Returns Tonight
Anchorage, KY — For Immediate Release • November 26, 2025
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at The Village Anchor, Le Moo Fine+Steak+House, Grassa Gramma Ristorante Italiano, Sake a Gogo, and Belle Noble Hospitality Group. We are sincerely thankful for your support, friendship, and loyalty throughout the year — every celebration, every dinner, every gathering, and every familiar face means the world to us.
And tonight, we invite you to celebrate with us at a Louisville holiday tradition that’s been going strong for 16 years.
Kevin Behind the Bar — Thanksgiving Night, 7–11 PM at The Sea Hag Pub
Belle Noble Hospitality Group and The Village Anchor announce the return of one of Louisville’s most beloved and lighthearted Thanksgiving traditions: Kevin Grangier guest bartending at The Sea Hag Pub at The Village Anchor.
From 7–11 PM tonight, guests can enjoy a casual, come-as-you-are evening featuring:
Random cocktails until the booze and beer run out
Free chili while it lasts
Support for local animal rescue efforts
A relaxed Thanksgiving atmosphere with neighbors and friends
Kevin making drinks with enthusiasm, comedy, and zero formal bartending credentials
Some of your favorite Village Anchor bartenders on hand to assist — and clean up his mess
For those who’ve been before, you know Kevin typically gets “relocated” from behind the bar partway through the evening… but half the fun is seeing how long he lasts!
“Thanksgiving night is one of my favorite traditions at The Village Anchor,” said Kevin Grangier, Founder of Belle Noble Hospitality Group. “The Sea Hag is the perfect backdrop for a fun, relaxed evening with friends and neighbors — and supporting Animal Rescue makes it even better!”
Why This Night Matters — Supporting Rescue Kittens & Puppies
Every Thanksgiving Night at The Sea Hag helps raise visibility and support for the rescue kittens and puppies Belle Noble Hospitality Group helps care for throughout the year. These efforts include medical care, supplies, emergency needs, and placement support for animals who often have nowhere else to go.
Tonight is about cocktails, chili, laughter — and doing a little good along the way.
