Great place to hang out. Solid drink and food specials with great service. My only suggestion is to not cook the bacon quite so much. My BLT was good but the bacon was super super crunchy. Might be hard to chew for some people.

Clean. Super service and great food. Portobello mushroom sandwich is a 5 napkin challenge 😋. And I am converted....Banana Old Fashioned...the bomb.

Not going to lie… loved the old place better! Taco night was the best
Kemps has good bar food, friendly staff and a fun atmosphere. Sometimes it’s a bit loud and chaotic but it’s always a go to when we are on the hunt for someplace to eat

Unassuming pub with an ambitious tap list. Owner finds the best breweries/beers in the state and brings them to Lexington.

This is a must-stop kind of place.

We stopped in for a late lunch and it was terrific! My husband and I split the tenderloin lunch that was one of today's specials and we got an order of tots with it. Knowing we were splitting it they delivered with everything divided on 2 plates, how nice. Tenderloin was perfectly cooked and the breading was crunchy awesomeness. Tots were crispy and delicious. Serving sizes are huge, service very good and the staff are friendly. The daily specials change daily and are always very good.

We had a great time at Kemps this past weekend! There was a wait when we got there but it is worth it! Highly recommend trying their hash brown nachos, they were amazing!

They REALLY need to have a server take your order and check on your table periodically. Other wise, I love the place.

Vegetarian options: Portobello mushroom burger was excellent
