14 Best Beer Bars in Lexington

“MBT is steps away from the Staybridge Suites of South Lexington - seemed like a good place to try. Food - pretzel and beer cheese appetizer, KY Bourbon Burger Bowl with BBQ mayo, and boneless wings were all good. Food came out quick and hot. So many adult beverages on tap to choose from... but CiderBoys Caramel Apple was as good as sounds (and smells). Our server Catherine A. was sweet and personable. She answered our questions about MBT, UK football parking, and the area. She offered a number of food options when asked for her recommendation with a smile and genuine opinion. We were able to purchase growlers of the cider and found out they will fill growlers if you bring your own. Already considering going back to MBT for lunch tomorrow!“

“A very pleasant atmosphere, very delicious food, good customer service, very polite and attentive waiters. I definitely recommend this restaurant, which also bears my father's name. I will return as many times as I can. More than five stars.“

“Delicious authentic German food.“

“What can I say? Quick friendly service. Affordable food. Smoking hot burgers and fries. Absolutely delicious. The fried Oreos are insane. We came for a quick lunch and had Aaron as our server. He made our experience amazing. Will definitely be back.“

“This place is awesome! Josh is a great bartender and will keep you entertained and can literally talk to you about anything. Beer, wings, in house roasted coffee and a liquor store to grab some drinks to go. Tons of beer and liquor options so there is something for everyone. Go there!“

“The staff at Bicycle Face are amazing! They have helped me with my son’s bike on multiple occasions and they were super friendly and helpful at every visit. They are very knowledgeable about bikes and helped me get everything squared away . We will continue to come into the store whenever we have bike related projects. I highly recommend them!“

“The most fun I've ever had at a bar in downtown Lexington happened here. The bartender that night (Larry) was a blast. Quiet bar, but amazing customer service. We randomly walked in and stayed for the entire night out. We've tried to go back twice, but they were closed for the night, but still a great bar if you're just trying to hang out!“

“Wow! If you love bourbon… if you love craft cocktails and craft beer… B&R is a MUST!!! We had a perfectly balanced sour, a spirit forward old fashioned (smoked peel!) and their Coffee & Smoke which is a fun twist on a Manhattan with their own smoky flair. We arrived too late for their full menu, but their bar bites definitely did not disappoint…. The wings!!!! We will be back every time we’re in Lexington!“

“Marley and Carson and Emily are QUEENS. Love coming here just to see them. Plus the buff chicken dip is unmatched.“

“Chelsea our server was great and she made great recommendations. We tried the pretzel sticks with beer cheese, these are the best ever. Boone fries, the pimento cheese dog and the spicy chicken sandwich. The blackberry jalapeño sauce is soooo good!! Would definitely eat there again. Everything we had was really good. I don’t think their pricing is higher than anywhere else. Eating out in general is not cheap!!“

“Cozy bar inside the Sire Hotel, Lexington, with excellent concoctions by hospitable bartender Natalie, who crafted top-notch drinks for us like Race Thyme and Buck Bramble (check out their menu online). Natalie also mixed a mean sangria. She's a gem. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at this spot.“

“Great new York style pizza! crumbled sausage was fantastic. Will be back for sure.“

“Great Place! Friendly people and terrific bartender!“

“Perfect Vibe for after work relaxation and grab an amazing meal.“
