“I got a Salted Caramel Oatmilk Iced Latte on 7/13/26 and oh my goodness was it perfection!! The sweetness level was just right, the espresso wasn't burnt, the oatmilk was creamy.
If I lived in Lexington and wasn't just visiting, I'd go there all the time!“

“As a fellow restaurant, owner, out of state and many miles away, there is so much that I appreciate about our visit to Solomon‘s Porch. Friendly staff, excellent food, great atmosphere. And we had the opportunity to meet the owners, Tim and Erin, and could see in that short visit time, that their love for their community in which they have immersed themselves, is the driving force behind why they do business there. They live the people in Wilmore, just like we do in our own little café, Downtown D’Lites, in Kilgore, Texas! Our experience with lunch yesterday and then breakfast today, and even meeting my brother Dave, who is also on a road trip from Oklahoma, was a great stop on the way to our New Jersey destination!“

“I stopped into a neat little breakfast spot called El Café, and I was genuinely impressed. The lady who took my order was incredibly kind and professional. It’s refreshing to see a small shop take such care in preparing food. Everything was fresh and well-presented, and they even gave me hot water for my tea without me asking. Great service, cozy atmosphere—highly recommend!“

“My 5 week old was admitted for biliary atresia. Dr Rellinger, Martin, Dewberry did the procedure and so far all is well. It felt like we had seen so many people from the Doctors, Nurses, residents, pain management, GI, nutrition, etc and everyone was always helpful. Shout-out to the team of doctors who performed the procedure to help our girl, we are so grateful! The 4th floor nurses in the progressive care unit were amazing to us! Miroslava (heaven sent), Alan, Katie, Alivia, Ally, Kris, Amanda, are just a few who were wonderful! The cons of our experience were a couple ladies who when trying to store my Breastmilk were so rude! Telling the receptionist to tell me there was no room in their fridge (my bag was already there, it could hold more) to place my new milk. Stated that they shouldn't have to retrieve my milk ( more than happy to walk it there) and go to the cafeteria to put it in ice. I was told **Jesse** said it and a lady named Tammy was mentioned throughout. Doubt there was anything done after talking to a higher up and making a phone complaint. Last con was we were discharged and still needed the medicine for my daughter. The Retail Pharmacy took **3 HOURS** AFTER DISCHARGE to bring the medicine. All that was said was they were slammed.“

“For the past five months or so, I have taken a liking to this Panera. It provides a cozy atmosphere, like many Panera(s), for a pre-brunch morning escape. And, unlike any other times when I use to frequent any Panera, I find the food here to be surprisingly delicious, satisfying, and all at a reasonable price.

However, there are often long waiting-periods for food, especially for dine-in services. And I've noticed frequent blunders with guest's orders when traffic picks up.

Also, there is one manager/lead/supervisor, particularly a tall woman who, at least to me, comes across as rude and unwelcoming. I kind of dread when she's there.“
