Had to make a road trip stop overnight in Lexington and wanted to check out something close to the hotel. I stumbled upon everything you would hope for in a dive bar. The staff was friendly and the two bands were really good. Had a great time all by myself and no weirdos there to bother me. 10/10.

First time at Al's for a friend's show. Had a good time. Vibes were good and fun. The bartender was great. Wasn't sure where to park.

Awesome little hangout spot! The food is excellent, they have a huge selection of drinks, two stages for music (indoor and outdoor) and the people were cool. I'll definitely be back!

Live music is fun, drinks are good, and staff are friendly. However, the music is always significantly louder than necessary for the space. Bring earplugs or suffer.

Goth vs Emo night/prom. I'm not new to the Goth scene. And, I'm also a DJ. A Goth/Industrial/EBM DJ. The music that was played tonight for the Goth side was, absolutely atrocious. Not one (other than a Cure song) iconic Goth dance club song was played. I wanted to shove the, what looked like a washed up has been of a Goth DJ off the stage and get the room dancing. I couldn't stand it. Now for the bar. No Jager for a Jager and Pineapple. Nothing for Bloody Mary's. Small selection of bourbon. And premade fruity drinks. And, no cook. Had to Doordash. But, would absolutely return to figure out the bar menu, ONLY IF, a better Goth DJ were to be present.
