Service was terrible. Waitress was nice but she disappeared after placing our order. Ordered drinks, never got them. Had to reorder them from the bar after getting our food. Good luck flagging a Bartender down, they are slow, stand around talking to one another or just plain ignore people at the bar rail.
Ordered over $100 in food, had to keep asking for what we ordered because several items were missing. Mozzarella wedges were good. Nachos gave the two of us that ate them food poisoning. Don’t order the Moscow mule, it’s 90% lime juice.
Wait time for the amount of food we ordered wasn’t bad. However, after being sick for the past 24+ hours, I would not recommend.

Nice quiet spot for lunch with great prices and wonderful adult beverages. Really nice that they offer a discount for first responders! Very cool decor from various fire and police departments. We will be back!

The bartender was alright, but you could tell she didn't want to be there...place was empty. Food was underwhelming.

Located in the brewery area near Manchester Road.
Attended on a Saturday night. Great crowd. Adult-Aged individuals, very mature atmosphere. R&B trivia night. Good drinks, good food. The bar was consistent and they were pretty quick with the service. You cannot order at your table you have to order at the bar and then you can order food from your table.
The restrooms were a little bit outside of the property but not outdoors, you have to walk into a common restroom area I think is shared amongst the other establishments but it was very clean. The seating area was clean it was very relaxed atmosphere very good R&B music. There is room for you to dance if you would like to dance also the vibe for just sitting and chilling. It gives off a very smooth easy-going atmosphere with good food and spirits. There are TVs inside playing sports on several big screens. A bar atmosphere but also mixed with a lounge atmosphere. Very welcoming and a good spot to come with friends. They also have a sitting area outside that's very comfortable as well. I will definitely return.
Vegetarian options: Definitely we need to look at the menu to see clarifications on food options
Dietary restrictions: Not sure
Parking: There are plenty of parking lots available to the area with multiple shared businesses
Kid-friendliness: No. Not in the evenings
Wheelchair accessibility: One level entrance

We were disappointed in the service and the food here. I really wanted to like this place. We came on a Saturday late afternoon to watch a football game. The place was empty and the bartenders were more interested in doing shots together than serving the 3 customers at the bar.
The food was bad. I hate to say that, but no other explanation. Burnt fries, dried out boneless wings, and kraft singles like cheese on the club sandwich.
The decor and general vibe of the place was cool. We really wished the food and/or service were better. If either one was decent, we’e try again but with both as poor as they were, we probably won’t be back.
As the day got a little later, it got a little busier for the pool tables and had a dive bar vibe that made me think it would be fun to hang out and drink beer, with no expectation of service.
Another note, and not their fault, but this is labelled as a sports bar online and it’s really not. It has sports bar vibes, but there are only a few TVs and more an after thought than the point.
Kid-friendliness: Fine during the day, but I wouldn’t bring kids here after 6ish.

Everyone in our party loved their meals. Burgers, coneys, sandwiches, onion rings, & fries were all great. No table service but our food was brought to our table.

Food was non descript and dull. Service was non existent. Not at all like the pictures on Google or anywhere. Not impressed at all.

It's definitely a place to check out if you are in Lexington. Just wish the smoker would have worked for the bourbon.

My wife and I were visiting from Arizona, and after a busy morning of probably one-to-many distillery tours, desperately needed to find some food. Someone at the distillery recommended Halligans, so we decided to check the place out. The smokehouse fries were just the thing I needed to help sober up after all of the bourbon. My wife got the burger, and it must have been good because she wouldn't let me try a single bite. The bartender really knew her stuff and had the most positive attitude about her. We enjoyed our food (and talking with her) so much that we came back for lunch on Saturday too! We're on our way back to Phoenix now, and I already miss this place.
