The Elkhorn Tavern offers a unique dining experience with its interesting menu options, including the burgoo, which has good flavor but can be a bit thin. The meatballs in bourbon BBQ sauce are a highlight, and the bread pudding is a rich and sweet treat. The atmosphere is excellent, with lots of dark wood and a cozy ambiance. This fun tavern is also a stop on the Bourbon trail in Lexington, KY, located in the Barrel House Distillery. While the service can be slow and inexperienced at times, the friendly staff, including a happy bartender with a ponytail, makes an effort to ensure a good experience. The bar staff is knowledgeable about bourbon and engaging, contributing to a great time. The tavern features a wide range of drink options, including a great bourbon selection, and offers food for those looking to extend their visit. Guests can enjoy items like BBQ pulled pork sliders and chicken salad sandwiches. The corn muffins with corn mash are also good, though some may prefer sweet corn muffins instead. Despite some minor quibbles, The Elkhorn Tavern is a great spot to spend quality time with friends, enjoying good food, drinks, and conversation, often accompanied by live entertainment.
