About The Elkhorn Tavern

The Elkhorn Tavern offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere with lots of dark wood and a warm ambiance. Located in the Barrel House Distillery in the Bourbon Trail in Lexington, KY, it is known for its interesting menu options and friendly staff. The food includes favorites like the burgoo, which has good flavor but can be a bit thin, as well as meatballs in bourbon BBQ sauce and the rich and sweet bread pudding. Guests enjoy the homemade dips such as Spicy Corn Queso and Buffalo Chicken Dip, along with two house-made Kentucky soups: Soup Beans and Burgoo. The tavern also serves popular sandwiches like Pimento Cheese and Country Ham on Hawaiian Rolls. The bar features a wide range of drinks, including a great bourbon selection, and the bartenders, like Katrina, are fun, polite, and professional. The atmosphere is especially enjoyable when the fire is going on cold days, and live entertainment, such as open mic nights, adds to the fun. Though service can sometimes be slow, the staff makes every effort to provide a good experience. Overall, The Elkhorn Tavern is a great place to spend time with friends, enjoying good food, drinks, and conversation.
