I enjoy stopping in and having good food, good drink, and great conversations. I appreciate the vegetarian options and local beer selection. I have been there a few times now and have always met some of the most interesting people, on both sides of the bar! Shout out to The Twins ✌🏽

Awesome little spot hidden right on the corner of 2nd and Jefferson St. Not sure what I expected but I was pleasantly surprised upon my arrival. Seems like a chill relaxed places.

Villainous is a great experience! Never experienced a tabletop bar before where we could play RPGs or board games before and I am so happy to have this place in Lexington! The staff is usually two people so they can keep costs affordable and provide a great setting for nerds to gather and meet!
Keep being excellent Villainous! We'll keep reserving tables for our game nights! Love that you have my favorite cider in stock!

I came to KY for a work trip and wanted to check out this place on my own for its creative drinks and fun atmosphere. It was nothing short of what I expected. The staff Mickey and Jack were very welcoming and I had awesome conversations with them. One even showed me his unique watch collection. I am definitely inspired to nerd out more since visiting this place. I enjoyed my visit so much that I bought a t shirt to rep them wherever else I go! Thank you Villainous staff for all the laughs and stories! 🫶 To future customers - if you are one to want to sit down and play board games with someone then definitely bring a friend! Otherwise, having a drink, snacking and vibing is a fun thing to do here alone! :)) maybe bring a project or a book to do on your own as well

We were visiting from out of town and were excited to check it out. We showed up around 10pm on a Wednesday and were surprised/disappointed to find them closed and completely empty. Google maps, their website and the sign on their door all said they were open til 11pm. Not sure if their hours changed or if we caught them on a bad night but it was super disappointing to pay for an Uber only to find them closed.

Honestly, I’ve came here a few times now and have officially been inspired enough to leave a review. The staff are always on point and consistent with their kindness (and funny sense of humor). I’ve also never felt overlooked, or undervalued here. Even when it’s insanely busy.
I’m for sure considering making this spot “my go-to spot”. I literally like it that much.

My wife & I's favorite date spot! We drive up from Nicholasville at least every other week to play some games and try their rotating pizza specials. They're always unique & delicious!
Service is always top-notch & their game selection is extensive and has something for every skill level. I don't know what they put in their ranch, but I'd pay good money for the recipe because I am truly addicted.

It wasn't very busy when i went but it was chill. The chicken strips were great as were both the regular and sweet potato fries. The ranch was only alright but I can let that slide as everything else was great
