One team member said: "Winchell's Restaurant and Bar is a Lexington classic sports bar with people-pleasing food for the entire crew. Whether it's game day snacks and drinks or a big family breakfast, this busy restaurant offers big portions, great service, and is a Lexington staple for a reason. "
We met my sister and family halfway between our house and theirs today (Dayton, Ohio area and Knoxville, Tennessee). Winchell’s was a perfect restaurant to do it! They had wonderful food and friendly helpful employees. We will definitely be back!This may become a new ritual for us!
First time dining at Winchell's. Let me say this, I will be back. The food was fresh and flavorful. I had the Gourmet chopped burger and it was seasoned so well. We will definitely be back to try more menu items.
