My lady found this place and thought it'd be a good lunch spot on our way back from Augusta, GA…read more She was certainly right because we enjoyed everything. The place itself looks like an old Irish pub inside and out. The service was excellent and the food was very good. Not to mention the beer was great too. You order at the bar and they bring it to you when it's ready. Here's what we got: -Fiction red blend -Anomaly saison -Peant Butter Publican peanut butter brown ale -Barbecued carrots -Fish & chips We hardly waited long at all before everything was ready. The fish was HUGE and pretty tasty. My lady loved the carrots especially. We would certainly stop by here again.

I can't wait to be back in the area to stop in and see Abdula at the bar. He was awesome to chat with and I hope to do so again.

Had an absolutely great time at Blue Stallion Brewing Co. This place is a whole vibe…read more First of all, the beer menu? Impressive. There's something for everyone, whether you're a "let me analyze the hops" person or a "just give me something cold and delicious" person. Everything we tried was solid, and it's clear they know what they're doing. The venue itself is super cool. Family friendly, relaxed, not pretentious, and somehow feels both lively and laid-back at the same time. The kind of place where you can hang out for one drink and accidentally stay for three. Service was great: friendly, fast, and helpful without hovering. Exactly what you want when you're trying to responsibly sample your way through a tap list. Parking is excellent. Stress-free. No parallel parking gymnastics. No circling the block questioning your life choices. Just... parking. Beautiful. They also had a pop-up event featuring local artists, which was awesome. Apparently they host things like that pretty regularly, and I love that they're supporting local small businesses. Nothing pairs better with a craft beer than community spirit. They offer pizza, which we didn't try this time, but it looked and smelled incredible. Great beer, cool atmosphere, excellent service, strong community vibes, and parking that doesn't make you cry. 10/10, will absolutely be back.

I've visited this place several times before and usually had a great experience, so this visit was…read morehonestly shocking. Apparently the restaurant has decided to try out a new concept called "Fine Dining: Survivor Edition." The tables sat covered in dirty dishes long enough to qualify as permanent decor, and our food took so long I considered filing a missing persons report. When it finally arrived, it was cold. Not "could use a quick reheat" cold -- I mean "the marinara sauce had the temperature and emotional warmth of an iceberg" cold. The loaded potatoes were overcooked with about three toppings sprinkled on top like they were rationing cheese during wartime. The pizza? Floppy, bland, and somehow both soggy and dry at the same time. Truly impressive. And the chicken parmesan sandwich was just confusing. The bread was actually great, which made it even sadder that the chicken itself was dry and somehow NOT fried. A chicken parmesan sandwich without crispy chicken feels like someone forgot the assignment halfway through. The restaurant may be dog friendly, but after sniffing the leftovers we brought home, even the dogs seemed personally offended. This place used to be one of my favorites, which makes this even more disappointing. Hoping this was just an off night because right now the quality has left the building faster than our server did.

This place is AHHH-MAZING! Honestly, it might be the best burger I've had since moving to Kentucky…read more The vibe is such a cool mix--part dive bar, part nostalgic hangout. It feels like the kind of "hopping" bar you imagined as a kid, with colored lights, loud energy, and retro knickknacks that look straight out of your grandparents' basement bar in 1986 in Milwaukee. It somehow hits the perfect balance between gritty and fun. And the food? Incredible. Everything tastes fresh and made with real ingredients. The pickles were on point, the burgers were outstanding, and the fries were loaded with toppings--honestly more toppings than fries--and I'm not mad about it at all. My new fave spot when I visit.
