We were in town for the bourbon trail, but I tend to rely on Yelp and Google reviews to help me find places to eat. Y'all did not let me down! The pizza was absolutely amazing, with fresh toppings, and just the perfect crust. Then on the bottom, with a little poof crust at the edges. I was greeted by Kayla, who is very friendly and easily recognized I had never been in before, lol! She walked me through how to order, and was just very kind. We tried the carnivore, because who doesn't love an all meat pizza? There's plenty of picnic tables for seating, and there's also a really pretty outdoor area where they have flowers and more tables. I will 100% return when back in the area in the fall, and I highly recommend you stop in and give them a try. We saw some people getting wings as we were finishing up, and those looked amazing too!

Came in here after a distillery tour & I had an unforgettable meal at this farm‑to‑table pizza…read morespot. Every ingredient tasted unbelievably fresh! You could literally see and taste the bright tomato in the sauce, and the crust had that perfect char that only comes from real care. I ordered the gluten‑free crust and was blown away by how good it was; crisp, flavorful, and easily one of the best I've had anywhere. The whole market felt warm and welcoming. Everyone working there was knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely excited to share information about the ingredients and process. I also tried a kale salad so fresh and crunchy it could have passed for romaine, and a kombucha that tied the whole meal together. I'll be thinking about this place long after I'm back home in California. Overall a very well constructed and cozy establishment.

Our coffees took a bit to show up but all were pleased with what they got. Food came out relatively quickly and Zoey got a scone which she loved, nicely warmed and delish. Teresa got the Brie, lettuce and tomato sandwich and she loved that too. I was less fortunate as my breakfast bowl arrived cold. The potatoes were tasty and the whole bowl presented well, but it was stone cold. When I mentioned this to folks at the desk they said 'thank you.' I took a Star. We ordered some of their bread pudding and a slice of carrot cake to go. The bourbon bread pudding was fabulous and the carrot cake was very good, but clearly had been left out as it was dry, not the moist goodness you'd expect. All said a mediocre first experience so we'll likely give them another try at some point.

I'm sure that's a feature and not a flaw of beer lovers. I got what they recommended and found it to be fine. The martini was not dirty enough for my wife, but I guess that is a subjective thing. For the meal I went with the NY Strip for $26 and she got shrimp and grits for $20. I found the steak to be over cooked and under seasoned. My wife, however, LOVED the ship and grits. She orders this dish a lot at different places and thought this was one of the best she has had. The service was good. The food arrived super quickly. The vibe is casual all the way. If you are a craft beer lover this place should be on your short list. Everyone else is a maybe. I was going to give 3 stars but my loved her dish so much I gave them a 4 star rating.

Unfortunately, we were sat at a table in the very center of the dining room, which was also the very center of the flow between the rest of the restaurant and the kitchen. Our waiter, a young tall guy whose name I forget was great! He came across as being very nonchalant but the entire time we were there we never saw the man stop moving. I was very impressed. The food was fine. It was ably cooked. We both did enjoy our meals. The open kitchen is a cool concept, but when you're 30 feet away from it some cache' is lost. Everything was clean. Everything was orderly and in good repair. There really was nothing to complain about. Definitely this place is worth giving a try. It's worth the money and you may have a much more memorable experience than I.

Overall, this was a decent place to grab a bite to eat, but nothing particularly memorable…read more The restaurant could definitely use a little TLC. The menus were sticky, the tables were wobbly, and some weren't even level. Not exactly deal-breakers, but little things like that make a difference in the overall dining experience. On the positive side, the service was good. The food was okay--not bad by any means, but nothing that would have me making a point to come back. Now, let's talk about the beer situation. They proudly display a Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale sign, yet they don't actually serve Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale! To add insult to injury, they were also out of West Sixth IPA when we visited on a Friday night. And as those of you who've read my reviews before already know, "Any restaurant that serves Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale automatically gets an extra star in my book!" Unfortunately, no bonus star here! All in all, it's a solid enough spot if you're hungry and looking for somewhere to eat. But with so many other options in Frankfort, this one probably won't make my list of places to revisit.

My wife and I were pretty excited about a new experience and a fun lunch. The place was disappointing to say the least. The servers weren't really friendly or outgoing. The value was severely lacking- a reported 5 ounce burger (looked small) and literally about 10 crinkle cut fries, a 12 ounce drink served in styrofoam and a vanilla malt to go costs us about $50. I tried to say thank you to the server on my way out but she was busy having a loud conversation with another employee and didn't notice me. There is outdoor seating on picnic tables. The menu has a variety of sandwiches like cod fish and a fried bologna plate. But most of the menu was different burgers with cute names. The web said they served breakfast all day, there was no breakfast menu on the table and we didn't ask. All in all I'm glad I went to satisfy my curiosity but I would not seriously recommend this place to people visiting Frankfort. You would get a better deal and probably service at Hardee's.

From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm and welcoming. The staff provided great whiskey conversation and shared so much interesting history about the community and the distillery. It really made the tasting feel personal and special. We had the opportunity to sample an incredible lineup: * Weller 12 * Rip Van Winkle 10yr * Castle & Key Rye * Peerless Double Oak * Benson Valley Bourbon Every pour was smooth, flavorful, and clearly high quality. The pours were generous and the explanations for each one added so much depth. If you're into whiskey (or just good conversation and local history), HOC is a must-stop. We left smiling and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend! Thanks again to the team at HOC -- you turned a closed door into one of the highlights of our road trip!
