This was so good! The hash brown casserole was to die for and the rest was great. The service was great as well. It is a quaint little spot and was great for a chill morning. read more

Croque madam is out of this world! Seriously the crusty topping and gravy puts it over the top!

Decent food but very overpriced. You'll be paying close to $20 for what is essentially a somewhat souped-up hotdog. I'd only give it 3 stars if it was below $10 because it's still nothing particularly impressive. They have a nice selection of bottled soda. read more

We went for brunch Saturday morning. The young lady at the front desk was very nice and welcoming. We did call ahead and got seated within 25 minutes arrival. Parking is a bit of a hassle. Our waiter was Max, he did a good job until the food came and then he realized the food was not up to par. We ordered Mac/ribs, pretzel breakfast sandwich and a short stack of pancakes. Food took a really long time to come which we would have hoped was due to cooking perfection. The Mac cheese was better than most from a restaurant but the ribs were certainly not fall of the bone tender, we could not chew them or even bite through the meat ( terrible cook or if they were even done?)$21 for a bowl of Mac/cheese really. The breakfast sandwich I believe tasted as it was intended but the jam I with bacon could not be chewed. I ordered a small stack of pancakes $8, they came cold and one was hard like it had sat for awhile, I did ask for something hot which Max did gladly change. We left the restaurant disappointed in our choices of choosing this restaurant and the food we ordered . People know we try a new restaurant every other week and often ask our opinion. Unfortunately there were too many negatives to recommend Mintons 760 to those we know. read more

You better come hungry! This place was a little find when our group wanted both lunch and breakfast on a Friday morning. While I couldn't stop eyeing the pancakes that were stacked a mile high, I went with lunch. It was BERY hard to choose but the Buffalo chicken hit the spot. My group also go an omelette which was HUGE! Again, come hungry. You're going to leave happy no matter what you order. read more

Quality, comfort and charm. My favorite hidden gem and my go-to for a cozy breakfast. Minton's has a friendly, rustic neighborhood vibe--both given its size and the candor of the staff--and the comfort food to match, but elevated. Many dishes are a take on Southern comfort or classics, innovated with quality and flavor to make the dish stand out. It's a small place, but I relish going in on a sleepy weekend morning and being greeted with a familiar smile and an "of course" when I order the Chorizo Breakfast Tacos once again. read more

Very dissapointed with my first visit to Mintons. The service we got was very mediocre for a slow Friday morning. One omelet was fair and the other was so raw it had to be sent back. And for $17 I think that there could be a side along with the unbuttered toast. But the WORST...No decaf coffee available! In a breakfast/brunch place? Not even available for the French press. Ridiculous! The menu is very interesting so I might try it again but not until they have decaf coffee. read more

I love this Lexington gem!!!! Keep in mind that it is a tiny place with both indoor and outdoor seating but if you go during a busy time, you will be waiting for a spot. Finding parking can also be a bit of a challenge but we tend to just park along the side. Also, note that this restaurant is dog friendly. Owners eat with their pets on the patio and there is a water bowl plus treats offered. If you aren't sure what to order, ask for a recommendation. They have yet to steer me wrong! Most recently, I've ordered savory french toast. The portions are generous and I was unable to finish them. If you prefer bacon cooked a certain way, be sure to let them know. I enjoy slightly chewy and firm, not crispy, and they did a great job. The employees are friendly and attentive. I wish I could give it higher than five stars! read more

Go hungry...be patient. There's a reason why there's always a line from where you order to the door...the food is amazing and plentiful. There are some traditional brunch dishes and then some creative dishes to choose from. Had the short stack and hash browns...so yummy. Others had the cinnamon bun pancakes and sweet potato hash. We left stuffed and happy. Food is cooked to order so...be patient...you will get your food and it will be so worth the wait! read more

This place has good service and is brimming with character. Huevos rancheros were excellent! Pancakes were solid. Would recommend coming early as there is limiting seating. read more

A tiny place with about 4 tables that can seat 20. Order at the counter and your food is served to you. Some very interesting options are available. Split the Savory French toast that has bacon, eggs and jam and the Chorizo Breakfast Tacos. Both were very good and enjoyed the salt and pepper chips that came with. The pancakes looked wonderful and others enjoyed breakfast sandwich and the chicken tacos. A nice place for breakfast or lunch if you are in the neighborhood. read more

This place is amazing!!!! I cannot believe we have lived in Lexington this long and not come here. Cute, and food to die for!!!!

Great place for breakfast. Constant stream of customers, and lots of regulars. You ain't be disappointed with the quality and amount of food! Home made hot sauces are awesome, too! read more

This place doesn't look very nice from outside but we gave it a chance and didn't regret it ! Food was really good and staff was very friendly read more

Food is really great and service is topnotch. It's small so you might have to wait or take it to go. If the weather is nice you can sit at the tables outside. read more

The food is sooo good. I am a picky eater and am not impressed by places much but this place very much impressed me. They combine ingredients to make unique recipes that blend together very well. My friend and I had the savory French toast, the breakfast on a bun, and the croque madam. The only negative is that the space is a bit small so it can get loud, which can be overwhelming, but there is the option to sit outside. read more

Minton's is a small cafe storefront located north of downtown off of Broadway. Whether it is the current pandemic "supply chain issues" or perhaps its popularity, Minton's found themselves struggling to keep items available on the menu. When we walked up for brunch they were out of the pancakes and we ended up getting the last Mac and Cheese and French Toast dishes. We're lucky we did though, everything was great. The Mac and Cheese was the best I had in town: gooey and buttery like it should be. The burger arrived fresh off the grill and hit the spot. I can understand why everyone call's Minton's a hidden gem but with the crowds, lines, and dishes flying off the shelves, I am not so sure it will be hidden for much longer. read more

Their food is amazing! The exterior is deceiving. Just a little old and unassuming building. So delicious! We traveled thru Lexington last year and discovered Minton's. Their Savory French Toast is like nothing I've ever tasted. Back home, 600 miles away, I tried making it myself. It was ok I guess, but not even close to Minton's. It's their tomato jam that makes all the difference in the world. When planning this year's road trip, we made sure to pass thru Lexington to enjoy breakfast at Minton's again. I asked if we could buy some tomato jam to take home. They filled up a jar for me to purchase. Thinking it may not last long I asked if I could get my next jar shipped. The gentleman at the counter said he's pretty sure they can do that and gave me the business card of the owner. Eat at Minton's! You'll be so glad you did! read more

Came by to try my favorite dish since I'd last visit. I missed the breakfast and lunch crowds. So, the atmosphere was more relaxed. I ordered a to-go order for my mother and I. She will be so surprised. Lunch on a Sunday. I'm a creature of habit and selected David's Burger (vegan option) and for my mom the Pulled Chicken Corn Cakes. Hope she like them. read more

I want to preface this review by saying that I have many friends who have wonderful experiences at Minton's, which is why I tried it out. It is my hope that this feedback is constructive and helps this small business to continue to grow. After all, most - if not all - of the problems I experienced at brunch today are fixable. CLEANLINESS: I understand that part of the charm of Minton's is its hole-in-the-wall vibe. However, there is a difference between hole-in-the-wall and dirty. When I visited today, 5 minutes after the restaurant had opened and presumably after the management had time to clean yesterday, I noticed the following: - A pastry display box by the register full of crumbs, but not any pastries - A nearly-full countertop trash can full of napkins, used coffee creamers, and other debris - Crumbs and grime on top of the coffee carafes - Dust and crumbs in the backs of almost every seat in the restaurant - Dirty windows and dusty windowsills - Fingerprints and grime on top of the syrup bottle - Sticky table with dried-on food on its edge TIMELINESS: When we ordered, there was only one party of three who had arrived ahead of us. Despite this, we and the other party waited about 30 minutes for our breakfast to prepared. Moreover, the hash brown casserole that was supposed to come with the biscuits and gravy still was not ready and came out 5 minutes after the rest of the food. FOOD: I got the seasonal french toast and my husband got the biscuits and gravy breakfast. Both were okay. The french toast had good flavor with delicious berries on top and a tasty filling but appeared to be made from sandwich bread. The gravy on the biscuits and gravy was a bit bland, and the scrambled eggs were overcooked. The coffee was not my favorite because it had an odd aftertaste and seemed overpriced, but the Minton's-branded pottery mugs were really cool. My biggest problem is that I found hairs in both my french toast and the hashbrown casserole. I was pretty much done at that point. This place has a lot of potential. The menu offerings are creative and I love the number of vegan/vegetarian options. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with all the things that went wrong today. I probably won't be back. read more

Equipped with her dear grandmother's flavorful recipes (several tasty items named after brother, Nick), Chef Ashley serves the kind of creative fare you'll never find in the everyday, chain restaurant. Her helpful mother, Sheila and other brother, Dan play major roles as well in the success of this fine establishment. With Ashley's inspired offerings, the family love is palatable. Menu items include juicy Pulled Jerk Chicken crunched with Corn Cakes and served with fresh slaw. The Sweet Potato Hash is to die for, not to mention the tantalizing Hot Ham, Apple & Brie Sandwich. Slice into the aromatic Josh Omelet and oh, there are so many more scrumptious choices including salads and black bean burger! Many tempting vegetarian and vegan options are also available. Virtually every savory treat is made in-house such as the killer jams and marmalades sold in recyclable, glass jars. Sample unique flavors like the unassuming Apple Butter (spiced with a secret ingredient - Red Hots!), delectably creamy Pumpkin Butter and zesty Peach Ginger Jam. Share some of your favorites to perk up dinner and needless to say, Mintons 760's prized selections make awesome gifts! Mintons seating is limited so get there early & enjoy! read more

Brunch here is a MUST. Took the family out one Sunday for a later brunch (around 1-ish). No crowd and ordered straight away at the counter. Very cute place. Very friendly and sweet staff. The food is cooked to order and unique to Lexington. Love the vibes here. Place is tiny so just make sure you are comfy sharing a corner with another party. That doesn't bother me and we were cool with people sitting next to us. read more

A really nice option in Lexington and vegan friendly options. It's unassuming from the outside but is cozy with great service. We got a big breakfast our last day visiting Lexington. All three dishes were good, not amazing, but very good. The things that made them a little lackluster for us came more down to taste preferences than a dish being poorly executed. That being said, I'd love to see them incorporate just egg into the vegan French toast as the milk only mixture they use isn't a great French toast alternative. Overall, we would happily go back. read more

My wife and I stopped in for brunch one recent Sunday and had delicious food, fast and friendly service from Sheila, and no wait to be seated. This visit was late November so it was chilly inside the little old building with 5 or 6 tables and some bar stools. In warmer months there are a few patio tables. Good home cooking here. I had fresh biscuits and gravy with sausage, eggs and hash browns all better than I've ever made for myself or had elsewhere. They were just scrambled eggs, but they tasted like more than that. My wife enjoyed her French Toast dish. I can see how they could get overwhelmed with a large crowd, but our service was flawless with just the six full tables. It ain't fancy, but the food is good and so are the people. Vegan options and healthy stuff can be found, of you're into that sort of thing. read more

Hubby and I were passing through Lexington and wanted to try something local. I found Minton's 760 on YELP and thought it would be a good spot to stop. When we got here it looked a little shady from the outside because it's not located in a great area so we almost didn't stop. Parking is inconvenient also but I am so so glad we parked and walked in. Very quaint atmosphere with a friendly greeting. Everything on the menu sounded delicious so it was hard to make a decision! Everything we got was delicious. There does not seem to be a wrong choice here except not to stop! Delish!! *4stars due to poor parking and limited seating. Everything else was perfectly wonderful! read more

Every other week my wife and I pick a new restaurant for brunch. This week it was Minton's 760. She had the huevos rancheros and I had the brunch on a bun.

Minton's 760 - Huevos Rancheros with pork - New American Near Me - Kentucky, Kentucky

Best breakfast in Lexington. They're a small restaurant with very limited seating and it's very likely you're going to have to wait a while for a table, with the added time to get food as they're very small, it is well worth the wait with the kind of breakfasts they offered. I've done several items on the menu, all breakfast focused and it's hard to chose. Last couple times have been the breakfast sandwich. I cannot stress enough that they do a breakfast that's more focused on making that meal more special than just giving you eggs, hash browns and some kinda bacon/sausage offering. The use of herbs, spices and ingredients tells you a lot about how they love to cook, and it shows. Gotta check it out and the while it can get expensive and the wait sucks, it's just so damn good. I like other spots in town, I love this one. read more

Every meal I've had here has been as good as the last and I always get friendly, welcomed service. Today I ordered the buffalo chicken dip grilled cheese, which came with some of their delicious chips. I would highly recommend! I've also ordered the Brunch on a bun, which has sausage, fried egg, pepper jack cheese, bacon jam on a toasted pretzel bun. Sooooo good! I'd also recommend the sweet potato hash, which included onions, sausage, egg and spinach. If you come here for lunch, prepare ahead of time as they aren't the quickest in the kitchen. But the food makes up for it every time. read more

Food Fun Adventure Saturday took Fat Man Reviews to Minton's at 760 in Lexington, KY. Minton's is a family owned restaurant offering small batch, handcrafted cuisine. We went for brunch and both opted for the Biscuits & Gravy Breakfast. The meal is served two eggs cooked your choice, hash brown casserole and your choice of bacon or sausage. I had mine with eggs over easy and bacon. The biscuits were medium-sized and on the first bite were kinda dry, but then when mixing in the gravy they drank up the gravy to make for a much better bite. The sausage gravy was thick but not lumpy and there was a proper amount of gravy served with the biscuits. This was surprising as usually I feel like there is not enough to go around. My only knock is that I feel the gravy could have used a touch of pepper to add a spicy bite. The bacon was a pretty thick cut and was cooked to a crispy perfection. The eggs were cooked spot on and were runny just like I like them. The hash browns were shredded and made with cheese. They were probably baked, but they got finished on the flat top or in a cast iron skillet to give it a nice crunch. The seasoning was good but maybe a bit light on the cheese, but overall the taste was really nice. My fiancé had hers with scrambled eggs and liked them. Minton's offers several sweet and savory options for breakfast and lunch, including a few vegan options. I overheard a few other patrons comments. One table got up and said that she never leaves reviews, but she will be leaving a good review today. Another dude ordered the seasonal special, Cinnamon Toast Crunch pancakes, and said "These are everything that I could have hoped that they would be." Another table ordered the Elvis Pancakes, which looked and smelled amazing. Minton's is a small joint with just a few tables inside or out, so there may be a wait as they make most things to order. To my knowledge they do not serve alcohol, as they only have canned drinks with sweet and unsweet tea. The Fat Man says that Minton's at 760 is Fat Man Approved and recommended. read more
