Didn't have the best experience with this taproom. I was in town visiting my family and we decided…read moreto go for drinks. My step mother experienced the rudest bartender, he was a man. My step mom explained that the beer tasted like vinegar and nicely tried to explain it was probably the end of the keg. The bartender then proceeded to get mad at her and said that it's a "mead" and that's why it tastes like that and so on and so on. Later when another member of my family went up to get a drink the bartender realized he was in the wrong and gave my family member a drink to give to my step mom, after realizing she was right and the keg was empty. Not even an apology. My drinks were fine, it was a nice beer but after what my family went through will not be returning.

Highly recommend! Can't wait to go back!

We decided to try The Pour House, but honestly, it was a pretty disappointing experience. Right off…read morethe bat, when we tried to order food, the bartender told us she'd have to check if the kitchen was still taking orders since they "close at 9." It was only 8:40, and when my husband asked why, she gave him a pretty sharp look before finally coming back and taking our order. We both got bacon cheeseburgers with fries. The fries were fine, but the burgers were terrible -- dry, completely lacking flavor, and clearly unseasoned. I just don't understand why bars bother offering food if they aren't going to put any effort into making it decent. We each only managed to eat half of our burgers, which is rare for us. On top of that, service was lacking. Our server never checked back on us, and we had to walk up to the bar just to flag someone down. Meanwhile, the bartenders were having the loudest time in the whole place, yelling and laughing amongst themselves louder than any of the actual customers. Overall, the vibe was off, the food was bad, and the service wasn't much better. We won't be going back.

Great bar that you can try all kinds of brews! They have several kinds available for purchase to take home too. Rob,the bartender, was absolutely hilarious! He made the experience that much better.

Very clean and truly a must stop if you're in the area. This was our last stop for the day and I wish we'd have stopped sooner, because we wouldn't have went anywhere else!

Got some great drinks and pretty okay food at this Lexington bar and grill. It turned out a lot…read morebetter than we expected to be honest. Kemp's is probably the best place to go eat in town it seems. A good reason is because there's not much else. The food is pretty average but there's some good things for adults and families. Chill atmosphere even at times when it's crowded. It's located in the middle of downtown or whatever you call it. There's not a whole lot else to go to for a meal. Certainly explains why it gets busy. People only have a few choices and this is one of these. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail. Whole lot of great stuff including whiskey. It's about $5 to get appetizers. We got the Chips And Salsa. Has a lot of greasy fried things like wings and other meats. The menu is pretty standard as far as fried stuff. Has a lot of the basics. It's closed Sundays. That's pretty strange for them to lose out on all that revenue on weekends.

Fantastic local pub in downtown Lexington, Illinois. We selected this location as it already had…read moregreat reviews and was very close to the northeast trailhead of the "Constitution Trail" of the Bloomington/Normal area. The staff here was fabulous with a special shout-out to John. What I found particularly impressive was the amazing selection of craft brews for a small town. The staff was particularly knowledgeable about both the selection and even the breweries that supplied them! I even found some of my favorite and uncommon Chicagoland brews, although I selected some excellent brews from the Bloomington/Normal area. ( Drink local!) Food was wonderful and quickly delivered. I gave five stars on food because it is top quality relative to pubs in general. The Blue Cheese burger was great. I sampled the butterflied pork chop sandwich of the other meal we had and that was a standout! Ambiance is nice as if fitting a local pub in an older downtown building. One notable feature is the walls and ceiling are covered in banners and flags of various kinds which dramatically limits the amount of background noise that would normally be in such a building. There is also a nice outdoor beer garden. This local establishment is well worth the extra minutes off Interstate 55. Also highly recommended to cycling who travel out to the northeast terminus of the trail!

The surrounding area is rich with natural beauty, but sparse with dining options, and we were happy to find a breakfast spot after a frigid morning stroll at Chautauqua Nature Reserve. I ordered biscuits and gravy with two eggs. The biscuits were fresh, the gravy flavorful, and my eggs perfect overeasies. My wife ordered a skillet of some sort, and darling, as a lifelong rule, I hate onions, but this was the first time in my life I've ever actually enjoyed onions. I shit you not. What are they doing in there? We're a transgender couple and were a smidge concerned about our safety dining in a tiny town dive bar, but Hialeah Club could not have been lovelier.
