Had a wonderful brunch burger and sweet potato fries. The fried banana peppers are a must have and the hush puppies are excellent. No fish this trip, but it's been great on previous visits.

I had the BEST fried banana peppers I have ever had last night! I am partial to Hall's on the River but these were better. Must try!

Located next to a cool craft brewery in downtown Lexington KY, this restaurant offers great food along with a wide choice of good local beers you can order in house when you dine in. I ordered the fish and chips which is excellent-moist, flaky not dry. The cod was fresh with a deep golden crispy crust cooked using the brewery’s signature west 6th beer batter. The cold slaw was not overly sweet yet crunchy and refreshing. The bite sized hush puppies were crispy and tasty too.
