    Elvis Burger  sweet potato fries
    Peyton L.

    Tried Jack Brown's and had such a fun experience. I ordered the Elvis burger with peanut butter because I was super curious, and honestly it ended up being an amazing combo I totally wasn't expecting. The sweet potato fries were really good too, especially with the special sauce they gave us (kind of like a 1000 island vibe). We finished with the fried Oreos, and they were outstanding--crispy outside, gooey inside, everything you'd want in a dessert. Great spot all around. We had multiple servers checking in on us not one specific and all of them were outstanding and very helpful.

    Jack Brown's what can I say no matter which location you chose it always has the same things going for it. Great decor and amazing style with great music. The service is always on the spot and friendly. Now the food... one word from location to location... CONSISTENT... burgers are always fresh and full of flavor... must have for dessert get the deep fried OREOS.. OK WARNING get more then you think you will want more then one... enjoy!!!

    Crispy Fries

    Burgers are solid! Good burgers! Fries were crispy and the cheese sauce was good. Our waiter was cool, he suggested fried Oreos at the end. Yummm. I also had a Red Irish Ale. All thumbs up. I would go back. :)

    When I saw Lexington had a Jack Brown's, I knew that's where I was eating supper. This is my third Jack Brown's. I've been to. It's a consistent amazing experience at each location. I sat at the bar, ordered a beer and got my burger and fries on the way. Service was very good I get the original Jack burger as a double. And I get my fries all jacked up, which isn't on the menu. It's basically some loaded fries. Every company thing came out piping hot. It was amazing! An amazing place to grab a beer and a burger I can't wait to come back

    Fantastic atmosphere and yummy unique food. 11/10 for overall vibe and experience. If in Lexington you absolutely must stop in!

    Everything about this restaurant was spot on. The food came out fast & piping hot!! I tried the Elvis and it made my lip quiver with delight. The sweet potato fries were made by the GOAT of all french fry Friars you can't convince me otherwise. The Jack Brown's employees worked together as a team which was great to see and it looked like they were having fun while working!! I can't wait to go back to try something else on their menu! Also, loved their house sauce I wish I could take a bucketful home with me, delicious!

    I love the interior design and the burgers are fantastic! I went for the first time during Lexington Burger Week 2025 and they handle the lunch crowd very well. It's a cool place with great burgers and I look forward to going back.

    This is one of the best burgers I've ever had! I got the classic Jack and my coworker got the Elvis and both burgers were cooked perfectly and super juicy. They have a housemaid sauce that goes really well with their sweet potato fries. Service was excellent, and this is a great place to sit down in if you like a grungy punk rock type of feel. It also has a bar set up, inside if you wanted to sit there!

    Simple cheeseburger with bacon and side of fries

    One of the best burgers we had in a long time. Simple burger with absolutely amazing taste. Waitress was friendly and other staff assisted with no issues. Atmosphere is dim Lit, grunge rock, with wooden tables, and bar stools

    Great service. The burger was very tasty but somewhat small for a $12 burger. Needs liquor license as well. Great beer selection.

    Is this restaurant child-friendly?

    It's definitely a bar, first & foremost. That being said, I wouldn't hesitate to bring kids in during the day, late afternoon/early evening.

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.

    Gotta be honest with you...meh. I was a little disappointed…read more I'll start with the beers. I tried the Old Reliable and the White Girl Wasted. Not much flavor in either one. Hate to say it, as it's local, but I'd much rather knock back a Budweiser. And I never even drink Budweiser. Tried the Margherita pizza. I really liked the wood fired crust. Super tender with a wood fired flavor to it. But the pizza overall was quite bland. And, with tax, it was pushing twenty dollars. That's an Andrew Jackson for a pizza not much bigger than the size of my hand. They have to be pulling fifteen dollar margins on that small pizza. You're not gonna feed a family of four in here without it hurting. And that's just odd to me when we're talking pizza. I really like what they did to the place. Sharp looking inside. But the service ain't really that great, especially when you consider the prices. And it attracts a certain white collar, hipster clientele. Not that there's anything wrong with that but that's the feel. It's not a place you're going to go after you just plumbed a house. It just doesn't have that blue collar feel to it that some breweries do, and I kinda left wishing it did. But hey, what do I know? Place is popular. I hope it's successful in this expansion location. Before I went there, I asked my neighbor what he thought of it when I saw him walking back from the place with a box. He said, in two words, "It's expensive." That's it. All he told me. So, I'll leave you with that.
