I was told their specialty was their Kentucky Burgoo so of course that's what I had to get. Burgoo is the traditional stew of Kentucky. It's filled with slow cooked shredded beef, potatoes, and veggies. This was the first time I have ever had Burgoo but I'm sure it will not be my last since it was very good and filling. For sure a hearty stew. I also got to try the The Mash House which is their version of a Pimento Cheese Sandwich. They to not skim on the Pimento Cheese either. Now was it the best Pimento Cheese I have ever had? No but was still a tasty sandwich. The Small Batch which is a Beef Brisket sandwich was also good. Quality brisket with some nice fatty pieces mixed in there as well. Good move on them too using sliced fatty brisket because everyone knows that the best way to do it. If anyone says otherwise they are wrong. For sure a great please to grab lunch at the distillery.

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.

The distillation aromas in the air are intoxicating. We arranged a tour of the facility in combination with a river cruise on the Kentucky River. We signed in for our tour early, so we could shop in the distillery gift shop. I spent several hundred dollars in the gift shop buying special bourbons that you can only purchase at the distillery. I even bought Buffalo Trace dog treats. Plan at least an hour for shopping as lines are long. Fred was our tour guide. Fred was knowledgeable, humorous, interesting and passionate about Buffalo Trace. We learned the history of the distillery, saw how barrels are made, transported and stored and saw the bottling process for the Blanton bourbons. We concluded our tour with a tasting of four bourbons and a sample Kentucky Bourbon Ball. Unfortunately, the tasting was a bit rushed for us. The bourbons were good and I would have liked to make additional purchases after the tasting, but we were not able to because of the timeline for the river cruise. Parking is free. The line to check ids is long but moves quickly. There are restrooms available. I'm told dogs and kids are welcome with some restrictions, but I didn't see any. The tour of Buffalo Trace should be on every bourbon drinker or history buff's bucket list. I want to go back.

Everything was as expected, but looking at the options if you want more of a traditional sub sandwich I would recommend going for the Italian or Turkey as those come with lettuce/tomato, extras etc.

Our server was the sweetest gal, handling everything herself from orders to bartending to serving and clearing tables, she never missed a beat. We're in bourbon country so of course ordered the Old Fashioned and the Manhattan, both were superb and came out quickly. We expected to wait just a bit for our meals but happily they came out quickly as well. Hubby's hot chicken sandwich was amazing with just the right amount of heat and condiments. I felt so lucky to get gluten free chicken tenders, I had very little expectations, I was just so happy to see them! They were phenomenal! If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely be back and I highly recommend them to anybody looking for a 5 star stop in downtown Frankfort.

Even worried about the lovely Mrs sitting at the table right in front of the door so promised her she'd move us as soon as another table became available. Speaking of, seating is limited.

The Mrs orders French toast and I ordered the big breakfast with just about everything you can think of for breakfast. Kudos to the kitchen staff for their speediness and our server for getting it to us still steaming. Food was incredibly tasty. We would for sure go back when we come back to town. And as always, we love supporting the local mom and pops. Everyone should.
