They have a great menu including seasonal offerings. I believe the drink I got was called the "Sweet Madeline," it was a lavender cookie cold brew and absolutely delicious. I can't stop thinking about it. They have booths offering a variety of wares from local vendors - candles, goat milk soap, trendy clothing, jewelry, Christian books, trucker hats, so fun to browse the shop while sipping delicious coffee. Great place for gift shopping.

It was mostly ice and in the tiniest glass I've ever seen. I tipped $2 and paid before my drink was given to me. I let the bartenders know I thought $15 was outrageous for the size and the amount of ice. They told me there was nothing they could do and that's how the drink is made. That's fair but I didn't appreciate them giving me dirty looks from the bar while we were eating. I won't be coming back and it's a shame. ​

It wasn't too busy while we were there, but there is plenty of standing room and a few tables/places to sit at. I tried the iced honey lavender matcha... so delicious!!! I also love their menu of customizable sparkling waters and lemonades. They had sugar free syrups as well. The pistachio muffin was super tasty, I almost wanted another one. Service was great and everyone was sweet. I believe the owner was there and she was very helpful and nice to talk to as well. Wish we lived closer because we definitely loved this place and would love to go back. Edit: I did want to mention that some of the electrical outlets don't work, in case you plan on bringing a laptop. But they are aware of this and I'm sure it will be resolved eventually.

The ladies at the counter are very sweet an attentive. Each drink made to order has been perfect! Can't go wrong with the seasonal flavors either.

I needed a good place to study while eating some delicious food and drinking coffee and found The Factory.

The waffle is crispy but soft and the coffee is just a great, smooth frappe treat!! The staff are so friendly, the place is cutely decorated and they play uplifting Christian. You will leave feeling amazing!!

It's like there isn't any good ventilation or something. I can't swing it. This most recent visit I had stopped prior to closing and ordered a coffee. I was inside no more than 3-5 minutes and the whole rest of the day my clothing reeked of their shop. I would love to come back with friends, especially on delay-days which we will be having soon I imagine, but to avoid smelling like their place all day, I will have to pass. The coffee is good, though. Their menu has tons to choose from and there is something for everyone!

My friend had a cinnamon crunch bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese, and said it was delicious! We ate every bite! It was also fast service! Four of us were able to place orders, eat, socialize, and get out in less than an hour. Super speedy! Minus one star because it is so smoky inside. They have a grill area where they cook, which is fine, but there is no hood/ventilation and so when they grill anything, the smoke just goes out into the restaurant. The four of us who ate there smelled like bacon smoke the entire afternoon. Will continue to eat from here, just maybe not inside until the ventilation sees an improvement.

I like semi-sweet to sweet and they do have a sweet one but I was bummed that they were out of it. I got the flight so I could try 5 different ciders. They were all good. I liked the ginger one, the blueberry lemon, and the original. Their seasonal cider was Cheerwine cider and that was good too. They were out of 2 ciders but they had those available in cans so we bought them so we can try them at home! The bartenders are very friendly and both inside and outside are very spacious. Most of the outdoor seating section is under the roof so you get shade which I like. We'll take our puppies with us the next time!

She remembered hearing that this is a beloved local donut shop, so of course we had to check it out. Free street parking was easy to find nearby, which is always a plus. When we walked in, the shop was quiet, and a young lady came out from the back to help us. We asked a few questions about what was available, but unfortunately, the interaction felt a little rushed--as though our curiosity was an inconvenience. We were genuinely interested in learning more about Red's history and offerings, so that part was a bit disappointing. On the bright side, the donuts themselves did not disappoint. My wife chose the apple fritter, which she loved--it was flavorful and fresh. I went with the donut holes, which were light, sweet, and tasty. The shop itself has a cute, small-town charm that adds to the experience. Overall, the donuts were yummy and the location is great, but the customer service could be warmer to match the reputation and nostalgia that surrounds Red's. We'd still encourage donut lovers to stop by for a sweet treat--especially if you're exploring downtown Lexington.

The smells from the sidewalk are enough to get anyone's attention, and we weren't surprised to find a line. They kept the line moving and when we got to the front we had a tough choice to make. I got the chocolate frosted with chocolate chips, it was fluffy, just the right amount of sweet, and hit the spot perfectly! Staff were friendly and helpful, and we enjoyed our mid morning treat. Prices were very reasonable. I definitely plan to stop in again and highly recommend!
