Had the breakfast burrito with bacon. So good. Cheese grits sublime. Coffee was great! I'm used to restaurants having weak coffee. Not theirs! Definitely recommend for Sunday brunch!! read more

Food was delicious, service was excellent. Very nice quiet atmosphere, also an outside seating area.

Ate there today with my husband. Long wait but we had heard good things so we waited. What was supposed to be 45 minutes, was 1.5 hour wait. Ordered the Waffle with Bacon and spouse had Breakfast burrito. My waffle was not good. Tasted like bleach/doughy, not crisp at all. Bacon was low quality with very little meat. Spouse said burrito was mostly egg, and it was. Not a lot of sausage, onion, peppers, etc. to add flavor. His hashbrowns were very good, however. Crisp but not hard. I was disappointed bc we heard good things and it was packed. read more

Found this little gem online while looking for a breakfast place near our hotel. Honestly, it is tucked back out of the way so you would not find it unless you were specifically looking for it! Everyone was very welcoming. Special of the morning was french toast with bacon or sausage. It was very good. My only comment was it could have been a little hotter, but other than that no complaints. My husband ordered the 2-2-2 and his eggs were cooked exactly as ordered. I would visit again when we are in the Lexington area. read more

Tack House Pub - Inside restaurant. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

They know what they do well and execute every time. Nice to have a local spot that always meets expectations.

We went here on a whim for breakfast. Just poking around Yelp looking for something different and stumbled upon this place. It's rather small in the inside which I found nice, but during peak church brunch times could be a tough one to manage. But, in the summer they do have twice the seating with their patio. We both ended up getting the Belgian waffles which were wonderful. The waffles were light and fluffy and the toppings of strawberries were fresh. We also had some of their mixed coffee which also was good. The price of the place for breakfast was on par with any of the breakfast around. What really did it for me was that we could have a nice breakfast and actually talk to each other since it wasn't as loud as the other places in town. Also, the service here really was exemplary. I will definitely be back. read more

Tack House Pub - Belgian waffles! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

My husband took me here for brunch recently. I got the Belgian Waffles, and he got an omelet plate with cheese grits. I'm always disappointed in Belgian Waffles here in the States. The ones I've had in Korea have almost a caramelized outside that's crunchy and a fluffy inside. But these were alright! Let's talk about their grits. The best grits I've ever tried! So creamy and smooth! So flavorful! Whenever you visit, get them, please. Even if you don't like grits! I like this place. It's one of the closer brunch places to where we live, and that's fine with me! It's quaint, has good food, and friendly service! read more

Have enjoyed breakfast here numerous times and Im in hopes people will support then and get curbside/carryout from them while these restriction are still in place for restaurants until they are somewhat eased after Dec. 14th. Anyway ate her today and all three of us had breakfast food as right now I believe that is all they are doing? That is what we wanted anyway, but typically they do sandwiches etc. Anyway two of us has create your own omelettes and they came with great breakfast potatoes and toast and were excellent. The other member of out party had chocolate chip pancakes with a side of bacon and she loved them!! Service was super friendly and great and Im hoping all of these great non chain restaurants pull through!! They have been put through a tornado. Hopefully people are trying to support these type of eateries. We really try to when possible. read more

Always a good place to have brunch on the weekend. The inside is small so on the weekends there seems to always be a small wait. The have outside seating when the weather is a little warmer. They always have a special and today's was an egg sandwich on a croissant with bacon , pepper jack cheese and banana peppers with a side of cheese grits. They have a specialty coffee menu as well as a few alcoholic beverages. The tack house is a small quaint place that's great to start your morning. They have a lunch menu as well and I hope to try that some day. They do have high chairs and a kids menu. read more

We ended up here by happenstance and it was a lovely place. The waitress was nice and the food was good. I forgot to take a picture of my food. read more

My husband and I tried Tack House Pub out this past weekend and we really loved it. We came in on a cold, wet Saturday morning and it had the perfect cozy feel inside. The inside was intimate and cute. We had an AMAZING breakfast!! I got a waffle with chocolate chips on it and a side of sausage. I was craving waffles and this one did not disappoint! I think the prices were relatively inexpensive for a little place like this! The waitress was so sweet and very attentive to us and our order. We live all the way on the other side of town but the drive won't hinder us from going!! We are in love with Tack House Pub!! read more

We went here for Sunday breakfast last weekend - we arrived just before a big rush (9am-ish). Not sure what other mornings are like, but the tables were filled after 9, though there didn't seem to be much of a wait. The outside tables also filled quickly as it was a nice fall morning. The staff was very friendly and the food was great - the portions were a decent size but not too big. Though they have all the staples of a diner, there were a few signature items that I was looking forward to trying - one was the cinnamon bun that had homemade bourbon icing. I'm not a huge fan of bourbon, much less on Sunday morning, but I didn't want to pass up the opportunity. It was excellent - I wholeheartedly recommend it - and though I wish it had been a bigger bun, it's probably good that it wasn't. My coffee cup never got below half before one of several waitresses came by to check on it, and the scrambled eggs were cooked just right. Can't speak for the other meals they serve, but breakfast is tasty and not too expensive. read more

Tack House Pub - Homemade cinnamon bun with bourbon icing - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I feel like this place has slipped a bit since going to dinner service.I used to frequent here a lot more often than I have lately for two reasons, one the bourbon bun was warmed in microwave and very doughy in the center, and the ingredients on the rest of the order seem to be getting of a lesser quality than previously. The service is still great and the place is still the same as when it was called the coffee pub. But the biggest complaint is the seating issues on busy days, they now take your phone number and call you when a table is ready, which is a problem when you are standing there and see empty tables and get told we are waiting for someone to arrive that gave thier number and left in thier car to do something and return. We left a few days that way... read more

Tack House Pub - Formerly the coffee pub.... - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Went here to brunch with my wife. We got there right at 11 so they had just switched to the lunch menu. I was going there hoping for breakfast but was pleasantly surprised by the BLTT. Definitely recommend the BLTT! That's actually what my wife ordered while I had the two eggs, bacon, sourdough toast, and cheese grits. My order was good but nothing special. The coffee was a unique blend from Lexington tea and coffee, which I had about 3 cups of. Atmosphere was quaint and laden with equestrian decorations. Dinning area was small and they were very busy, but service was efficient and friendly. Great recommend overall, though I want to actually go back for breakfast menu. read more

Tack House Pub - Two eggs, bacon, sourdough toast, and cheese grits. Great straightforward cheese grits! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Atmosphere: very quaint Service: superb Variety offered: average, no eggs Benedict Food: eggs, great over easy, potatoes good, bacon, average thin not meaty Price: reasonable Receipt: a breath of fresh air; thank you for the added scripture. Always great to see someone not blinded by Satan and knows absolute Truth! Amen! Thank you Jesus! I would recommend this place! read more

This place was a surprise gem on a trip to Lexington for us. We wanted something a little different for breakfast, found this place, and left happier than we ever imagined we would. It's really small, and that is part of the appeal. It wasn't terribly busy, but seemed steady, on a Friday morning. The server was very prompt and friendly. The coffee was terrific and cups were frequently filled. I got the chicken tacos which were a great change from the normal sausage and egg breakfast for me. Not too spicy and a great way to start my day. Price was just right for the quality of food, service, and atmosphere. This is now a staple for me any morning I want breakfast on a trip in Lexington. read more

Such a cool little place. Reading the history of the building on the menu was very interesting. They've done a great job to try and keep the history of the building intact. Our family loved each of our breakfast plates including the bourbon cinnamon roll to start! We will definitely be back the next time we are in Lexington! read more

This is absolutely one of my favorite little places to go for breakfast or a quiet dinner. Originally known to serve only breakfast, they have opened their menu to dinner, and added liquor drinks to the menu. I recommend any of their menu items. Their pasta items are to die for! read more

We did supper there last night for the first time and it was quite phenomenal. Shrimp and Cheese Grits were quite tasty and the special of the night was a wonderfully flavorful Fish and Chips. Not sure what my favorite of the two would have been but would definitely order either one on a repeat visit. We will be returning for their supper!!! read more

One of my favorite brunch spots in town! It has a definite KY atmoshpere and is a wonderful spot to bring out of town guests. I would recommend the 2-2-2 which has 2 eggs any style, 2 pancakes, and 2 pieces of bacon or sausage. It is a tasty breakfast that provides a great start to any morning/afternoon. The dining area is on the smaller side, so there is typically a bit of a wait on the weekends. It is well worth it though!! read more

We tried the coffee pub for lunch the other day and were disappointed how long it took to get our meals. The restaurant only had 4 tables to serve. I ordered The prime rib sandwich and it was dry and had no flavor or season. My mom had the asparagus frittata which was pretty good. The best part of our experience was our server Jill. She was very friendly and constantly checked on us despite the food delay in the kitchen. read more

Great atmosphere and breakfast was amazing! We were able to sit outside and enjoy breakfast and mimosas, the special was an egg frittata and it was perfect. We also tried the Tack House Brown, which was delicious. read more

Judging by where google maps was taking me, I thought this was going to be a dingy hole in the wall (which would have also been cool). Turns out, it was a clean, formidable- albeit small- little brunch establishment with a surprisingly rich history. I got the Hot Brown, which wasn't greasy, had excellent sauce and overall composition. Also tried their Kentucky Mule, which I wish they'd used lime juice rather than lemon. I was most impressed with the quality of the food, how quickly we got seated and served, and the grassroots atmosphere. Only downside is that it's small inside, and I could see the waitlist getting to be pretty long. Also their beer selection wasn't too wide. read more

Came here on a Sunday morning, a little after 10am. We were seated in about 5minutes and placed our order just a few minutes after that. Got our drinks within 2min of ordering. Our food arrived 14 minutes later. The food is excellent. here's what you need to know. Inside, this place only seats 44 people (assuming all tables are full, i counted seats). If you come here on a weekend morning, it's busy and you'll have to wait. in my experience, the earlier you arrive, the better. Sundays get busy a little later because i think people are at church. So that's a good time to come, if you're heathens like us. Otherwise, you'll probably have to wait but they do offer coffee on the porch while you wait. My favorite is the Breakfast Burrito. The OJ is fresh-squeezed and I love they offer flavored creamers for your coffee. read more

Fantastic breakfast with consistently good and piping hot coffee golf. I recommend their pancakes or breakfast burrito if you're in the mood to have a less healthy meal. Never been disappointed here! There's frequently a morning rush but tables cycle quickly so stick it out, you won't be disappointed. read more

Adorable little restaurant with a solid breakfast/ brunch menu. Took my parents when they were in town and they loved the fancy coffees and delicious French toast. They recently opened for dinner as well and serve up some gigantic and yummy salads which is hard to find in Lexington. Be prepared to wait on Saturdays unless you come early, it's a popular spot with minimal seating. Now that the weather is warmer I'm excited to try out the patio. Will be regulars for sure. read more

Hard to believe that I haven't reviewed Coffee Pub yet! I really like this place. Always fresh, tasty food with amazing service. Our church staff eat here often. The coffee is very nice, the lunch menu has enough choices to keep things interesting without going overboard and their breakfast items are super tasty. The ambience is very relaxing and feels "home-y" to me. Probably because the staff is always welcoming and very friendly. Their always smiling and making sure your coffee mug is full. If you're looking for a new [local] breakfast/brunch place in Lexington. We love supporting good, local business and this is one to add to your list. read more

OMG... Awesome! Rated this place for exactly what it is... A perfect coffee and lunch place! The chicken salad sandwich was perfect derby style chicken salad! I asked about the cheese grits and my server gave me a sample! Definitely on my must get list! Excellent service! read more

This little joint is so cute! It's small, so get there early on weekends, but I think it'll be worth it. I personally got the waffle which honestly wasnt very good. They tasted like a weird mix of friend dough and Angel food cake. I tried some of my family's food, though and it was delicious! I think they might just be better at the savory foods. The other stuff was tasty enough that I can ignore the iffy waffle. The service was quick and nice! They have so many exciting coffee options to try, too. I'd definitely like to come back and try some other food and drink options. read more

Grrrrreeeaaat!!! Our little family stopped by this spot one morning desperately hungry! We were so excited to see options for both adults - one a vegetarian, one a sausage gravy loving carnivore and one nugget child who loves it all! Sausage gravy and biscuits reported to be a big hit, breakfast burrito was great - and the little one ate everything on her plate. People were friendly and helpful!! New fave. read more

Great hospitality! There's limited seating for a wait for rainy days, so they offer to leave your number so you can wait in your car. Our server was friendly, food was great. No booze on Sundays. read more

The staff here is tremendously friendly. Every person who passed me greeted me. The breakfast tacos were good and plenty of food for the price. They have indoor and outdoor seating a good stop on a Sunday morning. read more

The Belgian waffle was delicious . They'll have to put a lot more work into their "soon to be famous corned beef hash" if they really do intend to reach such a status. It was ok but not really hash, more like diced fried potatoes and a bit of corned beef sprinkled over it. The coffee was congenial . Get the waffle ( but don't let me tell you what to do. ) read more

Good food and the service is finally improving. I love the atmosphere so I'll make do. I suggest their Giacomo dish for breakfast. It's a good size and tasty meal. read more

The food and coffee at coffee pub are both pretty good. I've gotten the breakfast burrito and the Giacomo which were both really good. The specialty coffees they have are also excellent and I've tried the almond joy and enjoyed it. read more

Tack House Pub - Giacomo - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I consider this place a hidden gem in Lexington. It's a quaint little restaurant that's tucked away off Harrodsburg Rd. that has consistently great food and great service. I have only been eating here for years but always on the weekends and Saturdays and Sundays they serve only breakfast (open til 2pm). I love the Chicken Soft Tacos with a side of cheese grits. Their grits are super creamy and delicious! read more

Tack House Pub - Chicken soft tacos with egg whites and cheese grits. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

Such a great brunch spot! Should have called ahead because we waited for 20 minutes but boy was it worth it. The Bloody Mary had me licking the spiced rim. It has ginger liquor in it which gives it an extra something special! I highly recommend the bourbon cinnamon roll which I could have eaten three of! 10/10 would recommend. read more

Decor is country kitsch in this tiny coffee house/restaurant. On my first visit, the food quality was extremely average. My ham and cheddar omelet was small, overcooked and dried out. The cheddar was tasteless. The potatoes seemed like the frozen variety you could buy at the grocery store. Total bill for the omelet and OJ was $13 ($15 with tip). It was maybe worth half that. read more

Great brunch spot in a unique setting. Food and coffee were amazing and creates lick the plate clean situations.

Good place for coffee and breakfast- sat inside so coffee cup was always full, good service. Ordered the War Admiral breakfast and wasn't disappointed, a scramble of eggs, meat, cheese and potatoes. On the way out I spotted some breakfast taco plates that looked really good too- maybe next time! read more
