The Brick and Bourbon is a fun spot for tourists and locals alike to enjoy drinks all day until the…read morelate hours of the night. Lots of bourbon trailers spend time hanging out with locals and getting rare bourbon you can only get in Frankfort, KY. This is the oldest bar in Frankfort and has an impressive collection of bourbon brands, and even the rarest of the rare- Pappy Van Winkle collection. They also have bar food and the best chicken wings in town. I like the Bourbon Glaze and Garlic Parmesan wings. The bar has been completely remodeled with nice clean bathrooms and new staff. The new workers seem to love their job and enjoy sharing local bourbon lore with the out of towners. I like to watch movies on the big tvs and sometimes they put on old shows to watch at the customer's request. There's pool that seems very popular and a touch tunes that's always playing the hits.

Well sitting here waiting for game 1 of the NHL finals to start…read more The people running this place have all been really nice, efficient and attentive. This place is a little different for a sports bar, but in a decent way, chill and fancier vibe than a normal sports bar. It's has an open area but with multiple areas /room to escape and converse if needed. Two bars and couches in front of a biggest TV in bar I believe. I had a burger and fries, burger was very good, when I say a good burger, it alone was worth the visit, fries were fries, I just don't like these type of fries. If in the area and looking for something decent you can't go wrong, well at least I didn't on this visit, will go back for sure. Hope you enjoy as I did.

What makes a 5-star bar? Heavy pours or creative cocktails combined with a little bit of ambiance?…read moreMaybe a witty bartender? The Center Bar is a real estate agent's dream: it offers location, location, location. It's situated right in the middle of the Derby City casino floor. You're gambling and thirsty? A cold drink is steps away. Want to watch pretty much any sport on TV? You can get that, too. I consumed what may be the saltiest Bloody Mary I've ever had. And I like salty. Thank goodness for the beer chaser. On reflection, I would stick to the bottled offerings. The bar's specialties read like an '80s child's dream: Bahama Mama, Tequilia Sunrise, Long Island Tea. They're appealing to the casino crowd who probably can't operate their smart phones but have somehow figured out the complicated video slots and don't mind the constant noise (you can't banter with the bartender if you can't hear them). If you want food at the Center Bar, you can order from Eats. You'll have to go get it yourself and eat out of plastic to-go containers, but again, you don't have to drive somewhere in the dark or rain. And bottles of water are free. Which will help dilute that salty Bloody Mary.

Haha. $4 margaritas and $3 shots on Tuesday! Heck yeah! They do not have food of any kind. (Maybe the should consider a popcorn machine or something) There is parking on side and around the street like 30 feet away. Nothing crazy. Service was really good. The owner was bartending this night. It's was pretty chill but definitely around 12-15+ people. Idk how the vibe may differ on busier days. Overall cute chill spot. Good drinks.

We started with the Wisconsin cheese curds, and they were delicious--definitely one of the better appetizers on the menu and something I'd order again. For our entrees, we had the steak quesadilla and the buffalo chicken tacos. The steak quesadilla wasn't anything fancy, but it had great flavor, and the steak was cooked perfectly. The buffalo chicken tacos were also tasty, although I wish there had been an option to order them with grilled chicken instead of fried. The staff is always friendly, and we've consistently had good service every time we've visited. If you're looking for a laid-back spot with good food, cold drinks, and a fun atmosphere for dinner or game day, Banners is definitely worth checking out.

I haven't eaten at a Buffalo Wild Wings in many years. I've had some of my offices order it. But…read morethis is the first time eating at this location. It's 2pm on a Tuesday afternoon. The waitress is helpful and friendly. I just wanted some wings and she helped me take advantage of the BOGO wings reward via the app. Very kind of her. As I wait for my order, I can't but help be annoyed by the music. It is way too loud for an empty restaurant. And the music choice is more for a party, not for 2pm on a Tuesday. I considered leaving but stuck it out. I'm still waiting on my order of wings. I didn't order anything else and the place isn't busy, so why are these taking so long? Still waiting. This is crazy. Well they finally arrived. I got the honey BQ. They were good but it wasn't the glaze I was expecting. Either way, they were good. They came out good and hot. I'm not sure I'd come back here, but for today, it was fine.

From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm and welcoming. The staff provided great whiskey conversation and shared so much interesting history about the community and the distillery. It really made the tasting feel personal and special. We had the opportunity to sample an incredible lineup: * Weller 12 * Rip Van Winkle 10yr * Castle & Key Rye * Peerless Double Oak * Benson Valley Bourbon Every pour was smooth, flavorful, and clearly high quality. The pours were generous and the explanations for each one added so much depth. If you're into whiskey (or just good conversation and local history), HOC is a must-stop. We left smiling and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend! Thanks again to the team at HOC -- you turned a closed door into one of the highlights of our road trip!
