    An old Texaco gas station, the place was abandoned for more than 30 years! Now is a totally awesome dog friendly bar! Lots of bourbon selection and cool cocktails as well as you fav beers! I'm weary of giving this 5 stars because I'm selfish and don't want it too crowded!

    Pretty cool concept the owners have, There is no competition in miles. The people around Masterson Station have a nice place to chill. They'd have about 5 beer on draft & several of there specialty mix drinks. Pool table & about 6 picnic tables out front. Warm weather it really nice, Once cold weather hits could be a little crowded inside? If you like the Break room, This place is kind of similar. Heard some say they have food trucked sometimes. Sunday afternoon they had none.

    Visited The Garage for the first time and plan to be back soon. The inside is currently closed for seating due to Covid but there are tons of outdoor seating options so you'll always be able to find a table. The prices are amazing for beer and about average for other drinks. They do need to update the online menu because it is a little misleading regarding pricing and specials.

    The cutest bar off the side of the road in Leestown. Decided to stop by after seeing the pretty lights from the road and because it's the only place open until 11pm in these times! The staff were friendly (bartender and security) and the space was great. They have several spread out picnic tables, a fire pit and are dog friendly too. 21+ only. We got drinks. The only reason for 4 stars instead of five was that I wish they had more beer options as they only had about 5-6 on tap. The gose was sweet yet refreshing. I ordered the 'Creeper' cocktail and was disappointed in how small the cup was for the price. The atmosphere makes this place worth checking out with some friends, especially if you're into domestics.

    The Station has become one of our local favorites! Easily walkable, dog friendly and good drinks. I recommend the Creeper and the Flat Tire but they have a pretty well stocked bar and can make just about anything you ask for. The same Tex Mex food truck has been here for a while but I'm not complaining, they have great food! Our favorite snack is the nachos with chorizo!

    A great little outdoor bar. Decently priced drinks and beer. There has been a food truck as well that last few times we've been! I almost always order their Kentucky mule perfect amount of bourbon to ginger beer. My fiancé loves trying different beers each time we go. With the outdoor seating, there are heaters to warm up. And I love the addition of the fireplace! Overall, a nice place to relax and grab a quick drink. Casual and cute! Love that it used to be an actual car fixing garage. There's a pool table as well!!

    Food truck BRUNCH every Sunday!

    I'm a little salty about The Garage opening (just kidding) because I had the same idea YEARS ago, and even went as far as to research what the building was zoned for. Alas, the industrious Aimee and Javier (who also own Centro and the former Sabio in Dudley Square) beat me to it. But in all seriousness, I finally got a chance to check it out last night and it was everything the neighborhood has always needed! The interior space is big enough to accommodate maybe 30 people comfortably between the bar and table seating. They have a pool table, giant Connect-4, Jenga, and a few other games. Outside there are a few tented picnic tables and corn hole behind the building. I didn't examine closely but I saw various snacks (beef jerky, chips, etc) behind the bar, and Friday-Sunday they have a food truck on site, including a standing BRUNCH food truck on Sundays! The cocktails are inventive and the drink specials (beer pitchers during UK games, etc) precede them - I had two people give me rave reviews over the past few weeks. They have a decent selection (~20) of canned/bottled beer, cider, and seltzer, plus six rotating drafts. The decor is perfectly reminiscent of an old service station and little touches that pay homage to the original facility are scattered throughout. I must say, the soundtrack playing over the 2ish hours I was there was absolutely perfect; when I pulled up Tyler Childers was playing and the music stayed in that vein the entire time, really setting the mood for a great evening with friends. I can't wait to come back for BRUNCH!

    Thank goodness for this place to open this past Friday! Living in Masterson Station and surrounding areas, places for grown-ups to hang out after work or for a game are hard to come by. The Garage is a fun, laid back environment for anybody to just have a good time. I kind of showed up in sweats and tshirt because I was cleaning the house and in no mood to change. You feel immediately welcome. The open concept feels relaxing. They offer Beer & Bun (hot dog) Specials for $5, Shot of the Day and other snacks to go with your beverage. To work it all off, you can play ping-pong, corn-hole and billiards. Fridays is Family Fun Night until 9pm, which means your littles will be having fun playing games, enjoying food trucks and hanging out with you. They did a great job reviving this place. Please go and check it out! If you're not opposed to leave the car at home, The Garage can be easilt reached by bike or walking!

    This review is pointless I guess. They are closing as of January 1, 2026. Are they closing…read morebecause of the terrible service? Or did I get terrible service because they are closing? I sat at the bar and was ignored for about 15 minutes, even though they looked right at me. Finally one of the bartenders asked if I wanted food or drink, and I said just drinks. "I guess I can do that," he said, and then told me to move over to the other side of the bar to be closer to him (it was right by the door, so I got to experience cold rushes of air the whole time I sat there). Also during my time, a German cockroach skittered across the bar top. I thought maybe the bartender was just sullen, but he was very animated and interactive with the younger couple who came in after me. I had to flag him down for my second drink. Everything seemed like an imposition to him. The drinks were fine and well priced. But the drinks don't matter when the vibe is that bad. I got the check quickly and left.

    Really cool atmosphere. Speakeasy bar style... 3 women set up and played holiday music on violins…read more It was lovely. Very reasonably priced as well. Server and bartender were friendly. I ordered the Cuban and the Patty Melt, both with fries. The Cuban was soooo good!! The bread is grilled and crispy, buttery and amazing. The pulled pork and ham were so flavorful and perfect with the melted cheese and pickles. I would 10/10 order this again. The patty melt was also great. They also have my favorite fries (similar to McDonalds style fries). I'm sad they will be closing at the end of the month. A wonderful dinner.

    This is a great place to grab food and drinks in the Bluegrass Airport. You will be surprised by…read morethe extensive bourbon selections. You don't feel like you are in an airport restaurant. The service at the bar is excellent with both bartenders being very talkative and engaging. I ordered the Cheeseburger with Fries. My wife had the Grilled Romaine Chicken Caesar. We were here around 4:30-5:00pm on Monday and it was very busy, but all the service was very good. It's pricey, but, you are in an airport and this is only one of two restaurants in this airport.

    Food - I typically get the ham and cheese omelette. Which is very good. Not worth the money but…read morewhat are you going to do airport prices! Ambiance- well it's a restaurant inside an airport Service- now this is something. Matt was the dude behind the bar. It was a little busy but the kitchen was very slow. Took forever to get my breakfast. This girl ordered an omelette to go. She waited a good 30 minutes for her omelette at which point she was like my plane is boarding and I gotta go. Matt was like you seen how busy it is so you can go but you still gotta pay for omelette which took way too long to make. The girl was nothing but polite and Matt just kept on making comments. They finally got the omelette out for a to go order. After she walked out Matt was telling everyone that he thought they were going to brawl. Nothing but politeness from the girl, handled way better than most people. Dam sure wouldn't be paying crap if I didn't get my food in a timely manner. After the brawl comment Matt goes on to tell everyone at the bar that he had a girl that apparently never been in a restaurant before. Uncalled for. This girl was nothing but polite Matt kept pushing her to stay. I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't miss her flight. People like that I don't understand, this girl never raises her voice and he just kept making sly comments. Matt if ya can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen! Don't get me wrong everyone else I have dealt with at bourbon library has been great. Matt on the other hand if he is here I will pass by!
