Lexy & Daniel
Things To Do
Ashland - The Henry Clay Estate
Take a tour of Senator Henry Clay’s beautiful and storied estate, or grab lunch from the Mouse Trap to enjoy on the lawn.
Bourbon n' Toulouse
This is our favorite take out spot in Lexington and possibly our favorite neighborhood. Check out the Chevy Chase Inn (Lexington’s oldest bar), Charlie Brown’s, and the Beer Trappe while you’re there.
Bourbon on Rye
THE place to grab a *good* cocktail and feel like a whiskey connoisseur.
Buffalo Trace Distillery
Take a tour of our favorite distillery that produces our favorite bourbons.
Gratz Park
Another beautiful spot for a walk or a picnic in the heart of downtown Lexington.
Honeywood Restaurant
Close to the Origin Hotel, Honeywood is a delicious restaurant created by Chef Ouita Michael—known for her modern twists on Kentucky classics and her use of local, fresh foods.
Julietta Market
The Julietta Market is a new public market in North Lexington that includes everything from established shops to pop-up vendors local to the neighborhood. Find food, art, coffee, and other goods here, while supporting Lexington small business owners.
Le Deauville
Le Deauville is a favorite “nice” restaurant in Lex. Enjoy a glass (or a bottle) of wine, an order of mussels, and the green peppercorn New York strip.
Merrick Inn Restaurant
Merrick holds a special place in our hearts. For forty years, it has served fantastic southern staples. Grab a seat on the patio and try a bourbon slush, a secret family recipe.
The Stave
If you want to see horse country, take a drive to The Stave for lunch. Right down the street in sleepy Millville, you’ll find Castle & Key Distillery. Castle & Key is housed in the historic (1887) former E.H. Taylor distillery—an incredible piece of Kentucky history.
West Sixth Brewing
Simply the best beer in the city. Lexy’s favorite is their classic IPA, Daniel loves the West Sixth Cerveza.
