The Brewer's Kettle — Restaurant in Lexington

I came wandering in here on a Saturday afternoon curious what the place was all about. My husband and I moved up here about 2 months ago and we're trying to find the cool places to go to to get a pint and maybe some food and just chill for a bit, bring the dog, maybe meet some friends. We've been underwhelmed with Lexington to be honest but we have been spoiled living near Charlotte for a few years and coming from 20 yrs in Fort Lauderdale, so there's that.

There was a food truck there, Sushi Empire, and although I was a little nervous about getting sushi in this area, my tuna poke bowl was awesome. Very fresh and a substantial serving.

There's a a decent amount of unique beers to either drink or take home with you. There is some selection of wine, not a whole lot. There's plenty of room to sit with your family or friends. This is a big warehouse addition next to the main bar that is spacious and comfortable. There's also outside seating, but it was too darn hot to do that.

The husband and wife who run this place are really sweet people and there is a really great vibe here. Unlike the Goose and Monkey around the corner, this place does not let dogs in unless it's a service animal, but you can have...

Very relaxed, neighborhood, drop by, meet some friends, have a beer, unwind, and leave relaxed, kind of place. You walk in and to your right are tables and towards the wall a long bar. Straight ahead are coolers filled with ALL KINDS OF BOTTLED AND CANNED BEERS, CIDERS, AND CREAM SODAS/NON ALCOHOLIC TYPE BOTTLED DRINKS at reasonable prices. Since I'm not a drinker, I went for the orange cream soda and it was fantastic.For the wine drinkers, there is a section to the left of the coolers with a selection of wine waiting for you to buy, again, at reasonable prices. As you come in the door, grab which ever you choose to drink, head towards the bar, pay and they will ask if you are staying, and if so, they will pop your tab, ask if you want a glass or not, pour it if you do, then head towards your choice of tables, couch, group chairs, or out door seating and enjoy! Good vibe and great gathering water hole. Ample parking as well. This place is off a side street so you can window shop...

My husband and I love to visit the kettle any day of the week! They have an amazing selection of craft beer and especially the Belgian beers that we prefer and nobody else has. The owner Dave & his wife are such kind and funny people, always here and always happy to chat. Michael the chef is FIRE, he’s worked in fine dining and many other restaurants, everything he makes is amazing! They do fun events during the week and weekend and have special food trucks occasionally. They have outdoor seating and tables and games to play while you chill and unwind. 10000% recommend. Environment is relaxed and there is never any young people crowding the area or being rowdy. High class but in the most enjoyable and affordable way. No where else like this in Lexington /...
