More bars in Lexington
Bourbon on Rye ★ 4.2
Bourbon on Rye keeps Prohibition-era cocktails and 12 taps going until 02:30 on West Main Street, a late-shift bourbon room in downtown Lexington.
DrinkRye cocktails from the Prohibition playbook
TipWednesday to Saturday only; kitchen plates pub classics late, which is rare downtown after midnight.
Dark Arts Whiskey House ★ 4.4
Dark Arts Whiskey House finishes barrels in Lexington's Distillery District and pours cask tastings on Manchester Street, a Kentucky Bourbon Trail stop.
DrinkBarrel tastings drawn straight from the cask
TipBook the barrel tasting; pulling your pour straight from an ageing cask beats the standard flight.
Henry Clay's Public House ★ 3.9
Henry Clay's Public House pours pints on North Upper Street, blocks from the statesman's old law office, a downtown Lexington blues and covers pub.
DrinkKentucky drafts with live blues on Tuesdays
TipClosed Sunday and Monday; Tuesday blues nights are the local pick over the busier weekend cover bands.
Wiseguy Lounge ★ 4.3
Wiseguy Lounge hides a Prohibition-styled bourbon bar above Goodfellas Pizzeria on Manchester Street, Lexington's speakeasy with hundreds of bottles.
DrinkBourbon old fashioned above the pizza ovens
TipEnter through the pizzeria and head upstairs; Thursday to Saturday it pours until 02:30 with slices below.
The Green Lantern ★ 4.1
The Green Lantern books doom metal, bluegrass and punk into a West Third Street dive, one of Lexington's most-loved and longest-running dive rooms.
DrinkCheap cans and whatever band is loading in
TipCash helps at the bar; Wednesday karaoke and the happy hour before 19:00 are the reliable nights.
Al's Bar ★ 4.2
Al's Bar anchors the corner of Sixth and Limestone with burgers, local beer and gigs, the long-running NoLi corner bar wired into Lexington's music scene.
DrinkLocal drafts before a punk or bluegrass set
