Critchfield Meats runs a family butcher counter on Southland Drive, cutting Kentucky beef, pork and country ham for Lexington home cooks since the 1960s.
TipOrder the custom grill boxes ahead of Keeneland tailgates; the counter staff will spec cuts to your cooker.
Boone Creek Creamery makes artisan cheese by hand on Palumbo Drive, running Lexington cheesemaking tours with tastings straight from the ageing room.
TipTours of the cheese kitchen are free; call ahead to book a slot and browse the Kentucky Proud shelves while you wait.
The Mousetrap has sold gourmet pantry goods on Tates Creek Road since 1976, and its house-made pimento cheese is a Lexington refrigerator staple.
TipThe pimento cheese tub is the non-negotiable buy; add benedictine spread in Derby season for the full local set.
The Lexington Farmers' Market gathers 50-plus vendors from central Kentucky at Tandy Centennial Park every Saturday, running year-round in every season.
TipPeak season runs April to October from 08:00; the November to March market stays in the same park but runs 09:00 to 13:00.
Greyline Station packs a 1928 bus terminal on West Loudon with Lexington food stalls, from Wing KYng and North Lime donuts to Darling's natural wines.
TipCome hungry and graze across stalls; Wing KYng runs late while the coffee and donut counters close by early afternoon.
