Well, I was probably there last night sitting on their covered patio! Traditional Kentucky Southern food. Parking tip: you can either valet or go early and find a parking spot in the back *they really do not ever tow! You didn't hear that from me

Built originally before the Civil War and completely remodeled in 1936 by the Cal Milam family, the Merrick Inn served as the Manor House for one of Lexington’s finest horse farms. It was here, at Merrick Place, that Cal Milam and his groom, Mr. Johnson, trained the fabled "Exterminator," Kentucky Derby winner of 1918. Here also, Tut Tut, who won every race he entered as a two-year-old in 1920; and Komuraski, Commodore, Brown Wisdom, Miss Joy, Milkmaid, McKee, (winner of the National Stallion Stakes), and Dust Flower, who defeated Cartoonist and Messenger in the 1922 Flashstakes, started on their paths to fame and fortune. None of these thoroughbreds, however, gained such widespread fame as Merrick himself. Merrick finished in the money 157 times, winning 62 races. Merrick became a member of the Milam family, not only because of his success at the races, but also because he was "worthy in deeds and noble in character" - a tribute to him etched by the Milams on his gravestone located in the shady circle just in front of the Inn. Merrick died in 1941 at the age of 38, the oldest of all thoroughbreds. Merrick was truly a very special horse and his namesake a very special farm. We have been offering our guests the finest in traditional southern cuisine and personal service by our amazing staff for more than 43 years. Times have changed, but we believe the beauty and charm of our Inn have been enhanced by the years of offering many good people the best of Kentucky traditions. Thank you for dining with us.

Classic Southern/Americana fare. Historic home for formal indoor seating and a great patio for more casual dining. They are famous for their fried chicken. $$$
