Was a top bar in the USA back when Henry owned it. Since then it has had multiple owners and has gone downhill. Trading on their old glory days.

You were north campus and all those dorms are new or still under construction. If you had gone a few blocks down you would have hit some good spots downtown and if you had gone a block or two the other direction you would hit Pazzo's. If you headed to Memorial you eventually hit Woodland (where the riots are when UK wins NCAA's) and if you kept going you will eventually hit Chevy Chase which have some very nice watering holes.

As somebody stated earlier, Lexington has a MSA of 500,000 people so you really have to plan. You really want to hit the local spots with local owners. The chain places with corporate owners are pretty lame.

Tin Roof and Two Keys are cheap college bars across the street from dorms. Cheese Grits is right, Tin Roof used to be a Huddle House. College bar scene is pretty depressing after home team loses a game...

Not sure if OP is a MSU alumni or still in school, but I went back to Lex for UK vs USC game and it was crazy downtown. Did the triple-header: Keeneland, watched UK beat Spurrier, and then went out partying all night!

OP should probably read about cities he visits or be nice to locals and ask for information? When you say we have bad comebacks, etc.; it sounds like were being an arrogant drunkard and running your mouth...
