Rose & Jim's Bar & Grill

Best venue in Lexington - Hands Down! Great location. Great property!
During the day, the food is great.
All the bartenders are awesome!
It makes no sense that they charge a cover on weekend nights, but I still love the place.
This place should be FULL and LIT, but it's not?

Stopped in to eat and the staff/bartender was rude. As you walk in there are signs explaining it is cash only establishment and I understand some people can't read. But when the bartender came over, she was snooty and almost threw the menu towards us, and said "we are cash only" and walked away.

Would not recommend this place.

This is not a place you would want to take the family. It is a pub. Very dark. Music a mixture of Honky Tonk and Rap. Food was good and prices were very fair. They do not accept credit or debit cards but they have an ATM that will cost $3.50 to use. We did not have a bad experience there. It was just not what we expected. Probably won't return.

FYI...21 or older all the time. Wanted to stop by due to the overall good ratings for a nice casual meal on a Sunday at 12:30, but alas, though the only people other than the staff, still 21+. I thinks that's perfectly fine, but not ideal. So, won't be back unfortunately. I can't fairly rate the place otherwise, but it is making me, so I just clicked the existing average.

Great place! Great food! Awesome Cheeseburger! Friends recommended it and we love it! Enjoying a lazy Sunday Funday sitting outside listening to great music and watching a Cornhole tournament. It's our new favorite place close to the Ky Horse Park when we are camping! The owner, Jim, she's great! Super friendly staff! Stop by when you can!

You're going to think I'm crazy.

But I promise I'm not. It's the best bar food around. Tasty. Well prepared.

The menu isn't extensive, but the food is tasty and the beer is cold.

And the staff is amazing.

Sam was a superstar and the food and atmosphere was amazing. I am so happy to have found this gem in Kentucky!! Highly recommend.

Wow! Holy Covid-Hot Spot! I drove by here last night about 9pm and there was nowhere to park and the whole place, all of it---packed. Well above 50% capacity, more like just about 100 or even more. Shame on you.

Few things you should know (disclaimers):
1) grew up in super small town northern Idaho
2) love locals bars
3) equally love the Cheers Effect (think 'hey Norm!')
4) have a small hankering for bar staple foods
5) any place that has TouchTunes jukebox control is worth it
6) this establishment only accepts CASH
7) but for good reason
8) they do have an ATM
9) meet Kim and her family at the bar.
10) say hi to the Mayor
11) tell Reggie hello
12) tip Lisa heavy cause she's worth it
13) tell Justin to keep being so polite to patrons and minding the Warden.

Just passing through. Really fun! Great karaoke! Everyone is so friendly. You feel like it's your hometown right away!
