Merrick Inn Restaurant

Patio season has arrived, and Merrick Inn is made for weekends like these.

Join us for brunch Saturday or Sunday, or gather for dinner and enjoy one of Lexington’s favorite patios during our 50th anniversary year.

If you have a graduate to celebrate this month, a few private dining options are still available. Give us a call and we’d be happy to help find the right space for your celebration.

Enjoy two pieces of our signature fried chicken, golden, crisp, and perfectly seasoned, served alongside creamy mashed potatoes and your choice of two classic sides.

It’s a simple comfort, elevated with care and Southern heritage in every bite.

Join us this Wednesday and make it part of your weekly ritual.

Introducing our Bourbon of the Month: K**b Creek 18 Year Single Barrel — $24

Aged with patience and intention, this rare expression brings deep oak character, rich caramel warmth, and a remarkably smooth finish, crafted for those who appreciate bourbon at its most refined.

Whether enjoyed slowly at the bar or as the perfect nightcap to dinner, this is a pour worth enjoying.

Ben Lacy takes the patio this evening from 6pm to 10pm.

Monday nights at Merrick are quietly among our favorite of the week. Live music, the bourbon bar, the most awarded patio in Lexington, and the Southern classics that have kept us here for over 50 years.

Come for the music, stay for dinner.

After all the rain, we’re finally getting a little break!

It’s the perfect day to slow down and settle in on the patio at Merrick Inn with a bourbon slush in hand and good company at the table.

Bring your family, gather your friends, and enjoy a quiet, peaceful dinner outdoors, the kind of evening that reminds you to stay a little longer.

A Lexington Saturday has its own rhythm, unhurried, familiar, and meant to be enjoyed at Merrick Inn 🌿

It starts with brunch on the patio, where the morning feels a little slower and the table conversation lasts a little longer. It continues with a bourbon flight, the kind that invites you to pause, sip, and settle into the day. And it ends the way it should, with our signature fried chicken, golden and timeless, shared with the people you’re glad to be with.

This season also brings moments worth celebrating. If you have a graduate in your life, we still have a few private event dates available in June to help you mark the occasion in a meaningful way.

Reservations are open for both Saturday and Sunday brunch. We look forward to having you with us.

Father’s Day is coming and it’s the perfect time to celebrate the dads, grandfathers, and father figures who’ve given so much, with a meal shared around the table and a moment that feels well deserved.

Memorial Day belongs to those who gave everything in service to this country, and to the families who carry their memory. Our team is home with their own families today, taking that moment of remembrance.

We will return tomorrow, with the patio open, the bourbon bar ready, and the Southern menu that has made us a Lexington tradition for 50 years.
