SUCH an amazing experience. It was absolutely beautiful, and the food was outstanding. I'm picky, so my only complaint is that there are no substations of any kind. But, other than that, it is definitely a 5 star visit

Owner Response

Lots of unique and rarer items. Not very handicap accessible. Steps without adequate ramps.

Went here to visit the antiques and was intrigued by the other reviews. It did not disappoint, sure some high priced items but everything was beautiful! Took myself a Jack in the pulpit vase and I love it! Would visit here again if I do travel near Lexington
