The Brown Barrel

Really really great experience here at the Brown barrel! We were just passing through and ended up staying the night at a nice little airbnb not far down the road. Tasha was out server and was fantastic! We shared a blacked cat fish, grouper bites and loaded Brown barrels(tater tots with a spicy jalopeno mix) all recommendations from Tasha. We will definitely come back and make more of a stay here in Frankfort to experience the full bourbon trail!

Food was phenomenal. We had beer battered mushrooms, I had the Kentucky burger and my husband had the pork belly sandwich. Both were perfect. Didn't have to wait long at all. The bartender was also our server and she was friendly. I assume the manager asked how our food was. Besides that very little interaction was made with any staff. Place was clean, I didnt see any obvious concerns. Overall, great food for the price. We would recommend this place for the food alone.

very low key hole in the wall but pretty kid friendly. service was kind and quick. food was divided, some great and some just ok. they had little drawing tablets for the kids to play with, lots of drink specials, and even happy hour after 2pm. fried catfish was good!

I grew up in Frankfort but I just moved back in the past two years and I have never eaten here. I was bored and just tried it out and I tell you what they have great food. And I will definitely go back. I had the grouper fingers appetizer and fried catfish sandwich and fries. Delicious. Server was nice and that always helps.

My son and I went for the first time for a birthday meal. Had the brown barrel tater tots for the appetizer, I had the pork belly sandwich with Mac and cheese, he had the short rib sandwich with mac and cheese along with chicken tenders and sweet potato waffle fries. We both found it very good and generous portions. Relaxed casual atmosphere and Amanda was awesome! Friendly, informative and attentive. Thank you! We will definitely be going back.
