The Local Honey

We love the ambiance of this downtown local restaurant Friendly people, homey decor, and yet eclectic at the same time. Service was top notch, Weordered the "Three for $13. and couldn't be happier. The chicken veggie soup was truly amazing with the consistency of a pot pie. Homemade and very flavorful. The "Londonaire salad was outstanding. Fresh local greens, freshly cooked bacon, hard boiled egg and finely shredded cheese laced with pickled red onion & the homemade dressing was a huge hit. The half chicken salad sandwich was plum full of chicken a nice slice of tomato & greens on fresh grilled bakerwas also a winner. It's a couple miles off the freeway but the drive was well worth it.

Adorable little spot off of Main St in London. We were looking for a place to stop for lunch on our drive down 75 and this was perfect! About 8 min off the highway in a quaint little town square. The food is fresh and well seasoned with lots of good menu options. We had the chicken and dumplings soup and the Londoner salad as well as the Power Bowl with chicken. The service was quick and friendly!

Wow!! I was super impressed from the moment that I walked in. I loved the decor and ambiance. The brunch menu has many options and everything looks so good. I ordered the Country Club Omelette with Gouda cheese. It came with the most delicious shredded potatoes. The local meats were excellent and I can't say enough about how much i loved the meal.I will drive down from Lexington just to come here. I can't wait to try more things on their menu.The owner was very busy and very friendly and came by the table to ask how our food was. What a great place!

Oh my goodness...we stumbled on this place while passing through town and loved everything about it! Our server, Nicholas, was fabulous, knowledgable, and attentive. We got the bruschetta, which was wonderful, and both got the Harvest Salad, which was just fabulous. The pork rinds on the table are not something we usually eat, but they were so delicious we consumed the whole basket!!! The decor is beautifully and whimsically done. I highly recommend you give it a try.

We recently stayed in London for our family gathering and visited The Local Honey for the first time. Let me tell you, I'm never passing through again without stopping to eat! The service was friendly and welcoming and the ambiance was relaxed and cozy but also perfect for a special night out. The food was absolutely delicious! We tried the Salmon Dip and Bang Bang Shrimp & Brussels apps and I could have licked the bowl of the Bang Bang Shrimp & Brussels! My meal was the 8oz Local Sirloin, which was cooked perfectly and paired with delicious Mashed Potatoes and Broccolini. The rest of our table had the Cajun Chicken Pasta Alfredo and Duck with Risotto dishes and everyone was gushing!! I'm so thankful for our experience at Local Honey! It made a wonderful visit with family even more special!

Stopped in for brunch when returning to Nashville from the Red River Gorge. It's located in a neat historic downtown and was an unexpected find. Great atmosphere, service and food!

What a disappointing experience for dinner tonight. We made reservations considering the holiday weekend. We arrived early. We were Sat timely, but noticed that the host was also bussing tables and was regularly behind in both duties. We ordered several appetizers for our party of just 4 people, myself, husband and two sons. The shrimp and Brussels were divine, cooked perfectly, and crispy. The spinach dip lacked severely. It was so dry with the amount of Parmesan and little cream, it was like a crust less quiche. I am so glad I ordered a half salad, the Londonian was marvelous and had everything I could ask for, it was savory and cheesy, the croutons were sweet which was actually delightful. However, we waited. And we waited. And since our seating at 7:40 pm it was now 9 pm. Our waitress had finally cleared the table of appetizer plates and asked if we were ok. Sure. We've been waiting forever for dinner but please don't delay it further. Too bad. While waitstaff also bartended, they forgot to put in our ticket for dinner. Needless to say we had it boxed up and left, our two children rarely have 2 hour dinner events. Upon arriving home with our packaged dinners and two free desserts, btw I had a cheesecake waiting for me at home, so that was senseless. I was pretty disappointed in the dinner, the boxing was thoughtless as the purple mashed potatoes were rolled into the green beans, no separate containers, along with the peaches that coated the pork chop. The pork chop was tender enough until the middle which was dry. The geeen beans would have been nice if not for the tornado disaster of packaging. Vegetable goulash is not a preference of mine.I want to add that the lighting in the back needs help. You have a gorgeous bar with nice warm lights and directly across are two tables with bright cool light that gives off migraine vibes.There's such a nice selection of music in the late evening, but you may get distracted with two tv's on the wall, one is playing SNL reruns. It feels like you're trying to please everyone and no one at the same time. Bathroom was clean for the ladies room and well attended to. I want so badly to ask one thing. Where was the manager on the night before Mother's Day? Not only are your customers frustrated but you totally neglected your staffing issues.

In the area overnight for work, and thrilled to see such a high rated place on Main Street.Service was superb, and the manager/owner made his rounds to every table to say hello. Their smoked old fashion was quite lovely as well.I ordered the grilled chicken entree. The chicken was dry. It was so dry that my hand cramped up when I tried cutting into it with my knife and fork. Mashed potatoes were also dry. The flavor was there. A ton of herbs, garlic and salted really well. It was just so dry....

The Fat Man recently went out of town for a work conference in London, KY. While I was there, I stopped at Local Honey for lunch. Local Honey says their food is made with love and fresh ingredients, especially for you. I had the Local Honey Bacon Board, which comes with hand-cut smoked Lardon, Sourdough toast, house jam, and soft cheese. This was dusted with powdered sugar. The bacon was thick-cut with a nice crunch and a good chew with an excellent salt level. I got a nice crunch with the toast, which was buttered well. The house jam was an elderberry jam that was sweet but not overpowering. The cheese was creamy with a hint of garlic tagging, and the chives were slightly bland but paired well with the salty bacon. When you put all the components together, it reminded me of a Monte Cristo sandwich. For my meal, I decided to try the Manhattan. This was prepared with slow-roasted beef, carrots, green beans, mashed potatoes, and brown gravy and served on Texas toast. The green beans and carrots were blanched and cooked with a little crunch but lacked seasoning. The roast beef was dry, chewy, and under-seasoned; however, I also detected a slight sweetness that was unfortunate. The gravy was creamy and smooth, with a good flavor and texture, but there was still sweetness. The mashed potatoes were seasoned perfectly and had large chunks of potatoes, giving texture to the dish. The toast on the bottom had a good crunch, and the amount of bread went well with the serving size. Combining the toast, potatoes, and gravy in one bite offered an okay bite in texture and chew, but the dry, flavorless, sweet meat and gravy took away from the experience and made the meal unable to be finished. Local Honey offers a full bar with a brunch and dinner menu. The service was excellent, and the ambiance was neat for the space. The Fat Man says that Local Honey is NOT Fat Man approved.

Cozy atmosphere with great Saturday brunch options. Kind, attentive service as well! Will definitely be back when I'm in town
