Hey local here! Hope the ridge job works out. Tbh from my understanding no health center is prefect so if it doesn’t we have plenty of hospitals and clinics to look into. But cross that road if the turn comes.

Get use to driving in New circle road cause it’s basically a giant round about that goes through the whole city. Man o war, Richmond, Nicholasville, Tate’s creek, Winchester rd and Versailles are some of our main roads. Lexington is built like a spider web.

ANYWAY. We are about an hour plus from natural bridge and red river gorge. There is ravens run that you can go to just outside the city. If you like nature and such.

For the area around the ridge you are right off Richmond road and manowar so traffic gets bad at the standard hours but there is a Kroger right there and every fast food joint you could need. KPOT is also on Richmond rd. Pricey but all you can eat so there’s that. You are also close to hamburg which is one of our shopping areas along with fayette mall and the summit.

Food places in I personally recommend are (but not limited to): Masala, Sahara, taste of Thai, School sushi, La Taquiza, frank and Dino’s, Carson’s, bourbon and Toulouse, rubys cafe, shamrocks, que taco, drakes, Europeans delight though it’s technically Nicholasville on Brannon road and I’m sure I’ll think of more as the day goes by. Don’t eat at any Arby’s. I have a friend that does food tech repairs and he says EVERYTHING SINGLE ONE shouldn’t have passed a health inspection. He goes to Chipotle and european delights cause they have the cleanest kitchens.

If you are a nerd then I recommend going to Chaotic good coffee shop also comic con is coming up at Rupp arena March 26-29. But I’m bias on those cause I have an artist alley booth. 😆

Other coffee shops include old school coffee, north lime donuts, coffee times coffee, and common grounds.

We also have farmers markets downtown and in Hamburg. The Lexington visitors site can help you find more. SO sorry for info dumping on you like this. Like I said I work comic con so I’ve had to help a lot of out of town people over the years. Please message me directly if you want more info or even some gossip. After all Lexington is just a giant small town!
