About

Restaurant
We’re a bit like our hometown: sophisticated, well-traveled, but grounded in our roots. We believe there’s nothing more important than taking time to dine well with family and friends in a beautiful space. And we have a passion for all things Bluegrass - curing our meats in-house, supporting the region’s diverse farming and food community, and keeping a local-first mindset in everything we do. Epping’s is located in a renovated historic building that once held Epping Bottling Works, home to the hustle and spirit of local entrepreneur John G. Epping. Today, we are proud to honor that history and be part of the energy of downtown Lexington’s Warehouse Block.

    Lost our reservation made a month in advance but finally got a table. Food was okay but nothing special and over priced.

    This is a top restaurant in Kentucky. Staff is accommodating and hospitable(even with little kids!) But the food is why we come here. Everything we've tried has been unbeatable. I hope the mastermind behind their menu never quits.
