The Kentucky Native Experience

* Family friendly * Dogs on leashes welcome

Wow, talk about Kentucky Native: Lexington’s Secret Garden! There’s a small wonderland behind Michler’s Florist dubbed The Kentucky Native that offers an enchanting variety of fun, frolic & entertainment.

 
Michler’s Florist has been part of the Lexington scene for over 40 years. Just a couple of years ago they introduced The Kentucky Native outback in the fashion of a German Bier garden. Beer bunks & tables are nestled into the landscape with trees serving as shady canopy.
 
 
Many of the ingredients for the fresh salads & sandwiches are locally sourced, if not right from their own greenhouses. You will find little delights such as the Moroccan chickpea salad, roasted Japanese eggplant with a delicious garlic drizzle, Brie, honey & walnut sandwich, watermelon & mint salad just to name a few. This makes Kentucky Native Lexington’s Secret Garden.
 
 
But wait, there’s more!… Local beers are on tap, together with wine & coffee. Try a German Radler which is a refreshing summer combination of draft beer and lemonade. It sure hits the spot on a warm, sunny day. They also house-make seasonal syrups to enjoy with sparkling water or champagne.
 
 
Visit on a Sunday for live music from 11-2PM in the garden. Bonus- they now have a ping pong table! Come join in & bring family, friends & well-behaved dogs for lively times & great celebrations.

When the weather cools they open up their greenhouse for cozy dining. Not to be missed is their traditional Weinachs Market, a German-style Christmas market with live music, local makers, lots of fresh baked cookies to take home, live wreaths, grilled cheese and mulled wine.

Love downtown Lexington? Check out my favorite eateries and bars great for date night or girl’s night out.
