The Best Chicken And Waffles In The South Can Be Found At This Unassuming Restaurant In Kentucky
Here in Kentucky, we’re known for our fried chicken. We’re world-famous for it, in fact! And we believe fried chicken is suitable for any meal of the day, breakfast included. But for those who hesitate to dive into a bucket of crispy goodness at 8 a.m., there’s another option: chicken and waffles. The ultimate marriage of savory and sweet, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more delicious way to start your day! And for the best chicken and waffles in the Bluegrass…. and quite possibly the entire South? That’s easy: Local Feed, an unassuming restaurant in Georgetown, Kentucky.
At any Southern table, you'll find fried chicken front and center. And don't get us wrong: fried chicken is darn delicious. But atop a hot and fluffy, homemade waffle and drizzled with maple and/or honey? That's a dish sure to make your taste buds sing!
Truly a destination restaurant, the historic building in which Local Feed is located was originally constructed in the 1890s as an ice house, across the street from Royal Spring, which Bluegrass bourbonites will recognize as the site where Elijah Craig is said to have pulled water to first make bourbon.
And when paired with house-made waffles, shishito peppers, and a chili-spiked maple syrup? A revelation! You've never had chicken and waffles quite like this before.
