Unique Dinner In Kentucky Castle

Does Kentucky have any castles?

If you're looking for a royal experience in The Bluegrass State, you don't have to look hard! Kentucky is full of some of the most extraordinary, unexpected castles that will have you doing a Google Maps double-check to see if you're really still in Kentucky. Indeed, you are. Of course, The Kentucky Castle is one of the state's crown jewels; it's a premier boutique hotel, restaurant, spa, and event space that offers a plethora of experiences throughout the year. From rooftop workout classes to themed dinners (like the unique dinner listed above), the Castle is now the king of creative events and experiences on its property. Of course, it's not the only castle in Kentucky -- far from it! Located in Woodford County is an old, once-abandoned distillery housed in a small castle. The Old Taylor Distillery was built in 1887 by Col. E.H. Taylor, and today it's a booming distillery in Kentucky. It's the proud home of Castle & Key Distillery, which produces bourbon (obviously, because we are in Kentucky!), rye whiskey, and gin, making for a pretty epic Kentucky experience. Another picturesque gem, Yew Dell Botanical Gardens. is an internationally-recognized nonprofit center for gardening, plants, and education that's listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and gives off all the royal vibes. One of the most iconic sites here is the castle; it was originally built as a pool house for Yew Dell’s original owner, but you can now rent space in it for meetings or special occasions.

What are some unique restaurants in Kentucky?

If you enjoyed the above unique dinner in Kentucky Castle, you'll be pleased to find lots of unique eateries in The Bluegrass State. (Because eating, after all, is an experience.) Flamingo Row is a tropical-themed restaurant in Paducah that takes you to the Caribbean with each visit. The interior is as colorful as the exterior and is filled with palm trees, bright lights, and of course, flamingos. This place is an escape to the beach -- without leaving Kentucky! And longtime readers will know we've always been big fans of Patti's 1880's Settlement in Grand Rivers; it is truly a one-of-a-kind destination in Kentucky. The restaurant boasts its famous flowerpot bread, home-cooked meals, and over-the-top desserts, and the property is just as impressive. Another unique restaurant is definitely The Parkette, which is a dine-in garage that's just one of those quintessential Kentucky food experiences. And their fried "Chicken in the Box?" Divine.
