- RRosieCentral Kentucky •2 reviews4.0Dined 4 days agoBrunch was good but average for the experience. I wouldn’t go back for a girls brunch or any experience, actually. Apparently, bottomless mimosas happen on Sundays but unfortunately, we went on Saturday. Go to Winchills for breakfast.More info33 StavesPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Lexington•4.2
