Local atmosphere, historic charm and good food make Cheapside Bar & Grill a Lexington downtown favorite, but it's the live rhythm and blues that keeps Cheapside packed on the weekends.
Oscar's Piano Bar next
door to Malone's is a great place to sit down and spend a relaxing
evening listening to some of the best jazz in town--there's always
someone tickling the ivories.
