Why Grayson, KY may never have a Walmart… (and why it’s okay)

One of the most common things I see people in this town asking for is a Walmart. It’s something I’ve never fully understood, for several reasons.

It’s literally about 10 miles from town, and if you can’t make the drive, you can even have groceries delivered to your house, including in places like Hitchins.

Three new places to grab a bite or a drink are about to open up in downtown Lexington. And one new restaurant is open right now. Here’s what is coming soon and when. And where you can grab a bite today. Hellenic Kitchen by Ilias Pappas This new Mediterranean concept from Greek restaurant owner Ilias Pappas is opening at Park Plaza, next to the library on Main Street and North Limestone. After a soft opening, Hellenic Kitchen will be open to the public beginning Nov. 30. It’s a sister concept to his popular Greek restaurant, Athenian Grill. The restaurant’s menu includes build-your-own bowls, salads and pita sandwiches as well as a new Greek frozen yogurt with dessert toppings. Hellenic Kitchen will be open Monday through Saturday, 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Two Keys Tavern After a dispute over an unpermitted patio this summer, Two Keys Tavern plans to open Nov. 19 at 503 S. Upper St. The bar, which will serve sliders, wings, flatbread pizzas, quesadillas and empanadas and other pub food, has been allowed to keep its patio but with restrictions that mean it can only be used from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. with no outdoor speakers.
