Are there old Lexington diners, music venues, bars, and businesses you still miss? We recently asked you that question, and now we’re taking a trip back in time.

Consider this is an ode to some of your favorite now-closed Lexington businesses.

Alfalfa

This beloved staple called South Limestone home, then East Main Street in its later iterations. Opened in 1973, the spot was known for its Southern food (anyone remember the griddle cakes?) and vegetarian options.

Atomic Cafe

Instagram user @kamorris2 said every time they drive by the "[still] empty carcass of Atomic Cafe," they're flooded with memories of being in their early 20s in a rock and roll band.

"Atomic Cafe! Best patio in Lexington." — @markmonzinger

The Coach House

The fine-dining establishment featured French, Italian, and Greek cuisines with an atmosphere that felt like an exclusive club.

Cosmic Charlie's

Nothing said a night out on the town like catching a concert at Cosmic Charlie's. It's Deadhead-inspired vibes welcomed some iconic acts, like Apples in Stereo and Unknown Hinson of Adult Swim fame.

The Dame

Another beloved music venue, this West Main Street venue saw budding artists (many of whom went on to win Grammy Awards) like Jason Isbell and St. Vincent beforef it closed in 2009.

Magee's

"I'll never get over Magees being closed. A true Lexington gem!" — @sarahkosidedwards

Parkette Drive In

"If I dare to dream, I would love for the Parkette to be re-opened in a new area, move the sign (or leave it where it stands), and bring back the iconic drive-in eatery that was one of the spots Lexington was known for!" — Reader Ginni H.

Sav's Grill

This West African spot served up comforting eats, like its peanut chicken bowl and fufu. But don't fret — you can still grab Sav's hot sauce and ice cream around town.
