Well, if you're into the bourbon scene (like my husband) and you're checking out Versailles, DEFINITELY try to make a trip to Woodford Reserve's Distillery. It is just outside of the town, and it is such a beautiful, historically preserved KY treasure nestled along some of Woodford County's horse farms. They make small batch bourbon, and their tours are FANTASTIC. Plus the scenery is such classic Woodford County that you can really appreciate the beauty of the Versailles area, which even non-bourbon lovers can enjoy. We've taken several out-of-town guests there and they are always delighted with the experience. There are other bourbon disilleries throughout KY, but in my opinion, none of them beat the beauty of Woodford Reserve's place.
Just keep in mind that if you visit on a Sunday, state law won't let you do a tasting.
Also while you're in Versailles, check out Sweet Potatoes restaurant. They are tucked into a small strip mall right between US 60 and the bypass. It is a great "hole-in-the-wall" family restaurant that locals love. And they're famous for their fried sweet potatoes (yum!!).
