The Windjammer Bar & Grill is one of our favorite restaurants in downtown Lexington. You can grab an outdoor seat right on the harbor and watch all of the boats coming in and out. They recently just got a great sushi chef in too and locals love their Sunday Brunch Buffet (with options to add on endless mimosas or bloody marys).
