Pull up a chair at The Trustees’ Table and taste 200 years of tradition — reimagined.

Chef Amber Hokams and Farm Manager HP Lovelace bring guests a true seed-to-table experience, crafting a family-style menu using seasonal ingredients grown just steps away in the Shaker Village garden. Dig into Kentucky classics like Mrs. Kremer’s Fried Chicken, Country Catfish, Johnny Cakes, and the Fried Chicken & Biscuits Platter served with Shaker Village honey.

Each day brings a rotating selection of fresh-from-the-earth sides — okra and corn one day, beets and collards the next. Pro tip: Don’t skip dessert. Their famous Shaker Lemon Pie is served daily.

Whether it’s your first visit or a beloved tradition, every meal here connects you to the land, the season, and the people who tend it. Located just 40 minutes from Lexington, The Trustees’ Table is open daily for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Your next family tradition starts there.

Make a reservation.
