As a Lexington local, we’re guessing that District 7 Social Hall has probably been added to your regular rotation of food + drink destinations since opening its doors at the beginning of the year.

Located at 1170 Manchester St. in the Distillery District, District 7 Social is a dynamic food hall concept currently home to German-isch, a German-inspired eatery, a self-serve Beer Wall featuring 50+ local drafts, and bowling, ping-pong, and golf game spaces.

And now, a new *sweetery* is coming. Sweet Iron is slated to open mid-August, and will feature a European and regional waffle-inspired menu of classics, including:

  • Chocolate-dipped waffle treats (topped with fruits and homemade whipped cream)
  • Scratch-made waffle ice cream sandwiches
  • Chicken and waffles
  • Waffle breakfasts

Our mouths are already watering. Stay tuned for updates about Sweet Iron’s exact opening date — we’ll share it in the News Notes section as soon as we have it. See District 7 Social’s hours.
