Repeal Oak Fired Steakhouse
Raise a glass to authenticity at Repeal Oak Fired Steakhouse, Whiskey Row’s only oak-fired steakhouse. Housed in the former site of J.T.S. Brown and Sons’ wholesale warehouse and bottling operations, it’s where the family welled up with pride as their labels became staples in barrooms all over the country. It’s where they fought back tears as Prohibition took everything away. It’s where they soldiered on towards Repeal. This is why we reclaim history by preparing steaks over the flames of oak-aged barrels. This is the place for those with a taste for experience.

The Fair Restaurant 
The Fair Restaurant delivers an elevated dining experience in the heart of downtown New Albany, where thoughtful cuisine and gracious hospitality come together. Our menu highlights carefully crafted dishes made with seasonal ingredients, designed to be both refined and approachable. Set within an elegant yet inviting atmosphere, The Fair is ideal for intimate dinners, celebrations and evenings meant to be savored, where every detail is intentional and every visit feels special.
