Kentucky Artisan Center

What a great place to see so much beautiful art! Beautiful entrance with seating and art all around before you enter. As you enter there is a very helpful staff person who can answer lots of Berea questions and tourist guides. Then the art, they have everything from metal to silk to food to books. I loved the fiber arts section, beautiful silk scarves and wraps and toys. Paintings and wall sculptures made of everything. So much local KY art it was amazing!
I highly recommend visiting. If you want to buy something take a chunk of change! Honoring the artist is on the agenda here.
They also have a coffee and lunch bar in the back.

A great stop if you're interested in fine arts and crafts! It's also a nice alternative to the typical rest stop – you'll find clean bathrooms, a café, a visitor information center and a remarkable, large gift shop featuring art, books and crafts from throughout Kentucky.

I stopped for a rest stop for myself and my pet. I'm so glad I did. The place is amazing. There is so much to look at there from various artists. If you're into gardening, birds, cooking or anything outdoors and home decorating this is definitely worth the stop.

Great clean place to stop on I75 south. They have tables outside to eat your own food at and restrooms nearby. Art gallery is a cool touch for a place to rest while traveling

What a beautiful place to visit and look for the one of a kind piece of art. All kinds of mediums are used to create some of the most unusual art. We also ordered a huge sausage biscuit and cheese breakfast sandwich that weighed over a pound ...it was delicious. We also ordered the grilled chicken BLT wrap which has a complete salad including cucumbers! OMG! What a delicious wrap!

Kentucky resident artists display their art and crafts here. Similar to a museum, but the pieces are for sale. Most of it is quite decent, and some is rather excellent. Very welcoming atmosphere, and the gallery is larger than just the front entry. There are also some steel sculptures outside off of the outside veranda.

This is always a 'stop along the way' but really is more like an experience we remember and look forward to repeating. They sell the most interesting, unique, great quality, beautiful artistic things. The facility is well staffed and has a good cafe offering a good variety of food and drink.

Kentucky Artisan Center is one of the finest travel centers I have ever visited. We were warmly greeted by both hosts on duty and gained valuable insights about Berea and Berea College. Two unique offerings are the cafe (we only glanced at it) and the gift shop filled with spectacular works of art and craft. Restrooms are sparkling clean. The travel center is spacious. Parking is plentiful. Travel brochures and magazines abound. Well worth a stop every time we pass its exit.

This provided us with a welcome, much needed break from our travels. The Center provides food and clean restrooms with much parking. But it also is a craft store that promotes Kentucky and its artists. Gas stations are close by when you arrive or leave.

Perfect location for a pit stop when you're on a road trip. It's next to the freeway with toilets and café on site. Beautiful arts and crafts of large selection. Quiet, relaxing atmosphere. Not suitable for young kids.

Tons of adorable arts and crafts to look at. Something for everyone, from jewelry, pottery, baskets and journals to paintings, metal art, food and ornaments. Really anything you're into.

RV parking available! Also, we had the most delicious fried bologna sandwich and derby pie in the food court! Nice place to stretch my legs, mind and belly during a Roadtrip!

Very nice place. Most creations are made by local artists. They have a Cafe but it's been closed when we are there . I think it closes at 3pm. First timers could easily spend 2 to 3 hours there. They sell various jams, jellies, and chocolates.

Awesome selection of arts and crafts from local artists/artisans. Great place to shop for gifts. They have cards, art prints, jams and sauces, soap, jewelry, candles, knick-knacks..they also sell drinks and some candies and have an in-house cafe with a small menu of food offerings. I like stopping here when I'm driving past because they also have clean bathrooms!

Fun stop just off of I-75. It’s an interesting art museum/ store with a cafe and public restrooms. All of the art is interesting and for sale, we enjoyed looking at the pieces and even bought a couple. There’s also a dog-walk area outside, and outside picnic seating. All around, it was a great stop. I’ll probably return next time I’m passing through.

The place is great to stop to take in art, stretch, have a walk. They have immaculate restrooms and the people that work there are great!!! It's not a stop for truckers, but if you're in something other than a semi, it's worth checking out!!! The art is very intriguing, from welding art to paintings, woodworking art, and beaded jewelry art, this place is magnificent and everytime I've been through there, it's never busy!!!! I love it and will stop everytime I pass by!!!

One of my favorite places to stop for a break on a roadtrip. Stellar opportunity to browse local artisans' work, purchase unique items, & great food in the cafeteria-style restaurant in the back.

The portions are substantial, the food quality is fantastic & made to order, and the pricing is reasonable. Highly recommend a pit stop here for lunch on your next road trip.

Beautiful works of art from local artisans and a place to take a quick break if you're driving a distance!

There is always great art to see & buy. I always find something that I need to take home. The food at the cafe is yummy too.
Good place to stop, stretch your legs and enjoy the many items made in Berea.

I have been here a number of times when passing by on road trips. I love to come in here, stretch my legs, and browse. And I typically always find something to buy (usually handmade soaps). Staff is friendly and restrooms are clean.

Great place to restroom, get something to eat, look @ Kentucky artisan crafts.Pearl & Braden are awesome staff!
