OMG. That has to be the Most. Annoying. Website. Design. Ever.

Does anyone know the specifics of what is acceptable as a box lunch to take into the Downs and what is not?

Clear containers. No alcohol.

Butcher's Best in Prospect will be doing deli sandwich boxed lunches for derby. Choice of Ham/Turkey/Roast beef, with Swiss or American, fully garnished on a hoagie roll with a choice of Macaroni Salad or Potato Salad, BBQ or plain chips, a cookie, and a bottled water, all for the bargain basement price of $7.99 each!!!

Studio's Grille & Pub in New Albany can do box lunches. Tell us what you would like and we will figure the costs (always reasonable) and expedite your orders.

We've been toying with the idea of doing some vegetarian boxed lunches for Derby at Sweet Surrender. We have offered a dessert box in years past but thought it might be fun to offer something different. That is, if people are actually interested in vegetarian boxed lunches... If so let me know, and I'll post more info.

Meridian Cafe will have box lunches for Derby week.


Includes:
Deli style sandwich
Spicy sweet potato chips
dill pickle
Double Chocolate brownie
for dessert

All lunches are packaged in Churchill Downs approved boxes!

24 hours notice preferable

Both Stevens & Stevens Deli and Lilly's do a killer box lunch. Love them both equally.

I saw ad advertisement this weekend that Crave Cafe (on Frankfort Ave.) will be doing derby approved box lunches.

They're allowing coolers this year.

Just an FYI - you CAN bring coolers, but only through certain entrances. So, if you're not planning on packing much in your cooler, you may want to reconsider. Otherwise, you may be standing in line for a long time, even for a very tiny cooler. Who knows though: the cooler lines may also move very swiftly.
