In reply to Victor J Lipari. We loved the Kirby House as well and would celebrate Mothers Day, birthdays, anniversaries along with many other occasions. They had the best CFS!!!

In reply to Scott Hayes. We are looking forward to sampling some of the dishes that the new owners bring with them. Should be a marriage of great flavors.

I enjoyed working at Brookville in the kitchen cooking chicken part time. I would welcome that experience again! Great home style chicken.

The Brookville Hotel has been purchased under new ownership and will reopen in Mid June. The people who bought it had a steakhouse in Junction City that burned down so instead of rebuilding it they will be serving chicken and steak at
Brookville in Abilene.

In reply to Paul. That is sad news. I recently saw an article that held a glimmer of hope for its resurrection.

Thank you for such a nice article. I had the opportunity to eat at the original restaurant in Brookville and the new one in Abilene. Unfortunately, the Brookville closed in October 2020, probably a victim of COVID.

Eating at the Brookville Hotel has become a wedding anniversary tradition for us…celebrating there each year. We had fried chicken dinner on our wedding day 53 yrs ago, and have continued eating fried chicken every anniversary. Brookville Hotel has the BEST chicken plus extremely great side dishes.We have made wonderful memories of many years of dinning there on our anniversary…plus we love the atmosphere because I love all the styles of the days past.
