18 Best American Restaurants in Bardstown

“I bought this for my husband as an anniversary gift. We went on the Bourbon Excursion and had a fabulous time. Our guide for the evening, Josh, was very knowledgeable about the bourbon industry and pointed out tons of bourbon locations along the way. We also did a bourbon tasting with every course, which was really fun; and were thrilled to get to see Knob Creek with our own eyes. The food was delicious, especially the prime rib, which took up almost the whole plate and I loved the lemon berry cake. Whit was our server and took care of our every need! I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. We definitely will be coming back.“

“Great service Christmas Eve!!!“

“First time in this town. I parked right in front of the enterance. Sat down at the counter. Ordered the special of the day, roast beef. Enjoyed the buttery green beans. Loved the antique chandler. The twins running the place were on top of everything. Great service. It was difficult to not get a slice of pie that was staring at me on the counter. They had several flavors and making the choice was the problem.“

“A must try! Bardstown KY💖“

“We can’t say enough good things about this place. From the moment we walked in, everything was fantastic. We had the pleasure of having Collin make our cocktails, and his knowledge and passion for what he does were evident with every drink. He took the time to guide us through the menu, and you could tell he truly loves his craft.

As for the food, wow. We honestly don’t know where to begin. We ordered the egg salad sandwich, chicken thighs, cheese platter, and hamachi, and every single dish was outstanding. Each plate was thoughtfully prepared, full of flavor, and left us wanting to try everything else on the menu.

A huge thank you to the entire team for such an incredible experience. We can’t wait to come back!“

“Stopped in the other day before a tour at HH. Might have been the best breakfast I ever had. Chicken fried steak was incredible….and those biscuits were fresh and fluffy. If I lived close I might eat there every day. Very friendly and welcoming staff, great atmosphere and decor. I would say its a “must-stop” for anyone visiting the area!“

“food was very good and so were the cocktails. Unfortunately, we got a less than adequate server which limited the experience. I do not blame her as I do the management for putting her out on the floor without being properly trained. She had extremely limited knowledge of the food that they served, how to properly take an order and how to deliver food to the table. All the skills she lacked or basic common sense protocols, and food service.“

“A menu with much breakfast and lunch/dinner variety from which to choose. We were there for breakfast. I got the Golden Waffle meal with scrambled eggs, bacon and waffle. Everything was cooked/prepared perfectly. Our waitress was very nice. A place where we will dine again.“

“I had a great experience at The Grill at Maywood! The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was excellent. Sarah, our server, was absolutely wonderful—friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. I ordered the chicken wrap, and it was delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“The food and bread are amazing. I know people say restaurants have great food and all, but let me put it this way…after a few bites, my non-social media husband asked me “how do I post a review on Yelp?” We will definitely be back.“

“I ate there this weekend, the meatloaf and banana pudding was amazing. Great service as well. We will definitely be back.“

“Just left there…….with our to go food. I went inside and looked at the place, very clean even at the condiments table and drink dispenser. Very pleased with that, and our food was good. The young girl was very pleasant and neat in appearance 👍 I will go back.“

“I tried this place before but my first time at this particular location. I did not like this place the last time I tried it which had been a couple of years ago. I thought i would give it a second chance . Glad I did the wings was great had the atomic with ghost pepper ranch. It was absolutely awesome. Had the sampler for app the onion rings was good pickles was ok and the mozzarella sticks was ok. The girl that served us was not the best In The world. She was friendly. But a little slow on the drinks and was kinda short on A couple of questions we asked. But she was very nice. The visit was good. I would definitely go back.“

“Come back every year and never disappoints! We’d love to see your pickle chips back on the menu though!!! They are the best we’ve had! Love the sour beer flights!“
