“This is my absolute favorite place in Bowling Green .. My gang and I are regulars here, and they have the sweetest crew in the world .. ❤️“

“The food was incredible. The staff were friendly. The portions were very generous. The owner even came out to say Happy Anniversary to me and my wife.“

“We had never tried Culver's before and were looking for something easy and quick. The order process was easy, place the order, go sit down, someone will deliver your order to your table. All of our food was hot and tasty. Portion sizes were also reasonable. The patty melts were delicious, my hamburger and fries were good. The onion rings were also good and almost too hot to eat initially. I did have a cement mixer on the way out ... I / we (4) will be back for more.“

“Dawson was a wonderful server! Very attentive and quick! and great personality.

Parking: Lots of room to park. Will definitely be back! We drive from Tennessee to Kentucky just to eat at this restaurant. Well worth the drive.“

“The food was delicious and filling, we had to get to-go box for leftovers.“

“We are not from the area and wanted to eat local. This place did not disappoint! Lauren the bartender was great! The nachos, Buffalo chicken Mac & cheese and even the house salad were absolutely amazing!!! Serving sizes were perfect and prices were beyond reasonable! We hope to be back in the future to try the hot dogs and eat at Rafferty’s (same owner). We were fortunate to eat at Montana Grill as well this trip (also same owner and food was also fantastic there).“

“The stingray burger was great and fries were nice and crunchy. We split the burger and had the bourbon bread pudding with ice cream. It was so good. Will definitely be back next time we are up this way. Sammy D. our server was excellent and was helpful with recommendations.“

“we ate there for the first time yesterday and all 5 of us cleaned our plates! SUCH good food and service! highly recommended!“

“The food is superb, great live music, lots of TV's to catch the game, quick service and friendly bartenders.

Kid-friendliness: There were kids there when I was there. I would say bring the kids during the day.

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps, double doors for wide entrance, layout leaves plenty of room to wheel around, and bathrooms are handicap accessible.“

“Not far off interstates- WORTH THE DETOUR! Pull over for some delicious, well cooked, tasty food. Good portions. Definitely the “BANG FOR YOUR BUCK “ budget friendly pricing. Good service. Homestyle goodness. The catfish is DIVINE. The veggies are full of flavor.“

“your burgers look good, but I'd rather have my burgers cooked over a flame. less greasy that way which gives the burger a better taste. other than that, I just got a medium vanilla cone. it hit the spot.“

“It has a renovated appearance so it has a more modern vibe.
It has all the normal things you'd expect in a hotel. The reception was alright.
The thing that would make me choose a different hotel was that my room faced the back of the hotel and the smoking/sitting area was beneath my room and people were naturally chatting, watching something loud on their phones..... And I could hear it all with the sliding door closed. I find the people weren't being excessively loud.... It's just a bad setup of how noise travels to rooms in that area.
I didn't try the pool, gym, breakfast or bar so no comment on those. Like the other hotels in this block the bonus is that you can walk across the parking lot and access restaurants which is a pleasant feature. I've stayed here multiple times and I'd say it's quite satisfactory and clean. No hesitation to come again

Safety: The sliding door had a bar to block it.

Walkability: Walk to nearby restaurants through the parking lot.“

“I sometimes eat here at the cafe in the morning for breakfast. It is an awesome buffet in the morning and always great food. Staff is always warm and friendly. I would recommend this to anyone either staying at the hotel, or just wanting to enjoy a great breakfast buffet. Just remember when the hotel is full to realize there will be a wait, but most other times you can get set pretty easily. So, for sure check this place out!“

“Grear Place and Great food, was amazing. Wife loved this restaurant. Will definitely be back next time in Bowling Green Ky.“

“Dined at Cheddar’s on a Wednesday night. It was at 4 pm so we were seated quickly. Our server was prompt, and our meals came out quickly. You can’t beat the complimentary croissants, and the a Wisconsin cheese curds were a great appetizer. My chicken fried chicken was cooked to perfection. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.“

“We traveled for a wedding and stopped at Montana Grille for dinner the night before. We do a lot of fine dining and I will say this is a gem. Our server Peyton was knowledgeable and made some great recommendations, she kept our dinks full, meals were out in a timely matter, food was hot and was seasoned well, prices were very good. If you are traveling around Bowling Green, KY it's worth the trip.“

“One of the best restaurants in this town! Never had a bad meal or bad service. Hot brown is best in town“

“We dined at The Bistro Thursday 12-2-2022. We sat at the bar which we found to be warm and cozy . Our server was Kelan . Kelan was our bartender, waiter, and food advisor. Kelan was spot on with his recommendations . We found the wedge and Caesar salads to be delicious. The chicken piccata was superb as was black grouper. The dessert, chocolate Bailey’s mousse cake was mouth watering! Kelan’s service, efficiency , and friendliness were a delight to experience . Thanks to Kelan! Dick and Sue“

“We enjoyed the steaks, sampled several sides and deserts. Everything was delicious!!! My favorite was the bread with the cheese and honey, I could have made a meal out of it alone. The beer cheese and the pimento, country ham wontons were delicious as well. Several Broadbent products were incorporated into the selections. All of those were outstanding. Great Experience! Loved our waitress and beautiful atmosphere!“

“We tried them for the first time today. The food and service were both amazing.“

“I ordered the pork chops n they were a lil chewy! So needless to say, I won't order them again! The other food was ok! I really love Cracker Barrel , what I don't like is getting warmed over biscuits sometimes when their trying to get rid of them, n food that's a bit tuff n hard to chew!“

“We had a great server I didn’t catch his name but he was so great and polite it was a great first time experience and the strawberry lemonade amazing!!!“

“Just gotta say the staff makes the experience, friendly out going and quick to serve. Had breakfast twice at this location and the service was consistently good!“

“Breakfast is a great start with classics such as biscuits and gravey, tenderloin biscuits, bacon and eggs. everything is hot and as requested. First time having the fish for dinner and I was impressed with it but the slaw was incredible. Nice to have a restaurant in the area with good service and good food.“

“We went tonight for husband's birthday. We had a great dinner. Everything was delicious. Our waitress was Cassandra. She was great! If we needed ANYTHING she got it in a timely manner. She had several tables but she was on top of her game!“

“We had a great experience at this Waffle House, waitresses and cook were super friendly, and when the power went out in the entire area due to the snowstorm, they still treated us exceptionally. When we left, they made sure we had to go coffees.“

“Me and my husband came in starving and Liz, the bartender, recommended the mini-cheeseburgers ($8.00 Special). Came with all the fixin's and fries. We've never had a better burger -seasoned well, juicy and hot! Highlight of our trip from south Al to east NY“

“Fantastic fries, bangin' burgers. Super friendly staff; I asked for a recommendation and he asked how hungry I was. Love it. I was very hungry. But no longer.

Had the food truck at White Squirrel. Would eat again if I'm ever back in BG.“

“Best Waffle House I’ve ever been to! I was pleasantly surprised with our experience. The food was cooked exactly to order. The most impressive part was that the service was better than what I’ve had in years at any restaurant. Every seat was full and the waitress was so attentive she made us feel like the only ones there.“

“Been picking up door dash orders from various locations and finally trying it. This is about the best chicken tenders I've had. Ranch is good too. My order was hot, fast, and yummy!“

“The food was good but our server is what made the experience top notch. She was all over everything! She's a keeper! Sarah with the cute black hair and amazing smile. Keep up the excellent service.“

“I had the buffalo chicken pizza which was phenomenal and the fried shrimp appetizer which was just ok. The free wing that comes with the pizza was delicious and very crispy. I would highly recommend giving this place a try if you're in the area.“

“First time going here tonight and we will be back! The food was great. The margarita was better than mine. The server was awesome.“

“The food is delicious and the service is fantastic! A friend recommended that my husband and I give this Captain D's another try after we hadn't gone for several years. So glad we did! Management is doing a great job of keeping on top of things. I hope that continues. :)“

“Excellent dining experience! We have been patrons of Shogun since they first came to BG! Thank you Ronnie for all of your hard work and customer service!“
