“The chicken is the best in Kentucky. The green beans were country style and awesome. Then the mashed potatoes with bacon and pepper gravy was awesome also. I definitely recommend this place.

“This is a antique shop, not sure about the food. I just want to express my mother passed away 2 years ago. People had stolen valuables from her home that she worked so hard for, cherished. My mother never bothered a soul, very private, great all around American citizen. Due to my poor judgement trying to help friends in need they were stealing my mother's things and taking them to this antique shop to sell them cost irrelevant they should have never been stolen and or sold. I, 1st time walked in this shop with a friend and spotted immediately my late mothers dishes etc. I panicked, want real sure who, how, why they were there. I immediately notified the purchasing rep (owner) Tiffany told her my story. Without question, care, concern she immediately started boxing, bagging ALL of my mother's things. I offered to pay her. She absolutely refused any amount of money. No questions etc she expressed her sympathy, she expressed her unaware. She stated to me description without name as she also stated she would not ever sell to this couple again. That was a very kind gesture as she did not have to take any type of loss. She is a business woman her honesty will forever hold a special place in my heart as she will be rewarded 10 fold for her good deeds. It's hard these days to trust people. Tiffany you rock sister. I will shout it from the roof tops and suggest everyone I know to shop at your cute little antique, botique shop love to all. Xoxo“

This year was particularly special because after we had our delicious meal the manager and I didn't get his name came over and said that lunch was on the house and therefore I needed to not pay a thing! This was so very special for my fiance and I and he and the staff were so polite and courteous this restaurant definitely has the utmost respect by us and from what I'm hearing several other people that I know love coming here! I will definitely be back! The food is just amazing and perfectly done! I would say the eagle is by far my favorite place to enjoy a nice lunch or dinner!! Very professional staff“

Have had it a few times before, but this time, it looked like a bowl filled with orange-ish cheese, was entirely too thick, and had long pieces (instead of chunks) of potato with not much flavor. Disappointing.“
