The place was packed so we ended up having to sit on the porch and it was freezing cold. But the food was amazing.

We typically stop here during our trips to Frankfurt Bourbonland, Buffalo Trace and J Mattingly. Hubby had fish sandwich, which was huge. Shelby's has awesome hamburgers, and do take 15 minutes to cook. This visit I had the soup beans and cornbread special. The soupbeans didnt have a lot of flavor and were very runny. The hamburger would have been a better decision. They have a wide variety of desserts, however, we are always too full. We will be back!

Seriously such an incredible little gem hidden away in a strip mall. Criminally underrated!

The people here are so kind and personable, and the food is some of the best I've had in KY. The food feels homemade in the best way, and it's so affordable!! There are usually specials going on, changing with each day of the week.

My partner and I always get an enormous amount of fresh made fries with our hamburgers. We get a drink each, all of which totals to $33 or so. Our food has been cooked perfectly each time. We leave feeling full and needing naps when we get home, lol.

Also, I really really love how they promote local businesses on their TVs and have cards for local businesses lined up at the register.

I would love if eventually the diner gets comfier chairs or booths, and if they provide napkin stands at the tables since sometimes the servers are (understandably) busy and can't get to wipe down each table in time before you seat yourself.

I hope Shelby's stays around for a loooooong time, this might be my partner's and my favorite restaurant in the city.

Food was all freshly made to order . They need another TV to watch while eating. Very small diner but a good place to go .

Kid-friendliness: A small place , kids can't run around.

Philly was very tasty and fries were great after salt but the bread could have been toasted to not fall apart.. but oh so tasy!
