Food and service were great! We were visiting the area from out of town and looking for a diner. This was a great option! Only downside, they are a little hard to find as the sign by the road isn't that big. It seems like it's in a hotel or apartment building.

Saturday September 23rd 2023Yesterday my wife and I were headed home from seeing a friend down in Tennessee.To get off the road for a bit we visited the Kentucky Railway Museum across the street then came over to Howie’s to eat.Howie’s is a nice restaurant. The waitress staff were very nice and the food good.Would definitely recommend a visit both for locals and anyone passing through the area.

The waitress couldn't have been more friendly and attentive. I didn't have anything special, just a grilled ham & cheese, with tater tots, but they were delicious. It appeared that a lot of locals go there, which is always a good sign. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone passing through town.

What a value! Chicken strips were tasty and the special was amazing. These prices are from 15 years ago. Go there before they realize it….lol…

Drove by the place as it looked inside an old motel, but don't let that fool you. Got there just after 1130 ( breakfast ended at 1130) so we got lunch. The chicken strip and fries were hot and good, and they gave you a healthy portion. My husband had a mushroom burger that he enjoyed. Downsides were it wasn't air conditioned ( went July 5th -- it was hot) and unsure if allowed smoking inside as it had a low odor. Good food off the beaten track.

Burger was simple but good and all menu items were very affordable. Customer service is lacking big time. Ladies always seem mad your there and in the verge of being rude either during call in orders or when picking up.

I absolutely loved this place, visited during a busy time during Thomas the train day and it was absolutely lovely to be there. The servers definitely were amazing during it, they got this. Great job ladies!! My friend and I had gotten BLT's and the hot ham and cheese with fries and a house salad. Everything was fresh, delicious and big portions. If I'm ever in the area I'd def. go back. Parking lot was somewhat limited on a busy day but the servers said it's usually not that busy!! I'm also not from around there either, from Michigan, so as an outsider they made me feel really welcomed! My best regards LindseyKid-friendliness: They have diff options for kids. Also on reg. Menu there's options that aren't expensive as well ?

We were travelling through after visiting Lincoln boyhood home and found this place in an old hotel. We stopped and had a burger and fries and really enjoyed the food and the service. Great local place to eat if travelling through New Haven...beautiful little town and area also.
I have then coming to Howie's or some restaurant of Lill's since I was a little girl, she never ceases to amaze me on how good her food actually is and the atmosphere is always fun to be in you always run into somebody but you know Small Town restaurant at its best!

Nice, friendly people. Sometimes there's a long wait for your food. Clean, down home environment...

Great low-key local spot with made to order food at very reasonable prices. Yummy fried green tomatoes and giant brownies. Very friendly service even to us out-of-town tourists finishing up the Bourbon Trail.

Rating this for what it is, a small town restaurant. The food was delicious, the service was great, and the prices were unbelievable low. If it were closer to home, I would go regularly.
