Breakfast as it should be. Pancakes were light and fluffy, eggs cooked perfectly. The standout was the Fried Green Tomatoes. Can't wait for another trip to go back.

Service is SLOW. I was warned that they were behind due to a barrage of phone and internet orders. Staff were pleasant but they need to solve the food traffic issues in the kitchen. Food was OK, not worth a 45 minute wait.

The atmosphere was great. The staff were so caring. The amount of food on your plate was huge and the food was great. Next time we go I am going to get the waffle bread

The hostess doesn't acknowledge you until it's your turn to be seated. Usually a restaurant will greet you and provide a time frame for getting a table when you get there, not the case at Gold Rush Cafe. The food prepared on the flat top was ok, the bread pudding waffle was delicious, the golden eggs were burnt and cooked in old oil. Our server was good, friendly and attentive.

Gravy and biscuits are very different to most others serving them. Pancakes needs a new brand of mix and bacon shouldn’t be fried so far ahead makings it taste old.

We try to get to this restaurant every month or so. We appreciate the friendly waitstaff and enjoy the cute & funny decor. About the food, my favorite is the Bread Pudding Waffles, and my husband has several favorites but this time he got the Golden Eggs (2 hard-boiled eggs wrapped in ground sausage then panko breaded and deep fried). They also have excellent coffee. The only downside for us is that they close at 2, and there have been a few times we forgot and tried to go there later in the day! They also have more typical breakfast and lunch foods, we just seem to always order breakfast foods there. If you are in Paducah, check them out - you won't be disappointed!

Got seated fairly quick. Then saw other customers seated after us getting their drinks and food ordered before we had to ask for help. And when confronted they stood there like a deer in the headlights. No people skills.

My first time going here. We waited for 20 mins at the table without any service. The staff forgot about us. I will not be returning to this establishment ever. This is disappointing considering the so many good things I heard about this place.

Great classic diner in Downtown Paducah. Perfect stop on the route between St Louis and Nashville.
This is a cute little place. We had the breakfast. The biscuits are amazing and the hashbrown casserole was also very good. The sausage was not spiced enough for our tastes, but if you like a milder, more subtle pork flavor, you may like it. The service was friendly and quick.

The first time we wanted something differentAnd it was my husband had some kind of burger and then we shared fried Green tomatoes for the App was very good I had never had any I thought they were going to be bad. I had fried apples and bread pudding mini waffles I had never had bread pudding before and I expected this to be so sweet when I saw it but it was delicious.
