17 Best American Restaurants near Brookport

“Great place! We were looking for a bar with similar atmosphere to our snall town bar and found it at River Bottoms! The owner and her cook were very welcoming and friendly. We had great conversations and would definitely go back. Ordered a pizza to go and it was amazing!!“

“Great location, service was excellent, beer was not bad. Now, the burger? One of the best damned burgers I have ever eaten! It was huge! Moist and flavorful. The bun obviously was sourced from a local bakery. If you find yourself in Paducah, KY, stop in here and enjoy the beer, but FALL IN LOVE WITH THE BURGER!! My wife loved the chicken tenders too. The Parmesan fries were to die for! Don't even get us started on the chocolate pie!“

“We enjoyed eating here. I had the Three Pigs sandwich with pork loin, spiced bacon and ham, but the Apple chutney made the difference. The potato, broccoli and cheddar soup was like scalloped potatoes with broccoli and an excellent side item. Sweet waitresses took care of us. It didn't hurt that there were tons of great looking backed goods and casseroles to go.“

“Freight House is our favorite place that we ate at this week! My husband and I will definitely eat at this amazing restaurant everytime we drive through Paducah, Kentucky! It was such a cool place to chill out, relax and eat delicious food! What more could a person possibly ask for! Our waitress was great as well! Thank you!“

“My favorite place to eat when I am in town. The staff are friendly and personable, they genuinely care and want to make your day brighter. The service is good, usually fast but sometimes slower if they are busy. My food is always hot and accurate. I highly recommend this place.“

“Had the Friday special Ribeye.My table ordered specifically 2 Ribeye steaks, both ordered between medium and medium well and it came out pretty much cooked well. The grill master did replace the steaks with 2 that were cooked correctly. The server(s) were a little weak.Great seasoning on the last 2 steaks.“

“Have went there more than once following the hours they say they are open, like again yesterday , got there at 2:48 pm , counted on them for dinner to be open til 3 , like the sign says , ..they were closed.Food is excellent , it's just getting your hands on it.The hours for to buy for dinner are done so early to begin with , so should stay open the hours they say they will.Had drove from Vienna to there.May not ever go back , has happened before“

“So. There's something about doing simple things extraordinarily well. Like others we stopped based on the limited reviews and owner photos. Unlike others we had other plans. We planned to go to the Freight House. But Atlanta traffic had us arriving 10 minutes before they closed. So we called Driftwood and their kitchen closed later. So we came. We have younger preteen kids. Not allowed inside. But it was nice weather and their outdoor area has bags, seating and really cool well paint d motifs. The bartender tonight was attentive, kind, funny and competent. We ordered two ribeyes, a stir fry and a basic grilled cheese. Everything was great. And. No fault to Freight House-dirt cheap by comparison. For the price it was one of the best ribeyes I've ever eaten. No need for steak sauce. The stir fry was delicious too. Even the simple mac and cheese side of was done great. Food wise they KNOW what they're doing. If I lived here I would eat here regularly and the locals seem to know that. Not a Freight House. Doesn't need to be. This was great. Complaints. Post your menu. Anywhere. Never mind. I did. Stipulate that it's 21+ only inside. We have kids. It was nice weather. But if it wasn't I'd be pissed.“

“I have only good things to say about Flamingo Row! The decor is fun and bright, the servers are prompt and friendly, and everything I've eaten there has been great! I highly recommend the Caribbean Dip sandwich with potato salad. The nachos are wonderful as well, I recommend the beef nachos. Ribeye sandwich is good, the stuffed bread sandwiches are good. A waitress named "Crash" (she says that's her real name!) has been there for decades and is awesome! Love her!“

“We found Mel's Dinner after Kirchhoff's Bakery let us down, and we are so thankful they did! Mel's is a hidden breakfast gem that is crazy affordable and crazy delicious!! The hashbowns were perfectly salted, the biscuits were soft and fluffy; we best fried egg we had ever had, and coffee that hit just the right spot. Thank you, Mel's, for helping us start our trip back home in such an amazing way!!“

“Tried Culver's for the first time tonight, and it was an oasis in 19 hours of eclipse traffic! The food was good, the employees were nice, and the patio vibe was lit.Plus it was the first time on this trip that I got to use a chill, clean bathroom without angry patrons waiting in line. Like even the other customers seemed really happy here!“

“Found this cafe searching for a place to eat while in Paducah visiting the NQM and so glad I did! Staff werevery friendly, excellent service. And we had nothing but compliments for the food. The boiler room beef sliderswere perfectly cooked, delicious. There's a nice outdoor patio available or comfortable seating indoors too.Definitely will be back!“

“I ate here with my mom midday a few weeks ago. Food was really good. Nice selection. Good seasoning. They had a standard “southern spread” with a lot of fried or heavy foods. Salad bar was nothing to write home about but you don’t go to a place like Big Ed’s for the salad. Banana pudding was good too. We’ll definitely go again.“

“We zipped into Harned's for a quick lunch. The service was very good. They come out and take your order or you can eat inside. We had their famous hoagies, fries, and onion rings. It was delicious! Family owned and operated. Check online for their hours as they seem to be open at different times during the year. The food came out quick, well put together, and hot. We spent about 12$ per person.“

“Great little bar next to the motel we stayed at. We were in town for the eclipse and this was our go to in evenings. Food was great, drinks were strong and family owned bar and they were great. Highly recommend eating and drinking here if in town!“

“I visit Paducah about 2 or 3 times a year and this is my favorite salad in the world...Curtis Salad. It was 15 minutes until they closed...I called and ask and they said come on down..they set me up I had my salad and they were AMAZINGLY kind. Great service great food...House of Grace is a "no miss" place in ?️ “

“Awesome experience, and hard to imagine how cheap everything was! An entire breakfast for 4 people for under $37, and we ate like kings. Would be nice to hire an additional server and have French vanilla cream for the coffee, but those are minor issues. If I ever find my way into Metropolis again, I’ll be sure to stop by.“
