Restaurants in Bardstown

“We spent three days in Louisville/Bardstown and The Bar at Willet was the best place of the whole trip. This is in no small part to our excellent bartender Luciano. We split a few different items on the menu but definitely get the egg salad sandwich. They have a few different fancy food items but they are all approachable and tasty. On top of the great bourbon flight recommendations, Luciano was incredibly knowledgeable in regards to spirits in general, and made what our group agreed was the best Manhattan any of us has ever had.

Definitely book ahead - they were turning people away at the door.”

“The couple behind the bar pairs beautifully with the juice! Their knowledge and insight really is fantastic and some of the best times on the bourbon trail come from here!!”

“By far the best burger I’ve had in my life! Everything was hot, fresh, and seasoned to perfection. The host and hostess were both courteous, and helpful. Definitely going to return. Again, and again and again, the best burger ever”

“My mother, my daughter and I attended the Princess Tea Party event and it was amazing. The atmosphere was full of laughter, excitement and shyness from the audience as everyone met those in character as prince and princesses. Before the train ride, there were multiple stations to entertain kids of all ages including a crown decoration station, a face painting station, a photo op station, the gift shop that had many princess accessories options and the bar that had themed alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages for purchase.

The train ride was smooth as we rode through country and city. The tables were decorated like a tea party should with cups ready for tea and water. A 3 course meal was served: a charcuterie board and a lunch all before a dessert tower of treats to eat before getting off the train. During the whole train ride, there were 4 different princesses that greeted each of the attendees, posing for photos and having a personalized conversation with each person. It was truly magical. I foresee us going again soon.

My only regret was that the lunch special was not as exciting as I was hoping it was going to be, but the experience we had with the lovely staff and the princesses helped compensate the lack of flavor in the food, which was none of the workers’ fault. (I had to put into consideration that the train ride itself was maybe an hour and a half maximum so crazy fancy meals were not going to be expected.)

Will recommend for others! We hope to try the Polar Express train experience soon.

Parking: We got there early enough to get close parking, but the whole parking lot wasn’t large to where you would be walking a long time to the door. Parking seemed a little close together, but if you’re considerate about space, you won’t hit other cars getting out.

Kid-friendliness: There is a gift shop available for all kids to look at souvenirs while adults look for souvenirs too. The staff were courteous, friendly and helpful.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp for you to gain access to the train depot building where there is hardwood floor inside.”

“I went to Freddy’s in Milford, OH and the drive-thru guy was SUPER FRIENDLY!!! His name was Justin! He was very welcoming and helpful and super cheerful which helped because I was having a not so good day and it cheered me up a bit! I highly recommend this location!”

“Great smash burger and very fast service! New potatoes are to die for! All bartenders and wait staff are exceedingly friendly!”

“nearly everything I ordered wasn't right. it was horrible and part of what I ordered online wasn't available and no refund could be issued. I submitted a complaint and can't wait to share photos once there is a response being no one would answer the store phone. ***I would like to edit this to say I have been, in a very timely manner, contacted by general management, and we look forward to a great experience in the future.”

“We recommend Liam and Ash, simply for their customer service, and their variety of spirits and cocktails! We recently went to Liam and Ash, for a little Valentines Day cocktail and dessert Love. Everyone is always so welcoming and helpful, especially when you inquire about a particular cocktail or spirit. The waitstaff is quick to give you the necessary information, you need to choose a cocktail based on your preferences. They will also suggest something new, if you're in an adventurous mood. Their food is always flavorful and pairs well with whatever libation you might be sipping on. Liam and Ash provides an upscale and cozy atmosphere, and has quickly become our go to for a after dinner drink, or a date night special. Definitely recommend stopping in!!!”

“I ordered fish, greens, green beans, hush puppies and Mac and cheese from here the other day and all I can say is take my money! The prices are way cheaper than anywhere else, including fast food and the food is better than a sit down restaurant. It was so incredibly amazing. I was in a food induced coma all day and have craved it since. If you haven’t tried this place, please do! Best meal I’ve had in ages!”

“Great Food friendly waiters would recommend”

“Traveling back to Pa. We went a little out of our way through Bardstown. Well worth it. Excellent taco fajita & steak fajita”

“Never been to Bardstown before, but suggested to eat here for lunch at one of the shops. I'm so glad we did! The inside is cozy with cute decor and a beautiful emarld couch at the table near the door. The service was fast and the food was out quickly. We ate the lunch special, and it was delicious! We did have to ask for a refill on our drinks, but I was impressed with small town Cafe. We will most certainly be back for more. ?”

“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… BEST LUNCH SPOT IN BARDSTOWN! I am a regular here and it is consistently delicious and FRESH I usually get the chicken salad on a herbed wrap and their pasta salad side. Both items are top notch. Today I ordered: Chix salad wrap with seasonal side salad combo. Also, a Chirro latte. It was all🔥 The salad was so delicious and unique.

Oh, and thier cinnamon rolls are also phenomenal Keep doing what your doing and I’m a Customer for life.💜”

“One of the best steakhouses I've ever been to. My ribeye was cooked perfectly, but the atmosphere and the service was impeccable. I'm traveling without my family right now, so I just sat at the bar, but hands down it was the best bartender and best service that I've had in a long time. I wish we had places like this in Indiana.”
