Big Wally's is one of the better ice cream restaurants that I've been to. You can either sit down…read moreat their bar, one of their tables inside or out, or you take a walk in beautiful downtown Bardstown. When you walk in, you are greeted by old fashioned flooring and old fashioned decorations, which really sets the scene as a "back in the day" kind of restaurant. Workers are polite and efficient and it usually only takes them one to two minutes to finish all orders from a party average of four. You should really only go there for their ice cream, but their savory food options aren't bad either. Overall really nice place. I've recommended it to a lot of people.

Well I'm glad we stopped here. I love it! My jalapeño burger is perfectly spicy. The chili cheese fries are great. My daughter is usually picky about chicken tenders but she likes them and of course she loves her dirt and worms cup. The girls at the front were very friendly and the food came out fast. The tables were all clean. I have no complaints. Definitely will be a go to stop when we come into town again.

On the way back from Louisville my 15 year old son wanted to eat hear based on what he heard about it. I figured it wouldn't hurt me to try it either. The food was really good! I got #1 combo-double meat burger with cheese lettuce onion pickle. I loved how they did the pickle slices. I liked how thin the burgers were. I don't typically eat fries either, but these shoestring style were good. My son got a bacon cheeseburger and he loved his as well. For desert I tried a chocolate milk shake and my son had a brownie concrete. I have never had such a chocolate experience. After trying one of their shakes I don't know how anyone could have one from McDonald's. Now, it will probably be months before I come here again or I may never, just because I don't regularly consume this type of fare, but it gets a 10/10 for me and for sure would eat this before McDonald's or Burger King or any other fast food! The service was relatively quick around 12:30pm on Wednesday. The drive thru line was long so we went in and there wasn't a wait. We had to wait a little bit for our ice cream but I understand that is due to how they make it. The staff was friendly and I liked the interior. I noticed an electric outlet at each booth and they had custard in a freezer to go. They have outdoor seating which looked nice too.

Mammy's was the best meal I had in my 4 day visit to the area! We came pretty late at night after a…read morelong day of bourbon tasting in the area, and we were all starving. We sat at the bar because it was still pretty packed. The place was fun - the service was a bit silly in a good way. Great cocktails. Great ambiance and decor. My bourbon-grilled pork chops were fantastic. Good cornbread. Green beans were fantastic. The fried apples were just okay - a bit on the dry side. My friend's chicken and waffles looked amazing. Another friend's ribeye looked a bit overdone to me, but he seemed to like it. I wish the souvenir store was still open when we were there (it closed at 6pm) because I would have liked to bring home a trinket or shirt. Maybe upon next visit - because I will definitely eat here again the next time I'm in Bardstown. Make it a priority to stop in!

Baskin Robbins had recently done a major renovation so we thought we'd give it a try. The location was in really bad shape before and had a horrible reputation. The visit was quite comical. We noticed the nice shiny new ice creams cases. But while we were waiting, an employee was already having trouble with one, as the glass lid wasn't closing properly as it was going cockeyed. Another employee comes over and closes it, commenting that it is a piece of garbage. He went back to scooping form the case on the other side. He was wearing a headset for the drive thru. It broke while he was scooping ice cream. The big padded earpiece went INTO THE ICE CREAM. No big deal. He just took it out and kept scooping. I ordered a chocolate malt. I watched the other guy make it and there was no malt mix used. He handed it to me and I asked if there was malt mix in it as I couldn't taste it. He replied with "malt?" He had no idea what it was. The guy with the broken headset spoke up and said they haven't taught malts yet. So he told the guy where the malt mix was and how much to add. Since I had already taken a sip they remade it from scratch. While he waited for the SINGLE blender in the place, the girl using the blender was complaining about it not working so headset guy comes over, takes the blender off the base, bangs it on the counter a few times and puts it back on. This is NEW equipment. The woman in line in front of me had a QR code from the app for a BOGO Sundae. The store has no QR code scanner yet. Headset guy, which I figured was the manager at this point, had to stop what he was doing and apply the discount manually in the register. The whole time my wife, who already has her ice cream, is noticing customers in line leaving because they had been waiting so long. The malt I finally received was the runniest malt I've ever had. My wife was nearly done with her double scoop by the time I got it. New, but faulty equipment, untrained employees, poor product quality and long wait times. Needless to say this wasn't what we expected from a fully renovated location that had been open for 2-3 weeks now. The manager was very nice, and he dealt professionally with the other workers and was patient with them as well. All the workers were very nice as well despite not having proper training. That's about the only positive from the visit. We will stick with Big Wally's going forward.

However , the upscale , odd menu of the restaurant didn't appeal to me, but I needed something to go with my old fashioned so I chose the bread pudding desert. It was good, but instead of coming with a bourbon sauce, it came with a balsamic based one. Why?? Our server wisely warned us us and we both asked for it ion the side. Good choice, it didn't belong with the chocolate bread pudding. The tour of this distillery was great, I just wish the restaurant could have some more normal choices and a choice or two for for vegetarians. It's not only meat eaters that drink bourbon. I sure won't choose this as a dinner or lunch spot again. It's a real shame that I was forced to rate the 2 together, as they clearly aren't in the same class. The restaurant is a 2 at best.

Um, when I double checked where it was, I noticed the close at 7?!?? So we left as soon as we could and got there at 6:35 and yes,, they close at 7:00. But the one waiter there was fine with seating us and he did a good job and was so nice and calm. The place reminded mr of old school supper club type places your grandparents would take you too. Nothing splashy but cute. Upstairs there was a bar and seating area too. The food was soooo good. I got their chicken special and my husband got the steak special for the night. It was so much food but it was just good old cooking yet not just "plain". My husband said the mushrooms he got with the steak were easily the best he has ever had. We ate until we were going to burst. And it was getting late but the staff was not pushing us or anything (we tried to get done as quick as we could though for their sake). It was a really nice experience.
