    We had friendly service and wonderful breakfast. We both had eggs, bacon and potatoes. Everything was cooked just right! I don't usually eat breakfast potatoes, because they are usually underdone, but not Pat's they were crispy but not burnt. Just right!

    Breakfast Stuffed French Toast

    Restaurant is right on Main St in Downtown Bardstown. The interior is warm and inviting with a fireplace on one wall. The staff is friendly and the food was delicious. We split the western omelette and the strawberry banana pancakes. Our friends had the breakfast biscuits and stuffed French toast with a side fried potatoes. Everything was perfectly cooked and homemade. The breakfast sandwich had real eggs... no McDonald's eggs here.

    Stopped in before hitting the trail. Really good home cooking. Chill, local atmosphere and great fresh ingredients. I had the egg, cheese and sausage sandwich and added Mayo, lettuce and tomato. Delicious! Think I will start getting this sandwich like this all the time! Service was quick and very friendly. Great spot!

    Stopped in for a quick lunch. Simple little family run breakfast& lunch place. We had the bacon cheeseburger, grilled bourbon chicken sandwich and the fried bourbon chicken sandwich. All were very good. Staff were all very friendly

    We love the downtown Bardstown area and we were looking for some post-church food that was a little lighter than some other places offer. Pat's Place turned out to be perfect. They have really solid and simple food. We were able to be seated right away, and the staff we interacted with was all very friendly throughout our time there. We each ordered a simple BLT. And a simple BLT we received! It was yummy and met our expectations. It came out quickly, we were able to satisfy our little craving and be on our merry way efficiently. Overall really good experience and a little bit of a change up for us, but definitely worthwhile! Would recommend!

    Pats place is a downtown Bardstown Kentucky diner type establishment that is located on the extremely popular strip of shops and eateries that is in the city. My family and I was in town from Lousiville taking a tour of nearby Bethlehem high (daughter may go there next year) and knowing this strip has cool places we arrived a smidge early to eat lunch. If I'm being honest we had another place on mind. But most of the places were closed on a Monday so we happily made the small walk to pats and diner here. Waking it it was away yourself. It has all the small town country town charm that you would expect from a diner in Bardstown. The workers were super friendly and efficient and we got great service. We started with an appetizer of cheese sticks. They had a nice Golden crust and good flavor on the crust. The cheese to me was a bit bland. But the kids loved it. Marinara sauce was real good too. For our entrees we sampled the menu quite a bit. I personally went simple and small with a grilled ham and cheese with Mayo. Was a pretty good sandwich. Not very much substance. But the ham had great flavor. My 2 middle daughters for a kids 2 piece tender. Both gave it a thumbs up and ate it all so that's a good sign. My wife got chicken noodle soup and a stuffed tomato with tuna salad on it. She was big fan of both and said they were great. My oldest born daughter got the house special that day that was spaghetti and meatballs. She was not a fan at all. Barely touched it. Said it tasted like spaghettios from a can. Overall we had a great visit. Great and fast service. Majority of the food was satisfying sans the house special. Absolutely would come back. Cute, folksy and tasty place.

    Two Sausage Egg Breakfast Biscuits

    A nice little breakfast spot on Third with a simple, yet great menu. A must visit when in Bardstown.

    Two Bacon Egg and Cheese biscuits with hash browns. The sandwiches were magical. Very magical.

    On our first morning in Bardstown, we decided to grab breakfast at Pat's Place on North 3rd Street in their downtown. Per the checker-pattern floors, I had the sense that this had been a more traditional diner at one point in its past with more counter seating, or had been an ice cream parlor (at least that was the impression I had). But Pat's held much of the ambiance and feel of one, right down to the hospitable and friendly service. My litmus test for most restaurants that serve breakfast nowadays is how they do a breakfast sandwich consisting of bacon, egg, and cheese on either toast, biscuits, or croissants. Being that we were in Kentucky, I went for two bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches on biscuits. I was not disappointed in my order as I inhaled them with gluttonous glee. The pricing was reasonable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfasts. I washed down the bacon, egg, cheesy goodness with multiple servings of coffee and water. Their hash browns were good as well, as I opted to enjoy them with hot sauce. I wish we could have come here once more while we were in town because those breakfast biscuit sandwiches were delicious.

    This says it all!! what a great visit to a great town.

When we confirmed with the waitress it did have that ingredient, the waitress shrugged and said sorry while walking away. It was a skillet so there was no picking around anything. Never offered to remake or anything. She did ask if we wanted a box to take it home. Unimpressed with the lack of customer service. (But the gentlemen bussing tables was very attentive and sweet!)

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!

    The Old Talbott Tavern has recieved numerous accolades & awards over many years & with being built…read morein the late 1700's it has an amazing history with notable guests such as Abraham Lincoln, Jesse James, Daniel Boone & the old exiled French King Louis Phillipe so that in itself is worth the stop for any history buff. Once seated we were given some recommendations by our sever, Bethany, who did an excellent job of taking care of us. So we ended up ordering the Pulled Pork Platter & Shrimp & Grits. Our meals arrived in short order & everything was outstanding. Our only complaint was the acousticss were pretty awful which made carrying on a conversation a little difficult but I suppose there isn't much that can be done about that. All in all we were more than happy with our experience & we will absolutely return again in the future.

The shepherds pie was just okay. Green fried tomatoes were fine, but missing the mark on the sauce. We ordered a special, souvlaki chicken. It was two skewers of really small, burnt and overcooked chicken with peppers on a bed of what tasted like microwaveable rice. Totally missing the seasoned and bright-herbaceous mix of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and oregano. Just go to the bar. Find some other place for dinner.
