    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.

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

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

    Lunch was hot and served quickly to the table. Great burgers, fries, pickles, and mushrooms... we will definitely be back!! Pats daughter gave us great service. Restaurant was exceptionally clean and just a great place for lunch. We were back for breakfast the next day. Good folks.

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

    Staying in Bardstown for a couple nights and set up two dinner reservations. Toogie's was night…read morenumber two and we can honestly say, for Bardstown, we went out with a bang! The ambiance was wonderful for a date...dimly lit, seated off in a corner, and history all around. We were seated quickly and met by the friendliest server we had on this trip. We had the catfish and Cornish hen and both were wonderful! The house made chips that came with the catfish were better than could have been imagined. We wrapped thermal up with house made cheesecake and it didn't disappoint either! I would highly recommend Toogie's if you are in Bardstown!

    This place really did not impress us. We came here for a joint anniversary dinner with my husband,…read moreand his aunt, uncle, and younger cousins. Hubby's family had been and had emphatically recommended it. This plus the great reviews and awesome looking pictures had us very excited. We started with the country ham hush puppies, the Caesar, and the mac and cheese. The salad and mac and cheese were alright, but we were really trying to mental gymnastics our way into believing that the hush puppies were great. For my entree, nothing was especially calling my name, so I settled on the gnocchi with added chicken. It was a very meh dish, and the chicken seemed like it was just added thoughtlessly, as opposed to pairing with the dish harmoniously. My husband got the catfish, which he said was fine. Aunt got the meatloaf, which was also fine but nothing to write home about either. The real winners were the little cousins who got burgers. These were simple but not bad by any means. The locale is really beautiful and definitely worthy of a special occasion. Love the two levels and the elevated tavern feel. The staff was great and super helpful and friendly. Overall, we likely won't be back, as we feel we can get a comparable experience elsewhere for the price, with likely better food. But go see for yourself! The menu looks like it changes, maybe we came at an off season.

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!

    We loved having a pre-Derby lunch here! Visiting a friend who lives nearby, she plans to come back!…read more We shared the Duck Poppers which were small but yummy. A nice little treat. Then I ordered the soup and a side of grits, which were both delicious. My husband order the Beef cheek Po Boy - yummy! And my friend ordered the Cuban. The fries are tasty and everything tasted incredibly fresh and well prepared. Of course we saved room for dessert and shared the Banana Cream Pudding. It had a roasted marshmallow top and probably the beat Banana pudding I've had! For drinks, we got the Filly Lilly, A specialty Mint Julio with Thyme in it, and the winner was the Strawberry Rhubarb Buck. Wow! Not only was the food delicious, but the service was great and everyone was very friendly and helpful. We sat inside because it was a dreary first half of the day before the sun came out for the Derby! But, there were a lot of nice outdoor areas to sit and enjoy your food or beverages. You will find something you love at the Kitchen Table. I highly recommend!

Order: deviled egg with country ham marmalade with redeye aioli. The perfect bite. Just order it and you will be so happy. Creamy egg with the crunchy texture of the ham. Yum!

Brisket dinner. Just ok. Slightly dry, definitely needed a sauce on the side. The bean medley on the bottom was ok. I don't think i would order again. Honey glazed fried chicken was the star of the show. Perfectly crispy exterior with juicy meat on the inside. The best bite of the day for sure. The surprise of the day was the "french onion soup" inspired mac and cheese. Just a delicious play on a traditional mac and cheese.
