Food was not worth the price. If you need a steak knife to cut biscuits, something is wrong. If you need a steak knife to cut biscuits the second time around, it's bad. The wait staff earned the 2 stars. read more

Service was great and with a smile. Chicken sandwich was to die for. Chicken was moist and tender. Stuffed tomato and salad was also very good. We visit from Alabama and we will be vack. read more

Pat's Place - Trying out Pats Place in Bardstown, Kentucky. Don't tell our CFO Wesley Overton because we are supposed to bring our own lunch.#rulebreaker - American Near Me - Bardstown, Kentucky

I missed the hype at this place! Last year I had breakfast at the place across the street, who apparently later went out of business. I sat there and watched tons of people herd into Pat's, so I said to myself... I'll check that place out next time. I ordered the Pat's breakfast. Granted that I'm not a huge breakfast fan, but I know what proper returns upon requests are. I ordered my two eggs cooked medium. One egg came out runny and one was over cooked. The same with the sausage... one was crispy and one was pink. I could push the eggs to the side, but when I bite into a piece of sausage and it's pink, I can't bypass two protein mishaps on one plate. It didn't end there though. The fried potatoes were also over cooked and burnt. I probably could have eaten the only thing edible on my plate, the biscuit. But my husband saved the day and went up to the bar area and ordered me a BLT. I swear I'm not a brat, I just don't like under cooked eggs or meat. The waitress who told us that it was her first day, came over and noticed that I'd not eaten the Pat's breakfast, acknowledged the facts. So she is the only reason that I'm giving them a second star. I will also add that another lady (who I assume was a manager) came over and apologized. But my final rant... the BLT sucked too! literally, maybe three or four pieces of bacon that didn't reach the edge of the toast... Don't say that I didn't warn ya! read more

Stopped in for lunch after visiting the Civil War Museum, nice atmosphere, nice staff and wonderful food!! I ordered a Grilled ham and cheese and it was AMAZING! Just like mama makes. Buttered toast and slices of ham and cheese and I ate it so fast! Will go back and visit again!! read more

Delicious, service was outstanding and food was excellent. Southern home cooking with truly kind staff. They explained everything & knew their dishes! I was very impressed with their special: cod & the slaw was wonderful! read more

I heard all of the locals go there - well they can have it. Spent the last 3 days in Bardstown and out of all of the places where we ate- Pat's Place was the WORST. Slow service, cranky wait staff and the BLT I ordered was an absolute joke (only 2 pieces of bacon? For real?). There are much better places to spend your money in Bardstown. read more

Good attentive service and value priced menu. Typical diner style breakfast. We had omelets and biscuits and gravy. Coffee was refilled so hot it burned your mouth though. One of the better breakfast choices if you're on the bourbon trail. read more

Pat's Place has become one of my favorite spots for breakfast and lunch. Full disclosure I haven't had dinner there so I can't speak to what that experience is like. Breakfast is very good and affordable they have a simple menu and there is something there for everybody. The pat's breakfast is my usual go to with scrambled eggs and cheese, bacon, potatoes, and wheat toast. For lunch it doesn't get any better than the Pat Burger or Club Sandwich. Also if you haven't had them before Pat's serves up a really good fried pickles app. Bottom line Pat's is a great place if your needing something quick,simple, and delicious located in downtown Bardstown. read more

I have to keep in mind that this establishment is in Bardstown, Kentucky - a town the size of a dime. This review is purely based on an out-of-towner's breakfast experience. Seat yourself restaurant in what looks like a renovated living room. It doesn't matter what you order from the simple menu, everything is cheap. Our food was unsurprising: my Egg Bacon & Cheese Sandwich, tasted like unseasoned egg, bacon, and Kraft cheese on some toast. So really, I can't complain - I got what I ordered. Coffee tastes like water but our waitress was quick to refill. This place is clean and friendly. If you're looking for cheap sit-down breakfast, this would be the place. read more

The experience I had was an abomination! Place looks cozy at first but the terrible menu and tasteless food make that cozy feeling go away fast! You would be better off going to Wal-Mart deli. At least your mediocre experience wouldn't cost you LOL This place is less than acceptable food at a ridiculous price. NEVER AGAIN #chowhallfood #overpriced read more

Always have a great meal at Pat's! I had a cheeseburger and fries the last time I went and it was very good. The staff is friendly and prompt. I enjoy looking out the windows downtown while eating there. Nice place to meet up for lunch! read more

I was very disappointed in the service here. I was dining with a few friends who are of color. Their food was not brought out while the rest of our party was served. The cook came out and was very rude to my friends. She was obviously targeting my friends. I will not be eating here again. I will not recommend that anyone come here. I will never put up with racism and I will never give my money to any establishment that does not treat every patron, regardless of race, religion, sexuality, or gender, equally and with the upmost respect! read more

Opened early just for me. Good breakfast and coffee, not standard stuff. Nice little place, very homey atmosphere. The staff was friendly and food came quickly. Great place for breakfast! read more

Great place to stop for a great meal! Love the homemade potato soup. Very friendly servers! Love it!

Best best best place to eat. You can get it how you like it and they make it good. Best burger in town, awesome salads, yumO specials, all served by a family like staff. read more

My wife, son, and I, went here a couple of times recently. Food is pretty good albeit maybe a hair overpriced, service is OK. Overall an average experience, if you're in Bardstown they need a quick diner type style lunch, this place is going to be available. read more

This place is a small diner that had very reasonably prices meals. I ate the bourbon glazed burger with cole slaw and fries. Pottery good for a fresh made hamburger and the cole slaw was delicious (sauce made in house) and the sweet potato fries were tender with just the right crisp. The waitress was super friendly and took great care for us. They even brought my grandparents each a big ol' slice of pie (chocolate and coconut cream) for free. They were celebrating their 62nd anniversary. read more

I was very happy with Pat's. Cool environment, and good location. One of the best burgers I've had in a while. Menu was overall decently priced too for what you get. It's right off the square in Bardstown so parking can be an issue. read more

Slammed on Memorial Day Sunday since main competition closed. Employees really nice but the wait to be greeted 10-15min (we were seconds away from leaving, kinda wished we had). Food took 30 min for basic breakfast items. So if restaurant is full kitchen and wait staff can't keep up? There was not a line - just full. Biscuits and grits really bad. Omelette good. Bacon some crispy some wriggly. read more

I had previously been to Pat's about 3 years ago, and didn't return because of a bad experience. I decided to give it another try but that was an unfortunate mistake. The waitress had to be asked multiple times for things that had already been requested, and was not attentive at all. Various members of our group had to walk up to the register to get silverware, creamer, and refills on drinks. We also had to wait about 45 minutes for our food, and the waitress never apologized. She seemed surly and resentful when we asked for things, and even totally ignored us several times when we were asking for things as she was walking back. The food was mediocre at best; one person's food was cold and the oatmeal was obviously instant. They ran out of bacon because of a rush but instead of telling us before the food came out and giving us an option to order something else, only told us they were out when they brought out our food without it. In summary, I'm done with Pat's and won't be recommending it to anyone! read more

Great food! Was waited on in a fast and friendly manner. Try the banana nut bread French toast!

Thankful for places like this staying open during Coronavirus scare. I called them not long after restaurants were closing dining rooms to see if they were still open. Not only were they still open but my food was amazing! They made picking up the food a breeze and seemed beyond appreciative of me ordering. Support places like this so we don't lose them! read more

My friend and I had lunch at Pat's Place and it was just ok. She had a club sandwich and I had a burger. It was a pretty busy day and the restaurant was pretty full. However, since this is a tourist destination, I'd say they should be staffed to handle the business. I've had better, and worse, food. read more

An example of small town hospitality and home cooking. We love Pat's breakfast! And the twins are incredible!

This place is just fine. Small menu, not much in the way of healthy food, but overall was satisfied with my meal. Friendly staff. They're supposedly famous for their burger, but I didn't try it so I can't attest to that. Quick service read more

The food was great, but it took forever. The portions were smaller than I anticipated as well.

Are these other reviews real? This place is a joke my niece makes better food than this place. The food is something you would get at a High School cafeteria! I ordered a chicken sandwich with BBQ sauce and it was bland and flavorless. Don't waste your money or time in this local hole in da wall! read more

The best place to eat in Bardstown. Not a fancy restaurant but great food, prices, and service.

Solid diner. Good eggs, decent French toast. Very prompt, friendly service with no wait to get seated on a Sunday. Coffee refills were very prompt. Tried the bacon and the sausage, both were what you would expect in a family diner. Really enjoyed the art work on the walls. If I'm in town again and need a solid breakfast, I'd stop here again. read more

Simple, clean, friendly. Breakfast was exactly what we were after, but there we lots of options. It was nice to stop in this little town for a break from the road, cute. read more

If I could minus stars I would, horrible server she left in the middle of service. Dry old French toast I mean logs of garbage. Will never return read more

I wanted to like it. I love small places. I didn't. The portion of pimento cheese on a tomato was tiny. The boys burgers were larger, but very very dry and not served medium well as it was listed. They were dunking them in ranch and ketchup to eat them they were so dry. You pay an upcharge if $1.75 to get fries instead of chips, but only end up with about 8 small fries. I got lemon pie (due to still being hungry). It came out in a pile instead of a piece and was not cold as I expected. read more

I had the egg and bacon breakfast sandwich. At $5.95 I expected it to be a little larger, but that was a nonissue after I was done eating it and was very full! The other diners who joined me were pleased with their meals as well. The coffee was weak, which was the only disappointment. The service was stellar! I would eat here again. read more

This place is a simple nice diner to get a basic breakfast. Priced well and nice smiling people and good service & good food.

Owned and run by a local this place is truly Bardstown to the core. Great food and also a great atmosphere. It is owned and run by Pat. It is also where her two adult daughters work. You will not only love the food and friendly atmosphere, you will be eating on the main street downtown close to all the shops. It is also a place where after eating ,if you want you can ask for a piece of one of their home made pies. Every small town has a place locals go and this is it in Bardstown. My wife and I make it a point to eat there at least once a week. read more

Waitresses amazing, fried pickles so good. Great place to have lunch. So many option, sorry we missed out on the pies!
