The cornbread pancakes were tasty and an interesting take on the preparation of them, it paired nicely with the chili. It would've been a perfect fall meal. The staff seemed incredibly kind, and were so excited to tell us about their new slushy machine. The interior was decorated with old news paper clippings, stories, and a bobcat mascot costume. I'd go back for the ice cream, but that's about it. They were out of the things we had tried to order initially, which was kinda disappointing.

In this case it's some slightly oddish touches. Chocolate cake topped with popcorn or rock n roll brownies with marshmallows. Cool. Downstairs there is some seating and upstairs even more all mismatched and studenty. Really cool hippy vibe! The coffee was great- hot and strong and the service was top. The only slight complaints I have (and thus no 5 stars) are: no wifi available (this could really be a hang out spot for students/hipsters parking off whilst drinking and eating) and the quality of the cakes. I must say though that they were really good, large in portion and excellently decorated and served, I just wasn't blown away by them. I so wanted to but I have to be honest and say that they were just "pretty good!"

Lollie's Sweet Treats is an in home bakery located in the mountains of Morehead, KY. It is owned…read moreand operated by Angela Fuller. She specialize in small batch cupcakes, but also offer custom birthday, wedding and shower cakes. If you cakes aren't your thing, then they offer a boat load of other goodies too. Such as...meringue pies, sugar cookies with buttercream frosting, hand pulled cream candy, fudge, and chocolate dipped caramel apples just to name a few. She hand makes all of her baked goods and sugary sweets out of her house and there fore doesn't have an official storefront. She usually requires a day or two advance notice to be able to fulfill most orders, but that goes with any at home bakers. In my opinion, it is worth the wait. Lollie's Sweet Treats has recently became a Kentucky Proud and Appalachian Proud member. Anytime I need cupcakes or cookies, I always give her a call. You should too. Tell her Chad Sent you.

Stopped in around 6, unknowing that they close at 7. Guy was already scrubbing the grills and the extra help left for the night. Guy looked shocked that I was in there trying to get a Reuben. He frantically texted the help to no avail (she did eventually show up, much later). We were in no rush so we enjoyed the swing out front while we waited. The outside has several nice bar top chairs to eat at. Inside also has some space but it's sort of musty in there. Why we opted to-go. Got back to our cabin and devoured the Reuben... I love a good Reuben and this is probably one of the better ones I've ever had. The house made kraut slaw was so good and it had the perfect amount of thousand island. Most of the time, the corned beef dries out but not here! It sat well between the Swiss and rye! Fries were super thick and had a good Lawrys season salt type seasoning. The rear has a "bar" with like four liquors and some cans of pop. Not your typical tavern joint. Call ahead, order yourself a Reuben to go and enjoy!

I get so excited when I know we're heading that way bc I want Boone coffee Ambiance is average. It's a small space so finding seating is usually next to impossible. We usually walk through the shop and leave once we have our drinks. The few times we've stayed it's ok it's just small and tables are close together you can pretty much hear everyone around you and their convos. But it's still worth the visit

Spencer's Dairy Bar has been here since 1945 and is an old-fashioned fast-food spot in Booneville,…read moreKentucky. It is best known for its classic burgers, thick milkshakes, and fries, offering an "old-school" experience with outdoor-only seating. "Big Spencer" burger is more of work of art than just burger it is made fresh, and come with options of either some huge onion rings, or crispy fries. My wife had the peanut butter shake with hers while I opted for an Ale 8 instead. The hot fudge cake and banana splits we have for dessert was amazing, while it was cold as it was outside-only dining, but it's clean, friendly, and this place is always busy with families keeping long-standing traditions. Whether you stop for an Ale-8-One, a soft-serve cone, or a Big Spencer Special, you always leave this small-town spot happy! If you are thru Booneville, this has to be where you eat. Staff was so friendly and really set the place apart for anywhere else in the area.
