They weren't super busy when we first walked in but business picked up when we got our order to go. We each got a latte and a dessert cause who doesn't want something delicious for breakfast. All of the items behind the counter looked DELICIOUS. It was hard to choose which one to get. I got the magic bar since it was one of the few gluten free options available and one of the best I've had. My boyfriend got the apple strudel and it was tasty. Their baked goods do not disappoint!

I am talking a deep, rich, slightly bitter dark chocolate flavor - which I much prefer to an overly sweet mocha. I tried the orange dreamsicle croissant. Very good, I would have a preferred just a tad more fruit forward or even floral flavor, but it's better to be a little under in that flavor profile, than over. I also could have skipped the white chocolate on it, but still a nice treat that will last me a few different bites at it. And the mortadella sandwich was an excellent, light, and fresh midday pick-me-up!

They have a bar area on their main floor and the restaurant is in the next floor, which is just up a few steps. They do offer a wheelchair elevator for those who need it, which is great. I wanted to try something a little different than the typical breakfast fare so I went with the Kelsey KY Brown. The food was great and was perfectly made. Most of their other food is the classic American breakfast/lunch foods such as breakfast/lunch sandwiches, omelets, pancakes, and such.

Aside from slow service and some of the clientele; the food was a letdown. It's sad to see what has happened to this chain; along with most others, post COVID. This seems to have become a more-expensive IHOP.

Proof on Main

When we came here we did not realize that Proof on Main is a not only a wonderful restaurant/bar but also a 24/7 free museum. You can order drinks and then walk through the exhibits. We just opted to eat breakfast first. As soon as you enter, you are standing in a colorful and fun art museum. The walls are adorned with many different types of art from living artists. The staff also encourages you to walk through the dining room and if able they will walk along as your own private docent, explaining a lot of what you see. We had to pause the dining room and bar exhibit tour for a short time to have breakfast which included: - BREAKFAST SANDWICH - Scratch Biscuit, House Sausage, - FRENCH TOAST - Ricotta, Strawberry, Pistachio - BISCUITS & GRAVY - House Sausage Gravy, Sunny Eggs, Chili Crisp Scrambled Eggs, Melty Cheese, Hash-brown - STEEL CUT OATMEAL - Spiced Apple Butter, Apples, Candied Walnuts I will not go items by item but I will say that everything was so perfect-tasty-fresh. The portions are very robust here and I am sure no one goes aways hungry. They have a lot of unique twists on items as you can see by the menu we had. After breakfast, we resumed our tour of the main floor then the basement. It's hard to describe just how large the viewing area is and all spots within the area are used for some kind of art display... Even the bathroom. Everything is so unique and I tried to capture a fair amount of it in photographs and information about the piece as well. This too should be a must visit if your in the Louisville area. Set aside an hour or two to stop in and relax with some great food and art. KUDOs to the team at Proof on Main.

This would be a perfect locale to turn into a highly selective speakeasy.

I had the delicious Edgy Veggie: Fried green tomatoes with mushroom gravy on a biscuit with an iced coffee. The coffee is lovely and there is a good range of specialty lattes (hot or iced) including milk alternatives for the dairy challenged, such as myself. The staff was delightful and friendly, and equally as cheerful was the decor of the restaurant. No boring gray here! Despite many options our second day in town, we decided to return the next day.

I ordered the cinnamon roll as an appetizer, and for my main breakfast I had the banana bread French toast, biscuits with eggs and cheese, and orange juice. The orange juice was amazing super fresh, natural, and sweet. The cinnamon roll was good (not the best I've ever had, but still enjoyable). The food overall was solid. The banana bread French toast was really good, the eggs were cooked well, and the biscuits and gravy were also very tasty. On the downside, one of the plates came out a little dirty, which wasn't great to see. Other than that, the place itself was clean, the staff was friendly, and the experience was enjoyable overall.

My top-tier chum who literally went to the school of hospitality and I came here two Fridays ago ahead of a bourbon tour (thinking, correctly, that we should probably have a hearty meal beforehand so we didn't end up face-first in a gutter somewhere). Several Kentucky natives told us that we had to try a Hot Brown during our visit, and since it was literally created at the Brown Hotel, this seemed like the logical spot. The actual Hotel has some gorgeous interiors, especially upstairs in the lobby. We didn't see that area until after our meal, so when we laid eyes on the Lobby Bar & Grill, we knew immediately that that was where we SHOULD have gone for this Hot Brown dish. J. Graham's, I'm sorry to say, doesn't have the history and personality of the rest of the building and just looks like a generic breakfast spot you'd find in any hotel. It probably exists solely because the other dining options in the hotel aren't open until later and they want to give tourists and their own customers a place to eat at all times of the day, which isn't a terrible reason in my book. But it's also unfortunately not very good, and the dirty walls and overall meh appearance of the establishment just make it very clear that the hey day for this hotel overall was decades ago. The service was the biggest miss here. Our waitress was scatterbrained, often not around or around but hanging out with co-workers or talking up other customers. It was honestly pretty mystifying because when she DID come by, she was often overly apologetic and trying to make amends. But the best way to make amends is not to have to keep doing that throughout the meal. She forgot my friend's coffee (didn't write anything down when we ordered, which is fine if you remember everything but...) and when my chum asked what was in the hummus (one of just three apps), she didn't know and had to go ask someone in the kitchen. That's arguably a nitpick and she DID try to figure it out, but the lunch menu is pretty small and it was a little odd that her menu knowledge was that limited. The bigger problem was that we were in there for over half an hour longer than we wanted to be because she wouldn't come by our table. I actually actively looked for her on the way to the bathroom so I could remind her to come to our table, but instead found her off to the side gossiping with other staff. Not a good look at all. So this might have been an overall positive experience if some of the hospitality from the hotel had spilled over here. We actually both enjoyed the apps, which were the only real positives of the experience. The Bourbon Barrel Fries and the Two Timer, featuring Smoked Bourbon Hummus (bourbon tends to be the theme of your days in this town, I've found) were both really good, and I probably ate more of those than the actual entree. The fries were cooked perfectly and were well seasoned/addictive. The Hot Brown was fine for what it was (we split it to try). It's basically a dramatic turkey melt, with slices of turkey coated in cheese and other sauces. It also came with strips of bacon on top, which on a personal palate level I didn't think really helped the dish so I barely nibbled on those. It's definitely a solid entry but it wasn't mind-blowing for either of us. Maybe it's just from where we come from in the Northeast, but I'm conditioned to like my turkey with accompanying stuffing, and usually in the latter part of November. I think it felt kind of weird to be eating turkey with warm cheese. But I'm glad we tried it and got the context at least. You might have a completely different experience with better service, but I'd still recommend going upstairs for any dining. It's a much better atmosphere and you can really appreciate where this hotel fits in the chronology of Louisville. You're not going to get that from going here.

First and foremost, a huge shoutout to Abby, my server, who provided exceptional service throughout my visit. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure my entire meal was enjoyable. Now, onto the star of the show: the cinnamon roll. This wasn't your average pastry. It was a decadent masterpiece! Imagine a fluffy, pillowy dough generously swirled with fragrant cinnamon sugar, then topped with a sweet glaze that drizzled down the sides. Each bite was a delightful explosion of taste and texture. The warm, gooey center perfectly complemented the soft dough, and the glaze added a touch of sweetness that tied everything together. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Wild Eggs and it was a fantastic experience! The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. I highly recommend trying their Kelseys Hot Brown- it was divine! But beyond the amazing food, what truly impressed me was the exceptional service. My server, Abby, was outstanding. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure my dining experience was top-notch. She was knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations. Thanks to Abby's friendly demeanor and excellent service, my visit to Wild Eggs was even more enjoyable. read more

Wild Eggs is a great option for a satisfying and enjoyable brunch. The pancakes were everything you'd hope for in a breakfast staple. Light and fluffy on the inside, with a hint of crispness on the edges, they were perfectly cooked. But what truly elevated the experience was the service. Abby was attentive and friendly, making sure my coffee cup stayed full and ensuring everything arrived promptly. She even offered recommendations from the menu, which proved to be spot-on. read more
