    Service was great and the food was good. Pretzel is a must for a starter. Wings were good but the fries were great.

    Cute place and very clean. Went for breakfast and food was good. But my wife wasn't able to eat…read morebecause her food had an ingredient in it that she was allergic to. 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!)

    Mammy's was the best meal I had in my 4 day visit to the area! We came pretty late at night after a…read morelong day of bourbon tasting in the area, and we were all starving. 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!

    Fast, friendly, clean and delicious. What a great stop!…read more We drove in town for the holidays and got in a bit late so we are just tired and wanted something fast. Well I'm glad we stopped here. I love it! My jalapeño burger is perfectly spicy. The chili cheese fries are great. My daughter is usually picky about chicken tenders but she likes them and of course she loves her dirt and worms cup. The girls at the front were very friendly and the food came out fast. The tables were all clean. I have no complaints. Definitely will be a go to stop when we come into town again.

    I do not eat fast food. I'm a clean eater, but I'm also not a psycho. I knew of this place that…read moreopened in May, but had never heard of the brand or had any intentions of going. On the way back from Louisville my 15 year old son wanted to eat hear based on what he heard about it. I figured it wouldn't hurt me to try it either. The food was really good! I got #1 combo-double meat burger with cheese lettuce onion pickle. I loved how they did the pickle slices. I liked how thin the burgers were. I don't typically eat fries either, but these shoestring style were good. My son got a bacon cheeseburger and he loved his as well. For desert I tried a chocolate milk shake and my son had a brownie concrete. I have never had such a chocolate experience. After trying one of their shakes I don't know how anyone could have one from McDonald's. Now, it will probably be months before I come here again or I may never, just because I don't regularly consume this type of fare, but it gets a 10/10 for me and for sure would eat this before McDonald's or Burger King or any other fast food! The service was relatively quick around 12:30pm on Wednesday. The drive thru line was long so we went in and there wasn't a wait. We had to wait a little bit for our ice cream but I understand that is due to how they make it. The staff was friendly and I liked the interior. I noticed an electric outlet at each booth and they had custard in a freezer to go. They have outdoor seating which looked nice too.

    Very cool and modern spot on the bourbon trail. Our guide was Michelle and she was super down to…read moreearth and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed the tastings from the barrel! We also got to look at the special whiskey library which was neat (pun not intended). We stayed for lunch and it was somehow / possibly even better than the whiskey!! Will was our server and he was the man! Soo attentive and friendly (give this man a raise!). We shared some apps - the chicken egg rolls and Brussel sprouts. For my main I got the Chef special which was the gumbo.. so good.

    Interestingly, this tour started on a high note--with the tasting first, which was a great way to…read morekick things off. Greg did an excellent job walking us through how to properly smell and taste the bourbon, which really set the tone for the rest of the experience. The flow of the tour was very well thought out. One standout detail was the use of headsets--something more distilleries should do--because you could actually hear everything clearly no matter where you were standing. Small thing, but it made a big difference. I also really appreciated the mat placed over the grates. As someone who isn't a fan of heights, that thoughtful touch made the experience much more comfortable. A highlight was the stop at the rickhouse, especially the owner's private room with the Versace table--definitely a unique touch. Getting to thief straight from the barrel was a fantastic experience and really capped things off. Overall, very well done and a memorable visit.
