    I came here for lunch on a Wednesday with my friend. We were greeted immediately and given somewhere privately to sit since we had an infant with us. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We were given menus upon sitting down and told their daily special. Moments later our drinks arrived. It wasn't even 10 minutes later that our food arrived. And wow it was delicious! Also, their prices are so low it was a nice surprise. I ordered the roast beef with sides and my friend had their beef pot roast. We definitely filled up and enjoyed every bite. We will be returning here again in the near future without a doubt.

    Out on a whirlwind trip, we had some time to kill right around lunch time... We we kind of on the middle of nowhere, so our choices were limited. We came across Pete's and decided to stop. The place was hopping, obviously a favorite with the locals, and we definitely got a "hometown" feeling while we were there. The servers were all really sweet and the service was swift and efficient. I ordered a burger and fries and they were good. We ordered milkshakes for the road, and those were delicious! All in all we were not disappointed. Proving sometimes, the best places are the ones you just stumble upon!

    The country fried steak with three sides for $6.50 is a heck of a bargain! Delicious and made to order fresh. Yum!

    What a neat little "hole-in-the-wall" type of place. If you happen to be driving by on the new 27 and looking for a quick bite and need to stretch your legs this is the place to do it. Food is fresh, hot, made to order, short order cook style. The special of the day was fried chicken with three sides, but I opted for the country fried steak. It was super delicious and cooked to order. I had country fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy, Mac and cheese, brown beans and cornbread with a Diet Coke and it was $8.47 OUT THE DOOR. Now come on, where nowadays can you get a meal like that out the door, tax, title and tag, for $8.50? And I didn't even mention the fresh cobblers and ice cream sundaes they have too. What a killer, right off the beaten path, hole in the wall, places to eat. Now it's not Jeff Ruby's, and if you don't mind sharing a meal with all the local folks wearing their work boots, stop in and give Pete's Diner a try. You won't be disappointed.

    I have travelled in for breakfast a few times now and when listen when I say this place is a…read morediamond in the rough! Blink and you might miss it but if you're lucky enough to stop in you will leave full of delicious home cooked food! And with a smile on your face from the great service and environment. Our recent stop was for pancakes before school and some time to study vocabulary words...not a bad combo for a kid if you ask me. My only draw back is that parking is tight during certain times of the day, but if the lot is full it's because people know how delicious this place is!! Did I mention everything is farm to table and you can even purchase some local meats here during certain seasons.

They offer fresh, farm-to-table food at a very affordable price, and you can genuinely taste the quality and care that goes into each dish. Everything feels thoughtfully prepared and consistent, which is why I couldn't wait to return. The atmosphere really sets this place apart. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. It's also a Christ-centered restaurant, which adds a meaningful positive element to the overall experience. I ordered the meatloaf the first time I came and it was absolutely amazing. Second visit, I got a bun-less burger and fries with green beans. Also got a biscuit and gravy and chocolate cake to go. Everything was delicious and so fulfilling. I can't wait to return, it's super yummy. If you're looking for great food, fair pricing, and a warm, uplifting environment, Farm Kitchen is absolutely worth a visit. I highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back again.

It's one reason I don't go out for breakfast ~ I can make a pretty good breakfast at home. No use paying someone to do something I can do. So, going into Jackson's restaurant, a mom and pop restaurant specializing in home cooked style food, I had my doubts. Walking up to what resembled a school cafeteria lunch line only furthered my doubts. And, seeing the sheer number of different options sitting out behind the glass window only furthered my suspicions. Look, I was wrong. The food here is really good. The service is super friendly and helpful. I was so overwhelmed by all the choices I just told the lady behind the glass counter to pick me something. She obliged with a kindness that made me think she knew me somehow. She chose the chicken and dumplings, beef stew, apples, and two different types of corn bread. Now, I thought initially, and she even admitted, that the chicken and dumplings/beef stew mix was a little unorthodox, but that they were both so good I had to try them. Both were fantastic. The apples were awesome. I liked both types of corn bread. When I got up to leave, she called me over to the counter and said that since it was my first time there, I'd get a free dessert. You all, I was too full to even try. The food here is both tasty and filling. I was in Richmond for a conference at Eastern Kentucky University. So it was really convenient to stop by. But I'd say that even if you're remotely close, it's worth a visit. Don't, as I did, judge a book by its cover.

    This is quite possibly the best restaurant to ever exist in Stanford…read more I grew up in Stanford, I can tell you that in the 1980's and 1990's that local restaurants here were nothing but no-name greasy spoon diners selling nothing but fairly generic "burger and fries" and breakfast food, and it was usually pretty lousy. I was back in the town I grew up in a couple of weeks ago, and heard there was a really nice cafe in Stanford now called the Bluebird, so I sought it out. I was amazed. This definitely is more like a place I would expect in Lexington or Louisville. The food is genuinely good. Iced coffee and espresso, hot browns, and lots of other food that was never in Stanford when I was growing up there as a kid. I know that Stanford went wet a few years ago in a referendum, but it's still surreal to see margaritas and other mixed drinks on the menu in a place in Stanford. The ambiance was friendly and welcoming, and struck a nice balance between small town friendly. I had a patty melt, which was probably the best meal I'd ever had in a restaurant in Stanford in my entire life. I will definitely be back the next time I come back to my old hometown.

It was a generous serving abundant w tender chicken. Our server, Autumn, was personable and, simply, just perfect at her job. We will return.
