    Terrible, terrible service. Mediocre $15 martini. Hard. Pass. Try paying attention to your customer next time.

    This place has a smooth vibe, with good lighting and matching music. It's a good bar for a date or for business clients.

    Hidden gem in Paducah. Fantastic cocktails, ambiance. Reminds me of an old classic neighborhood bar. Highly recommend.

    The ladies behind this bar are like drink ninjas! They're so fast and don't even seem stressed with a crowded bar. Love this place!

    Freight House in Paducah is worth the drive from Nashville (and if you are a fan of quilting, this…read morecity is for you). We showed up right at opening, five o'clock, and there was already a long line of people waiting to get in. Make a reservation. I'm glad we did. We had a party of four and was seated at a low top that had a view of the kitchen. Lively open space with an open kitchen you can see both the cook line and the prep area. The cornbread was the unexpected standout of the entire meal. Mildly sweet, savory, light and fluffy all the way through. I was not expecting a side dish to steal the show, but it did. We also ordered the double stuffed burrata, and the bread it came with deserves its own mention. Crisp, lightly toasted, with just a touch of char. It paired beautifully with the creamy burrata and the accompaniments on the plate. For my entree I went with the grilled Caesar salad and added shrimp. It ended up being the perfect call. The portion was generous, the shrimp addition made it feel like a real meal. The romaine had this excellent crisp char on it that added so much. The dressing was heavenly. One of the best Caesar dressings I have had in a while. My favorite parts of the night had nothing to do with what was on my plate. We got to watch chef Sara Bradley working the kitchen with her team during service, and it was clear why this place has the reputation it does. I'd love to come back and try the prix fixe tasting menu next time. Overall this was a great experience from start to finish. And a must stop or destination when driving through KY.
