Very nice place. Clean and what better theme! Food just ok. Wife said the chicken salad was good. The fish sandwich was WAY overcooked! The ends of the fish were so cooked it was crunchy clear through. Beading on the fish was also way overcooked, very crunchy with a dark dark color. Again, great theme. Will go back for a second try down the road to far for us for a casual lunch. Recommend it for the place and decor, for food only fair. We will see on next try. read more

Cute little place, though the interiors could definitely be better. Very friendly staff and decent variety on the menu. Slightly over-priced for the portions that come out, but I did find the food fresh. I ordered a Hawaiin chicken sandwich (without bacon)... it was good but the chicken was a bit chewy. I'll definitely give them a second try... read more

The atmosphere is amazing and the food is even better. We love our lil' hidden gem off of the beaten path!

Food is delicious but somewhat pricey. They no longer have meals so you have to purchase a side and a drink separately. Service was fast. read more

The Rock Cafe - Buffalo chicken tenders with sweet potato waffle fries. - Cafes Near Me - Paris, Kentucky

Meh. Stopped in for lunch. Friendly counter service in a super clean environment. All of our sandwiches (Rueben, SW wrap, and turkey club) were just ok, not great. Meh. read more

I have been here twice now and both times were great. Real bagels, real pancakes, and good coffee. Decent food for a cafe, very large menu though. The drive-through girls are the sweetest. Nice outdoor seating with fairy lights. read more

Cute, clean Christian food spot, drive-thru or dine inside. Books & bibles for sale. Scriptures on the wall, nice wholesome decor & great safe place for students from the school across the street to grab a bite after school. Conveniently located for a quick simple meal. Very friendly staff. Breakfast, lunch, ice cream & smoothies. We had scrambled eggs, bacon, tater tots & croissants. Excellent. In & out in 20m, two breakfast entrees, coffee for $11. Better than any fast food joint. read more

Food is average maybe slightly above fast food fare, depending on what you order. I had three different meals here before writing a review and I got something different each time. Again, average to slightly above average. Maybe I just have yet to find a menu item that wows me. Nice employees! read more

Great little Cafe! Friendly staff, cute decor and clean! Stopped for breakfast passing through to visit family. Will definitely stop again on our travels South! read more

Service was great but I paid $10-$11 for a Philly cheese stake I ate it in 5 bites. It came with no fries and a medium drink was $3. I feel like I got robbed. never again will I go back. read more

Love the food, the decor, and the concept! The Christian bookstore inside is unexpected and cool. It has an outdoor seating area for those great weather days...like today. I can tell cleanliness is important to them. You know what they say about cleanliness. "Cleanliness is next to Godliness". I'm thinking it went with the concept. We had a burger, sweet potato fries, chicken pesto, and pulled pork. Each of us enjoyed the meal. Too full to try dessert, which I hear is the best. ( next time) read more

Really good coffee drinks! Safe and clean place for kids to hang out after school. Support local! Great place!

A cute place to take your grandma for brunch. Christian themed which is a unique choice, the food is typical diner food and it's all well made. Try their lattes and smoothies! read more

Food okay. Extremely expensive. Our family of four spent $85 for 4 sandwiches, 3 sides, and drinks.

Clean environment, super friendly staff, amazing food, and incredible ice cream!! I got the southwest wrap and brownie ice cream and both were delicious. You won't regret coming here. Couldn't recommend this place more! read more

We have breakfast & lunch here, Never been disappointed. You better be hungry with there breakfast burrito. But the Sea Salt Carmel Truffle ice cream is worth the trip. read more

We visited The Rock Café this past weekend, and it's definitely a nice little spot to grab a snack. The location is a bit odd as it's in an old gas station, and it's also a Christian bookstore, but we didn't let that stop us from stopping by to grab some ice cream. I have heard that The Rock Café also has great food, but I haven't had a chance to try anything other than their ice cream, which I was definitely a fan of! They have a large assortment of flavors and will let you sample anything you'd like, which I enjoyed. I opted for a "Sea Salt Caramel" flavor, while my brother chose "Dinosaur Egg" - which was vanilla with cake pieces, similar to a traditional cake batter flavor. Both were delicious and everything is reasonably priced. read more

Met a friend for breakfast this last weekend and were told of this cafe. We decided to give it a shot, and glad we did. The atmosphere is light and welcoming, and there is contemporary Christian playing over the radio. Its perfect for meeting with one or a small group of friends and just sitting and conversing. The choices on the menu were plentiful and decently priced. Service was quick after the order and the food was prepared perfectly. The only thing preventing getting 5 stars is the building did not hold heat the best. Granted it was a cold and snowy morning, it was on the chilly side. Other than that, this place is fantastic. read more

Fresh and homemade. Fantastic coffee. Had the southwest chicken salad and went back for it another day - it's that good. Friendly staff, Covid respectful. I'd recommend The Rock to anyone. read more

Greasy food. Poorly cooked. No thanks won't return and servers seem to have a "rude rude"

Great menu. High quality ingredients. Very friendly customer service. So glad we saw it, turned around and grabbed lunch here. We ordered the BBQ Pork Sandwich, the chicken wrap and philly cheese steak and two milkshakes. We ate outside at the picnic tables. Lots of space to spread out. read more

This place is GREAT. Definitely a good amount of food for the money! It's a cozy place to eat, they also have ice cream and coffee! Both breakfast and lunch is very good. read more

The food is great. The people who work their are so nice. This is a great place to eat. I EAT here a lot. It is by the place where I get my hair done and is so confident for me to eat at after I get my hair done. read more

Wow this place is awesome. I drive by this place daily and always see it so very busy. We are new to the area and I had the hamburger. Hot and fresh along with great fries. Looking around and checking out other people's order and everything looked great as well. Nice place to have lunch. Very inviting. Warm and cozy AND very clean. read more

Such good food! I love the atmosphere and the ice cream is amazing! The outdoor seating is a great option to get some fresh air and watch cars go by. If you need to have a party, call and they will reserve a space for you! The employees are friendly. It isn't a "fast food" restaurant so their food is made to order. It's awesome. read more

The food is ok, but they need to raise their rating on $ up to $$$ or $$$$. I just stopped and got an order of chicken strips and fries and a double cheese burger with onion and mayo and it was almost $18.00.. you could get a cheeseburger at Longhorns for a dollar more.. lol ridiculous!!!! read more

Food is decent but pricey but my God the wait is ridiculous. For chicken fingers I've waited 17 minutes for just chicken strips.

Alright, here it goes. This place is what you would expect if you took a Dairy Queen and smashed it into a Barnes and Noble. The food wasn't spectacular or anything to die for, but it could have been a lot worse. The outside patio mostly stone work that you would find in a Dairy Queen patio but it had the chairs of a bookstore. Well shaded. Inside were books stands between the tables and a separate room were also some books, the selection was small. The biggest problem I have, the lunch special with $9.69. The Big Jonah, fish sandwich side of onion rings and a pop. I however wanted to substitute the root beer float. Rather than giving me a charge for the difference though, the clerk insisted on ringing everything separately which brought my total up to around $14. After checking the menu on what the cost of an ice cream scoop would've costed to place into my root beer, I realized I would only be saving about $2 and decided that I would rather not disrupt the serenity of the atmosphere by pushing the issue. (Which is not my usual response by any means.) The only review I can even think to give this place is, to bottom line it, could have been a lot worse. read more

Best Philly cheesesteak in Kentucky! The staff is friendly and the service excellent, but beware, you'll be surrounded with fundamentalist Christian books and gift items - not something I'm accustomed to at an eating establishment. Still- well worth a visit. The food is great! read more

The rock is ok. It's common quick burgers and sandwich type place. The ice cream is good and old fashioned hard scooped. Their breakfast is pretty good as well. Their coffee not so much. They could really do with a well trained barista. High school kids who drink Starbucks flavored milk tend to over milk, flavor, and sprinkle everything coffee is about balance. If you have to cover the taste of coffee then your not a coffee drinker. read more

Generous hand-dipped ice cream scoops with lots of flavor choices. Coconut almond chip is a must for coconut lovers. Christian establishment with books for sale, wholesome music, a TV to watch a sporting event. Great place for a coffee date, study or read a book. Hot food is standard, nothing out of the ordinary, which is the only thing keeping this review from being five stars. read more

I've always enjoyed the sandwiches here. Usually a Philly Cheesesteak & it's the bomb every time. Always fresh! It's a little pricey but the food quality is HIGH and CONSISTENT. read more

Great Sandwich stop!!! Had the Grilled Chicken Club, very good. Definitely would recommend.

If you are looking for something to eat in this area then you can't do much better than The Rock. All of the food is a step up from most diners, and fast food has nothing on this place. If you like real ice cream shakes or scoops then it's just icing on the cake. It's not that one part of a meal is amazing, it's just that every part is thought about. For example, the bread is not just plain cheap buns. I like the BLT (when the bacon is crisp, sometimes it's not), the cheesesteak is good, the fish sandwich is good, potato salad is nice, soups are decent, the ice cream is great. The place is clean and the young staff is pleasant and helpful. The location is convenient and the food doesn't usually take more than 5 minutes. I have been to Paris, KY about 10 times and have not visited any other restaurants here since finding this place. I even plan my trip so I'm hungry when I get there. read more
