Mammy's Kitchen & Bar

Wow… what a find!! This place was simply great.. stopped in with our pup for some lunch and were very impressed with the atmosphere, food and great service. Our servers were Abbey and Amanda, who did an amazing job. They have a great selection of bourbon for you sampling pleasure, and the food was delicious.. we had the bourbon burger and the grilled chicken sandwich.. both came with home made kettle chips and were very tasty. Abbey even brought out a nice piece of bacon and water for Memphis Belle who enjoyed the attention and treats very much. We had lunch on the front patio, which has ample seating and umbrellas if needed. Parking in the back with ADA accessibility. The service was excellent and we really enjoyed the staff… do yourself a favor.. and get yourself there for a really great experience.

Wait was only about 20 to be seated. We ordered the fresh pork rinds for an appetizer and the were still hot and popping when they brought them out! Delicious! The place is very coolly decorated with a mish mash of rural farm versus modern settings. My wife ordered the Hot brown and thought it to be a might bit salty and I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich with homemade potato chips which was really good. They have a county store but we didn’t get a chance to go in before they closed. The only real turn off was the men’s restroom was very small and unpleasant for a bar and restaurant of this size with only 1 stool and 2 urinals (which were both out of order). Waitresses were very attentive and friendly!

Mammy’s Kitchen & Bar is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the place feels incredibly cozy, quirky, and welcoming. The restaurant was fully decked out in Christmas décor, including a large display of classic Christmas misfits (including a 10 ft abominable snowman) and it truly felt magical. Even the little shop inside the restaurant was adorable, filled with charming items that were hard to resist. The staff really set this place apart. Our waitress was exceptionally kind and friendly and made us feel right at home. Little details like the menu being printed on old newspaper added to the restaurant’s unique charm and made the experience feel thoughtful and special. The food was fantastic from start to finish. We ordered the pork rinds as an appetizer, and they were cooked to absolute perfection...not too crispy, not hard or dry, and not soggy either. The generous basket was far more filling than a typical appetizer. Everything was seasoned and prepared just right with the toppings coming together perfectly. For our meal, we had a hamburger served on a corn muffin bun with coleslaw, cheese, and other toppings. I was a bit unsure at first how those flavors would pair together, but wow!!! they complemented each other perfectly. Every bite worked, and the balance of flavors was spot-on. Prices are very fair for the quality, portion sizes, and overall experience. Portions are generous, and nothing felt skimpy or overpriced. The restaurant is completely family-friendly, offering a kids menu with good options, and the décor itself makes it a fun and welcoming place for children. Mammy’s Kitchen & Bar can get busy, especially during peak seasons, so calling ahead may be a good idea. We had about a 15-minute wait in the off season, but it was absolutely worth it. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with our experience and would recommend this place to anyone, families, couples, or anyone looking for great food in a warm, charming atmosphere.

A wonderful bar that the wife and I happened upon while visiting Bardstown. The breakfast I had, the "Hot Brown" is one of the best breakfast dishes I've had in awhile. The little store they have there is cute and has lots of little trinkets and fun treats. I loved the environment of this place and it's a long bar that seems to stretch quite a bit from the front restaurant to the back. I will say that the hostess that greeted and sat us seemed to be having a bad day that may have translated into being a little less than welcoming. Not a detriment to the overall enjoyment of the food and drinks though.

Service and atmosphere are awesome. Food is not so much. I had the Bloody Mary, that was awesome. I had the country breakfast sandwich that was absolutely ruined by that cheap / Kraft type cheese. It’s a shame cuz the bar tender was great and the rest of sandwich was high quality and tasty. Also it was Friday morning and there was still a wait for a table. The lady at the front desk did not let us know that we could sit at the bar we found out ourselves! If the owner is reading this PLEASE use better cheese!

Mammy’s Kitchen and Bar is hands down the best breakfast we’ve had in the area. It was so good that we went back again the very next morning—something we rarely do on trips! Let me start with their Bloody Mary… absolutely AMAZING. Truly one of the best I’ve ever had. Between our two visits, we tried the Hangover Skillet, Biscuits & Gravy, the giant Cinnamon Roll, and the Fried Chicken Benedict—every single dish was delicious. The food came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. The atmosphere has a warm Southern charm, and the servers were friendly and welcoming both times we visited. If you’re anywhere near the area, don’t miss this place. It’s easily a must-stop breakfast spot!

This is a great place to eat with really good food! I know everything has gone up but the prices seemed a little high for what we received. I wish there was just one piece of french toast you could order instead of two great big pieces. The little three pieces of bacon was not worth $7.00 in my opinion. The sweet tea is fabulous! We always stop here and I don't mean to complain as it really is good food.

My friends and I came here for lunch after the heaven hill distillery tour. It was a recommendation from an employee there and I must say it was a great one. I ordered the Chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. Each of them were delicious. The chicken was fried and seasoned very well and went extremely well with the conrbread pancake. The mashed potatoes and gravy were real good and the mac and cheese was good. The only thing about the mac and cheese is that the noodles were bland. I really like that the menu was on a newspaper. You dont see that everyday. My friend ordered the bourbon grilled chicken and he seemed to really enjoy it. My other friends got burgers and they enjoyed that as well. A few of the guys got the bourbon bloody mary... sad to say it was not a hit. No one liked it. It was quickly replaced with old fashions and I had the Kentucky bourbon barrel stout. I liked it. The food here is definitely worth stopping in for. It will definitely hit the southern food spot if you are looking for one. Our hostess was very nice as well.

My mom and I showed up late in the evening for dinner and the staff was unbelievably accommodating! Our waitress was Bridget. She was an absolute doll and took wonderful care of us. I had the Hot Brown and my mom had the Bourbon Chicken. The food was tremendous after a long day exploring bardstown and its rich history. As someone who loves all kinds of Cole slaw it's a must have if you like it creamy and slightly sweet. Mammy's gets an A+ in my book. Definitely stop by if you're passing through!

Authentic small town feel. Cinnabon Pancakes are incredible. Breakfast Hotbrown is a must. If you are in Bardstown, it is a must try.

Hubby and I were in Kentucky for a motorcycle event and we stayed in Bardstown known for distilleries and the famous Hot Brown named for the Brown hotel in Louisville. Accordion the locals the best Hot Brown around town (see what I did there!) was at Mammy's. Since we've been eating hearty over the last few days we decided to split a Hot brown. Great decision because the portion size is pretty large. Think Texas toast with shaved turkey, ham covered with a secret hot brown sauce and topped with tomato and bacon! The flavor combinations were delicious although the ham was a tad bit salty. So I'd recommend having some water afterwards. For dessert we had the delicious lemon meringue pie that had the right amount of tartness and wasn't too sweet. Well done! Our waitress was friendly and answered our questions about meal choices with ease. The decor was reminiscent of an old country store with trendy touches of neon here and there. If you're in town I'd recommend visiting Mammy's in the bourbon capital of the world.

First of all it's hard to find a parking spot. We thought well that's a good sign must be good. Nope! It's a very loud restaurant with music playing way too loud. The atmosphere was okay. The seats were not padded at the tables if that's an issue for you. We were seated right away. The servers were confused as to who had our table. But that happens and server we ended up with was very nice. We ordered...the food arrived very quickly. I had the ribeye 6oz, green beans and Mac and cheese. My steak was so tough it was hard to cut. I was so hungry I ate the whole thing though. The green beans were southern cooked and tasted good. The Mac and cheese was just okay. My husband had the pork chops and they were tough as well and covered with a sweet sauce. Large portions but not worth the time looking for a parking spot. I would not return.

I have to clean today so decided to treat myself first /; Enjoyed a mimosa and the "baby brown", which is a smaller version of their hot brown. I will definitely have plenty left for dinner! The mimosa was fresh, fast service and friendly staff. Always a good experience here!

Wish we could have tried it to review the food!! We looked over the menu in advance and were looking forward to trying a few things. We went in and sat at the bar. None of the bartenders would even acknowledge us. There were just the 2 of us and we usually sit at the bar. However, seems there was no service offered at the bar. We sat and waited a while but the bartenders seemed too busy or distracted to help us. Such a bummer :-(

This family owned business never disappoints and always great food! Been coming here for several years and it's a landmark now for tourist. Today I tried the pork rinds and it's was a meal!

Decent selection of lunch options, and especially enjoyed my slice of butterscotch meringue pie on this pi day! Our waitress was attentive and friendly throughout our lunch experience.

Loved it!! Food was amazing, too much even. Service was nice, ambiance feels nice and cozy! Get the fried pickles. They're TO DIE for. I'm still thinking about it now. And thank you to the server asking if I want my Long Island "Kentucky Style"

More of a bar than a kitchen but we ended up here because most places in Bardstown close at 8 pm on a Sunday night. The food menu at that time of night was very limited. Friend and I ordered the Hot Brown which was delicious but arrived at our table not hot but luke warm. We probably should have pushed the issue and insisted they warm it up but we were tired and hungry. I ordered a cocktail that never arrived but by the time we were done eating I just let that ride. Might go here again, but there are better places in the area to eat.

We have went to Mammy's many of times. I have no idea what has happened but, the last few times it has not been worth it. Most recently we went yesterday and the food with bland, cold, and expensive. Our waitress was very sweet but, the $80 we spent for two people was not it. The only thing not pictured was the pork chops we also got. They were okay but, was not aware they were bone in or we wouldn't have got them. The ranch also was disappointing. Hidden Valley tastes better. We did not say anything because any time we have or seen someone else say something the management gets very defensive. I understand defending your restaurant but, when you get that type of treatment it isn't worth saying a thing. I hope to see Mammys go back to what it was before but, if you are from out of town I suggest one of the other local restaurants.

Checked Yelp for local places to eat while staying in Loretta. Everything worth eating pointed to Bardstown. We decided on Mammy's. This was also suggested by our distillery tour guide. We arrived and found parking around the building. It was a Saturday evening but the town at 8pm was not very busy neither was the restaurant. We found seating at the bar right away. The wait staff was pleasant and kind. Lots of smiles and welcomed when we sat down. Ordered drinks and they were promptly made and delicious. I had the 12oz steak with two vegetables broccoli and green beans. I ordered a medium rear steak. It arrived medium. The broccoli was steamed but they had put a seasoning that was extremely salty. My green beans were boiled and palpable. Overall my meal was a 3 out of five. My husband had the country fried pork chop with mashed potatoes and gravy and pinto beans. He absolutely loved his. I ended up eating half his meal because I did not like mine. Dinner and drinks $66.00 but $80.00 with tip. I did do a walk about the restaurant and found the decor very pleasing. Goods and chocolates available at the "country store" inside the restaurant. Very interesting concept. Nice stop but nothing note worthy.

During our visit to Kentucky, we wanted some good old Kentucky soul food and were directed to Mammy's. The place is pretty big with its own gift shop and bar in the back. There's a replica of the owner's childhood porch and the menus are a charming newspaper style. Service was quite friendly and accommodating. The young lady was attentive to our needs and even split the pie for us without asking. The food was pretty solid, with portions being very large especially the Hot Brown. The highlight for us was the fried pickles, we could've kept going on those! The pie was good but got a little too sweet for our liking after a while. Mammy's was a solid spot for our dinner after a day of drinking. Another plus though is that it has a good location within walking distance of other points of interest.

We came in for breakfast and were welcomed in by a polite lady. After being sat at a table and perusing the menu we ordered our breakfast. Service was prompt and the waitress checked on us often. The place was clean, but the food was just ok. And it's somewhat overpriced.

We just got our Real ID Drivers License in Bardstown and decided on lunch at Mammy's Kitchen. It's an old 1797 building that is quite busy as we waited about 10 minutes for a table. That not too bad. Our server was polite and accommodating. My wife ordered a chicken fingers chef salad while I went with the chicken fingers platter with fries. We both had leftovers as it was too much food to eat in one sitting. Do note that the chicken fingers platter comes with a bowl of white gravy to dip your chicken fingers into. This is the south, folks. Although they don't have a parking lot there is nearby street parking plus a free city parking lot behind the building that you can access from Flaget Street and Third or Fourth Street.

Coming to Kentucky for the weekend (my 1st time) and asking the locals "where should we eat"? Everyone says Mammy's is the place to go. So with that and everyone having a unanimous opinion we decided to go. Let's just say from the moment we arrived we weren't impressed. Walking thru the bar to the dining hall we were directed by the waitress and said we could sit at the serving station bar for dinner. 12 minutes later we head to the front desk to put our names on the waitlist and mentioned that we've been waiting for anyone to take our order and were told "we're really stressed" and couldn't help us. What kind of answer is that from not one but several of the staff?! Would have loved to take the time to enjoy some down home cooking, but when your management / staff can't accommodate a 2 top it's really disappointing to see in this economy to turn away customers.

IS THERE REALLY A MAMMY? 3 Michigan men in the area to do some bourbon tasting. A local recommended Mammy's for lunch. The food was outstanding & the Old Fashioneds were even better! We were told by the workers that the owner/cook was actually Mammy! We didn't believe them, we needed to meet Mammy for ourselves. So, to our surprise, Mammy does work there & took the time to meet us...Thank you Mammy! We'll be back!

All right so I got the hot brown cause it was supposed to be pretty good. Wanted to try it as I do it all these restaurants. I also got some mac & cheese cause I had to try that she just got a salad. It was pretty standard. Not much to talk about. I am not too happy one because they're their Pepsi products. But they do have big red if you want to buy a soda however I did not see a price for soda on the menu so I didn't get one. The hot brown was pretty good although a bit pricey at 1850 it was different than many because it came with shredded ham and turkey in it with chopped up toast and bacon bits on top so while I kind of enjoyed that it was pretty far from traditional and the sauce was not a root just a cheese sauce, mixture of cheddar and white cheese, not authentic at all, and I would've really liked some strips of bacon instead of the bacon bit, but it was a decent portion. Mac & cheese was creamy and had some flavor. It wasn't the best ever. I'd like it a little bit more cheddar to it. I like the building and the way it's set up. It's very cozy. You have to walk pretty far through the bar to get to the dining area, but we came in the front door and I think most of the parking and everything id in the back. They do have a way to pay the check through the toast app and you can join their loyalty program and earn points and get a birthday treat. The service is Prompton fast. The problem I had is I asked the waitress if for the three dollars it talks about an upgrade or whatever the menu with an entrée if that meant I could get mac & cheese added to my meal for the three dollars and she said yes, you can get mac & cheese. She did not clarify that it would be six dollars. I really believe that no side of mac & cheese on earth is worth six dollars. I was charged the full 599 like ordering an à la cart but that's OK I took the extra three dollars off her tip.. if I hadn't been misled this review would be four stars cause it was a pretty good if not very authentic version of a hot brown and the macaroni and cheese is at least B level of not B plus. Strangely, at least for my mother there's no fish on the menu whatsoever. Kind of unusual for restaurants like this kind of down homesy and soul food style not to offer some sort of fish.

Amazing cooking! A little bit of everything. Best. Pancakes. Ever. Friendly service, atmosphere perfect for menu.

We came for breakfast and sat at the bar. The server was nice, but either she forgot to put our orders in, or the kitchen was short-staffed. We waited longer for our food than we should have. It was approx. 45 minutes. I ordered an omelette with rye toast. I wanted tomatoes added to the omelette, and assumed the toast would be buttered. No tomatoes, and my cold toast was not buttered. A shame because I was looking forward the rye toast.

Love the look of this place. Was decorated for Halloween when we went. Lively bar if you enter from front. Would need to enter from back into restaurant if you need a ramp. Country Fried Steak was good. Not spectacular. Our drinks seemed a bit off. I had Malibu pineapple and still not sure if that's what I received after questioning it. Maggie was our waitress. She was straightforward, not overly welcoming. Would still try it again because of the fun atmosphere.

Mammys kitchen is amazing. One of the nicest in Bardstown in my opinion. Great food good prices, a really cool interior. Great service and staff. I will admit I ordered the pulled pork. It was good but not my favorite. A bit too sloppy with the sauce for my tastes but would still go back for this delicious restaurant.

It was a pretty busy night, but the food was excellent, and the staff was friendly. I had my first Hot Brown.

We had a great experience here. The bartender understood everything about the bourbon, or at least enough to guide us well. The food was good and so was the atmosphere. I would recommend this restaurant to other travelers, passing through

Stopped here for lunch upon getting into town. Had the bourbon burger which was very tasty. Service was good and we enjoyed our meal. There are two sections to the restaurant. The main dinning room and a separate bar dinning room. Each one looked nice and if I came back I would probably sit in the bar area.

A nice place for a good meal inside Bardstown. Saw a bunch of locals eating there. Lunch was good. The fries were excellent. Service was good and timely. They kept us on schedule so that we can hit our next bourbon tour as planned.

Haven't been in years - the family traveled hours to have lunch again at Mammy's and it did not disappoint. As delicious as many menu items are, the Hot Brown is the 'target meal' - and ours today (three of the five of us ordered one, with a fourth eating a good portion of Mom's) were as good as always. Wish it were closer!

I visited early in the morning looking for a hearty breakfast in order to prepare for a day of "sampling," and this place did not disappoint.  The host and waitress were both very friendly and prompt.  My coffee and water were always kept full and the food was very good.  The portions were hearty and a great value, but best of all was the fact that there's history here and the atmosphere matched the area.  This is now the only place i will come to when i visit Bardstown.

The place was very nice looking inside. I was looking forward to a nice country breakfast. But, it took forever to get our food. Not crowded at all inside so that was surprising. The eggs benedict was average. and the hash browns were frozen patties cut into strips. that was the biggest disappointment. service was ok as well. Everyone ( 4 of us) came out of there a bit bummed.

Great service good food parking is fine. Nice layout. I will come back!!!!!!!!!. I hhhh

Local and yummy food. I had bourbon glazed chicken sandwich with homemade chips. It was delicious! My husband got a Rueben with fries and was very pleased with it. We dined outside with our dog and patio was lovely. Inside looked very fun.

Mammy's is a local "diner" type place that serves good ole Southern comfort food. The restaurant has a barn-like feel decorated with memorabilia of the history of the restaurant and many Southern accents. Mammy's gave me the opportunity to finally try the infamous Kentucky Hot Brown. I ordered their Baby Hot Brown which is a smaller version of the traditional hot brown. The Baby Hot Brown was still a fairly large portion. The hot brown is a knockoff of a Welsh rarebit. It is an open faced ham and turkey sandwich that is topped with a creamy Mornay sauce and sliced bacon. It was very flavorful, tasty, and rich. I don't think I would have finished a full portion!! Service was friendly and good. Food is delicious down home cooking. They offer both outdoor patio and indoor dining. They also have a full bar. I would definitely recommend this popular place when visiting Bardstown.

We were on a tour along the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, primarily heading through the cute village of Bardstown, and our tour guide led us to Mammy's Kitchen & Bar for lunch. The kitchy, local spot was adorned with fun, Southern accents that created a barnlike atmosphere. The menus looked like newspapers, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. When it came to the food, it was very much standard American pub fare. I ordered the Grilled Chicken Sandwich, adding toppings of honey mustard and sautéed mushrooms. The hearty sandwich was served on a soft, fluffy roll, and the toppings really helped add flavor to the otherwise basic chicken breast. A pickle and handful of crispy potato chips came on the side. These chips definitely appeared homemade, rather than something out of a bag. They were great! Mammy's Kitchen & Bar was a cozy, casual, and approachable spot that made for a traditional Southern lunch for us visitors.

Our server was wonderful. The ambiance was fun and historical. The food is a different story. We ordered the Ruben sandwich and a whiskey bbq hamburger and a dude of mac&cheese. The food was like warm to include the m&c and tater tots. Sent the food back to heat it. The Mac and cheese was overly salted and inedible. The Rubin was two pieces of grease soaked white bread with a smear of finely chopped corn beef with a few shredded of sauerkraut, a ton of garlic and a stingy amount of cheese. It made my wife and me sick with tremendous gastrointestinal intestinal issues within 2 hours. I'm calling the Nelson County health department to report the restaurant. Don't eat at Mammy's. It's over priced too. $40 for the food. MacDonald's serves better food.

Loved this place! Great atmosphere & interesting decor! I got the Mafia burger on a cornbread bun--it was GREAT!! We got green beans based on other reviews but they weren't our cup of tea? Others in our party ordered the Hot Brown, Chicken sandwich, and meatloaf. Loved it all, but burger was best!! Too full to try dessert, sadly! We had to wait a long time for a drink refill-only complaint!

We got here early enough on a Sunday to get a table right away. We were celebrating a birthday, there were just 3 in our party. They have a western, back home country décor through out the dining were sat at, they even had a cute miniature front porch display. The menus were newspaper with stories on them. We all got coffees, they give you a cup of individual creamers & sugar packets. I ordered the bourbon bon pancakes and the others ordered the Ribeye steak (medium done) & eggs & the breakfast bowl in a skillet. It took a while for the food to come out, that we got a refills on our coffees & I got a water. When the food came out, first thing we noticed my pancake was massive & the ribeye steak was cooked to well done. We didn't complain since we were hungry. The bourbon-bon pancake was good & thick for its size, you can find some bites of bourbon flavor & the cinnamon crispy, just too overly sweet for me with the amount icing on it. When our waitress came around ( they started getting busy & she was the only one in our area) I ordered the loaded hash brown which didn't take long to come out, it was okay for me it was alot of onions, basic American cheese & like frozen hash brown Pattie's cut into 4 small pieces. Overly it was a good experience & the food was decent. If you are watching your budget it not necessarily pricey but about $16 for one massive pancake & $6 for a small basic loaded hashbrown has me questioning if I will return or not.

Everything was 5 star but the service. Even upon entering we were not greeted until I realized we came in from the main street and not the back. No hostess was at the station and when I asked I was told to sit anywhere. Seems they were all in deep conversation at the end of the bar. We did and waited and waited and waited. I finally got up to read the newspaper at the hostess stand only to realize it was a menu. And what a menu it is. So many delicious sounding items. I picked the sandwich and it was huge and tasty but I would ask to substitute some other cheese as it had a sweet taste like sweet Velveeta cheese sauce. Hubby's omelette was tasty but unattractive. The biscuit was good also. I noticed others mentioned service in their reviews. Seems to be something to work on here and we'd have 5 stars.

First time in 12 years had a great server. Food as always is amazing. Don't come if you are in a hurry. The place is always busy

This place used to be delicious. It was homecoming. Now it's expensive and they serve frozen hash brown patties for breakfast.

Food was great!! Service too! I definitely recommend it and can't wait to go back. Serving size was more than enough, so much so we weren't able to try the delicious pies they make fresh daily!

Just came back from our second day of the Bourbon Trail. This restaurant was recommended by the hotel staff, so we decided to try. Had a late dinner. Even though it was late in the evening, we still had quite a wait. Place was not packed. Spacious inside with southern decor. One area of the restaurant paying homage to its original owner. Gift shop near the entrance and a bar in the back, which looked like it had more patrons than the restaurant. Seemed like there were only three wait staff that night. Even though our waiter was very busy with numerous tables, he was apologetic for the wait, pleasant, always smiled, very funny, and served our food promptly. Typical southern food. Tried the Hot Brown as we never had it before. It was delicious!! The pork chop and bourbon burger was average. And, because we had a late dinner, we had pieces of leftover pies, which were good. We visit Kentucky frequently for the Bourbon Trail so, I would go back to this restaurant and give it another try but for breakfast.

Such an awesome experience and some of the best food. The Kentucky BLT came with some of the best pimento cheese I have ever had

9/14/24 visit Food was fantastic. Pancake and thick maple syrup was a great "appetizer" the 4 of us split. Portions were huge. We all had leftovers on the plates when leaving. Tables were clean, silverware a bit spotty & menus a bit sticky. Food came out a bit slow but considering the place was packed at 9am we kind of figured that would happen. Service was just OK. Servers had too many tables going and that allowed refills and none of our plates were ever cleared from the table. I'd recommend for a hearty home cooked breakfast. All our meals tasted fantastic and were served hot. Don't go if you're in a hurry though.

Went for weekday dinner and ordered the Kentucky BLT. It was so incredibly greasy! The onion rings the same. You could see the grease on the plate and I went through numerous napkins wiping my hands from all the grease. The sandwich fell apart and the breading was falling off the onion rings. My husband's dinner was mediocre at best. Place looked worn and needs update. One of the worse meals I've had in a while and we'll never go back.

My husband and I got to experience the BLT-E for breakfast and I tell ya-this was so great. Classic BLT with a juicy fried green tomato and an egg. Clean, crisp, juicy, great bacon and perfect portion made it fulfilling. Mammy's atmosphere was warm and welcoming! Thank you! And we will return!

Very cool restaurant. Fun, eclectic motif & great atmosphere. The fried pickles were perfectly crisp and served with two sauces. The Hot Brown was dryer than desired but still had a good flavor. The Cornbread Mafia Burger was fantastic. Butterscotch Pie was very good. Will return

Vibe. Great vibe in the bar area. Nice wood paneling. Wood bar. A real warmth to it. Service. Service was pretty solid. They were clearly understaffed but we're doing their best to try and make up for that. Food. Everyone got the beans and cornbread so that's all I can comment on. The beans were very good and the corn bread was fantastic. Bourbon. They have a great bourbon list. Their list isn't necessarily reflective of what they actually have though.

Came into Mammy's for dinner around 7-7:30 on a Saturday night. Yeah I know that time and day we for sure set ourselves up for failure. The wait was about 45 minutes to an hour. We still decide to wait it out. I will say we waited closer to 40 minutes before we got our table. Once seated you get a a news paper like menu and let me tell you it is huge. Being in Kentucky I knew what I had to get at Mammy's, The Downtown Kentucky Hot Down. This comes on toast with topped with turkey, ham, Hot Brown Sauce then topped with cheese and bacon for good measure. Now this thing is huge abut extremely tasty and heavy. I was unable to put it away that's for sure. If you find yourself in Kentucky you have t get yourself the Hot Brown!

It's pretty overpriced. The chicken fried chicken was good because the gravy is good. I don't know why people rave about the pickles. They weren't very good. I was happy with my meal and my hubby liked the burger, but the other 6 people were not impressed. My friend called it an expensive Cracker Barrel.
