There are so many great places to eat in Kentucky that it’s easy to choose a different place for each meal…and not have any repeats for months! But, of course, when you find something you love you tend to go back over and over again. That’s exactly the case with this delicious buffet in Bardstown. It’s stocked with some of the best comfort food in the state and it’s been around so long it feels like a real part of the community.
We know that referring to anything as the best can be a bold statement, but in this case we feel pretty confident in our assessment!
