There are so many restaurants in Kentucky that prove the old adage that great things do come in small packages. Driving across American, the landscape is dotted with chain restaurants and big-box stores. And while we appreciate the convenience we’re also dedicated to supporting the smaller mom and pop spots that keep this state running. This place is a great example!

Welcome to Little Town & Country Restaurant in Bedford, where the food is good, the people are friendly and the space is small!

This little spot feels like stepping back into the 1950s. That could be the result of having been family-owned and operated since way back then! While the world outside has certainly changed, the family-friendly smiles and great customer service have not. In fact, this little spot will welcome you just like family.

You’ll see Little Town & Country from the street. In fact, you can’t miss it! The sign and the building carry an unmistakable sense of nostalgia.

But, despite being small, the meal you’ll gobble up inside is anything but tiny. Homemade meatloaf, anyone?

The menu is simple, and you’ll find specials on the wall, too.

Place an order at the counter, then find yourself a table. Friendly faces will prepare your meal and bring it out to you. When you’re done eating and chatting, make your way back to the car and make room for someone else. This place is popular!

In addition to the fact that these meals are filling, they’re also classic. Krinkle-cut fries make their juicy cheeseburger even more delicious.

And this double decker version is something you’re going to want to hope is on the specials list!
