Glenn's Creek Café is located inside the Woodford Reserve Visitor's Center. It is a nice place to wait for a distillery tour or relax after a tour. The food is great and prices are reasonable. Try the Bourbon Trail Chili. My husband and I both ordered it and it was excellent. There are tables inside and also outside on the patio.

Madison's Lunch Box

Reviewed By travelmkz

A nice, wonderful place to have breakfast or lunch on Main Street. The food is great diner style food with friendly service. The pancakes, hash-browns and ham are great. My wife has also had the tuna salad sandwich and loved it. Don't skip the fries.It tends to get busy and packed on Saturday mornings. Much better to go on a weekday morning. The service will be faster.

Callies Homestyle Restaurant

Reviewed By KentuckyKay

We ate here passing through town. Based on the reviews I thought it would be easy to quick to eat and reasonably priced. I was right and will definitely return. The onion rings can’t be beat. Chicken fingers are fresh battered. Fish looked fresh battered also. I had a salad and the blue cheese dressing tasted homemade. Every table in the restaurant was occupied which makes me think that locals eat here routinely. They posted a daily special and several desserts. Very pleased with quality, service and price.

Highly recommend you try this place. The menu is varied and the food is great! I had ‘The Wildcat’ flatbread. Some of the best brisket I have ever eaten, and the combination of brisket, bourbon bacon jam and horseradish sauce was perfect!We had a great waiter named Jason and he had lots of recommendations for beer and food.Casual spot and located not far from the Holiday Inn Express in Versailles, KY.

I took my wife hear for a surprise lunch on her birthday in mid-April, 2018. I had read the reviews and was a bit reluctant to book a reservation, but I finally did it. The restaurant had strands of lights, mirrors, candles on the tables and other accents to make it memorable. It has a very feminine feel to it, and I understand from the reviews that it is a popular destination for groups of women.The menu consists of a choice of one of two entrees, and some additional food items. They started us off with a drink that they call the Spiced Apple Refresher, and it was refreshing. For our appetizer, we chose Stuffed New Potatoes, which came stuffed with cheese, sour cream and bacon. I am not a fan of sour cream, but it works pretty well on potatoes. This was a decent dish, but they drizzled it with vinegar, which made the potatoes too sour. Four our entrée, we both picked the Chicken Cordon Blueberry -- it was that, or the Salmon Soufflé. My wife likes Chicken Cordon Bleu, but I am not a fan of it, so this was not satisfying for me. It was good, but not outstanding. The dish was served with a cheese and blueberry sauce, and a salad. I enjoyed the salad, which consisted of greens, onions, blueberries, apple slices and sliced almonds, drizzled with a blueberry vinaigrette. For dessert, we were offered either pound cake with lemon curd, strawberries, and whipped cream, which my wife chose, and something called the Nonesuch Kiss, named after the local area, which is called Nonesuch, Kentucky. It was a combination of jamocha ice cream on a crispy meringue, topped with whipped cream and a cherry, and with chocolate sauce on the plate around it. Both desserts were very good.The menu changes regularly throughout the season -- they are only open certain months of the year -- so it pays to look online or give them a call to see what that they are serving.After we ate, we looked around at the antiques in the Irish Acres Antiques store, where the restaurant is located. The antiques were too pricy for us, so we did a very quick walk-through before leaving.All in all it was a decent visit, but one that we likely will not repeat.

Received a suggested to go and have a hot brown. It lived up to every description. Sat at the bar and enjoyed ambiance and a very tasty sandwich. Looked good and tasted better, Looks like a heavy mean, but surprisingly not. The hot brown is a must try.

Great little place for home cooking.. great catfish with perfect breading. Husband has meatloaf and loved. Corn pudding too sweet for me, but others liked it. Try the bread pudding.. I would like more bourbon in it but it does taste homemade.
