Cottage Inn

"A local recommended this place for good southern comfort food. We came in close to closing, however they still served us! The waitstaff and management were very hospitable and sweet. We got the chicken liver, fried chicken, tenders, and their cake. All of it was absolutely delicious and an eye opener to southern cuisine. This restaurant has been open since 1929 and seems to be going along strong for almost a century, that is a testament to the quality of service and food throughout their history. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for a cozy experience with great food and great service."

"Comfort food tucked away in a spot you probably never noticed before. Reasonable prices on pretty standard country cooking. This place has been here for almost a hundred years."

"I had high expectations on Cottage Inn based on previous reviews that mentioned them having the best fried chicken in town. Portions are HUGE and presentation was OK but the food was bland. We got the fried pork chop meal with mashed potatoes and corn bread, a chicken blt sandwich and fries, a fried chicken meal with mash potatoes and collard greens and a kids grilled cheese and corn. I also had a sweet tea which was not sweet. The cornbread was a cupcake. It wasn’t like cornbread at all but like a very sweet and fluffy cake. One order of masked potatoes was supposed to be without gravy but had gravy anyway. The chicken was fried well but had no flavor. The collard greens were not fresh or seasoned well and may have been from out of a can. Once we added some condiments to the food it was enjoyable enough and we did eat a good portion of our food. Our server, Melissa was trying her best to provide good service but she dropped the ball a few times. Our child was coloring a little rough with one of two crayons they provided with his kids menu and Melissa stopped in the middle of taking our order to tell us that they only have a few crayons in the house and would appreciate it if our toddler didn’t ruin them. The space was very tight where we were sat and we were very close to the bathroom but we did get to sit by a big window with a beautiful view of the front yard so that was enjoyable. Maybe they were having an off day but overall, we will not be back."

"One of the best chicken in Louisville. Cruncy outside and very soft inside. Mashed potatoes with white gravy are very good. Coleslaw it's quite good. Waiters kind e clean place."
