Freight House is a kid-friendly restaurant with a wonderful ambiance!

Perhaps the most surprising part of our weekend adventure in and around Shawnee National Forest was our meal at “Freight House” in downtown Paducah.  Founded by Chef Sara Bradley – runner up of season 16 of Top Chef – “Freight House” gets 5 out of 5 stars for its ambiance, food, kid-friendliness, and service.  Everything was fresh, high quality, and approachable. 

Though there is no formal kids’ menu, they happily served our kids' quesadillas.  My husband and I got deviled eggs as a starter and delicious scallops as a main and then we shared a family dessert of chocolate cake.  After dinner, the sweetest and most pregnant Sara Bradley gave our girls a tour of the kitchen and showed them the walk-in freezer, and the giant dishwasher, and then handed us freshly baked cookies to go.  It’s these kinds of touches that make meals memorable.
