Wilder's Cafe

The food here was delicious. Highlight was the cinnamon roll. I had the signature burrito as my main and their tomato jam in it was so delicious. It's a walk up to order, then sit at a table kind of place. I was worried that they wouldn't find our table but I worried for no reason. Very chill vibe, I'd eat here again if we were in the area

The eggs taste super gamey and they're never cooked as ordered. (Runny whites.)We've been here a few times, and every time is disappointing. The folks inside are friendly and I really want to like this spot, but it isn't a place I'd ever recommend.

In an attempt to find a local business for brunch, the original one chosen had a 1 hour waitlist. That definitely tells you it's good if people will wait. However, given we had driven over an hour and were now hangry, we needed somewhere close and quick.Another online review source gave this place high marks as it was here or the chain breakfast restaurant closer to where we started.Called in to hear that they were steadily busy but not crazy. The GPS confused us because the sign on where to turn and what the GPS said didn't match, which made us miss the turn.This quaint little cafe is tucked in the corner of a small strip mall. It looks like it used to be part of a drive thru take out place before as there was a drive up window and an unconnected order menu board.This is ideal spot for the local neighborhood and you can tell it's well liked as there was a steady stream of patrons in/out for sit down and take out.They had a cute little breakfast bar with pastries that is ideal for a grab and go thing. The bar has bourbon barrel seats which definitely keeps you in the KY atmosphere.We arrived a little close to 1230pm. There were a couple tables ready to sit at but had to ask for someone to clean up. The table next to us had a small family seated before us. We noticed that although the table top was cleaned, the chairs and floor with the crumbles from the Littles was not swept up.Although it wasn't filthy, it was a little distracting when we realized the next person who sat down didn't realize they sat on food.The staff are either high school or early college students. All were pleasant and helpful. Hubby ordered the biscuits and gravy. When I asked why he didn't order any sides he said we were already rung up our order that didn't give him a chance to ask. Of course, that's also his fault for not speaking up (haha).My order was the French Toast which was supposed to come with a bourbon Maple syrup and pecans. Not a big pecan fan so it wasn't a big deal it was missing but there wasn't even a hint of bourbon detected. The extra egg and sausage ordered was perfect and a good choice for sides. It's just too bad they didn't include it as part of the order.My suggestion would be to order the classic if you want a traditional big breakfast. The steel cut oatmeal bowls looked appealing and good portion. The same with the beignets they offer.The gravy was a disappointment. Although not a bad flavor, when you've grown up with SOS style gravy the expectations are a bit high. From what it tasted the gravy is more of a chicken base than a sausage based flavoring that we're used to enjoying. This isn't necessarily a bad thing but helpful to know if you are expecting what we did.Overall, it is in hopes that Hardin County opens up something like this place for us to enjoy closer to home.If you're in Oldham County,this may be a good option for a quaint weekend place that's not insanely busy with decent food and service.

Five of us came in on a Sunday at 11. They were busy, but waiting 45min to receive food is unacceptable. Especially when 3 tables (a total of 10) come in after you, receive their food, and were pretty much done. No check-ins from staff..apologize for the wait, etc. Food was solid, but definitely not worth the wait.

My wife & I had breakfast at Wilder's Cafe on Sunday 11/26/23. Service was very good, food was very good, overall a very good experience.We will be returning sooner rather than later.

Quaint little breakfast nook. Food was tasty and cold brew was strong. Service was friendly and helpful. Wish they didn't have cleaning supplies and trash can in view behind the counter and maybe some music playing. Minor issues compared to a great overall experience will definitely recommend this place.

Food, service, & ambiance good!! Always enjoy our meals here!! My daughter enjoys it as well when she comes from Seattle!! Delicious

Service was wonderful, atmosphere was inviting, food was DELISH. A wonderful way to spend my Sunday morning with family!

We decided to check this place out for breakfast today. The dining room was full when we arrived but a table opened up right after we ordered. We had a breakfast sandwich, French toast, steel cut oats, and the skinny. All of the food was excellent. The only rub for us was the service. They seemed to be short staffed. It took quite a while to get our food. I'll cut them some slack because it was the Sunday brunch rush. Overall it was great food and we'll be back to have it again. Hopefully the service is better next time.

Greatttt omelette! Potato's were so crispy and hot! Biscuit felt homemade in the best way
