Best Restaurants with Bar Seating in Highlands - Bardstown Rd / Taylorsville Rd

It’s a great sign when you pull into the parking lot of Morning Fork at 11:50am on a Sunday and there are NO spots to be had. Any doubts I may have had about trying this restaurant while visiting Louisville were immediately erased, even though that meant driving around an unfamiliar neighborhood without the benefit of coffee. I had the avocado toast, per our server’s recommendation, and my husband had the skillet. Both were delicious, and we intend to visit again the next time we’re in town. I also really enjoyed the African coffee. When in doubt, make reservations, especially if it is too inclement to sit outside. As we were leaving the hostess was on the phone explaining that all they had available was bar seating and that was first come, first serve.

Had a reservation for 5:00 in the bar. Was seated immediately and server came by to welcome and bring menus and take a drink order. Brought wonderful warm bread and butter and let us enjoy the evening without rushingor pushing to order. When we were ready an order was placed and served in a timely manner. It was a delicious meal and a lovely evening. Can’t wait to do it again!!

It was a very comfortable place to celebrate a birthday. The ambience was excellent. The service was fantastic. The person working were outstanding. Will definitely go back again.

Our server was very nice and understanding. The drinks were amazing and the so was the stake!
