Carriss's Grocery — Local services in Shelbyville

Been coming here for many years and nowhere in Kentucky will you find another place like. I was introduced to Carriss's many years ago by my best friend Willie, a true legend of Mt. Eden ,Ky. It's like a country store that our grandparents used before big box stores destroyed Americana. It is ran by truly good people who cares about what you eat.

Doesn't matter, this hidden Gem is worth the drive of the interstate. Highly recommend stopping by for a visit. You won't be disappointed. Great atmosphere, food and nostalgia. This is not...
