Melisa's Family Diner — Restaurant in Frankfort

Great find! The food was great and everyone was friendly. We showed up 30 minutes before closing time and they waited on us like they had just opened. Btw 15 minutes prior to closing is the cut-off. We ordered the catfish plate with greens & cabbage and the chicken fried steak with greens & mashed potatoes. Everything tasted fresh and had that good ole homemade flavor! That’s fried cornbread they brought out which is also made per order. I could tell they were tired at the end of their shift but they still handed out smiles and conversations. We didn’t know it until we were leaving but Melisa herself had waited on us while we were there. We plan on stopping back by for breakfast when we come through the area again! Google maps took us right to the place. They are located on the upper left corner of the building. Inside and outside...

My friends and I got breakfast at Melisa's Diner during our stay in Frankfurt while traversing the Bourbon Trail. It was the perfect comfort food to start our day. Clean restaurant, prompt, friendly service, and tasty food that won't break your budget. It's pretty small, so plan to go before "rush hour." If I could give them bonus stars for hospitality, I would. I left my Yeti tumbler behind and they kindly mailed it home to me, since we were two hours away before we realized what had happened. Thanks again, Melisa...

Don't pass this diner up. We stopped here while on the bourbon trail based on the reviews, and everyone was spot on. Melisa and team are phenomenonal, making you feel like a regular as soon as you walk in. Food was flavorful, plentiful and decently priced. We had the omelet (made any way you want) with hash browns and biscuits (all sooooo good). Also, the grits, 2 sunny side up eggs with bacon and biscuits (grits the way they should be). Service with a smile and Melisa truly cares about her customers. Please...
