Green River Grill

Green River Grill & Bar

A restaurant in the Mammoth Cave Lodge inside the park, a few steps from the visitor center, serving Kentucky home cooking for three meals a day.

Located in the Mammoth Cave Lodge inside the park, about 150 meters from the visitor center, this is the most convenient place to eat before and after a cave tour. Its Kentucky menu features local and nearby farm ingredients: Kentucky Hot Brown, fried chicken, lemon pepper trout and fried green tomatoes. Breakfast includes country ham with pepper jack cheese grits. Reviews are middling, but the location is the main draw. Expect about US$15–30 per person. Expect waits during peak mealtimes.
