About this business

Louisville's own Lynn Winter opened her little slice of paradise more than a decade ago and has since become a national attraction and local treasure. As unique and quirky as Lynn herself, Lynn's Paradise Cafe offers the tastiest "down home" cooking, the wackiest decor, and genuine southern hospitality. Our fun and family friendly atmosphere, the World of Swirl gift shop, and our central "Louisville - Highlands" location has made Lynn's Paradise Cafe a popular destination for anyone. Thanks for visiting us in cyberspace, but... read more

Very Overrated – The one thing I like about Lynn's is its quirkiness. But the food is so consistently bad that I wouldn't go there even for the cute overpriced boutique in front of the restaurant and the novelty. The first time I went, I got the biscuits and gravy, and the whole concoction was actually frozen inside! It was also gray, tasteless, and goopy. Another time I got French toast and it was tasteless. My mom had the ham, and she said it tasted like what she imagines the leather sole of a shoe would taste like. For th... read more

A fun place to eat – The food is great especially the sweet potatoes fries and french toast. They have alot of cool stuff to look at from the 60's and 70's. From my experience there, it can get pretty loud and the waits are long if you don't make reservation especially for breakfasts and dinner on the weekend. It's slow around lunchtime during the week. I also agreed that it's a bit pricey. Parking can be difficult to find. Sometimes the service is very slow too. But for the food, I would say it's worth it to go there once a... read more

You do get a lot of food, but I would not eat breakfast there again because it is too expensive.

Ms. – Lynn's is GREAT!! I always take out-of-town company there because they have great food, a memorably fun atmosphere, FANTASTICALLY happy service, and they have always done a great job with our big parties. I recommend making reservations....they take them any time for ANY sized party!!!

You need to be in a mood – Everyone is different, and I know that everyone I know worships Lynn's, but IMHO... I have been several times. The best time is breakfast. The gravy and biscuit with orange juice is superlative anywhere. The rest of the breakfast fare is good. Lunch and dinner have never been winners for me. I like the restaurant, but I have to be in a mood for the bright colors and the long wait to sit - it is busy. Most love the festive decor. Parking can be a chore as well anytime of day. And I found it a bit ov... read more

Biscuits and Grave Above the Rest – Louisville has many great breakfast spots but Lynn's combines great food quality, fun atmosphere, and true neighborhood locale to stand above the rest.

Never Missed a breakfast – I'm an ex-louisville resident and whenever I'm in town with my family, it always includes at least one trip to Lynn's for breakfast. It's definitely one of the many things I miss about home in Louisville.

Pretty-People Food – It's too artsy-fancy for me. I like all the toys, but I can do without the food. A suggestion for ALL restaurants: Not ALL vegetarians eat fancy, exotic food covered in peppers and onions!
