Athens Lunchroom is back at Athens Walnut Hill Pike with a new look, menu, and management featuring some traditional favorites and some new items at the Athens Schoolhouse.
The lunchroom is proudly serving Evans Mill local fresh Angus Beef (you can drive a few miles down the road and see the farm).
Fresh and fast dining options available, but if you’re pressed for time, you can take advantage of the deli cooler with desserts and baked goods such as housemade lasagna by Annette (get the strawberry cake) and a variety of fresh made sandwiches such as chicken salad and pimento cheese.
Craving that IP&J Cuban sandwich or beans and rice? It’s there. Grab a Cubano by Chef Jesus from IP&J Cuban Food, wine, sandwiches with housemade spreads and other goodies!
Live music outside. Open for dine-in or take-out lunch and grab-n-go meals.
Neighborhood mom Brandi Romines, Happy as a Lark Cakes, made it to the top three finals of Baking Impossible on Netflix in October. She shared with friends and fans, “Well…it wasn’t the banner I had hoped to hang, but finishing in the top three of that insanely talented group is still a reason to celebrate. I finally stopped crying today long enough to take a picture.

More than anything, thank you to my family, friends, local media, the people of my beloved KENTUCKY. The love and support I have felt is indescribable and I wouldn’t have survived without you all.”
