Root-A-Bakers Restaurant in Morehead Kentucky

While in Morehead, several people told us we had to have lunch at Root-A-Bakers.

We went by this comfy little restaurant and absolutely loved it.  We were welcomed at the door.  Our orders were placed, and we were asked if it was our first time there.  We would find out later that, since it was, we got a FREE sugar cookie!

We ordered and then found a seat.  We noticed a Bible on each table.  Nice beach inspired art was on the walls.  The decor at Root-Bakers-Bakers reminded me of some of the nice little cafes I have been to in New England, and around Lake Michigan.  Though the restaurant is not near water, I had that calm feeling I might have near a pond or lake in a small town.

They actually brought out a couple of other extras before our meal, including a nice cheddar biscuit!

We both had potato soup and sandwiches.  Check out the photos.  The meal was tasty and filling.  The soup was creamy and the sandwich was just nice and flavorful.  Everything had a unique taste.

They sell their bags of sugar cookies for $15 for a dozen.  We were told that they go through a lot of these each day.  In fact, my pal Jimmy grabbed a bag, knowing he would need some even before we received our free "first visit" ones.

Also, this is a nice, clean place.  We saw staff wipe tables down pretty immediately and they seemed to keep on top of things.  You can tell that Root-A-Bakers cares about their reputation, and they care about making a good product.

I think sandwich side and drink came out to around $15...  so, I feel like this is a nice value too.

Morehead really has something special in Root-A-Bakers.  It gets my highest recommendation.
