While it seems that every day our lives get more and more
hectic and we are forced to move at a feverish pace, sometimes eating drive
thru fast food meals on our way to work, it is nice to know that there are
still places where we can sit, relax, and have a home cooked meal within
driving distance. If you have not found such a place, allow me to introduce you
to Lambert’s Diner.

Lambert’s Diner is located
just 10 miles southeast of Owensboro on highway
231 in Pleasant Ridge, KY. Lambert’s Diner was opened less than two
months ago at the urge of the people of Ohio County
toward its owner, Mike Lambert. It seems that the people of Pleasant Ridge were
in need of a place to meet, greet, and just relax in a home-like atmosphere while
still being able to eat great home cooked made from scratch meals in the
process. As soon as he had the support of his masterful cook, Carol, Mike did
just what they urged him to do. In the past four weeks, the diner has had a
steady stream of business and has been sending once hungry people home,
extremely full.
Open daily for breakfast from
5 to 10 a.m., Lambert’s serves up mouthwatering traditional home cooked items
for prices even cheaper than most fast food restaurants. The breakfast special at Lambert’s Diner
includes two eggs, bacon or sausage, potatoes, toast or 1 biscuit and gravy for
less than $4.00. Other breakfast items can be ordered a la carte and include
pancakes, grits, oatmeal, and omelets.
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.,
Lambert’s Diner serves up a very diverse lunch menu. Lunch items include
sandwiches such as hamburgers, ham and cheese, egg sandwiches, Manhattan
When you have a menu stocked
full of flavorful items everyone enjoys, a cook that everyone talks about, and
people asking for the diner to be opened, it seems that Lambert’s Diner is
looking to be a staple in Ohio
County for a long time to
come. sandwiches, tuna, and patty melts.
Lambert’s Diner also serves lunch specials which include meat, two vegetables,
and a choice of roll or corn bread. I highly recommend stopping by on Tuesday
to try the fried chicken special.
