Gold Rush Cafe
About Us
We're Gold Rush Cafe' and we've been a restaurant and catering service here in Paducah, KY, since 1999. We're a neighborhood eatery loved by both locals and tourists we’ve been voted multiple times as having the best breakfast in Paducah, known for our unique dishes like bread pudding waffles, scotch eggs, and exclusive mash-up dishes highlighting local restaurants. We started this business when the opportunity arose to purchase the restaurant from the previous owner at a great deal. We have a love of food, culinary training, and a drive to provide the best dining experience possible for each and every guest. We're looking forward to growing our business to continue to serve Paducah and the surrounding areas. We'd like to personally invite you to stop in today for a patron favorite Forty-niner mac and cheese, scrumptious breakfast sandwiches, classic Monte Cristos, weekly off-menu specials, and so much more! We are an equal opportunity employer and we're currently filling positions for staff who would love to work in a fun and positive environment.

Great service, large portions and interesting decor in downtown Paducah. Gravy on my biscuit and gravy was barely warm, but the meal was otherwise good.

had this to say:
Had the big dalton and there wasn't a single thing on my plate that didn't blow me away. Great and fast service despite being short-staffed. The home fries and biscuit and gravy were the standouts for me, but all of it was perfect. Will 100% be back!
