Home Cookin’ Cafe opens in Louisville

Taste of the week: New breakfast option

By John Lehndorff - July 31, 2024

Louisville’s recently opened Home Cookin’ Cafe, 328 McCaslin Blvd., is one of those rare independent destinations that truly understands breakfast food and service. The family owners have years of experience at the cafe’s original Arvada location.

The menu includes omelets, benedicts, plate-sized pancakes and an unusually wide variety of protein options like burgers, steak, chicken-fried steak, Italian sausage and my choice: crispy corned beef hash and eggs with the cafe’s unique mix of tater tots and roasted spuds.

The location came with a bar you can belly up to for biscuits and gravy or a taco salad with a beer. I’ll be going back for the owner’s homemade pie and the breakfast pizza: Crust topped with sausage gravy eggs, meat, veggies and oven-melted cheeses.

Words to Chew On: Getting beet 

“Beet is the most intense of vegetables. The radish, admittedly,
is more feverish, but the fire of the radish is a cold fire; the fire
of discontent, not of passion. Beets are deadly serious.”
