Don't judge a restaurant by its cover. The look of the front of this Louisville restaurant is very deceiving. Located in a shopping center at the corner of New LaGrange Road and Whipps Mill Road, The Corner Café  is perhaps one of the best kept dining secrets in town, and one of the reasons Louisville is such a fabulous place to live.

Corner Café of Louisville has been run by the same family, the Fredericks, for nineteen years. The family creates and maintains a casual atmosphere with a fresh and regularly changing menu. They are known for their Italian, seafood, Cajun, and pizza menus.

The menu at Corner Café offers a variety of flavors to satisfy any palate. Highlights include:

•·         Blackened tenderloin

•·         Lump crab meat-encrusted Sea Bass

•·         Andouille stuffed chicken

•·         Garlic basil chicken pizza

•·         Brie & pecan salad

•·         Famous Nuclear sub

•·         Cajun seafood alfredo

•·         Shrimp & grits

•·         Irish pork

Several of these menu items have won the Taste of Derby competition. But the entrees aren't the only reason to visit the café. There is also an excellent selection of desserts that appeal to chocolate lovers, nut lovers, and cream lovers. Customers are welcomed to enjoy dinner and dessert with a glass of wine, imported beer, or a cocktail.

The menu at Corner Café even caters to vegetarian guests.

This well-kept Louisville secret is a great location to host small receptions of 30 to 60 people for a variety of occasions. The experienced staff knows how to make any event a success.

And what would a Louisville restaurant be without artwork adorning its walls? Corner Café proudly supports local artists through its décor.

It's often tough to find that perfect place to call home, a house near enough restaurants, entertainment, groceries and gas to be convenient, yet far enough from them to allow for the feeling of privacy and nature. In Louisville, these homes are often found in Lyndon.

Lyndon truly borders every major interstate in Louisville, making travel to any destination in the city an easy trip of about ten minutes or fewer. With fast access to I-71, I-64, and the Watterson Expressway,  commuters find their commutes less frustrating and time consuming. Five minutes south of Lyndon are the two best malls in Louisville, Oxmoor Mall and St. Matthews Mall, plus an array of restaurants to satisfy any palate. To the east, Hurstbourne Lane, another thoroughfare of entertainment and dining.

A map's view of Lyndon reveals its strong point, as it serves as a bridge between the ever-popular St. Matthews area and the growing eastern side of Jefferson County. Lyndon offers quick and easy access to both of these points, with The Summit  shopping center/outdoor mall, Cinemark Tinseltown Movie Theatres, Springhurst Shopping Center, and a variety of restaurants to the northeast. Properties here have the vantage point of benefitting from strong property values on both borders.

Lyndon offers its residents many options. It consists of everything from small homes built in the 1950s to larger and newer homes ranging in price up to $300K. Its St. Matthews, Hurstbourne, and Anchorage borders only serve to increase its appeal.

Despite its great borders, Lyndon does have a few niches of its own. The YMCA recently built a new water park just off Mill Brook Road.  There are also a few amazing little restaurants off New LaGrange Road, including The Corner Café.

Truly a family community, Lyndon offers a wonderful place for Louisville  residents to live. For more information on this or other Louisville area neighborhoods, please contact The Vince Carter Team.
