I know beer is in the name but the food here is so good and so are the cocktails. Be sure to check out what events are going on such as comedy shows fundraisers, live music, etc..

This is my favorite coffee shop in Paducah. The staff are so fun easy to talk with and have great recommendations. I love trying new drinks, but I get an oatmeal every single time I go.
Etcetera Coffeehouse
Another lovely coffee shop with a different vibe. They recently just moved to a larger space and have added food to their menu. They also have a lovely outdoor patio.
Pipers Tea & Coffee

You have to stop in and get some baked bread and cookies from Kirchoff’s!
I also love to get a sandwich as well.
