While ravished by fire the day after Mother’s Day, 1999 the Dinner House has reopened in an improved facility. We have larger banquet facilities and a state of the art kitchen, but have maintained the country charm of the old dinner house. With the enlarged and updated kitchen we have the space and equipment to prepare you favorite Kentucky dishes the way your grandmother made them.
In 1959, at the age of 69, Colonel Harland Sanders and his wife, Claudia, moved from Southeastern Kentucky to Shelbyville. Prior to this, the Colonel had spent many years in Corbin, Kentucky, developing his now world-famous chicken recipe. His move to Shelbyville was prompted by the opening of Interstate 75 which bypassed Corbin and his restaurant. It was however, from this very building that Kentucky Fried Chicken grew into a world-wide organization. Special OffersColonel Harland Sanders is among Louisville's "Hometown Heroes" but the Colonel and Mrs. Sanders are also heroes in Shelbyville, where they settled and created their final culinary achievement — Claudia Sanders Dinner House. The continuing success of the Dinner House is owed to another couple—Tommy and Cherry Settle. Here's a proper introduction.
