Windows on the Water is the aptly named restaurant of Lake Barkley State Resort Park. The name conjures up an evocative picture that requires no imagination. Located at 3500 State Park Road, Cadiz, Kentucky, Windows on the Water offers a dining experience that is both beautiful and memorable.
The mission of Kentucky State Parks is to protect and preserve the natural beauty of Kentucky. Unlike many functional amenities at Land Between the Lakes, Windows on the Water is designed to be completely sympathetic to its surroundings. The restaurant is made from post and beams, with high ceilings and, as the name suggests, three and a half acres of glass.
At Windows on the Water, you can relish magnificent views across Lake Barkley from anywhere in the restaurant while onlookers enjoy a reflection of the view behind them. Not only is it a superb location, but Windows on the Water also has a reputation for the best home cooking in West Kentucky.
Windows on the Water is a full-service, 331-seat restaurant where Chef Hattie serves up good old country cooking. You can choose from typical menu items like fried chicken, meatloaf, catfish, mashed potatoes, and hush puppies. One of the house’s real treats is the Kentucky Hot Brown, an open sandwich topped with baked ham, roasted turkey, mornay sauce, tomato, bacon, and cheddar cheese, toasted until the cheese is bubbly.
As a supporter of the Kentucky Proud program, Windows on the Water uses locally grown meats and produce. You’ll enjoy fine food with friendly service in surroundings that are decorated according to the season, while watching boats and parades of birds.
