about us

Welcome to The Dock: A river Cafe!

Nestled on the banks of the Kentucky River, we offer a unique dining experience that celebrates our local bounty and natural surroundings.

Our Story

Founded in 2024 by Vanessa Noble, this business grew from a passion for fresh, sustainable cuisine and a deep appreciation for our river valley's rich agricultural heritage. We envisioned a place where guests could savor exceptional meals while enjoying breathtaking views of the water.

Farm to Table Philosophy

At The Dock, we believe in the power of locally sourced ingredients. We work closely with local farmers, butchers, artisans to bring you the freshest seasonal produce, ethically raised meats, and artisanal products. This commitment not only ensures the highest quality dishes but also supports our local economy and reduces our environmental impact.

Community Commitment

We're proud to be part of the Frankfort community. The Dock regularly hosts events that celebrate local food culture, and we're dedicated to sustainable practices that help preserve our beautiful riverfront for future generations.

Join us down at The Dock for an unforgettable meal that connects you to the heart of our region and natural beauty.
