We want to let everyone know that after 16 years of owning The Whistle Stop and close to 50 years in the restaurant industry we have decided to retire and move on to the next chapter of our life, spending more time with family and each other. This was a very tough decision, but we know it is time in our life and at our age to hand this over to someone that will keep The Whistle Stop traditions going. The last 16 years here have been great, we have had valued employees and wonderful customers which many we have come to know and love. We want to thank all of our customers and friends who have supported us and The Whistle Stop over the last 45 years, it has meant so much to us!! The Whistle Stop was started by two great people James and Idell Sego in 1975. We now look forward to a third owner keeping The Whistle Stop going and growing. At this time, we will remain closed until we sell the restaurant on March 17 via an online auction. We invite anyone that is interested in owning by going to bidkentucky.com for information.
Thank you again for all your wonderful and much appreciated support! Please continue to visit all of the shops, coffee, and food establishments in Historic Glendale, Ky.
