Tupelo Honey is a revival of Southern Comfort Food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home. We craft brunches, lunches and suppers that bring family and friends around the table and allow for conversations and cocktails to linger longer than usual. Always scratch-made, always responsibly-sourced, and always Southern.

    Food and service is okay for the price point / biggest issue is the inability to honor an actual reservation. Our reservation was for 1pm. We checked in at 12:45 and was not seated until almost 1:25 or 1:30 - watched several “waitlist” parties be seated ahead of us - poor choice in how to treat your parties with actual reservations

    Our server was excellent. Food was good but not as good as we remembered and the biscuits were small compared to previous. Overall, reliably good and we’ll probably be back.

    Shrimp and Grits were so yummy and flavorful! My husband and daughter had two different types of chicken and waffles which were very good and very large portions! We will be back!

    Always tasty and reliable. Chicken and waffles are great and fried green tomatoes for a breakfast appetizer can’t be beat.

    Always fun ambience and good food. Fried pickles were so salty none of us could eat them. I’m sure if we brought it up they would have accommodated us somehow but wasn’t worth mentioning. Overall great experience
