Tupelo Honey Cafe
Appalachian flavors (l,d; $$)
Tupelo Honey Cafe dishes up southern food which is creative and homemade with small plates which are large enough to share. Happy hour drink specials are offered Monday through Thursday too.
Southern Tastes
Think about cozy comforting food such as mac and cheese or fried okra with meatloaf and mashed potatoes. The southern style brunch might feature big bacon items, sweet potato pancakes or fried chicken and biscuits and certainly a big bowl of grits with many choices.
Watch for new menu items changing frequently with the seasons.
Gluten free items are offered, and the kids’ menu is usually acceptable even to the picky eater.
Outdoor dining is comfortable during many seasons, and the indoor dining areas and bar are quite spacious for large groups.
Other restaurants in this North Carolina-based regional chain often showcase varying menus, so don’t expect that all are exactly the same.
