"The brown butter pecan pie topped with dark chocolate sauce makes for a perfect dessert at this Southern restaurant in the Union Station neighborhood. The other pie option is the chocolate peanut butter pie, which consists of chocolate ganache, salted pretzel crumbles, and whipped cream." - Camila Navarrette, Lucy Beaugard, Paul Albani-Burgio

"For those looking for something more on the tart side, this Southern food locale in Denver offers up its sour take on this frosty beverage. The Cherry Bomb frosé comes complete with Leopold’s cherry liqueur, lime, refreshing mint, and, of course, a cherry on top. Snag one for $5 Monday through Thursday." - Nisa Sedaghat

Came in on a Thursday lunch time trying to get a quick lunch. The food was great and the atmosphere was nice with a lot of nice crowds. The chip n dip chicken tenders were so crunchy on the outside and juicy inside. The sriracha honey fried chicken and waffle was good too, however the sauce does make the chicken soggy so probably recommend the original flavor if you like the chicken nice and crunchy. Our server didn't check in with us tho...At the end had to ask the host to see if he could grab our check.. He took forever to get our check causing us another hours charge for our parking. 😔 oh yes, Parking is hard here.

The fried pickles are really really greasy and have more of a cucumber taste. The fries are really good, but the chicken sandwich wasn’t great- hardly average at best. Again, the pickles on the sandwich tasted like cucumbers, which was not appetizing. Almost $1.00 for each small cup of dipping ranch. The smothered chicken was not smothered at all, as you can see from the picture. Lots of breading and not much meat. The mac and cheese had no flavor to it. This place wouldn’t survive in the south if they were a “southern restaurant.” We aren’t going to come back. Cherry on top was the soap being completely out in the bathroom so I got to walk out with greasy hands. Yuck.

I was told on a tour in Denver that Denver is a brunch town. I felt like Tupelo Honey lives up to the reputation. The food made from scratch was absolutely delicious. The menu offers mimosas and morning cocktails with some bloody Mary options. I loved the Asheville spicy chicken and waffles. Almost an open face spicy chicken sandwich with a Mac n cheese twist. Would eat here again

We were there during Denver's Restaurant Week so they were pretty busy. Our server was amazing! We had Fried Green Tomatoes and the Fried Pickles for appetizer. The Fried Tomatoes were so delicious and a delicacy around these parts, lol. For dinner we had the Dry Rub Fried Chicken and Shrimp and Grits. My only suggestion on the Chicken would be a side of sauce, tasty nonetheless.

Food was tasty and fresh. I had the smothered chicken. And my server was really nice. It’s a really laid back atmosphere with decent music. I would return and try other items that looked just as good. Knocked off one star for not being offered a refill on my drink. Need a refill when you eat biscuits 🤷🏽‍♀️

I think this is a super fun place to take a date as long as you aren’t a fan of southern food. I took a birthday group of 3 and while most of the food was tasty, I had the weirdest meatloaf of my life. To start, it was a meatball. Secondly, you could tell the meat was puréed because the texture was that of wet dog food. Hoping to salvage the evening, I ordered a banana pudding to share with the table and we were all shocked by the soupy consistency of the pudding and the fact that there were no wafers in the pudding but just a light dusting over the top. At least our server was super sweet and great with the water refills. I recommend anything fried if you plan to take a chance.

This was the cutest place! The theme was great and provided a wonderful atmosphere for our Saturday brunch. The place was busy, but we didn't wait long to be seated at all. The service was fast and friendly! The food was absolutely delicious. We found this place because we were in the mood for chicken and waffles, and this place absolutely delivered! We also got an order of the shrimp and grits, which was equally delicious.

Came on a Saturday for brunch and was disappointed. This was not a great value with a mediocre entree and water costing me $35. I was really disappointed with my food, it was swimming in grease, lacked flavor, and was a really small portion size. Maybe half a cup of grits and 5 shrimp. Even though it looks appetizing in the photo the portion size was skimpy, I would have expected a dish like this to be on a happy hour menu for $12 or less. I realized while eating they had spread it out paper thin in the dish to look like it was more food than it actually was. They could not accommodate customizations and even though online menus had brunch my server told me they did not have a brunch menu, which was the reason I came, so big bummer there. I ran out of water and never got refilled and waited a very long time for my check. I would not recommend given my experience.
