Tupelo Honey is a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home. Steps from historic Denver Union Station, 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-soured, and always Southern.

Reservations are strongly recommended, and we will accommodate walk-ins where possible. All guests with pets must be sat outside. Our Patio is north-facing and weather dependent, please call the restaurant ahead of time to inquire whether the patio is open or not.

There were seven of us including a 3-year old. Our server was great with the little one, and also very attentive to the rest of us.

We go there a lot because it’s convenient and like the food but 100% of the time the service is TERRIBLE!! Wait 10-20 minutes to order. Almost always something missing or incorrect in order and don’t see a wait persone again for 30 minutes. Every one is very nice but honestly it’s a mystery to me how the service can be so consistently bad. I want to love it but just baffled.

Most of the food was great (except the biscuits, which were dry and not tasty, much smaller than they used to be). Service was OK, though no one came back to see if we wanted more drinks until we asked. Took a while to place our order. However, the biggest problem was, in a very empty restaurant, a very very very loud woman was FaceTiming her friend for 45 minutes, 6 feet from us in a virtually empty restaurant. 45 minutes. They were super loud, volume on her phone was at turned all the way up. And they love using the word f*ck a lot, which was great with my 92-year-old mother. I had to go over and say, "Could you stop saying f*ck a lot? That's my mom." I shouldn't have have to do that. The only other guy in the restaurant at this point was on the other side of a half-wall and videotaped her. I hope it's posted on some other platform. Staff should not allow this to happen.

Good place to go for some tasty comfort food. We really enjoyed the crispy brussel sprout appetizer. The fried chicken was very good and the gravy for the chicken dinner was amazing. Good service, good drink menu.
