Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar

As a southern girlie, their food offering is definitely headed in the right direction. The grits were fab, absolutely recommend. I also really loved the fried okra — it was crispy in the way fried okra should be. The chicken tenders were good, but I do not know that they represent true southern fried chicken (my credentials are my family is from alabama, i’ve lived in arkansas and texas.) The sauce options were creative and plentiful. The banana pudding was pretty good too. Would eat here again but it’s not anything I would insist a visitor should visit while in town (I’m visiting lol)

My husband and I ate here yesterday morning and we had a great experience! We are Denver locals and have only been here one other time and we definitely noticed an increase in quality of food and service. We both ordered drinks, 2 appetizers and 2 entrees and it was all under $100 Our server Bailey was great and we will definitely be back again soon!

I ordered takeout from Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar last night, and it was an absolute revelation. Everything – and I mean *everything* – was delicious. We got the chicken finger family sampler, shrimp and grits, and pecan pie, along with fried okra, fried pickles, Brussels sprouts, and mac & cheese. As someone from Alabama, I can tell you this food genuinely brought back childhood memories. The flavors were spot-on authentic. The chicken fingers were perfectly Southern-fried with that ideal crispy coating and juicy interior. The shrimp and grits couldn’t have been more authentic – creamy, perfectly seasoned grits with beautifully cooked shrimp. Every side dish held its own, from the tangy crunch of the fried pickles to the comforting richness of the mac & cheese. What I especially appreciate is the restaurant’s namesake itself. For those unfamiliar, Tupelo honey comes from the white Ogeechee Tupelo trees that grow in the swamps of the Deep South, primarily in northwest Florida and southern Georgia. This rare, prized honey – which never crystallizes – has been treasured in Southern cuisine for generations. It’s a beautiful touch that the restaurant honors this connection, bringing a piece of authentic Southern heritage to Denver. Most people here probably don’t realize the significance, but it shows the care and authenticity behind everything Tupelo Honey does. I picked up our order rather than dining in (I’m not huge on venturing into the city, but I do love trying new food!). The takeout was perfectly packaged and the food traveled beautifully. If you’re craving real Southern cooking in Denver, this is your place. Highly recommended.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Chicken done right and a large menu of items to choose from. Everything is pretty much delicolious. Good drinks selection to pair with too. Service is very excellent. I will definitely go back if ever in Denver again.

First time to this denver location. Did not disappoint. Stand out service & food! We were there for brunch: 5/5 shrimp & grits - plenty amount of shrimp. Good creole flavors, esp with the lemon squeezed over. Not sure i can resist from ordering this dish next time… loved it 5/5 biscuits for a cause - id say taste is a 4.5 (still fluffy & yummy, but it is thick), but the price/amount of food/& cause bring it easily to a 5. Lemonade & iced mocha were delicious This is some of the best food ive had in denver so far.

Lovely place!! Staff were friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious!! I really wanted to try the fried chicken but opted for the shrimp n’ grits and it did not disappoint!! Excellent flavor! The iced vanilla cold brew w blueberry cold foam was good.

The service was rocky at first, I was overlooked 4 different times before being told someone would help you soon. After that the waitress was great and the food was delicious, especially the roasted potatoes. The chicken on the pancakes is not so great, but the eggs made up for it. Overall, it was a decent experience that will leave you feeling satisfied.
