Hubs met his friend for lunch here last Friday. He enjoyed his chicken sandwich. He brought me an order of shrimp and grits to go. The dish was packaged well, and travelled well. There were ample shrimps in the dish and the shrimps were seasoned well and tasty! Both the shrimps and the grits were exceptional quality. The grits were very creamy and again, seasoned well! The lemon was grilled which is a lovely touch and the scallions/sliced onions offered a touch of freshness and flavor. There was an abundance of grease in the dish which was the only evidence of any chorizo sausage. In accustomed to having andouille sausage in shrimp and grits and usually they are medallions, sliced like coins. Sometimes the sausage is diced and it's always seared. The sausage was absent. Day one I ate the shrimp and day two I cooked some andouille sausage we had, removed the grease from my leftovers, and had the grits with our andouille medallions. The grits were cheesy and creamy and really good and they did taste great with the addition of our sausage. I'm sure Tupelo Honey would have corrected the missing sausage had I been present at lunch. I was pleased with the quality of the ingredients, just disappointed the sausage was missing. read more

Dined here on Sunday afternoon with a party of three. We made reservations in advance and arrived around 2:00 p.m. It was busy and we waited a few minutes for our table to be ready. Service was a bit slow getting started and remained somewhat slow throughout our visit. For starters, we ordered the fried green tomatoes and fried pickles. The fried green tomatoes were a bit firm and difficult to cut, but the fried pickles were enjoyable. For our entrees, we ordered the Chicken & Waffles, Peppercorn Meatloaf, and Sweet & Spicy Fried Chicken. We also ordered a side of sweet potato pancakes. The Peppercorn Meatloaf had quite a bit of spice, even for a spicy food lover like me! The chicken tenders served with the waffles had some spice to them as well. They tasted fine to me, but they were a little too spicy for my friend who ordered them. The Sweet & Spicy Fried Chicken was definitely our fave, 10/10. The crispy Brussels sprouts were a bit dry and underwhelming. I think they would have been much better with some type of glaze or sauce. We waited quite a while for our bill at the end of the meal. The slow service was the main drawback and reason for my rating. Our server was pleasant, but he seemed a little overwhelmed. read more

I don't know if we came on an off day or what. My son picked this restaurant based on good reviews. First, parking in the area is plain weird. The parking spots are angled so you drive past the spot then back in. It'll make sense once you see the layout. First of all we were very impressed by the layout and design of the restaurant. Very nice amount of outdoor seating. My son made reservations, but they were not needed. Restaurant was about 1/2 full. By request we opted for the outdoor patio. We waited a bit until a lady (not our waiter) took our drink order. She was very nice. After a bit, she came back with our coffees. She then offered to take our appetizer order. The waiter finally came out and apologized for taking so long. The biscuits came out and they were very good! Highly recommended. I have to say the chicken and waffles were disappointing. First, when the food was first brought out, one of the staff said they would be right back with more syrup. We never saw this lady again. Our waiter came back after we finished the waffles so it was too late to ask for more syrup by that time. Waffles were good but the chicken had a hard coating that cracked and fell off while cutting. So I had to work at getting a piece of the coating, chicken all in one bite. My son had the spicy version and thought it was just okay. If we had good service, I would just chalk it up the chicken and waffles not being their best dish. But when you sit down at a restaurant and after you sit down for a while and think to yourself 'should I just get up and leave' not a good first impression. If the restaurant was packed, I could understand slow service; but again wasn't that busy. read more

Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar - Chicken and Classic Chicken* & Waffles - New American Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

Came in this weekend for a mid morning lunch and had such a great experience the last time, I wanted to try it again. Well to much dismays, this time was definitely a miss! While the service from our server was good, the food and experience has definitely went in a negative direction. I ordered the sweet potato pancakes and nothing comes with them. While the menu states PANCAKES, you only receive one for $10.95!. Two sausage patties and two scrambled eggs were $13.00 more. I asked the server about this and she could only say that the menu has changed and they took a lot of stuff away. Management came to the table and I asked him about it and all he could say was ok. For $30, this is outrageous for a very plain breakfast. I can say that you got me this time, but you won't get me again!!!! It wasn't just my order but everyone at my table was asking what happened? Even the chicken and waffles were half the portion but cost more. The only option outside of pork is a soy sausage. Really! How many do you sale of those instead of a chicken or turkey sausage? #donotpriceyourselfoutofbusiness!!! read more

Our first time going and in - laws second time! They were the biggest ones to recommend this spot the last time they visited with the most delicious pictures. They try enjoy the area occasionally to make the best of each moment and this was definitely a place for save in the "Favorites" collection! To begin with the atmosphere was inviting and modern. Photo op walls are the best, as well as detail oriented interior design down to plating. Hubby and I shared a half chicken of the honey dusted chicken and it was mesmerizing. Tender, not dry, seasoned just enough with their "bee dust," and sides were great as well. A lot more Brussels sprouts than I expected but was able to share, would probably get the fried okra next time. Biscuits for a cause and preserves I give a 7/10. The fruit was pretty runny, not like a jam, although the butter was great. Texture of the biscuit could be worked on but it wasn't dry or bland, just different which is why trying things is important! Don't know until you find out. Overall, pleasant service and meal after our convention! read more

I visited a friend in Huntsville, and my friend suggested trying Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen. We both have never been to this place, so we didn't have any huge expectations. I was pleasantly surprised at how lovely the decor of this restaurant. It was very modern and chic with great esthetics. That hands down was a plus for me. Moving on to my experience, it was actually very lovely. The server was really nice and was helpful reviewing the menu with my party. The menu was pretty good. It had typical American brunch/breakfast, but they also had a few twist to some of the item. Very tasty. This was a solid pick for brunch. It's an IG worthy place to be, and the food is solid which is a win to me. If I lived here, I could definitely see myself going back. Honestly, a very pleasant first time at this restaurant. read more

This was my first time here and I sat at the bar. The bar staff were very helpful and friendly. They gave great recommendations. The Old Fashioned was very good and I had them change the bourbon to a high-proof rye. They had no objections at all. Since this was my first time, they said I had to try the fried chicken. I had no problem accepting that suggestion and I'm glad I went with it. The chicken was fantastic. It's a bit spicy on its own so be very careful if you get one of the dustings or the Sriracha honey sauce. Ask for it on the side, because it has some bite on the backside. :) The salad was good, but standard. The mashed potatoes, well, they tasted like instant. There was kind of that watery, thin taste. Not like the good ones mom used to make. The gravy made up for the lack of flavor. I may have been better served just eating the gravy. The place has a laidback, easy-going vibe. Everyone seemed laidback and happy. When the staff is like that I take it as a good sign. Finally, the butter pecan, strawberry cheesecake is a great finish, if you can fit it in. If not, get it to go. You won't regret it. read more

I am in Huntsville once a year to attend a convention and meet up with old friends. For the last 3 years, I have had lunch at this establishment. In every case, the facility is clean and welcoming. The staff has always been exceptional and treat you like family. The first time, the food quality and taste were exceptional. It was lunchtime, the place was crowded but our table of 8 was served quickly. The next time, a later lunch and the food was not exceptional, but good. Most of the fried foods were starting to dry out since they had beed cooked for a while. This being the South, lost of fried food to pick from. Now last week was my most recent visit and it was an even later lunch. Maybe 2:30 to 3. In fact we joked that we were trying to miss the lunch crowd and get there before the "old" people arrived. Since I am 74, that is the joke. Anyway, food was a little disappointing. Fried chicken was dry and the other items had suffered from hanging around. I understand that to support such a large menu, some things need to be pre-cooked but the management should do a little better job of planning, be okay with a little waste and let the customer that it will be a little longer for fresh food at off hours. I will go back to this restaurant, but now fully aware of the times to visit. read more

I hadn't been back for a while and we came for Easter Sunday. Note that they do not serve alcohol before 10am. Our group wanted bloody Mary's but had to wait. We all ordered coffee and it took a while for that to come out, and we struggled to get refills. I ordered the farmhouse breakfast platter and they messed up a bunch of my order. I asked for a biscuit, they gave me toast. I asked for grits and they gave me Potatoes. They did fix the issue quickly. I am also still annoyed that you pay for their signature biscuits when that used to be part of the experience to sit down and get the biscuits. read more

I visited this restaurant for dinner just before the sun went down. I wasn't sure what to expect but I found out the menu featured a lot of breakfast options. I had the shrimp and grits and they were good. The blueberry lemonade was amazing. Too bad there are no free refills for the lemonade. We had no problems with our server or service. The restaurant was clean and modern. The only issue I had was the lighting was very dim with no on table lighting. Overhead lighting was spread which made it difficult to read the menu at night. read more

Wow, this was delicious and well priced. Located right next to the Orion they are known for brunch and their fried chicken. We started off with their Mountain blueberry margarita and Tupelo honey margarita. Both were unique and refreshing in their own way. The Tupelo honey was a classic and just delicious overall. The blueberry margarita was more sour than I expected but still good. Next we ordered some biscuits as they are well known for them. My only complaint is they are super crumbly and it makes it a bit difficult to spread with butter and the blueberry compote they give you. My boyfriend ordered their Famous honey dusted chicken and Rosemary & Parmesan Crispy Potatoes. The potatoes were absolutely amazing and I love anything done with rosemary just delicious. His chicken was crisp well seasoned and extremely tender. I ordered the Asheville Hot Chicken & Ranch Melt with a side salad. The sandwich itself was delicious. Well toasted bread, delicious chicken, perfectly melted cheese, and I opted for the ranch on the side in case I did not eat the entire sandwich which I did not lol. The side salad was good except for the cucumbers. I've noticed down in this area all the cucumbers are extremely bitter and not flavorful. Service was fantastic and shared some background about the Huntsville area with us that I really enjoyed. The inside was very modern with a lot of greenery. read more

Slap your momma good! I have NEVER had a more delicious meal, bar none. Came in for dinner and had no clue of what experience I was about to have. The place was clean, great vibe and music playing. Put me right at ease. Mateo was the best. I decided on the chicken tenders, sprouts and a side salad. When that tender hit my mouth, I was in heaven! Words can't describe. I kept slapping the tabletop. Hahaha Prices are extremely reasonable, and staff was just wonderful. Heading back tonight as I only have one more night here in town. Can't recommend enough to get your butt in here and enjoy the experience and food. read more

Tupelo Honey Cafe On Saturday, June 30, my husband and I visited Tupelo Honey Café in Huntsville, Alabama. This was our second horrible experience there. The first we chopped up to the location being new. We have had great experiences at other locations outside Alabama. We started our order with an appetizer. After two hours, we still did not have our food and were told the staff forgot to put the order in. At that time, we expressed we wanted to cancel the order. The restaurant declined to make any accommodation or comp the appetizers. We definitely will not be returning to the Huntsville locations. read more

We ate here and sat outside after a trip to the space and rocket center and we were STARVING. Usually when I'm hungry, even mediocre food is great. Well this time, the mediocre food was very very mediocre. We got the sweet and spicy chicken sandwich and it looked so pretty but the chicken was Saharan. So dry. The tomato was mushy and it was all almost absent of flavor. The kids grilled cheese was beautiful but also no flavor. The chicken and waffles meal was also pretty but just very blah. The fries were overly salted. They weren't busy at all but the server was rude- enough so that even my kids noticed. Maybe she was having a bad day and the servers are normally great, but that was not our experience.. We kept having to ask for ketchup and sauce because everything was just devoid of flavor or way too salty, so maybe this was irritating? But in any case, we will not be back. Which I hate because the Tupelo Honey in Chattanooga is my favorite!- I even bought a cookbook from there! I hope this restaurant makes some changes. The area is beautiful! read more

I sat at the bar and Scott was my server/bartender. He helped me decide on my meal. I ordered the honey chiracha chicken with collard greens. The chicken was super tasty with just a hint of spice. The collards were equally delicious and cooked to perfection. I had the Tupelo honey margarita for happy hour and it was amazing. Very lovely taste. I also had the biscuits with Tupelo honey and blueberry jam. I licked my fingers quite a bit behind this meal. For dessert I had a mini banana pudding and I took a pecan chocolate pie to go. Both were superb. The restaurant was not busy as I arrived before the rush, which was nice for me. There was music playing softly and the hun of other patrons talking spread thru the restaurant. Overall it has a very chill vibe and some lip smacking food. I'd love to dine here again. read more

I ordered tomato soup and a side salad plus pecan pie to go on the YELP app. All were delicious, but something went wrong and my order was cancelled just as I was about to pick it up. I had to reorder and charge it again. No problems the 2nd time. I noticed they have much to offer for breakfast and may try that next. No menus available to take home. Note: Not much available parking especially since one street next to the front door is blocked off. You may need to park next door in a parking garage (which is next to a dog park!). read more

Great service, incredibly kind people and we sat relatively quick. Great ambiance and light for brunch/ lunch. I would suggest the breakfast/ brunch foos personally. This restaurant does fried chicken very well! I loved the chicken and waffles. The waffles were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The chicken ranch melt was also pretty good. My mom enjoyed her shrimp and grits and my sister loved the sweet potato pancake. The collards lacked luster and the tomato soup was average. My biggest deterrent was the chicken salad sandwich. I've had my fair share of chicken salads, and I like them in a multitude of ways. At this chicken salad was oddly sweet. It smelled like a Krispy Kreme doughnut. This is personally not my thing, but if you enjoy a sweet chicken salad, you may want to try this sandwich. It had a good amount of meat and was well dressed. read more

Excellent service; wonderful ambiance; amazing food presentation. Friendly staff. Great work Tupelo Honey!

We went there for Sunday breakfast. The wait staff was prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. We ordered the Plantation Breakfast. If you want to have Mimosos to drink you need to arrive after 10 am. We started with the fresh hot "biscuits for a cause" and they came out with a small container of butter and blackberry jam. They were fresh, hot and delicious. The breakfast came quickly and was freshly made and looked very appetizing. The eggs were cooked perfectly, our orders came with "crispy potatoes" and bacon along with TX Toast. Everything was well prepared and was delicious. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu items. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

As a small southern chain started in Asheville, NC, it's great to see this locally-sourced, made from scratch restaurant expand to Huntsville. Like any new restaurant, it was exceptionally busy when we visited to Sunday brunch, and although we were lucky enough to score a reservation, I heard the hostess say the wait was over 2 hours. We were seated immediately. Service was a but slow, but this was more than to be expected since they were pretty slammed, so be patient. There is ample seating indoors and outdoors with booths, high tops, and low tops. We started off with Bloody Mary's (and a Bloody Maria) to awaken our senses. I like a good spicy one, so I was impressed by the level of spice and the freshness of the Bloody Mary mix. Bloody Maria was very tequila forward (so, of course, no complaints here!). The food: the spicy chicken and waffle was a standout. They are known fir their fried chicken, and you get to choose whether u want dark meat (two thighs) or white meat (2 breasts). The steak and eggs was a bit of a letdown since the hash that accompanies it was just luke warm and the steak wasn't the most tender--even at medium rare. Later, I switched to an expresso martini which was so sweet I had to send it back, which they happily remade for me. I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu! read more
