Listen, Tupelo Honey isn’t just a spot, it’s a staple. Since 2000, this Asheville gem has been dishing out Southern comfort food that’s as real as the Carolina mountains it’s inspired by. From breakfast to dinner, every bite is made from scratch with love. They’ve even got a lounge now, right next to the original, where you can sip on craft cocktails, specialty beers, and dive into that famous honey-dusted fried chicken. If you're in Asheville, you’re gonna want to make your way to 12 College Street. Trust me on this.
