    Loved their Country style fried chicken & waffles that came with delicious gravy and two eggs! They also offer spicy Nashville or a classic version as an option. Our only complaint was that the restaurant wasn’t busy but the service was still awfully slow.

    Mimosas were great! We tried one of each and hands down the blueberry is the best! Food was very good but not quite out of this world but very good. Only reason this did not get 5 stars was because my bone in fried chicken was a bit on the colder side and it's their signature item you'd expect just a little more thought into it. Our sides were also on on colder side I'm sure they would be great nice and hot! Would suggest getting a reservation to avoid a long wait!

    They were able to squeeze our large party in on a busy Saturday without issue. This place was packed, and for good reason. Service was excellent and the food was spectacular. Highly recommend the biscuits and any of their chicken and waffle options. The salad was delicious!

    CJ was the best server we have had in years. She was able to talk to the manager to get us the hot sauce we fell in love with. The drinks are delicious. The food was hot and fresh. High recommended!!!!

    My favorite place for brunch in Denver! The staff was super friendly and very helpful in helping us with the menu. First we ordered a few drinks and loved the Southern Spritz. Then we got their fresh baked biscuits and blueberry jam. We loved those warm biscuits with the sweet jam. In the main course, we got their fried chicken, fried green tomato sandwich with a bunch of the farm fresh sides. Everything we ordered was delicious and we enjoyed dining at Tupelo Honey! MUST GO WHEN IN DENVER!!

    My friend and I went here randomly for dinner while by Union Station one night, and they did not disappoint! The food was delicious, the drinks were strong, and the atmosphere was chill. I highly recommend the Mac & Cheese, collard greens, and the meatloaf. I also really like their decorations in there! I will definitely be returning.

    I took my parents here for Easter Brunch. They were super excited to try it. They live out of town and had never been. The service was great. Very friendly and attentive. The food is as good as the pictures look. Very fresh. I don’t think there’s a bad thing on the menu. You have to order the biscuits. Absolutely delicious. The fried chicken is also a must. I was not disappointed. The restaurant is charming and cute. Very IG worthy. I would highly recommend coming here for any event.

    My party and I were in town on business and we heard that Tupelo Honey was a great place to try for any visitor. It was our number 1 spot to try. So our expectations were pretty high. The restaurant was very pretty. However being Mississippi southern belles ourselves, we didn’t really get the southern vibe. Out of the 5 of us, 2 people enjoyed their drinks 3 did not. And 3 of us enjoyed our food, and two did not. One thing I noticed was i think Tupelo Honey thinks southerners LOVE grits cause baby it came with everything: roast, fried green tomatoes… you name it! The best things we had was the pork chop and the sweet and honey chicken & waffles. However, the roast and the “famous” chicken were let downs. Also we ordered all three desserts but they were too sweet and seemed generic. We also ordered fried pickles but it seemed more like air fried cucumbers. It was as if we kept ordering items to remind us of home, but we were in fact, in Wisconsin. The food was “southern” but not from grandma’s kitchen. They did not “put their foot in it”. I think Tupelo Honey sells more of a variation of southern food but it’s definitely not from the south. I know this review may seem negative but we did have a good time. It was a good experience but we probably won’t return.

    A spacious waffle and chicken place by Union station. The staff is friendly. The space is clean and spacious with outdoor seating. The loaded cracklins dish was crispy delicious but salty. The various chicken and waffle dishes we had were delicious.

    Lunch was amazing. The servers were warm, welcoming and knowledgeable of their dishes and willing to give samples of sauces to ensure customer satisfaction. I highly recommend this place. Also they have a table with a dedicated tap so if your party is big enough and can agree on a drink of choice I recommend letting them know so that you can experience a private tapped table. The sizes of servings are plentiful so bring your appetite or a friend.

    Came here for dinner and it was so good! The decor is beautiful, full of light, and comfortable. The service was great as well. We had happy hour appetizer portions of: fried green tomatoes and loaded cracklings - both delicious 5/5 For entrees we had the sweet and spicy chicken sandwich with Mac and cheese on the side and their fried chicken - again 5/5 So stuffed couldn’t think about dessert but will try next time. Def recommend giving this place a try a ton of beer options as well as cocktails.

    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 restaurant is very accommodating!! we have a big family (9 in total) and we were able to make a reservation very easily and were treated amazingly. the lavender lemonade is delicious, but tart! a couple of dishes we had were the chicken and waffles, the shrimp and grits, the mac and cheese chicken and waffles and some of the blueberry waffles. everything was delicious! we had never heard of this restaurant and we were very happy with our experience. our drinks were never empty and we hardly ever had to ask for refills.

    Went downtown Denver to check out the scene. We decided to eat an early dinner at Tupelo Honey. It was kind of busy even after lunch hours. Place was fresh and clean with a southern accent atmosphere. The menu said it all, southern/creole dishes. We were excited to try something new. They had shrimp, brisket, meatloaf and more on the menu. Plus, grits, cob, collard greens and more side dishes. The staff recommended the fried chicken since it was our first time their. We first ordered a fried pickles appetizer. Then my wife ordered the fried chicken plate and I, too, ordered the fried chicken, but with a spicy Sriracha sauce. Incredible. The sauce is spicy hot for first-timers, just to be clear. The food came out hot and fresh. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable on the menu. Great atmosphere. We would return again.

    We enjoyed the biscuits with honey and jam, as well as original fried chicken breasts with waffles. The food portions were very filling, and I left an entire waffle unfinished it felt like so much food! The service was excellent and it wasn't too crowded on a Sunday evening. We are not used to southern style food, but we had a great meal.

    So this place was a real blessing. Our party forgot it was Mothers Day and thought we could walk into a place and get good breakfast at ease… Tulip Honey in Denver sure did make us feel like it was. They were 100% booked but found a way to sit all 3 of us with enough time to eat our food! Thank you so much for saving 3 men on Mother’s Day, who were far from home and mom, but made sure we left on a full stomach. Cheers

    It is a cozy place! I really enjoyed the atmosphere. It is a good place to hang out with folks. The service was awesome! They were kind and well knowledgeable to make a recommendation. I ordered the chicken and waffle, and I love it! It was a good combination! Recommend this store!

    We came here before an event at Ball arena and it was in walking distance. Our server Cecelia was very friendly and attentive. All the food was so good. I got the pork with brussel sprouts and grits. My husband had the meatloaf with fries and green beans. We also had the fried pickles before our meal and the pecan pie for dessert. Nothing disappointed. We will definitely be back.

    We were just in the area for the Nuggets game that night . And we were looking for a place where we can have good food. We searched online and this restaurant attracted us due to its good reviews. And we were so glad as the food was so so delicious and the price is not too high . Waitress and waiters are so friendly and the meal was served quick! We dine in twice in this restaurant as we can’t get over of how good their appetizers and everything We have ordered.

    My boyfriend and I went here for our anniversary this past weekend. We were running a little late due to traffic from Ball arena and the hosts were super accommodating and understanding. The food was delicious. We got a biscuit and the pimento cheese dip as appetizers. I also highly recommend the chicken. Would definitely come back here
