With the lack of excitement in Jackson, you tend to spend a lot of time hanging out at your or your…read morefriends' houses. And there tends to be alcohol. But where to buy that alcohol can be an important question. I find that the Forked Vine is one of the better liquor stores in town. For one, I don't feel that I am going to get mugged outside (which you can't say for some of the other places in town) and it also has the best selection in town. I tend to be a beer drinker and they do have a pretty good selection of big beers (over 6% alcohol) and are pretty knowledgeable about the selection they have in stock. They also have decent prices on all of their selections. They probably aren't the cheapest on everything but I can say that if you are buying whiskey or vodka and aren't buying handles, they either match or beat everyone else in town on price. The staff is helpful in finding what you want, but aren't pushy or overly helpful so if you want to spend time just browsing, you can be comfortable doing that. Also, they put extra boxes out in front in a small fenced off area and this can come in handy if you need moving boxes. If you ask, they sometimes will even give you a few more. All in all, this is a good place to pick up party supplies or just some wine or spirits to have around the house.

Grew up in Jackson when it was a dry county. Go back for high school reunions and family visits…read more Love good wine and for a few years I was able to find decent wines including older vintages at Forked Vine Wine & Spirits. They have a glassed in refrigerated cellar in one corner. The visit before last found this room about 25% stocked and it was difficult to find something drinkable in terms of quality and maturity. The most recent visit in early September 2023 found the room about 10% stocked and the cooling unit not working, so the room temp was about 80 degrees instead of the 55 it should be. I wound up buying a few warm wines from the room just because I knew they would likely be better than any of the wine outside the room. I spoke to the staff and told them about my past good experiences and my recent unpleasant ones. I also told them how important it was to maintain quality wines at a decent temperature. I have been to every liquor store in Jackson, TN, and they all have only lower end wines that are very young. From now on I will ship wines to Jackson ahead of my visit. But I don't understand why the owner of this once good shop let this happen.

The restaurant has a nice outdoor patio that would be great for an afternoon meal or summertime dinner. Inside, the restaurant is spacious and has a separate bar area for adult fun. In the dining room, you also have a view of the pizza oven. We ordered garlic knots and cheese bread. The garlic knots were smothered in Parmesan cheese and came with marinara sauce. The cheese bread was deliciously made with the same sourdough bread as the pizza crust. It also came with three dipping sauces -- garlic olive oil, pesto, and marinara. The pizza was amazing with the sourdough base. We ordered a large pepperoni to share, a chicken Parmesan calzone, and a ribeye wrap. All three were so yummy and the portions were large enough for us to take leftovers with us. The service was prompt and friendly. When drinks ran out, they refilled them quickly. In total, we spent around $100 for the four of us, which is about average for a night out with full meals, appetizers, and a couple of beers. Would definitely come back the next time we drive through Jackson, TN.

As I moved here a couple of days ago and I'm living out of a hotel until my belongings arrive on a moving truck, and I'm eating a lot of food out. I could say before this restaurant I was a little disappointed in the food I was trying at restaurants that had been rated five stars on yelp. For example, and it didn't happen at this restaurant, I had a Cobb salad the night before that relied on gobs of cheese to please, which shouldn't even be on a cob salad. But enough, groaning and moaning, and back to this restaurant. I love seafood, and I got the seafood appetizer platter. It was really good and I was quite satisfied. I started eating it and I thought now this is what I've been hoping for in a Jackson dining experience rated with high stars on yelp. I am looking forward to coming back to the restaurant and trying more of the items on the menu as there were many things that looked good.
