    Salmon and cream potatoes
    Mattie L.

    Ahhh, what a Wonderful place to come for breakfast, brunch or lunch. The location is amazing right by Union Station and the center of everything with beautiful large windows! I ordered tupelo shrimp & grits, american white gulf shrimp with smoky chorizo sausage, peperonata, and creole sauce over creamy stone-ground goat cheese grits, topped with scallions & griddled lemon. I was in hog heaven the food was so good! I ordered a coffee and was amazed by the presentation of my coffee. I thought it would be a cup of coffee, cream and sugar. But the presentation on a little plate had me smiling from ear to ear. My daughter ordered the salmon with cream potatoes. She said it was delicious! Our Server was Awesome!!! Love the location, food, the Server, the ambiance about this restaurant! Ten stars!!!

Old fashioned flight... over the damn top! Ohh and the magic color changing lemonade thing, will do again! I obviously had a terrible time here LOL Service was great, Savannah was a gem. Beautiful location and brunch 10 outta 10 would do again... I mean 5 outta 5!!!

    We loved the Tupelo honey in Asheville and when we found out TH was in Denver! We lost our minds. We loved loved their biscuits, their sweet tea, fried green tomatoes, fried chicken... so of course we had to come here!

    Mimosa flights
    Chynna D.

    Stopped here on a visit to Denver. Parking was a bit tedious but that's expected downtown. At the time we arrived they weren't too busy. I ordered a meal special that included fried chicken, pancakes, eggs and bacon. I was a little sad that it wasn't specified that I would get boneless chicken versus bone in. Overall it was a good meal. My pancakes were fluffy! I ordered a side of toast that didn't come out and I had to remind the waitress twice to get it. I also ordered the mimosa flight. They were all great but my fav was the, cinnamon apple flavor.

    Buttermilk Fried Chicken Tenders
    Kaitlyn P.

    I came on a Sunday morning and was seated quickly upon arrival. The menu is quite extensive with plenty of variety, but I definitely had my eye on the chicken since that's what they are known for. Here's what I ordered: 1. The biscuits for a cause were delicious, and I love that the proceeds go to charity. 2. The fried pickles had a thicker batter than I usually prefer, but they were still tasty, especially paired with the ranch. 3. The buttermilk fried chicken tenders were outstanding and the three sauces they came with were all equally amazing. 4. The honey dusted fried chicken was perfectly crispy and full of flavor. Every dish exceeded my expectations, but the real surprise was the side of potatoes. I have never had potatoes like these; they were the crispiest and most flavorful I have ever tasted. I was left genuinely impressed. Overall, everything was fantastic, and I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great meal.

    I got a gift certificate for here & really feasted like a king on my outing. I tried a little bit of EVERYTHING & when I tell you... I was not expecting everything to be so good. The friend pickles were the perfect breading to pickle ratio. The mocktail was thoughtful, not just juice. The health shot was *actually delicious.* And that banana pudding, wow. Literally everything was amazing. The flavors, ingredients, presentation, delivery. 20 stars. You have to go here. And we weren't even there for brunch, which this place would clearly do impeccably. I just happened to secure some breakfast dishes for my main meal since I'm mostly GF. Highly recommend. Staff was great. Vibe was comfy - upscaled, but relaxed about it.

    Extra Spicy Bloody Mary
    Erin S.

    Yum! Cute place right next to Union Station. Parking is a bit difficult to find a spot, but TH makes up for it. Adorable decor abounds TH. They went with the bee theme and committed, as one should. Brunch looked tasty but I went for a lunch menu item of grilled cheese and tomato soup- yum! The grilled cheese was well prepared with a couple of cheese thrown in the mix, all grilled to perfection on Texas toast. The tomato soup was divine. It was clearly homemade with added spices and bits of fresh tomatoes. In staying with the tomato theme, I also had a Bloody Mary- spiced up. It was very tasty. Our server was friendly. They are known for their homemade biscuits. I sampled one from my friend's order and it was tasty for sure. Will definitely go back to try some more deliciousness.

    Cauliflower and Waffles
    Rajandeep D.

    Located conveniently near the Union Station this restaurant had a lot to offer. My friend and I went in for brunch. The restaurant was quite busy but we were able to get a spot at the communal table right away. It's a gorgeous restaurant with a lot of space and beautifully decorated. For drinks, my friend got the Iced Dirty Chai and based on our server's recommendation, I got the Shaken Iced Matcha Latte. The Dirty Chai was delicious (a little on the sweeter side but still good). At first they gave me the wrong drink (coffee instead of the matcha) but when they brought me the right drink (Matcha Latte) I wished I had kept the coffee. The matcha drink was awful. Purely sugar and it kinda tasted like a soda? If you love matcha I would advise against this item. As for food, I ordered the Sriracha Honey Chicken & Waffles while my friend got the vegetarian version which was chicken replaced with Cauliflower. I loved my Sriracha Honey, it was a perfect balance of sweet and spicy, the chicken was tender and the waffles were crispy on the outside. My friend thought her's was mid and could've used a bit more seasoning. This meal was a bit on the heavier side for me, 1,000 cals is a lot for brunch.

    Signature Fried Chicken

    Amazing fried chicken, friendly waitstaff's , great coffee, everything delicious and unique. I can taste the freshness of ingredients use for dish .. reasonable prices too

    This use to be one of my absolute all time favorites. I haven't been to one in about 7 years and as I'm visiting Denver I see it so I immediately try out this downtown location. Personally, it just isn't the same. The chicken blt sandwich was the best part outside of the service. I would still recommend trying this restaurant out if you're in the area as it wasn't bad but it wasn't what I remember.

    Heirloom Grits with Goat Cheese*** Sweet & Spicy Chicken
    Morgan H.

    *CELIAC / GLUTEN FREE REVIEW very cute venue and kind staff, the in-person menu is a little different than the online menu with a few more GF options - including GF buns + bread for sandwiches and burgers. I got the sweet and spicy chicken sandwich, with the fried chicken subbed for grilled chicken. They do toast buns on the grill, so I asked if they could cook my chicken in a separate pan and the waiter said that would be no problem. they do not have a dedicated fryer. I also got a side of the goat cheese grits, everything was yummy and I did not get sick!

    Jessie A.

    Really trendy cute spot! Service was great! They had some short staffing issues and delays but our server was so communicative and did a great job. Hubby loved the chicken and waffles and my breakfast plate was good. Something did hurt my stomach - think it was the cross contamination from fryer (potatoes) or the oil they used (many allergies) but that was the choice I made. Everything was yummy, location was great!

    Ask the Community - Tupelo Honey Southern Kitchen & Bar

    Is it easy to find parking and is it free to park?

    There is no street parking. There are several pay parking garages in the area.

    Are there TV's to watch the Broncos game?

    At the bar.

    Is this business dog friendly on the patio?

    I have seen people with their dogs at the outdoor patio.

    What gluten free options are available? I do not see any listed on the menu.

    Is there anything vegan on the menu?

    They have salads

    What are prices like?

    Comparable prices to other restaurants around the ski area. I got a Kobe burger for lunch and it was $18, truffle fries as a side were an addition $7. Big portions and delicious food for the price. Happy hour had really good prices ($5 Sonoma wine,… Read more

    Looking at the lunch menu, I only see one thing listed as GF. Anyone know if they have more options? This place keeps coming up as GF, but the online menu fails to I'd Foods that could be made GF.…

    Sorry, I did not see either when I was there. I was suggested that biscuits are good. Not not GF kind

    Suggestions on parking?

    The Whole Foods Parking garage

    Is there bottomless mimosas?

    Yes! I believe they have bottomless mimosas on both Saturday and Sunday day. If I recall correctly they start at 9:00am

    I know getting a table can be a little crazy at lunch time. Our group is interested in having a late(r) lunch (after 1) and then just working for a bit -- we'd need wifi. Does Tupelo Honey have relaxed enough seating yet (and wifi) to enable this?

    I'd suggest making an Open Table reservation to avoid the long wait. They have WiFi, but turn tables over quickly to accommodate other guests. I'd suggest grabbing a table at Union Station across the street. Free WiFi and plenty of seating and… Read more

    We will have a party of 13 - 15 and want to dine together. Can that be accomodated?

    Definitely! Not sure if you can sit at the chef's table (has its own beer tap) with a party that size but you can definitely get an outdoor table or tables in the back. I would recommend calling and getting a reservation.

    Well, I have visited this restaurant 3 times. All 3 times have been for a holiday brunch or…read moredinner. Location (4 stars) This restaurant is downtown near the convention center. parking is pricy if you valet park at the hotel. Last year it was around $40. Parking in the lot across the street for $25 dollars Easter Sunday. If you use a walker, I would not recommend the parking lot across the street. Food (3 Stars) The Thanksgiving buffet is the best one. I would rate that buffet a (4). The Christmas and Easter buffet are pretty low key. There is a carving station (ham and prime rib). There is an omelet station. Dessert bar is decorative. Cheesecake was delicious. The warming station with potatoes, sausage etc. leaves much to be desired. The charcuterie station is sparse. They offer unlimited mimosas for an additional $25. Service (5 stars) Staff are extremely friendly. Cleanliness (2 stars) My only complaint, I saw a tabletop being cleaned off with a rag used to clean the chairs and then under the table on the floor and on to the next tabletop. I'm just a little picky about that. Especially since folks these days go commando and wear short attire, and you know their parts are on the chair and now spread to tabletops. Wiping up the crumbs off the floor with same rag simply through me over the edge. Atmosphere (4 stars) Spacious uncrowded environment. Nice decor. Bright with large windows.

    During the last few Denver Restaurant Week events, I've tried to take the offerings as an…read moreopportunity to sample restaurants that I haven't tried, or otherwise may not try, and see if I can add to my list of favorites. I saw Former Saint on CBS News, and the menu and food looked incredible. In particular, that white chocolate blueberry cheesecake was something I know my hubby would look forward to all week! I loved the idea of local food and fresh homemade dishes. Sounds healthy, after a week of potential over-indulgence at other restaurant week venues. An additional bonus was that it is located right near the Denver Convention Center and the Performing Arts Center. This has become a dry spot for fine dining, with even the choices on Larimer Square growing more thin, giving rise to the inability to get reservations at favorites like Tamayo and Rioja prior to a show. I go to performances frequently with friends, and despite my rule to avoid hotel restaurants (Former Saint is in the Hyatt Regency), I thought I'd scope out Former Saint as a place to take my friends before the next symphony or Children's Chorale or ballet or broadway performance. I must say, the jury is still out. Former Saint was a Jekyll and Hyde of courses. Parking was not difficult (Yay, maybe I can park here prior to my shows, if I grab a bite first). There is a large garage, and the promise of validation from the restaurant. The ambiance of the restaurant is typical hotel restaurant. Booths, tables, old and a bit drab. Except for the bar. Oh, my! The bar has this BEAUTIFUL copper creation above it, adding so much industrial character to the space! I was in awe looking at it, as it appeared to bring craft suds to the bartender's taps. I didn't ask how it worked, as it wasn't clear how the beer separation and dispensing worked, but it was a great centerpiece and spectacle for the place. I do wish I had investigated more about this architectural marvel, and will do so if I return. For restaurant week, my husband chose the Lobster Ravioli, Ribeye, and blueberry cheesecake (as predicted). I chose the Gotham salad, roasted chicken, and key lime tart. The lobster ravioli was nice; my husband was surprised that it was a toasted ravioli, but enjoyed it. My salad was full of beautiful greens, pears, walnuts, and feta. No scrimping here! The dressing was light and sweet/sour. The pears were a bit unripe and crisp, to the point that I was having trouble identifying exactly what fruit I was eating, but other than that, the salad was beautiful, healthy, and ample. My husband's ribeye steak was a nice cut, done to his liking. Slivered hash browns were underneath with a nice green chimichurri on top and some sliced Fresnos adding a welcome kick to the dish. My chicken was delightful. 1/2 chicken on the bone, seasoned nicely, and with a pan sauce. The breast was super-tender and delicious. It came atop cheesy grits, which was a yummy substitute for a mashed potato. I also was served side salad of curly lettuce and fennel. I probably didn't need more salad, but I was glad to have the healthy side on my plate. I will say that this salad was over-seasoned. The chicken and grits were great, but the salad too salty. My husband ordered a glass of J. Lohr Cabernet, which was a very nice find on the wine list, as far as a pairing for his ribeye. That said, the glass cost $30! A bit much, I might say. The real detractor, unfortunately, was dessert. The blueberry cheesecake looked nothing like the beautiful creamy white cheesecake accented throughout by purple blueberries, which I saw on the CBS News clip. My husband was served a very small solid purple slice, overcome with whipped cream dollops. This cheesecake had been uncovered in the fridge too long, with sort of a skin on it. My husband ate almost none of it. My key lime tart was similarly over-adorned with whipped cream, although I had some nice raspberries on top. The tart also seemed overexposed to the cool air, with the thickening of a skin on top. It was a very disappointing way to end a nice meal, and belied the healthy, homemade, craft theme. High points of this experience include the well-crafted and healthy entrees, the fact that we could see the convention center right outside our window (i.e., the location is perfect for pre-event or -theater), the $3.00 validated parking fee, and that beautiful copper tap system. Will the pros outweigh the cons? Will we be back with friends? Time will tell.
