Fork of the South Southern Tea Room & Candy Martini Bar
4.3 (71)cafe
Classic tiered tea service meets playful candy martinis in an intimate, chandelier-lit Franklin tearoom.
Description






Tucked inside Fork of the South Under the Smokestack, the room frames traditional tea rituals with blue velvet chairs and exposed brick. Multi-course service moves from tomato bisque and goat cheese salad with citrus poppyseed dressing to savory bites like cucumber dill and chicken salad sandwiches, paired with scones, house sweet cream, and loose-leaf blends like Orchard Peach. The space also hosts mahjong events and a reservation-only full tasting experience, though visitor feedback notes trade-offs in small portions and strict time limits.
