Fodor's Expert Review Applewood's Farmhouse Restaurant

The owners of this restaurant have never romanticized "the good ol' days" just for the sake of marketing, but they do capitalize on the sucess of their family recipes developed over time, perfected with effort, and prepared with fresh ingredients. Homemade apple butter, apple fritters, and fruit juleps feature here, as well as signature menu items such as the famous Southern fried chicken, chicken potpie, and chicken and dumplings. You'll feel welcome from the minute you sit down inside the Kilpatrick family home, converted to a restaurant in 1987, and it's certainly worth sticking around long enough to try some apple cobbler for dessert. Wait times can sometimes extend to an hour during busy seasons.
