My name is Chris Dodge and I live right here in the great state of Tennessee. My family and I are full adventurers filled with passion to see the amazing things our state has to offer. We are avid hikers and have explored many different places in Tennessee and beyond but we are always thankful to be living in such a glorious state.
Granny Fishes House in Wartrace, Tennessee, may be off the beaten path — but everyone who dines there would agree it’s worth the effort. This restaurant specializes in seafood, but also has quite a diverse menu. Add to that a heaping side of Southern hospitality, and get ready to discover your new favorite Tennessee restaurant!
There is an old Southern saying that goes something like this, “Why don’t you pull up a chair and sit for a spell."
If you are from the South, then you are probably very familiar with the saying -- but for those of you who may not know, it simply means to pull up a chair and stay awhile. The idea is to stay and visit for a little bit; don’t be in a hurry to go away. That sentiment is exactly what you will find at Granny Fishes' House. The building itself looks like a warm and inviting home. It isn’t just aesthetics; this is a way of life in Tennessee.
Inside is a cozy dining area which is fitting because the whole experience at Granny Fishes' House is like visiting your own grandmother and she blesses you with mounds of delicious, homemade food.
The seafood is delectable and as delightful as the service. Every meal is prepared fresh and made with fine ingredients to ensure you have an authentic Southern supper. So when you order the fried catfish, for example, you are guaranteed to get a mouthwatering dinner you won't forget.
Dinners all come with a side of white beans, slaw or applesauce, hush puppies, and a potato. The sides alone might make you want to come back for more, time and time again... especially the hush puppies -- trust us, they are that good!
Despite its name, this restaurant doesn't only serve seafood. You can order chicken, burgers, and much more. The menu is diverse and boasts a robust range of Tennessee classics.
One option that you simply have to try is the special they serve every Thursday through Saturday: frog legs. It might seem a little crazy at first, but people can not get enough of this delicacy and we recommend you try it yourself.
Granny Fishes House in Wartrace, Tennessee, is located in a lovely town that is filled with friendly faces and you will feel at home at this seafood restaurant. It is more than just great food it is a wholly southern experience that must be seen to believe. Make sure you visit the Granny Fishe’s House website for any more information.
The town of Wartrace is filled with lovely things to see and would make for an excellent weekend getaway.
