In this video we will tell you about the continuation of our journey through the state of Tennessee, and we are heading to north central part of the state towards Nashville.
Of course you are all familiar with Nashville - the city that boasts hundreds of videos on KZread, showcasing its unique atmosphere, vibrant nightlife buzzing with the loud music From the honky-tonks on Broadway to the soulful melodies echoing through the streets.
And many of you have seen videos capturing the charming atmosphere of Franklin, that welcomes you with its quiet, charming beauty, Cobblestone streets, historic architecture, and tree-lined avenues.
Thats why Today, let's set aside these well-known cities and dive into the captivating story of the lesser-known but absolutely attention-worthy village of Leiper's Fork.
- way back in the 19th century , Leiper's Fork started as a quiet farming village in Tennessee. Fields and farms painted the landscape, weaving the village into the fabric of time.
Fast forward to today, and Leiper's Fork is a different kind of gem. It's become a cozy spot, attracting artists and folks looking for a break from the big city hustle.
Our morning at Leiper's Fork began on a delightful note with a visit to Country Boy Restaurant.
This classic country breakfast spot, nestled in the heart of the village boasts an inviting atmosphere and friendly staff. I highly recommend making a stop during your visit for a genuine taste of local culture and engaging conversations.
We were fortunate to meet the new owner of country boy , who shared with us some exciting plans to make this place even more appealing for visitors.
One of his ideas is to open a relaxed outdoor space in the backyard that will be like a speak-easy spot for evening hangouts - fresh air, good conversations, and a chill vibe. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out!
The anchor of the town is definitely Fox & Locke, an old-time spot where you can grab a burger off the grill with a beer, and enjoy live music almost every night.
Since our trip was early in the morning and the restaurant was still closed, we were not able to visit it to show you all the details of this local gem.
Believe me you don't need to visit every restaurant and bar in the village to soak in the local vibe. A simple stroll along the streets lets you savor the charm and beauty of this area, capturing the authentic atmosphere effortlessly.
I can't miss mentioning the abundance of antique store and souvenir shops scattered throughout the village.
Leiper’s Fork offers numerous shopping options, from Creekside Trading Co. that sells decor, apparel, accessories, antiques and local art to Props and Bunker shops where you can find Antiques, and vintage stuff as well as craft candies, chocolates & other unique gifts.
