This place was fantastic! I think they were little shocked when I told them we had 10 people, my family is huge we roll deep when we go to places. Services was phenomenal, the little ladies were fantastic. Loved thr Mason jar Teas, which was amazing tasting! Food was great. We will definitely be back, was awesome especially being new to town and just moving in, we absolutely loved it.
Shrimp is the size of my finger. If you’re going to offer something make sure the portion size is for a normal human being. Not a petite little girl. Do better it shouldn’t be difficult to get things right
We were in the area and wanted to try something new. The parking was easy. We were greeted when we walked in and told we could pick our table. We chose a table in the front room. Looking around we noticed the warm wooden tones and country charm. The menu looked good and while we waited on our food we got our sweet teas. Yum. We thoroughly liked them. Be prepared because they come in quart sized mason jars. I even had a second one. (Tuesday, 02/24/2026)
My family and I enjoyed our meals, lots to choose from everything was fresh and delicious. They have a nice little salad bar too! I recommend the bacon jam burger and onion rings.
The Local Fork has a cozy log-cabin vibe both inside and out, with warm, bright windows and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. The food is great-you really can’t go wrong with any of their fried options. The blooming onion is a must-try, it’s delicious and big enough to share with the whole family. They also bring out complimentary cornbread and dinner rolls, and the butter was so creamy. Service was fast, and the wait staff was awesome. We also loved the variety on the menu. We’ll definitely be back!
If you ever find yourself passing through Emory and see The Local Fork, do yourself a favor and STOP! 🍴 We stumbled across this little gem while traveling, and it instantly felt like home. Their Sunday buffet was pure Southern comfort. Perfectly seasoned hamburger steak bites, crispy catfish, and that golden fried chicken that could make your grandma jealous. 😍 But y’all… those drop biscuits with honey butter?! 🧈🍯 Absolute heaven. I could’ve made a meal out of those alone! The staff were the kind of people that make you feel like family from the minute you walk in; warm smiles, quick service, and genuine kindness. 💛 Great prices, incredible food, and that small-town charm that just fills your heart. 💫 5 stars, hands down. If I lived closer, they’d know my order by heart by now! 🥰
We ended our fishing trip and enjoyed lunch here. We had AMAZING lunch, great service, it was fresh in there, the ice tea is refreshing!! I only took a picture of my food but everyone enjoyed their food! We were a group of 6. Our server has an amazing memory! He took our order got it correct didn't write anything down. Definitely will be back. My catfish was delicious!!!
I got the American potato with chicken fried steak and it was a perfect portion. My granddad got the Loaded Mac and cheese, not only was it beautiful but decadent. My mom got the chicken fried chicken with onion rings and potatoes on the side. The fry was nice and crispy and the onion rings were mammoth. Large portions mean share or leftovers. Service is very friendly and accommodating. I definitely recommend, as a great option for some classic southern eats without excess grease and a menu option for everyone.
