Good forFood & drink lovers
Walnut Hills has operated since 1980, founded by Joyce Clingan in a building that dates to 1880, and is known for its round-table Southern lunch service, where dishes of fried chicken, turnip greens, and black-eyed peas are passed family-style among strangers at communal tables. The format preserves a boarding-house dining tradition that has largely disappeared elsewhere in the South.
