Fork of the South is such a fun store! A wide variety of gift ideas can be found here in The Factory, newly located in Building 8. The cookbook section was amazing! The folks who helped at check out were so helpful and friendly!

We love visiting The Factory in Franklin, TN. Visiting Fork of the South is a must each time. Their new location in building 8 is perfect for their growing store. Everything is nicely organized too. There’s something for everyone.

I bring my granddaughter in every Monday. That’s our day together. She loves to pick out one special toy in The Fork and then go for ice cream, right there in the shop. Best homemade ice cream I have ever had! Everyone is so sweet and kind. It’s a pleasure to do business there. A must see and visit when at The Factory.

Love this place! There’s so many great “Gift-y” things for presents, Christmas stockings, hostess gifts, (jewelry, perfume, woodsy fragrant soaps, local themed, kids stuff, and more) We bring visitors here and they always spend at least a half hour perusing!

This was one of many visits I've made to Fork of the South General Store over the last 4 years, and as usual, it was a wonderful experience. The warmest, most hospital staff welcome you as you enter the store. You enter near the food hall - where you can order breakfast, lunch, quick bites, ice cream, shakes, and more! The food is all delicious. My favorite is the pimento cheese, though the countless home-made ice cream options are a close second. In addition to the main food hall, there is a beautiful Southern Tea Room that oozes graciousness and hospitality - you won't want to miss it! The newest addition is Sips at the Silo - a soda and frosty drinks area that has tons of delicious options! Once you've eaten and visited a while, you absolutely have to go down the hall to the boutique. Fork of the South carries the best products! Most things are from other small businesses, and there is something for everyone. I do most of my gift shopping here (in addition to shopping for myself!). Even as a frequenter of the store, I always find something new I can't live without every time I visit. Everything about the store, food hall and staff is so inviting and warm. The owner, Stef, if an absolute gem and one of the kindest people you'll ever meet. She remembers her customers and becomes quick friends with everyone. If you go to the Factory, you absolutely must stop here, you'll be so glad you did. Fork of the South is, without a doubt, my favorite part of the Factory at Franklin and the main reason I go there! Once you go once, you'll be hooked and keep coming back - which is good because there's always something new happening at FOTS!!
