This historic lunch spot was the setting for the novel "Fried Green Tomatoes at the WhistleStop Cafe" by Fannie Flagg and the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes." With over 70 years of tradition, it serves up old-fashioned Southern cooking like fried chicken, roast turkey, fried okra, mashed potatoes, butter beans, biscuits, and, of course, fried green tomatoes.

I have just found your site, through Cheryl. What a great asset to the Birmingham area! You have touched on most of my favorite restaurants... and some I didn't know about.
I do know about the Irondale Cafe- our family owned it for years. The new owner has done a good job of carrying on the tradition.
Thanks for the site. I'll be back.
