About Southern Fresh

Nestled in the heart of Safety Harbor, just a short drive from Clearwater, Florida, Southern Fresh is more than just a restaurant – it’s a place where family traditions meet modern flavors. Our story began with a passion for crafting scratch-cooked Southern meals, made from recipes passed down through generations. In 1928, the cozy cottage we call home was built with love, and since then, it’s become a cherished gathering spot for locals and visitors alike.

Our menu reflects the soul of Southern cooking. Every dish, from our famous fried chicken to our homemade sides, is made with the finest ingredients and prepared using time-honored techniques like hand-battering and frying in cast-iron skillets. When you dine with us, you’re not just getting a meal – you’re experiencing the warmth of home-cooked comfort food that feels just like Grandma’s kitchen.

At Southern Fresh, we take pride in our roots and our community. As a family-owned business, we’re committed to bringing people together over delicious food, creating lasting memories with every bite. Whether you’re enjoying a hearty dinner with your loved ones or stopping by for a quick lunch, we welcome you like family.
