An Old-Fashioned Diner
with Modern Tastes

When Cole Jeanes opened his Memphis diner, Kinfolk, back in March, he wanted the breakfast joint to “take you to another time,” he says. It’s a place where “colleagues channel nostalgia and personal histories, sampling the country South their parents knew and the suburban South of their childhoods, too,” writes John T. Edge. The small-town vibes are cozy and welcoming, but the elevated menu goes beyond typical country kitchen fare (think perfectly creamy French omelets and grits topped with oyster mushrooms and chile-garlic crisp). Read on to see why this new morning spot is a must-visit on your next road trip through the area.
