Southern-inspired restaurant Milk & Honey is set to open its doors at 801 King Street in Old Town on Monday, July 7, bringing the popular brunch and dinner concept to the heart of Alexandria.
The new full-service restaurant will occupy the space formerly occupied by Hen Quarter, another concept of Thompson Restaurants. A reason for the restaurant swap has not been made public.
The location will serve as a complete restaurant and bar, featuring both brunch and dinner service with online ordering and pickup options available, according to the restaurant’s website. The restaurant will also accommodate large parties and accept reservations, offering flexibility for both intimate dining and group gatherings.
According to the restaurant’s website: “Experience the signature flavors of Milk & Honey Old Town as a full-service location, we invite you to sit back, savor, and enjoy our fresh, Southern-inspired dishes and craft-made cocktails.” For those who prefer dining at home, the location will offer online ordering with pickup and takeout options.
