About Back Home Restaurant

The story of Back Home started about 25 years ago. Linda Fulkerson and her mother, Lola Allen (also known as Nanny) became well known around town for their crafts. Back Home started out of the trunk of Linda's car and the business began to grow. In 1984, Linda rented a small two room store in the heart of Elizabethtown and outgrew the space. The ladies of Elizabethtown went crazy, then Linda rented a larger space two doors down that had five rooms. The husbands were not head over heels. Some of the husbands wished that there was something to snack on while waiting on their wives. This gave Linda an idea and she started serving pie and coffee. Once again, the business outgrew its surroundings. In 1989, Linda found this old house that you are sitting in now, with a larger space for crafts and antiques. Naturally, the lady shoppers needed even more time to shop, but Linda still had the men to contend with. That was when beans and cornbread, pimento cheese sandwiches and pie showed up. To Linda's amazement the four tables she had set up for the husbands started filling up with lunch customers. Room after room that had originally been set up for crafts had to give way to more tables for the restaurant that was never meant to be.

Back Home prides itself on being family owned and operated. Linda has passed the torch to her daughter Lori and Lori's husband, Steve. Lori's father, Tommy, still does the majority of the cooking. Yes, folks, most of these are our family recipes, and you can almost always find a family member at the restaurant. We take great pride in what started with Linda and Nanny's crafts which has grown into this restaurant.

We are here to make you feel at home and to let you know that you can always go "Back Home" again.
