aboutus

Fork N Spoon is a Baton Rouge-based small business, born in early 2020; 

more appropriately known as the year of COVID.

We signed our kitchen lease ONE week pre-global shutdown.  

Right as the world was closing its doors, we were trying to open ours. 

Quite an undertaking for 2 twenty-something sisters, right? 

We knew we hadn't come that far to go down without a fight. 

​

While not an ideal set of circumstances, the shutdown gave us time to pivot.

Pulling on the background of our chef & owner, Kristen Abshire- 

we debuted our feel-good food in the form of pre-ordered prepared meals.  

Through this, we were able to feed people from the comfort and safety of their homes. 

​

As public restrictions started to lift, nearly one year later...  

We decided it was time to open our doors & serve fresh food to the community. 

After looking into the nearby restaurant scene- 

We quickly realized how underserved the breakfast market was in our area. 

We knew an all-day breakfast spot would be a hit! 

​

We aspired to create a welcoming space;

one where anyone can come hungry & leave happy.  

Our decor was chosen to exude a calming warmth. 

Our menu was designed to offer a unique spin on a homestyle breakfast. 

​

After lots of blood, sweat, tears & a whole pandemic-

Our restaurant officially opened on July 6, 2021.

Since then, we've met & served SO many amazing people. 

​

In light of a very successful first year in the restaurant & consequently rising demand-

We made the difficult decision to discontinue meal prep operations.

​

Seeing our dream come to life has been nothing short of amazing. 

Connecting with our community is a rewarding & motivating experience. 

We absolutely love what we do, and you can taste it in our food. 

We're eternally thankful for the support we've received since opening,

& we can't wait to see what the future has in store for our brand!
