  • Come along with me on a quick stop to The Whistle Stop Café - as seen in the film Fried Green Tomatoes! The cafe is located at 443 McCrackin Street in the small southern town of Juliette, about 70 miles southeast of Atlanta. The street is lined with original buildings from 1882 that today serve as antique shops and gift shops selling t-shirts and other souvenirs of the film. Walking into this cafe, and up and down this street, you'll definitely feel as though you just walked onto the set of Fried Green Tomatoes! Bonus footage includes a quick look at a couple other filming locations from the movie.

    The Whistle Stop cafe that Fannie Flagg wrote was is based on the Irondale Cafe near Birmingham Al where she grew up

      Yes they do mention a couple times in the movie that they are in Alabama. They just filmed it in Georgia.

      They tasted much better than I had anticipated! I’m hooked! Glad you enjoyed. It’s fun to rewatch the movie now, so many years later, because you see it with different eyes and pick up on things you probably missed the first time.

      Wow! That's great to know! The people in town told me they had been taken down so I didn't even bother walking around to look for them! I hope to return one day so now I'll know!

    So much fun - thanks for posting this! It was on our bucket list to visit Juliette and eat at the Whistle Stop Café, and we finally got to do it in March! We just posted our video about it (check it out if you like). We even got to see the caboose from the train scene (when Idgie & Ruth throw food to the residents of Troutville) while on a hike in Stone Mountain! 🌸

    You're wrong! Sorry honey but Fried Green Tomatoes was made in Senoia, Georgia, very near my hometown and l was there when that movie was made! Loved that movie!❤ ❤❤❤

      Actually, not wrong. Not sure why you would say that. I am definitely aware of where it was filmed as I do my research. 😊 The restaurant is indeed in Juliette, although the building was not actually a restaurant at that time. The house and railroad, however, is in Senoia, which I actually included in the video. Have a great day!
