WELCOME TO SUPPERLAND

A Restoration Story
of a Mid-Century Church

We truly think of this spot as a “land” because there’s a lot you can do on the property from our two buildings, the patio and our garden in between. But we weren’t always a restaurant.

A great joy in restoring an old building is finding ways to keep the past alive. Maybe it’s the responsible thing to do, but it also helps pull forward history, tell our neighborhood’s stories, and give our city unique places to build upon.

Architecturally, we’ve held on to the structures of the buildings themselves, but also the windows in the large building, the center aisle in the main dining room, the staircase and the wood floors in the larger building. Find out more about our design choices here. When we open our doors, our menu will be influenced by the “place” we’re in too—you’ll find a steakhouse vibe with southern touches because we’re rooted in the south, and it’s all woven together with whimsical inspiration from church potluck picnics.

Here’s a brief timeline of the history of the property, people and place before we restored the building to bring you Supperland:

Since 1979, the building has been home to a frame shop and gallery, along with a bead shop. We’re proud to be a part of its history going forward, and glad we could work with the building owners, Manor & Park, to protect and restore a tiny slice of Plaza Midwood.

We wish to thank Pastor Lee Thrasher from Providence Road Church of Christ for his assistance in finding the historical information on the building and the people who worshiped there.
