Ford Fry’s Little Sparrow Now Serving In Atlanta

Prolific restaurateur Ford Fry is back in the kitchen cooking up another new Atlanta restaurant: Little Sparrow.

The eatery opened the last weekend to the general public. Little Sparrow hosted an “Opening Party” on September 30, 2023 at 7 p.m. Tickets are sold out.

Little Sparrow is joined by Bar Blanc, a French-inspired bar concept and another endeavor from Fry’s Rocket Farm Restaurants group.

“As I get older, I grow less inspired by restaurants that try too hard or let ‘interesting’ overtake ‘delicious’,” Fry said in a press release. “I am inspired by restaurants that cook food I want to eat. Little Sparrow will be a place to indulge in a refined dining experience or just grab a perfect medium-rare burger and fries.” 

Little Sparrow will be housed in the space formerly occupied by Ford’s JTC Kitchen, which closed in 2021.

Where Is Little Sparrow Located?

Little Sparrow is located at 1198 Howell Mill Road in the Westside Provisions District.
