Our Story
Cookeville’s premier rooftop dining experience—an elevated, farm-to-table concept where stone-fired cuisine, refined atmosphere, and genuine hospitality come together above the heart of downtown.
Fire & Vine was created with a simple conviction: exceptional dining belongs everywhere – even in a small town.Located in the heart of Cookeville’s WestSide, we have built an atmosphere often described as something you would expect to find in Nashville – layered, vibrant, and thoughtfully designed. From our year-round rooftop to our refined dining room below, every detail reflects our ongoing commitment to elevation. We continually reinvest in our space because the environment should be just as memorable as the meal.
Stone-Fired at the Core
Fire is in our name for a reason.
Our stone-fired pizzas anchor the menu, including our Chicago-style pizza – praised by guests as rivaling the very best in Chicago. Surrounding that cornerstone is a menu that continues to evolve toward seasonally driven, farm-to-table ingredients and chef-led refinement. We believe great food is intentional. It is sourced thoughtfully, prepared carefully, and presented beautifully. Each dish is designed not simply to satisfy, but to create a moment.
Unreasonable Hospitality
Our guiding principle is unreasonable hospitality – the belief that generosity, attentiveness, and care should exceed expectations. We do not aim to simply serve tables. We aim to anticipate needs, create comfort, and elevate occasions. Whether you are celebrating something significant or enjoying an evening out, our team is committed to making you feel seen, valued, and genuinely welcomed. That same philosophy shapes our internal culture. Fire & Vine is family-owned and proudly people-focused. We believe investing in our team creates an environment where hospitality is authentic, not transactional.
Rooted in Community
Cookeville is our home – and we treat it that way.
We are honored to have received the Legacy Award from Cookeville CityScape in recognition of our dedication to strengthening downtown and elevating the WestSide. Our commitment extends beyond our walls – through continued reinvestment, local partnerships, and an unwavering belief that vibrant communities are built intentionally.
Brunch, Refined
Friday through Sunday, Fire & Vine transitions seamlessly into brunch – an elevated extension of our evening experience.
Crafted cocktails, thoughtfully prepared dishes, and rooftop ambiance transform late mornings into occasions. Whether beginning the weekend on Friday, gathering on Saturday, or savoring a slow Sunday, brunch at Fire & Vine is designed to feel indulgent yet effortless.
Come for the food.
Stay for the atmosphere.
