About Us

Authentic, but certainly not ordinary
Premium Meat & Seafood

We care where our food comes from, which is why we are proud to work with Birmingham-based purveyor, Evan’s, to attain the best Gulf seafood and the highest quality proteins from reputable farms renowned for sustainable & humane methods.

Support For Local Growers

For the freshest ingredients, we start at the source—building relationships with local providers who nurture rich & flavorful produce that help cultivate our creativity year-round.

Outstanding Bar Program

Our bar boasts regional beers and a reputable whiskey collection, as well as house-made tonics and syrups for seasonal cocktails. The wine list is playful and adventurous and frequently rotates to compliment an ever-changing menu.

Atmosphere

Rustic Elegance

Nestled on a hilltop overlooking The Stables, pastures, and forests, SpringHouse treats guests to local cuisine served in rustic, casual elegance. The interior is composed of rough-hewn beams, hand-forged ironwork, and a magnificent open kitchen complete with a wood-fired oven and grill. In the heart of the main dining room is a grand functioning fireplace.

The covered patio dining area is surrounded by stone and large shutters that open to the pastoral view. The upstairs loft dining area overlooks the main dining room and opens to a large balcony with ivy-covered chimneys. For special occasions, guests are invited to reserve the WellHouse—a private 12-seat dining room connected to the restaurant by an underground wine cellar.

Team

Great Passion

At SpringHouse, it’s about creating a complete dining experience. A beautiful setting and comfortable atmosphere—a warm greeting and attentive service—a curated menu and exquisite wines—each element works in concert to create the most memorable occasions. Our team looks forward to sharing those moments with you.

A Simpler Time

Russell Crossroads

Throughout our country’s history, the town center has served as a community gathering spot—a common meeting ground to shop, to dine and if luck had it, to leave with a few friendships formed. Located in the heart of the Russell Lands community, Russell Crossroads perfectly blends these storied traditions with today’s conveniences.
