​We are pleased to welcome back guest Chef Brayden Apple from River Cottage Farm, a favorite at the Franklin Farmer's Market, for our 2024 season. We pride ourselves on using organic produce, meats and dairy from local farms and preparing the meals from scratch.

We hope you choose to dine with your special someone or invite your friends and enjoy this delectable and memorable experience. A craft cocktail starts the evening along with live entertainment. A house red and white wine is provided at no extra cost with your five-course locally sourced dinner, however, guests are welcome to bring their own wine with no corkage fee. Please note that liquor is not permitted.

AN ITALIAN DINNER UNDER THE STARS WITH NONNA MARIA

We are pleased to welcome owner and chef deMarco DeCiccio’s mother, Nonna Maria DeCiccio, as our guest chef for this special event. This is a rare opportunity that we are so excited to bring to our community.

Enjoy authentic Italian cuisine with live music, paired of course with delicious red and white wine.

As always, a craft cocktail will begin the evening and you'll enjoy a delicious five-course Italian meal made with love from Nonna herself!

ROCKABILLY CLUE

Come enjoy a Murder Mystery Dinner experience where classic CLUE is played with a twist. The game board is GratiDude Ranch and the suspects are those in attendance. It’s going to be a rockin and a rollin good time in the good ole hills of Tennessee!

Our cast of characters will transport you into another time - of murder - easing you into the story with improv and mischief.

This is an interactive evening that is played out during your three-course meal. It is your job to become a sleuth (and potentially accomplice) as you meet and interact with everyone throughout the evening, interrogating them as they come by your table to catch up with you, and remember the good times.

Ages 18+ due to 'adult content' so leave those ankle biters at home! The barn doors open 10 minutes before the start time and we do start promptly on time, where guests enjoy a buffet meal along with lots of laughs and mayhem.

At GratiDude Ranch Leiper’s Fork we offer you an amazing space to create your child’s memorable birthday bash experience. Your rental includes our party barn space and our petting zoo. Kids can meet our mini-cow “Red”, and our mini donkeys, mini piglets, goats, and our chicken run. You can add on pony rides, a fire pit and more! *Please note that parents provide their own food and beverage. In addition, although this is a rain proof venue, it is an outdoor venue and we do not host winter parties.
