Overview

IN 2022, THE CITY OF SMYRNA DEMOLISHED AUNT FANNY’S CABIN.

The building that formerly served as the Smyrna Welcome Center was once a famous restaurant serving up Southern-themed fare. Isoline Campbell MacKenna opened Aunt Fanny’s Cabin in 1941, turning an 1890s-era cabin into a country store selling food made using the recipes of Fanny Williams, her family’s retired cook. The restaurant, originally located a few miles away from its current location, operated until 1994.
