Leaf & Berry, a new café located in Martin, Tennessee, opened to the public on Wednesday, Sept. 2, 2026. This new restaurant offers the Martin community a health-focused menu of acai bowls, salads, sandwiches and more.

Leaf & Berry marks the sixth business of owner Drew Beeler and his family under Beeler Investments in Martin. It is their first business in Martin. A deciding factor for his family choosing Martin to open a business was their familial ties to the University of Tennessee at Martin, where both of Beeler’s parents, Tim and Ashley, graduated from and where his younger brother Miles Beeler currently studies as a freshman.
