We're so excited to share our favorite places in our favorite town with you this weekend!
UGA Arch (Downtown Athens)
Broad Street x College Ave, Athens, GA 30602
Iconic fixture on the UGA Campus. Where everyone takes graduation pictures, engagement pictures, formal pictures....where we got engaged!
But be careful - don't walk under it until you've graduated or you will never graduate!
Mama's Boy Restaurant
197 Oak Street, Athens, GA 30601, (706) 548-6249
There is also a location at 8851 Macon Hwy that tends to be less busy. The chicken biscuit is a must! Add the raspberry preserves!
Last Resort Grill
174-184 West Clayton Street, Athens, GA 30601, (706) 549-0810
The white chocolate cheesecake is to die for!
Barberitos
259 East Clayton Street, Athens, GA 30601, (706) 549-9008
Great for a quick bite. Athens' version of Moe's.
Big City Bread Cafe
393 North Finley Street, Athens, GA 30601, (706) 353-0029
Great casual spot for breakfast or lunch. Closes at 2pm.
Creature Comforts Downtown Taproom and Brewery
271 West Hancock Avenue, Athens, GA 30601, (706) 410-1043
The best brewery in Athens located right downtown. Stop in for a glass of Athena - it's our favorite!
The Place
229 East Broad Street, Athens, GA 30608, (706) 850-2988
The Place is a great restaurant for nicer southern fare. The food and drinks are great, especially the chicken sandwich and the Tropicalia Margarita.
The Globe
199 North Lumpkin Street, Athens, GA 30601, (706) 353-4721
The BLT and pretzels with beer cheese are both out of this world. The Globe also has a great German beer selection.
