Mama's Boy is an Athens staple. A locally owned diner that is close to the Greenway, this place has been voted best breakfast in Athens 4 years in a row! Try the biscuits and jam or if you're feeling extra fancy, why not indulge in chocolate cake for breakfast?

Trappeze Pub If you are looking for the most extensive beer list in Athens, Trappeze is your place. Trappeze is such an awesome place to hang out with friends and try some new brews. They also serve upscale bar food that is always wonderful. This gastropub is a favorite of both Morgan and Michael!

Etienne Brasserie is a quaint French bistro with a relaxed, comfortable setting. In the heart of downtown Athens Georgia, Etienne offers a refined yet unpretentious rustic fair and a full bar. Would highly recommend this place for brunch. Nothing quite like French Press coffee and fine Paris inspired fare.

The Varsity has been serving world famous chilidogs in Athens for 74 years. You can find this classic staple just a few minutes drive from downtown. There is nothing wrong with some onion rings and a cold PC- with ice of course!
