Absolutely loved Mercier Orchards! It’s a beautiful and wonderful family friendly Orchard. The store was stocked with so many things and it included their bakery! The baked goods and apple cider were amazing! I also loved the option to pick your own apples! Such a neat experience!

Mercier Orchards is a beautiful place. It is apple festival time of year in October so it was extremely busy and crowded, but it didn't stop me from getting their apple cider donuts, apple butter, and apple taffy. It was all worth it! Those donuts are delicious with some apple butter on top. It's a must stop to enjoy the scenery!

My husband and I visited Mericer Orchard for the first time and it is a must do in the area! We explored the shop which is very neat with lots to offer. We then got some goodies from the bakery including some of their hand pies, muffin, and apple fritter. All of these were delicious and if you visit you absolutely need to check out the bakery. We then went on a tractor tour and our tour guide was super kind and knowledgeable. You can get some really neat views from this tour. We ended our visit with some wine and cider tasting. If you enjoy hard cider, this is another thing you shouldn't miss! They offer and sell many delicious ciders. We will be back when in the area again.

Very crowded orchard! The parking situation was kind of a mess. We paid $30 for 2 of us to go apple picking which I didn’t think was bad. We went to an orchard last year in Elijay and it was way more expensive so we didn’t end up going apple picking. I will say the orchard was pretty heavily picked through but we still left with so many apples! The experience was fun and we enjoyed some apples as we walked through the trees. We stopped in the store and got a donut and a fried pie before hand. Total chaos in the store. I feel like they need a better set up for getting people through the store. The line for the bakery was so long and was kind of frustrating when we couldn’t pay there. My husband enjoyed his fried pie and my donut was pretty good but I felt lacked the apple cider flavor. The apple cider itself was really good! My husband got a sparkling cider too which was really good! Overall I would come back to this orchard.

Beautiful orchards & fun experience picking apples. The store is huge with lots of variety, but we went during (apparently) peak season and it was PACKED. Would have loved to have been able to walk around the store and shop but the crowd was intense. Lines moved decently fast but wrapped into multiple rooms. Definitely a beautiful spot and would love to visit again in the spring!

Mercier Orchards in Blue Ridge, Georgia is one of the most scenic places to visit in North Georgia. The hayride through the orchard and the apple picking experience are truly memorable and perfect for families. They grow so many different varieties of apples, and it’s always fun to try something new each season. One of the best parts is their country store—everything is fresh and delicious. My absolute favorite treat is their fried pies, especially the coconut pie, which is worth the two-hour drive on its own. If you’re looking for a family-friendly day trip or authentic apple orchard experience in Blue Ridge, Mercier’s is the place to go!

Barbecue restaurant
Blue Ridge Mountain Bar-B-Q is a beloved spot in Blue Ridge, known for its southern-style hickory-smoked pork, chicken, beef, and ribs. The slow-cooked meats are complemented by a variety of fixins like Brunswick stew, coleslaw, and fried okra. Whether you're craving corn fritters or smoked chicken salad, this place has it all. Families can delight in Piglet Meals for the kids while enjoying indoor or outdoor seating options.
Southern BBQ Bliss with Pet‑Friendly Flair From the moment you arrive, it feels like stepping into a Southern home—complete with extra sugar and 100% hospitality. The pet-loving owners roll out the red carpet for both you and your furry family members. Their spacious pet-friendly deck means no one gets left out of the joy, especially pups who appreciate a shaded spot and a water bowl. Service & Ambience Friendly, down-to-earth staff greet you with genuine smiles—service that’s warm and welcoming, just like the South. Several reviewers say the owners personally check in to make sure everything’s going well ). Portion Size & Value Expect large servings that leave bellies full and hearts happy. Flavor Profile Their hickory-smoked meats—pulled pork, brisket, chicken—are slow-cooked and juicy. We had brisket plate with two sides. Food was fresh and delicious Pet-Friendly Vibes The outdoor deck isn’t just pet-friendly—it’s a highlight. Guests love bringing their dogs, and the owners make it special with bowls and shade. Owner paid special attention to our big baby. Brought him treats and asked multiple times if we needed water for him Harding working good ole American family owned business

We stopped for lunch while in Blue Ridge. We ordered the half rack of ribs and a brisket plate. The brisket was extremely dry and literally had no flavor at all. We threw all but one slice away. The ribs were okay but also not seasoned at all. The collard greens and macaroni salad were good but the Cole slaw tasted old and the macaroni and cheese was cold. The staff was friendly but I did have to wait a good while before anyone acknowledged me and took my order. We probably would not eat here again after spending $50 for such a mediocre meal.

As a local at one time we ate here often. We decided to try it again after the remodel. It's a great remodel, but, the food is not the same. The portions are very small and the prices aren't. We spent $36 for a sandwich with onion rings and a pork plate. There may have been a quarter of a cup of BBQ on my sandwich. You tasted more bun than BBQ as you will see in the picks. Sorry, I won't be back.

If I could give this restaurant 0 stars I would! We have been going to this establishment for the past 15years! 1st of all it is under new ownership! Owner is not friendly @ all! Former owners were AMAZING! She seemed very spaced out while trying to take our order! We received our food which was subpar! Before new ownership the bbq, Smoked chicken salad, fried pickle spears & corn nuggets were a must have on our multiple mountain trips every year! Now portions are much smaller, price is higher…a side of mac and cheese (which was mostly water🤢) was $4.00. Once we received our food my daughter attempted to use the squeeze bottle of barbecue sauce when the entire bottle top ruptured and barbecue sauce went everywhere on all of us! No help was offered, someone removed the bottle during our chaos of going to the bathroom to try and wash off the disaster which was everywhere! I approached the new owner and suggested that some help would have been a nice gesture...her response was "I was busy" WTH...there was no one there but us @ that moment! WOW...we will NEVER stop here ever again! Don't waste a trip the food and service were TERRIBLE! The new owner is a disgrace!

What can I say about this place other it was amazing. I can safely say I've never had a more tender and tasteful half a slab of ribs. No need for toothpicks with this meat. I was able to pull out all 6 bones with next to no meat left on them. I topped my meal with corn on the cob and fried okra. My mom got two generous scoops of the BBQ chicken salad with collard greens and fried okra. My husband got pulled pork plate with corn on the cob and French fries. All that good for a little over $30. This is a small hole in the wall BBQ stand with every bit of southern charm. I highly recommend this place.

Photo is adult size portion of the brisket sandwich I received. Portion sizes are TINY!! The meat portions were the same size as the kids menu sandwich. Brisket was mostly fat on one sandwich which any good brisket has fat, but not a majority. The gal who took my payment via debit arc was wearing food prep gloves and didn’t seem to change them. She didn’t prepare my food but shows their cleanliness practices. Their smoker is propane based, and I bet they only throw in pellets or chips to encourage flavor unlike a true smoker.

Chester Brunnenmeyer's Bar & Grill is a rustic American bar and grill located in downtown Blue Ridge. The restaurant offers a seasonal menu with high-quality dishes such as Blackened Ribeye Steak and Pimento Cheese Chicken Sandwich. They also serve regional beers and have a long list of wines to complement the diverse menu. In addition to their regular offerings, they frequently introduce new dishes and cocktails, ensuring that each visit brings something different.
This restaurant was amazing, didn’t expect to find such an awesome place in a small town but we were so impressed! Loved the loaded fries and all of the food we tried. Probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had!

Having never been before, my visit to Chester Brunnenmeyer's was great! The menu is expansive, the service is great, and the food is delicious! Our waiter, Brogan, was one of the best we've had in a while. He was hilarious, yet also familiar with the menu and was able to offer insightful suggestions. For my dinner I had the "Chester's Wing and Rib Combo" from the appetizer list - it was awesome! I wasn't sure what to expect from the wings, but they surpassed my expectations. Although food is arguably the most important part of a dining experience, I'm personally big on aesthetics as well - and Chester's nails it. The overall "vibe" of the restaurant is very cohesive and fits right in with downtown Blue Ridge. The prices are a bit high, but that's also consistent with any restaurant in Blue Ridge. P.S. I wasn't sure where to throw this in, but the water glasses as this place have a neat shape too haha.

If you’re looking for one of the best restaurants in historic downtown Blue Ridge, GA, Chester Brunnenmeyer’s is a must-visit! We had dinner here and everything was absolutely delicious, from start to finish. I ordered the smoked trout dip (a Blue Ridge specialty), and it was incredible—smoky, creamy, and perfect for sharing. My husband had their famous burger, which was juicy and flavorful, cooked perfectly, and easily one of the best burgers in Blue Ridge. My son got the pimento cheese chicken sandwich, a Southern classic with a great twist, and my dad ordered the shaved ribeye sandwich—tender, savory, and packed with flavor. Every single plate was a hit at our table. On top of the amazing food, the service was outstanding. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The atmosphere is rustic, cozy, and inviting—perfect for a night out in downtown Blue Ridge. Whether you’re a local or just visiting the North Georgia mountains, Chester Brunnenmeyer’s is a fantastic spot for lunch, dinner, or drinks. It’s conveniently located right in the heart of downtown Blue Ridge, near all the shops and attractions. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great food, excellent service, and a true Blue Ridge dining experience.

Chester’s is a great option if you’re wanting to have dinner in Blue Ridge. We ordered mozzarella sticks ribs wings and a burger fries. Oh and brownie ice cream for dessert! Delicious! We loved everything we ordered. Our waiter was great and service 10/10! Definitely will be back when we’re on vacation in the mountains again! Note: I recommend you to join their online waitlist. We were seated immediately when our table come available. No wait!

My husband and I booked the private space at Chester's for our Halloween rehearsal dinner. Upon touring, we realized that we wouldn't have enough space for a seated dinner for our 35 guests. Kyle immediately took action and let us tour the private event space at Harvest on Main, which he was able to reserve for us same day. The food was delivered from Chester's to Harvest with no issue- and it was SO delicious. We chose the baby back ribs, sauteed shrimp, jalapeno creamed corn, pecan mashed sweet potatoes, fingerling potatoes, and Caesar salad. We HIGHLY recommend their food to anyone and everyone!

Scenic Railroads
The Blue Ridge Scenic Railway is a restored heritage train that offers a 4-hour, 26-mile round-trip ride through the Appalachian foothills, along the Toccoa River, and through the Chattahoochee National Forest. The railway's tracks date back to the late 1800s and were originally used for mining and timber industries. After being purchased in the early 1900s, it operated as the Louisville & Nashville railroad until ceasing operations in 1987.
What an incredible experience and great way to make beautiful memories with your family. Spent the day in Blue Ridge and enjoyed the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway immensely with my parents and wife. Located about 2 hours away metro Atlanta this is a gem of Georgia with small city old rustic charm and beauty. The Blue Ridge Scenic Railway had a 2 hour ride and 4 hour ride (which I believe is the 2 hour ride with a 2 hour town exploration component added on). We opted for the 2 hour scenic railway and chose the indoor cabin but found that both the outdoor seating area and indoor cabins were full on a Tuesday afternoon so I can't say which one is more popular and/or better. The ride from the indoor cabin itself was peaceful, beautiful, and scenic. Riders get views of both the mountain side and river side (Toccoa River) as the guide asks guests to switch sides once the half way point destination is reached so you can enjoy the other side of train on the way back to Blue Ridge. There is a nice concession stand as well as a bar that serves mimosas. We enjoyed the concession stand area and bought a few souvenirs to remember the trip by. 5 solid stars for Blue Ridge Scenic Railway and two huge thumbs up! Adventure is out there! Thank you to the staff and crew!

Very relaxing & scenery was good. Wasn’t as exciting as I thought it’d be tho. A/C in closed car was great. Host was great. Plenty of clean bathrooms. Plenty alcohol & sodas to buy. Train was clean & on time. Lots to do in layover town. Plenty shopping! Lots to eat too. Great views at some places. We ate at Kenny’s pizza & subs which were phenomenal & prices there were great too with huge portions. Back to train that allows you back on 30 minutes before leaving if you’d like. They left for going back home right on time. It was a great day!!!

Loved this adventure today in car 114! It was beautiful scenery. Our tour guide was cool, he properly introduced himself, but of course I can’t recall his name (I’m sorry.) I was able to sit next to some good peeps and ‘Hawk Eye Betty’ was even quick enough to spot us a deer! I will say they properly say to arrive 45min early to pick up your ticket and it was spot on! Even thought the line was long, it didn’t take long to get the ticket from the prepaid ticket window. I deducted a star due to web link to see parking was “not found.” Thankfully I found a lot to park in nearby, but the info is not marked well. They caution you to be careful because some parking is limited to 3 hrs, so I could not tell if I was fixing to waste $10 to park. I was fortunate enough to have a couple walk up that used the lot yesterday and was able to confirm it was all day parking. I have tried to save the parking info, so maybe I can request that the web link be fixed to show you parking options and to put a sign on/near the parking kiosk that it is day parking, but I am going to include info in pics. The lot I used which was great is right by tracks and stores: Blue Ridge Bird Seed Company and M. Main Farmhouse market. The train ride is worth it in the open car! It was cold today and it was very tolerable with appropriate attire.

We and others were a bit disappointed to learn that the train does not go up the mountain or through any valleys. In fact, for the majority of the ride, one side of the train has nothing to look at because there is a berm right up to the rail. The other side has a view of a small river the majority of the ride. It is a very pretty view, but a lot of it is more about seeing nice homes along the river than seeing fall foliage. Also, for what it's worth, the train only goes 10 mph. It's a 26-mile round trip ride on flat ground. No hills. We rode the Premier car, and it was comfortable. The attendant was nice. The town surrounding the train station is very charming. A strip full of restaurants and shops. I will be back to experience all of that. All in all, the train experience was a little underwhelming for me.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our trip on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway was absolutely incredible! We booked Coach Car C for the 2-hour ride, and it was such a perfect choice. Sitting in the open cart added a whole new level to the experience—the crisp fall air, the colorful leaves, and the peaceful sounds of the train made it unforgettable. The views along the route were stunning, and stopping at the Georgia/Tennessee border was such a neat highlight! It’s the perfect outing for anyone wanting to soak in some fall beauty and small-town charm. Highly recommend! 🚂🍁

I visited the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway with my service dog Toothless. He has never experienced a train, so it was a training day for him. Lots of new sounds (many of them scary), steep stairs to board (handicap lift available), so many new smells, and crowed with lots of new people! He did a fantastic job learning and listening. The staff from check in to helping me find my lost key fob was fantastic! Jeff was our guide for the Express Ride and had some good "dad jokes" and a fish story!. The weather was crisp and the fall colors on full display! Such an amazing experience and history of this rail line! We will definitely be back!

Fantastic experience! Went on October 30, the day before Halloween. We opted for the enclosed premier seating coach. I had not paid attention to the details of what was included in the ticket price, but drinks, snacks, souvenir photo and a very good quality tote bag are part of the deal. My mother and I were lucky and wound up in forward facing seats on the scenic side of the train for the journey to McCaysville/Copperhill. Lovely ride up there. We had researched some options for lunch ahead of time, but ate a decent breakfast in Blue Ridge GA before we left, so that left the two hour visit open for shopping. I was worried that it would be a challenge to fill two hours, but it went by fast and we got back to the train with 10 minutes to spare. They ask everyone to switch sides for the return trip so that the folks that didn't have the optimum scenic view on the way up would get a chance to enjoy it. I walked back to the concession car for a hot apple cider and saw that the ADA car was completely empty. It is an open air car with benches facing towards the windows. Even though it was quite chilly, I sat there and enjoyed the view while I drank the cider. Heaven on earth! Blue Ridge scenic Railway is a well-run operation with delightful staff in each car. Highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Southern Comfort (Georgia) We’re from Orlando and had heard great things about Southern Comfort, so we had to try it while in Georgia—and it was absolutely worth it! We came in with a party of six, and even though there was about a 20-minute wait, the hostess was amazing—she talked with us the entire time, was super friendly, and made the wait feel like nothing. That first impression really set the tone for the whole experience. Once seated, our server Ashelynn took care of us, and she was absolutely amazing. So attentive, kind, and patient—we can be a little difficult as a group, and she handled us like a pro. Her service made everything smooth and enjoyable. And the food? Incredible. Every single one of us loved our meals. From flavor to presentation, it was comfort food at its best. We left full and happy! If you’re in the area, don’t miss this place. Southern Comfort really lives up to the name in both food and hospitality. We’ll definitely be back next time we’re in town!

Our lunch was so delicious that we went returned the following day for dinner!! Portions are exceptional!! We enjoyed the absolute best fried green tomatoes we have ever had anywhere!!! The accompanying sauce was out of this world tasty. Service was 5 star across the board!! Our meals included the Chicken Bowl with plenty to fill you up boneless and breaded fried chicken breast, 2 fabulous and tasty large slices of meatloaf, biscuits to write home about including the thick warm apple butter side!! We could have spread that apple butter on everything! The real mashed potaoes... oh my goodness, so gooOoOOd. And the veggies were cooked to perfection, especially the collard greens with no sugar added to them! Just the way granny made them. We highly recommend Southern Charm!! Our Hostess was so warmly funny and as delightful as can be. Wish we lived in Blue Ridge Ga! A perfect restaurant for a filling and delicious meal.

Being from south Louisiana, our family is serious about good food. 😄 Since moving to the North Georgia mountains, we’ve been trying to find places that feel like home, and y’all… Southern Charm has been it!!! We’ve been a couple times now and every single dish has been on point. The flavor, the comfort, the hospitality…it’s that real Southern mix we’ve been missing. If you haven’t tried it yet, do yourself a favor and go. 💛🍽️

This reminded me of a big open home inside. We went for dinner and didn't have to wait, but maybe 10 mins and our waitress was awesome. They serve you biscuits with apple butter that's warm and really good! We ordered fried chicken, which was so good, with mashed potatoes and cheese grits that were extra creamy and cheesy, so so good! We also got hamburger steak and a big hamburger with fries. Nice clean bathrooms. Would recommend.

Rum cakes are AMAZING. A little pricy but soooo good. I could've eaten 3 back to back. We got the Tampa Cuban and it was fresh and hot, again super delicious! My son got the smash burger America style and it was honestly a very very juicy great burger. After trying a bite of my son's burger I really had wished I had gotten one. I also bought a papa rella a la carte, as well as this cream cheese type pastry that was flaky and dusted with powdered sugar. All my items were very good, and I would def come back and try more things! I paid around $50 for everything

What an authentic, awesome hole-in-the-wall! We have been on the hunt for good Cuban food, that even resembled our life in Miami a little but, since we moved to GA, and this is it! We stumbled upon it on the way back from vacation and it was a perfect ending to our getaway. We tried a little bit of a lot and it was ALL delicious. The owners and staff are so sweet too. They talk to you like you are family. Love, love this place.

The Rum Cake Lady was truly the highlight of our North GA mountain getaway. We took the scenic train and had a two hour layover to explore and eat. We made the best decision to eat here. We’re from Tampa Bay and ordered the Tampa cuban. It was the best Cuban we ever had in our lives and the rum cake was absolutely delicious! Met the Rum Cake Lady. She was the sweetest! Service was great! Atmosphere was fun and happy! I’m going to plan another trip here just to go to The Rum Cake Lady because it’s just that good!

Wow, been coming to Blue Ridge for consistently for 3 years 2 to 3 times a year and have never tried this. My friends at Smokey’s have told me time and time again you have to go. So today, along with my son who has also never been we decided to try something together we have never tried. And boy oh boy are we glad we did. Truth be told we have always been loyal to a west coast Cuban bakery called Porto’s so our standards were high. And rum cake lady lived up to the competition. The Cuban was well gone in 3.6 flat. And the guava and cheese in my opinion is better than Porto’s (no photo taken) it was gone before we even thought about it. The potato ball aka papas rellenas was a very good comparison. All in all, I’m sad I have only now decided to try this little slice of rum cake heaven, however, it will now become a staple visit on every trip. Thank you for a delicious experience.

We lived in Tampa and fell in love with Cuban food and was so happy to see the Rum Lady in the north Georgia mountains! We had a steak sandwich and a Cuban and they were the best we’ve ever had! Flan and coffee are amazing! Had to get a rum cake to go! Sweetest ladies at counter! We’ll be back… tomorrow 😍

My experience at Rum Cake Lady Cuban Restaurant was great! I stopped there on my Blue Ridge train ride. The service as well as the food was excellent. I ordered their vegetarian bowl with their vegan meat. The bowl was fresh and tasty and I was glad to have added the vegan meat!

I got several items: yuca fries(recommended), bistec sandwich, ropa vieja bowl, rum cake, guava pastry(recommended), and guava flan. It was my first time trying this restaurant. Customer service was okay. The only disappointing item were the plantains. They were burnt and hard, inedible I had to throw them away.

I wanted to go back in and tell the ladies how good the gluten free rum cakes, gluten free salted caramel cheesecake and gluten free sandwich was. my mind was blown. somehow we have never been here after visiting for 5 years but this was my favorite place we went this weekend and I will always be back!! the ladies inside were also so nice!

Polish restaurant
Margo's Gourmet Polish Kitchen is a cozy spot in Blue Ridge that offers a taste of authentic Eastern European cuisine. The restaurant exudes a homey atmosphere, reminiscent of dining at your grandmother's house. Margo herself prepares traditional Polish dishes from scratch, including kielbasa rolls, pierogi platters, and schnitzel.
Amazing handmade polish food. The pyzy in mushroom gravy and goulash were sooo delicious. The cooks were super nice too and gave us a beer while we waited for our food. If you are in the mood for homemade polish food made with care, stop in. Updated review: we ate here again 2 years later and it was just as great as the first time. The owner actually opened the closed restaurant to serve us and it was the highest quality meal we ate while in blue ridge. Everything is homemade and so delicious. Definitely recommend this place.

Every visit to Blue Ridge is incomplete without a stop at Margo's Polish Restaurant. Their authentic offerings never fail to impress. The beers are not only generously sized but also incredibly refreshing. The kielbasa is flavorful and cooked to perfection, while the schnitzel paired with spatzle is an absolute delight. Each dish feels genuine and is consistently delicious. Whenever we're in Blue Ridge, we find ourselves returning to Margo's time and time again. A well-deserved five stars for an outstanding culinary experience!

Incredible food! Very authentic Polish food. The waitress is so cute and sweet, the chef is her husband, and the atmosphere is very quiet and sweet. My pirogies were so amazing (get the mixed plate to try them all!) that we left with frozen potato and cheese pirogies and some kielbasa to take home!

Quaint little place but legit authentic Polish food. My wife knows more about Polish food than I do, but I loved every bite of her plate and mine. She thought everything she put in her mouth was delicious as well. The next time we're in blue ridge, we will definitely be back. We definitely want to try more of the menu and explore other delicious flavors and tastings.

My boyfriend was looking for authentic polish pierogies. The place that we found was tucked away in the town of Blue Ridge GA. The store was quaint, and we were seated immediately. The menu had several authentic Polish dishes along with some familiar Barvarian German foods. The service was quick, and the plates provided more than we could eat in one sitting. The leftovers made for a great second meal later that night. We ordered a variety of pierogies, glummkies, sausage, spatzel and their red cabbage is out of this world.

MooBears Ice Cream & Hotdogs Trackside

Ice cream shop
If you're looking for a delightful way to cool off, MooBears Ice Cream & Hotdogs Trackside is the perfect stop in both Blue Ridge and Ellijay. This charming spot boasts an impressive selection of over 20 hand-dipped ice cream flavors, including classic favorites like chocolate and vanilla, as well as unique seasonal offerings such as Key Lime Pie in summer and Carrot Cake during Easter. But that's not all!
Friendly staff and ice cream on a warm spring day, what more can you ask for? Some hot dogs of course, wait there is that too. Being located steps from where the blue ridge scenic railway railcars load and unload you can’t pass up in this special treat. Quick and easy to order and ice cream is well……. Always good. Friendly service is what you’ll find at the establishment, on the other side it appears they also have plenty of the blue ridge gelrgia trinkets and wine tasting too. All this bundled up in a quaint old rail car, how fitting!

Cool Little Spot for Tasty Ice Cream Overall: cool little spot in downtown Blue Ridge to grab a yummy ice cream. They have a bunch of tasty flavors and also sell other items like hot dogs and sodas. Neat interior. Ice Cream: Top notch ice cream with a ton of flavors. Got 3 cones for the kids and one double scoop for adults to share. Got a Rainbow Sherbet waffle cone, Strawberry waffle cone, and Chocolate cake cone. Adult cone had a chocolate chip dough and praline pecan double scoop. Vibe/Interior: it is a very tight space, especially with Covid protocols in place. They make it work, but it can get really crammed when it's crowded. Service: very friendly and helpful even though it was starting to get slammed. Summary: Neat Spot for a Cone of Refreshing Ice Cream

All of the pictures listed on here of a walk-in ice cream parlor are inaccurate. This place is actually a walk-up ice cream trailer that's made to look like a rail car. Aside from that, we got a frozen lemonade that wasn't even slush, it was just regular lemonade.. The ice cream itself was just mediocre, not really flavorful.

Sue's Burgers proudly boasts of having the best burgers in town, and it seems that many agree with this claim. Customers have left glowing testimonials online, local best-of lists consistently feature Sue's, and even random people on the street recommend it for a great burger. The restaurant is particularly renowned for its crispy, crinkly fries and delectable desserts. The portions are generous, making it a perfect spot for hearty eaters.
Absolutely delicious. My husband loves a burger. These are some of the best. Meat is flavorful. The bun is so fresh and perfectly toasted. Tater tots or fries....tough choice. Nothing to complain about. This place is delicious!
Nancy K — Google review
I thought long & hard before writing this review. We have visited Sue’s & loved it for the past 3 years. The food is always fresh & delicious. We visited two times during our recent trip. Once for dinner & once for lunch. We ordered various burgers, fries, onion rings, fried pickles & tater tots. The fries were our least favorite side. There is signage in the restaurant about not videoing or photographing the staff. Totally understable. There was an elderly man over 60 sitting at his table & he took a photo of the restaurant (not focused on the staff ) & the younger lady yelled at him from behind the counter what are you taking a picture of. He replied the restaurant so he could show his friends he had been there. She told him no pictures were allowed but if he had asked he would have been allowed. Her tone was just rude & it was concerning to me. I get it if you don’t want pictures but maybe change the sign to no photography inside what so ever so there’s no misunderstanding. If it had been me yelled I would have left. I felt sorry for the customer. Obviously you can see from my post I took a photo the night we visited at dinner to have a correct copy of the menu (posted). No one said anything to me when I took my photo & obviously I took photos of my food - which after the yelling at the customer I was nervous to do @ the lunch visit.

The burger was the best ! The garlic salad ..was not. See pictures! The burger was as everyone says perfect amazing delightful. That is what they are known for. The pimento cheese does the south proud- the garlic salad I was given had zero flavor....maybe an off day and I was told it would be tossed in a homemade garlic dressing...it was flooded. Everything pictured included a coke and water will run about $42 - go enjoy get a 🍔read the story of the start its cute also pictured.

Absolutely 💯 best burger in Blue Ridge! Huge burger with all the fixings. Small place, nothing fancy. But, you will truly enjoy the food. Oh, and the onions rings are pretty good too.

Have to give Sue's a big 5, would give higher if I could. I had the Mountain Man burger with bacon, onion rings and all the fixin's. Burger was absolutely awesome. They are the best burger place around and totally affordable. We also got the chilli cheese fries and they were delicious. Staff was informative and friendly. Highly highly recommend if you are on Blue Ridge. Go NOW 😂! Seriously great place!

Great place. Hand pattied burgers. My wife had the mountain burger and I had the double cheeseburger and a hotdog all the way. Too much to eat. They were off the chain. Tons of people coming in, local and visitors. We will definitely be back when we come to Blue Ridge.
Luther T — Google review
I wish I could give 3.5 stars, because I feel like that's a more accurate representation of how I would rate food at Sue's. I'm putting 4 stars because it was an overall good experience. It was a slow time when we went around 4pm, so the wait wasn't long at all. Fries: These are very basic frozen cafeteria fries. They arrived hot and crunchy, but have no flavor at all. Coleslaw: No one we know likes it. It's actually some of the worst I've ever had. Tastes like yellow sugar-water. They can keep that recipe secret. Burgers: The burgers are good and tasty. Ours were a little overdone, but still juicy. I would not say this is one of the best burgers I've ever had. Especially for the price - my cheeseburger was $5.99 which is ok, but to add a drink, those tasteless fries and the worst coleslaw ever makes it $10.99! However, I can understand why they might be highly rated in a small area like Blue Ridge since there aren't many other options. There is also a selection of cake. I didn't have any, but they looked pretty good! As I read in the other reviews, it's true that the employees could be better and faster at cleaning tables. We were there about an hour. People came and went, but none of the tables were wiped down during our whole time there. The employees weren't busy. It is cash only, but there's an ATM on site for a fee. I'm not sure why, but there's a dessert case of beanie babies on the right when you walk in the door... I just thought that was funny lol
Medina — Google review
The place is clean and very nice inside. The staff was very friendly as well. I had the mountain BBQ burger and it was good but needed more BBQ sauce than they put on. My son gave his plain cheeseburger a 9 out of 10. The coleslaw is good but a lot more vinegary than I would like. More like a pickle than traditional coleslaw but again still tastes pretty good. Overall I'll definitely come back

Southern restaurant (US)
Harvest On Main is a top-rated restaurant in Blue Ridge, Georgia, offering upscale Southern cuisine in a cozy and rustic setting. The restaurant is known for its farm-to-table approach, using the freshest local ingredients such as grass-fed beef, seasonal vegetables, and locally sourced trout. Owned by chef Danny Mellman and Michelle Moran, the restaurant exudes a warm mountain lodge ambiance with river stone steps and hunting decor.
Had a very pleasant time. Dinner was good and portion sizes was bigger then expected. Was able to get us in 25 minutes before our reservation. Will come back when back in Blue Ridge. There are many other options i would love to try

Great restaurant. Loved the interior design (the chairs!). The restaurant staff were nice and welcoming (our server went back and forth multiple times to check with the kitchen and bar about the gluten free options, we appreciated it a lot!) We had the local trout and the duck breast, both options gluten free and both delicious. We wanted also an appetizer that was labeled gluten free on the menu but it turned out they changed the recipe so it wasn’t gluten free anymore (maybe some updates on the menu would be great). I celebrated there my 30th birthday, and they were nice to offer me on the house a piece of cheesecake, appreciated the gesture! (They don’t have gluten free desserts though, in case you’re looking for these options). We also got two non-alcoholic cocktails but we thought they were a little bit pricey for what they offered! Overall though we had a good experience!

The food was amazing! Highly recommend the trout with sweet potato mash. Our waiter (Jameson) was also super friendly and personable which made our interactions enjoyable! However, when we first arrived the gentlemen (Jeff) that sat us made us feel like we were at Dick’s Last Resort. He came across rude and blunt, making jokes and taking them much further than comfortable.

We had hot & spicy meatballs with a habanero peach glaze for appetizer. They were so good, a little crisp/caramelized on the outside, and the glaze was very tasty. Husband had trout with sweet potatoes & green beans. I had Cajun shrimp pasta. Both dishes were great. We had no wait, the restaurant was rustic with nice exposed beams, and wait staff was attentive. We did struggle some with flies buzzing around.
Melody M — Google review
Nice place with a great environment. Great service with mediocre food. The mashed sweet potatoes were fluffy and delicious, but the green beans had an odd flavor and the trout could have used a little more seasoning. Their special root beer and butter pecan cream soda was amazing.

We went for lunch on Sept 12, 2025. I really loved the cabin/lodge atmosphere. It was hard to decide what to eat. The menu descriptions made everything sound so good. Our waitress was super awesome, though I've forgotten her name. The food was completely amazing.

UPDATE 10/31/2025 We had lunch for the second time today and Harvest On Main did not disappoint! We couldn’t pass up having the Bang Bang Salmon again. It was actually just as good as the first time back in July. The Salmon was cooked to perfection and the seasoning and sauce are so good. We added some toasted bread to our order and that made the meal perfect. Our waitress today was Danielle and she was very attentive! July 2025Great ambiance and even better food. We ordered the Sampler Platter which has a great variety. The only complaint was the hummus was a bit bland. We also both ordered the Salmon with rice and coleslaw. The portions were large and the flavors were wonderful. The waitstaff were attentive and helpful. We will definitely be back!!!

Harvest is and continues to be one of the best restaurants in Blue Ridge. We sat downstairs at a table in the bar. It’s such a beautiful restaurant inside. The staff are all friendly and ready to make your experience wonderful. I usually get the salmon BLT, it’s always perfectly cooked! My fiancé got the meatloaf and loved it. All of the stars! We love you Harvest! Thanks for making our vacations so memorable.

For day 2, we recommend exploring the north side side of town. Start the day off with EXPEDITION:BIGFOOT! The Sasquatch Museum, then wind down and take it easy by the time you get to Bear Claw Vineyards & Winery, Inc.. All together, your day would be filled with about 8 hours of non-stop fun.

Very nice exhibit. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. The exhibit was very well organized and had MANY interesting things to see and learn about. They do allow you to take pics and the price was very reasonable, they also offer a military discount which I always appreciate. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars was because it was a lot smaller than I expected. The whole exhibit could easily be seen in under an hour. Still, it was fun for our whole family from a 4 year old to a 40 year old. I would definitely recommend if you need a roadside attraction.

We did not buy tickets in advance on a random week day.

I will start out by saying that I am not a believer. At all. But my kids and relatives wanted to go see this place and we have passed it on the highway about 20 times over the last 10 years. It was fairly easy parking and the people on the inside were very kind and ticket prices Were decent. The quality of the decorations for the entire establishment is excellent. All of the old camping gear as well as the old records and so forth are very interesting and I did like that. Some of the stories are fun to read and overall it’s very interesting hearing about how the stories have remained the same over the years. The section on the native American accounts of Bigfoot were most interesting to me. I had not heard anything about that. It’s fun it’s quirky and definitely something to do with friends. If you’re just looking for something you will talk about later.

My family and I stopped at the museum on the way out of town. It was cool. Very friendly staff. Great exhibits all though they really could use an update. I would give a 5 star rating but the only negative thing I could say is their video. It’s outdated and terrible and looks like it’s from the 70’s. It’s a missed opportunity by the museum to really make an impression on skeptics and guests that are open to it. They should have testimonies of experiences from people in the local area. As well as updated current compelling information on these creatures. My family and I couldn’t sit through it all it was so bad. Other than that worth a visit. Friendly staff and cool merch.

Located in Blue Ridge, Georgia, the Swan Drive-In Theatre & Diner is a popular spot that has been screening movies since 1955. It is one of the few remaining drive-in theaters in the state and offers a nostalgic experience for moviegoers. The establishment features a full concession stand with a variety of snacks, including funnel cakes and fried Oreos.
This place is a fantastic blast from the past! First rate staff , great food, and reasonable prices. They show first run movies and your car radio provides the sound ,much better than those old box speakers from back in the day. Great for families and date night. Five stars all around!!

Such a fun place! Great, family friendly movies and good food! It's a great option for parents of babies and toddlers that want to be able to experience movies, without the horror of trying to wrangle a toddler inside a theater. They have a lawn area in front of the screen so all the kids can play and you can set up chairs to sit there. Prices are very reasonable, staff is super friendly and they even have a car hop service after the movie starts. Cannot recommend this place enough! I only gave it 5 stars because there wasn't an option for 10!

Update: We went back to give it another try and had a much better experience than noted below. In fact, we’ve gone back twice since that review and both times were great. I appreciate the response and hope that in the future the handout/pre show instructions include a notice that the property is non-smoking. (Previous review) I love the idea of the drive-in but smoking ruins the experience every time. Last time the people next to us were smoking weed, this time a chain smoker was sitting directly beside us so unless we wanted to breathe second hand smoke for hours, we had to keep the windows rolled up and deal with the summer heat with no air flow. Make it non- smoking and it would be an excellent experience. They do try to patrol the area for lights on, tailgates too high, etc… which is appreciated. Also the food had been good each time we’ve ordered and the car hops have been very nice.

We love this place. The "greasy spoon" style concession stand is worth the price. The movies are always a good time. Parking is ample and most spots are elevated to ensure good viewing. We have been renting their speaker and for something so small, it sounds great. This place take me back to my childhood, where my family would take us on the weekends. Drive Ins like this are a dying breed and deserve to be supported.

We love the SWAN! We pop in for a movie every time we visit Blue Ridge! We saw Lilo and Stitch on this trip. The kids all loved it. There is a huge selection of food and snacks at the concession stand and it’s even more convenient now because they have car hops! My one recommendation (if I had to have one) would be to charge per car and not per person however I do understand business operating expenses and what the Swan is doing seems to be working! Keep up the great work!

We had a great time at the Swan Drive-In Horrorthon! First time ever at this drive-in. Cannot say enough about the staff and ownership. Our battery died about 3 movies in and one of the staff was there in minutes to jump our truck and let us run for 30 minutes to allow our battery enough power to leave at the end!! The food was great and so much better than we ever expected! I haven’t been to a drive-in for about 40 years and it took me right back to my youth. This surpassed my expectations. We live about an hour and a half away, and we will be back for more! Hope you all have another 70 years entertaining us at your facility!!

10 out of 10 experience! A must go! We watched both movies, the popcorn was delicious - we ate the big bucket! It was a cool evening, rainy. It didnt matter. We took blankets and snuggled under them.and we could still see the movie through the rain. We reclined our seats, enjoyed the snacks, and had an absolute lovely time!

I went here for a girls night out. It was my first time. We watched a scary move marathon from 7pm to 5am. Their were breaks I between movies to go to the bathroom and get food.It was great. They have consesions, plenty of bathrooms and it was clean. I will definitely be returning with the family. You can bring chairs, a inflatable mattress or just sit in your car. Great experience.

The brewery, owned and operated by two retired beer enthusiasts, offers a selection of hand-crafted ales and beers in small batches. Visitors can enjoy the cozy taproom attached to the brewery where they can sample eight different beers on tap and engage in friendly conversations with the amiable owners.
This is one of the perfect places to go to with your family, friends, even big groups. They have an inside area to sit and an outside area. There is a cigar truck and a hot dog truck that even has chili cheese fries, great bar food!! They also have outside games like corn hole, the Large Jenga, and other fun stuff going on! Restrooms are very clean. A big plus for me. Large selection of beers. We are locals from Murphy, NC and brought our daughter and best friend who were in town from Florida. It is one of their favorite places.

Cute place with good beer variety. Tons of seating and parking. They have a food truck that comes periodically, but just pretzels besides that. Dog friendly. Staff are very friendly.

Grumpy Old Men Brewing is a great spot! The beers were really good — lots of flavor and a nice variety to choose from. The food was just okay and portions were on the smaller side, but the overall atmosphere and drinks made it worth the visit. Definitely a fun place to hang out and try some great local brews!

A great, relaxed vibe with good beer options. Dogs are allowed, so it's fun to see the pups. There is a shaded outdoor space where we drank. We stated with a flight of 4 beers, and settled on a Choco Blanco wheat ale which they also have in 6-pack cans to go. Fun signs and merch; restrooms; free parking. The food truck was closed for the day, but it looked like a good menu when open.

Great atmosphere and the staff is super kind! The IPAs are a bit different than most. They have a hot dog stand outside. Only a 4 because not my type of beers i’m kind of heavy for what I’m used to. I wish they had more food options for being remote …so check them out yourself!

First timers! We celebrated our anniversary here and I must say,.it was everything and more. Lily(I’m not sure how she spells her name)was the ABSOLUTE best waitress. She was friendly,knowledgeable,attentive and just on point. The food…was delicious! From the bread to the drinks,I literally have zero complaints. We had the stuffed salmon and the meatloaf. I highly recommend Black Sheep if you’re in Blue Ridge.

My second visit from Chattanooga for a BDay meal. After our 2.5-hour drive, we two sat in the main structure in a perfect corner table. The Brunch menu was surprisingly limited. The soup of the day was leek and tomato and sounded great. I asked for a virgin Bloody Mary...$5!...the same price as one WITH Alcohol...really...Typically $3.00 in most other locations...NEVER MIND! "Try our amazing homemade Cinnamon rolls. Can I order one? "NO, only a minimum of 6!"...NEVER MIND! I ordered Huevo's Rancheros and my friend Crab Cake Benedict, with a stuffed mashed potato...I asked about a cup of soup..."NO...only offered as a $14 main!"...NEVERMIND! Both entrees arrived and were beautiful and were tasty but arrived luke-warm. The shallow cup of coffee, also luke warm, as was its refill, so only finished half. Dessert was an excellent GA Peach Cobbler. Service was good but the over-riding memory is a limited menu and them not able...or willing...to satisfy our choices. MY suggestion: scan the menu before making a reservation.

We absolutely loved the vibe at Black Sheep. We went without a reservation and they still treated us amazingly well — super friendly and welcoming staff. The weather was perfect, so we chose to sit outside, and it turned out to be the best decision. The burger I ordered was absolutely incredible — juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. We also got an appetizer (can’t remember the name, but it was delicious). They had a happy hour, so we tried a couple of Bloody Marys, and they were seriously some of the best I’ve ever had. The whole experience was just perfect — great food, great drinks, and a relaxed, classy atmosphere. Definitely one of the must-visit spots in Blue Ridge!

Me and my husband went on a kid free date night here and it was absolutely amazing! Our server was the sweetest, every bit of food we got was delicious and full of flavor! The rolls were the best we’ve had, the smoked oysters was beyond worth it, the 16 oz ribeye steak was cooked perfect (medium), with red skinned mashed potatoes. We shared a plate and it was enough for us to be satisfied. We ended up ending with their Georgia peach cobbler with ice cream and wow it was amazing! We had a wonderful night here! If you want a nice date night come here!!

LOVE! We went for dinner and then Saturday brunch. Both times were excellent. Highly recommend. The indoor dining is SO quaint-in an old house with interesting history explained on the menu. 2 nice bars, one indoor-fancier, one “outdoor in screened in porch w/TV-sports bar-ish. Outdoor area not covered and outdoor area covered. You can be dressy or not, but nice is better. Food all good. In a very pretty nature setting with big trees, etc. In downtown Blue Ridge.

Now, this is just my opinion, but the vibe felt a little off the night I went. Think Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy in Life when they just wanted a slice of pie—that kind of energy. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I didn’t feel especially welcomed. Maybe it was the crowd, maybe just the mood that evening. I went for my birthday, hoping for something memorable. The restaurant itself is tucked inside a charming old house near downtown Blue Ridge, with dim lighting, exposed brick, and an upscale rustic feel—lots of dark wood, wine bottles lining the walls, and candlelit tables that give off a cozy, romantic atmosphere. You can tell they’ve put a lot of thought into the aesthetic. Reservations & Parking: Definitely make a reservation and arrive early if you want decent parking. The lot is small and fills up quickly, especially on weekends. Food & Presentation: For appetizers, we ordered the brie and a crab cake. Unfortunately, both were disappointing. The texture was off, the smell was off, the look was off—and the taste was the worst of all. The baked brie, while nice in concept, fell flat. It reminded me of the inside of a ham and cheese Hot Pocket—missing that creamy, buttery melt that good brie should have. My duck with sweet potatoes was alright—beautifully plated, but it could’ve used more seasoning or depth of flavor. The presentation was top-notch, though—picture-perfect, like something straight out of a magazine. My friend ordered the meatloaf and wasn’t impressed either. Service & Atmosphere: We sat at the bar, which had a more laid-back vibe than the main dining room. The bartenders were friendly and attentive, and Ashley in particular stood out—she had a great attitude and made us feel comfortable despite the overall tone of the evening. Final Thoughts: The Black Sheep definitely has a beautiful setting and stellar presentation, but for me, the warmth of the atmosphere and the flavor of the food didn’t quite live up to the visuals. It also didn’t seem like a space that embraced much diversity in its clientele or energy. Maybe it was just an off night, but it left me wanting more connection—and a lot more flavor.

Had an incredible breakfast at Black Sheep Restaurant in Manassas, Virginia! I went with four friends, and we all loved our food, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was very cool and welcoming, with a fun vibe that makes you want to stay and relax. If you’re looking for one of the best breakfast spots in Northern Virginia, definitely check out Black Sheep. Highly recommend!

Yo, hit up Black Sheep, fine dine scene, Made that res early, ‘cause the slots were lean. Couple days out, not much left to choose, So plan ahead, or you’ll sing the blues. 🎶 Started with sips — basil martini dream, Spicy marg kicked in with a limey gleam. 🍸 Bread rolled out, salt-pepper crown, I don’t even eat bread, but I got down. Then the lamb lollipops, glaze so right, Crispy onions drizzled, flavor took flight. 🍖 I said “pretty good,” but Fletch jumped in, Like, “Nah, they were delicious,” with that grin. 😏 Shared a peach-feta-prosciutto mix, Light, fresh, perfect salad fix. 🥗 Dressing balanced, not too bold, Every bite a story told. Then came the duck, crisp outside, Juicy center — flavor collide. 🦆 Laid on sweet potato puree gold, Big plates here, so split, be bold. Shoutout Rae, our server queen, New to the team, but kept it clean. 👑 Top-tier service, handled it tight, Black Sheep — date night done right.

Serenity Garden Cafe, located at 657 East Main Street in Blue Ridge, GA, has been serving homemade breakfast, lunch, and dinner since 2001. The cafe offers a relaxed atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating options as well as takeout services. Guests can enjoy a variety of American dishes such as sandwiches, soups, omelets, and Southern biscuits and gravy while sipping on house wine or craft beer.
We were blessed to stop last year with one of our sisters and met Joe and Mom Marilyn!! So when my twin sister and I had the opportunity to stop back in to see if Mom and Joe were there we were thrilled not only seeing "Mom" but she asked where the other sister was! Joe was out recuperating from an illness. "Mom" said he'd be back Sunday (unfortunately we had to go home on Saturday). If anyone wants to go to a quite family restaurant for breakfast and lunch (not sure about dinner) we highly recommend you stop by. They're on Main St in Blue Ridge, Ga. There're waitresses were new to us but "Mom" was still bringing plates to the tables and checking to make sure everyone was happy! Speaking of HAPPY! Your plates are so full they offer to-go.boxes!! Great food! Great prices! And the most wonderful people you will ever have the pleasure of dining with! We love y'all "Mom" and will see you as soon as we can make another trip your way!

The restaurant was cute with that small town/country vibe and our server was amazing. I personally hate leaving bad reviews, but I have to be honest. My daughter and her friend ordered waffles and after they both said they tasted bad my friend and I took a bite. They had a bad almost sour taste. At first I thought maybe the butter that was on the table was bad. The server replaced my friend’s daughter’s waffle, but my daughter didn’t want another one and I honestly don’t blame her. The new waffle was good. The cook used new batter. The waffle was removed from my bill. The other check had the waffle on it and she was fine with that since the new waffle was edible, but they definitely could have removed the $1 shared plate feee for the trouble. I had a bacon egg and cheese biscuit that was delicious!!

Went for breakfast at 10:20 was not even looked at or greeted until about 10:50 and there were only about 4 customers in the cafe. We were second couple in line. Two waitresses and the young one was rude to the folks standing in line in front of us. It should have told us something! Told them she couldn’t take their drink order until she got back and she couldn’t take their drink order because she is a “hostess” yet we were seated and the waitress who seated us took our drink order and brought it back before those folks. I felt bad for them. Our waitress (older early 50’s) was FANTASTIC! Took our order and it took over an hour and I had to ask for it. I got the reply “it will be up in just a minute” we have worked 7 days a week over 12 hours a day. I don’t know why they told us that maybe for an excuse for waiting so long! Anyway the food was mediocre and wasn’t worth near $70 for 3 breakfast platters and 3 drinks. Let’s not forget the smell of some really musty candles! If you have sensitive eyes or smells this is not for you!

Cute place! Service was a struggle, but the food was abundant and delicious. The pancake is plate size. You could feed 4! We got eggs and an omlette and it was cooked perfectly. The bacon portion was huge too. The vegy omlette was loaded with perfectly cooked vegys. I couldn't finish, but it was so good. I recommend getting there by 8 or 830 if your taking the 10am train ride.

I was here yesterday with my mother. The place is so confused, is it a candle store a kids toy shop or a cafe? The pancakes were not great! Yes they are large but they were extremely heavy and cake like. The bacon was cheap! Hash browns were decent but overall the food was lesser quality than a Waffle House Breakfast. Whilst I understand potentially charging a small amount for a glass of water but $2.75? I wouldn’t recommend using this establishment, there are other better places to eat in Downtown Blue Ridge.

Nice little cafe in the center of Blue Ridge where the service was quick and friendly. There was a nice selection on the menu but I thought the prices were a little high. The food was delicious and fresh. I had a half chicken salad sandwich and the soup of the day which was cream of squash and it was the best part of the meal. My friend had a Philly cheese sandwich with fries and she loved it. I tasted the fires and they were yummy. There were stuffed animals and candles for sale and the proceeds from them went to an animal sanctuary. The only problem I could see was parking was difficult and limited. There were some parking lots available in walking distance for a fee. I would return for a meal.

Bear Claw Vineyards & Winery, Inc. offers a laid-back atmosphere and stunning views in Blue Ridge, GA, just 30 minutes from Downtown Ellijay. The vineyard provides a variety of activities such as lounging by the fire pit or playing games like corn hole. It is known for its high-quality wine and relaxed aesthetic. Visitors can enjoy generous pours during wine tastings and take advantage of the family and pet-friendly environment with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors.
From the moment we arrived, the experience was incredible! My wife booked us a tour, and we were greeted with beautifully prepared boxes of fruit, cheese, and meats, along with elegant wine glasses that set the tone for the day. Our tour guide was amazing—warm, engaging, and genuinely passionate about her work. She took the time to share her journey with us, which made the experience feel personal and memorable. We laughed, sipped fantastic wines, laughed some more, and even made a few new friends along the way. If you’re ever in Blue Ridge, this winery is a must-visit. The experience was well worth it, and we’ll definitely be back!

Visited on a Saturday around 3PM. It was very close to our cabin near downtown Blue Ridge. However, It wasn’t what we were expecting. It’s more like a bar where you can order a flight to taste various wines while there. There are a few different options for wine flights. We didn’t see a wine tasting room or designated area where we could try each pour individually. I would come back for the music and atmosphere. We took some amazing photos while walking around the vineyard. Note it’s a covered patio and uncovered outdoor seating. Not sure how that fares in the winter.

The GRIZZLY BEAR TASTING was a good deal to try their wine out. They have other options. They had a food truck out back and small snack options inside. Live music sometimes and overall a good place to hang, drink and take a walk outside. These pictures are from March 2025. 4/5 would recommend!

Bearable Winery is such a lovely spot! The scenery is beautiful, and they have fun games—perfect for both kids and adults. Live music adds to the relaxing vibe, and you can try a flight of reds or whites, which is a great way to sample their wines without committing to a full bottle. Even with a smaller selection, it was a wonderful experience to unwind, play some games, and enjoy the outdoors!

Excellent service and the bluegrass music was great and fitting for the environment. The atmosphere was friendly and beautiful. Tons of seating and you can walk through the vineyards. Several families and couples. Lots of games and things for the kids to do. There was a wine tour going on that looked very nice. Everything about it was wonderful. The reason for the only three stars was the wine. The wine was good, don't get me wrong. We got the taster with six wines for $28. Reasonable price. The four white wines were okay. One of them was excellent. Definitely get a Treehouse when you go. Fantastic Chardonnay. Speaking of treehouse, there's a treehouse on site. It is for guests only but it's adorable. Back to the wines... The two reds with the taster were somewhat flavorful but seemed very thin. If you're not a red wine drinker you may really like these. For a red wine drinker, they were very thin and watery with little body. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely go back again, especially for the Treehouse Chardonnay!

When in Blue Ridge, Three Sisters Fudge is always a mandatory stop for me! The staff are always kind and friendly, and they don't pressure you to buy anything. My favorite fudge is the Tiger Butter!

Friendly staff is a pleasant change to what the world has become accustomed to these days so that was nice. I’ll start with saying I know nothing about fudge and the making of said fudge, I do know a tasty treat when I see one though. They say it’s made with real cream and real butter i am guessing that is what makes the fudge good fudge? Plenty of ice cream choices as well. This places location is the best spot in all of blue ridge also so that helps. We will return, and maybe next time I’ll try the milkshake.

This place is incredible! Victor was our waiter and his wife Keyla what is our incredible hostess. Both were very very friendly. There was a wait so we had a few drinks from the bar and they were amazing. They carry a local drink from Reese's that was really tasty. We ordered the hangover burger and the big sexy burger and they were both some of the best burgers we've had. And we're not tater tot fans but they're tater tots are really crispy and wonderful. I think Topps was just the atmosphere of sitting on the front porch and watching the world go by. If you come ask for Victor for your waiter. He is totally laid back and awesome. But I think all the servers were great. Just FYI it is not a hotel it's a restaurant

Seated ourselves at the bar that seats about 10 people. There were two people having a drink. After reviewing a menu, no one said anything to us. There was a female bar tender and female bar porter/ waitress behind the bar; yet not a word. Not even a “one moment, be right with you”. After 10 minutes of zero attention we left. Really a bummer since we were excited to try this place.

We waited 2 hours or more after being told it was 25 minutes. We weren’t drinking so not sure if that made a difference. A nice lady overheard my great granddaughter cry that she was hungry and asked if she’d like some fries. I was thankful for that and she was super quick to bring out hot fresh fries. Then our food finally came out. Our sweet potato fries were dried like they were under the heat lamp too long as well as tater tots on other plates. The sandwiches were soggy and also seemed like they were sitting for a while. We weren’t really excited to try a new place. Very disappointed will be sure and tell everyone who asks for a place in blue ridge, not to go.

I am being generous with a 2 rating. The burgers were good but fries were cold. The problem is the customer service is ATROCIOUS. We were told there was a 15 min wait for food but could get drinks. We waited 30 mins while watching servers scroll on their phones before we even got a hello from Victor. We watched other patrons wait to be greeted and given drinks. Highly disappointed

For a place that specializes in biscuits, it was most mid biscuits I’ve ever had, very dry and the chicken was overcooked. Ambience felt relaxing/chill and the location is nice, however the whole self service setup feels very lazy. Also $9 dollars for a Guinness draft is highway robbery.

Trailer Drive-In is a shiny silver 50s-style diner known for its famous Quickie Country Breakfast. The biscuits are enormous, moist, and tasty. They offer walk-up orders, a drive-thru, and limited outdoor seating. Open at 5:30 am every day except Sundays, it's a great spot to grab breakfast on the go or try their biscuit sandwich. The homemade biscuits and gravy are highly recommended.
Pretty good food for the price. Got the special. Chicken and fries were decent. Cole slaw was unique, purple, and pretty good! They close at 2pm so get there early! Service was as sweet as the tea! Prices listed are not correct. But very reasonable. If I'm in the area, I will be back

Had such a great experience at breakfast this morning that my wife wanted to come back and try their lunch. Both were excellent. The biscuits are homemade and not dense, but flaky. The gravy is actually made there, which is nice - not canned or watery. I probably like breakfast better than lunch, but would gladly come back for either. If you're looking for an inexpensive place to eat where all of the locals go, this is a good start.

The shops across the street will not allow you to use their bathrooms either-they are “out of order” per the DG clerk. We won’t be back, I won’t eat somewhere I can’t wash my hands.

Everything was fine, not spectacular but not horrible. The issue is the prices advertised are incorrect. They weren’t able to correct the prices to those advertised. This has been going on for a while so they are knowingly advertising the wrong prices. When I mentioned it they really didn’t care. It wasn’t just a few dollars more than it should have been, it was $10+. Absurd.

Restaurant
Bojangles is a fast-food chain that offers Southern-inspired cuisine, specializing in fried chicken and biscuits along with signature sides. The establishment is known for its quick service and tasty food, including Cajun chicken biscuits, crispy fried chicken, warm breakfast fries, and soft biscuits. Despite some reports of slow service and confusion at the counter, the overall experience seems positive with clean facilities and friendly staff.
Made from scratch southern style biscuits. If you’re new to the South please give this fast food chain a try to learn about comfort food taste when you’re in a hurry. It’s become a tradition for me to make “Bo-time” a priority when traveling the country daytripping or weekend getaways. Look at the pics to checkout the smothered goodness. And most importantly this location has friendly courteous staff. Stop by for a win win combination.

Lady at counter was very friendly. Ordered 2 piece chicken with fries and slaw with sweet tea. The tea had soured, the fries were old and not edible, the chicken was ok, the mac and cheese was not even warm. The tables were dirty and the only customers was my three and one other lady. Very expensive for the quality of food. The bathrooms were dirty and something sticky all over the door. Seemed like a dirty spot so don't believe I would recommend this place until they get some cleaning done.

We came here when we were in town for a family trip, and wow. It’s the best Bojangles I’ve ever been to. We only got meals with biscuits, so we did not try the chicken or anything. It was absolutely the best biscuits I’ve ever had at bojangles and in my life. The woman in the back making biscuits is making them with love. We had to come back again just to get more and they were just as delicious. The sweet woman at the counter even gave my mom a free biscuit to try because she said she doesn’t typically like them, and she even won her over! Great service, great staff and super clean!!!

They prepared a huge chicken order, chili beans, and cole slaw for a church dinner. They had everything cooked and ready just as I was scheduled to arrive making sure that everything was fresh. They wheeled everything out and made life very easy that day! Great job and great food.

20231211 This might be my first 1 Star review. I waited awhile at the drive thru before I was helped. I ordered #13 3 piece dark meat with mashed potatoes and green beans, and a sweet potato pie. I specifically said leg and thigh after I said #13. Then I waited some more at the pick up window. When I got back to the hotel, I found chicken fingers, no napkins, no fork/spoon. Because they gave me chicken fingers, I had no sauce to eat them with. I never order chicken fingers because it's white meat. Since it's dark and cold, I wasn't going to go back. Thank goodness that my dog ate the chicken fingers, when she doesn't like white meat. It's probably she's hungry.

I was in Blue Ridge for vacation a week ago with my pregnant wife, our daughter, and friends. It was about 10 of us. My group, which included myself, my pregnant wife, our daughter, and several friends, stood in a line of over twelve customers waiting to order for over 20 minutes. One of your employees made direct eye contact with us, then deliberately ignored everyone, walked behind the window, and began making biscuits instead of taking orders. She threw her hands up in frustration and displayed hostile attitude toward paying customers who had done absolutely nothing wrong. As if that were not enough, the manager eventually walked in, headed straight to the back without a single acknowledgment of the customers waiting. He returned nearly ten minutes later only to state that he “just got there,” and continued to ignore the situation. At no point did he attempt to manage the line, offer assistance, or show any professionalism. The line had grown at this point We were treated with blatant disrespect. My pregnant wife was left standing there, uncomfortable and unnoticed. This is not an overstatement: it was one of the worst customer service experiences we have ever encountered anywhere. Your brand prides itself on hospitality, yet this location showed none. It is unacceptable. I would like to know what Bojangles intends to do to address this problem. Employees who treat customers that way should not be representing your company.

Awesome location that moves their line and is properly staffed. Drive through was slammed as well as with inside diners and the lines were moving quite fast.

Mystic Mountain Pizza is a laid-back pizza place with a unique atmosphere, offering thin-crust pizzas and classic video games for entertainment. The restaurant provides online ordering for pickup and delivery of various menu items including pizza, pasta, salad, sandwiches, and wings. With its affordable prices, it has become a popular spot in Blue Ridge. The interior is adorned with quirky decor reminiscent of the 1970s, featuring arcade games and tapestries.
What a fun eclectic place to have pizza. Not only was the pizza delicious with a flavorful crust, sauce and toppings, the whole experience is worth going to see all the fun nostalgic decor. You have got to see the amphibian band that they have on display. I ordered a gluten free crust for my pie and it was fresh and amazing. I did the margarita pizza and added pepperoni. My dining friends did a supreme on regular crust. If you are looking for great brick oven pizza, head to Mystic Mountain Pizza in Blue Ridge.

We had dinner here last night and it was fantastic! We ordered one veggie pizza and one Mediterranean, and both were exceptional — perfectly crispy crust, fresh toppings, and incredible flavor. The service was just as impressive: friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The atmosphere inside had a great vibe, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend if you’re in Blue Ridge!

I loved everything about Mystic Mountain Pizza. The atmosphere is so endearing with all kinds of pizza themed and psychedelic decor. The service is attentive and friendly. We got the meat lovers pizza and they were able to accommodate switching up an ingredient for us. The pizza was amazing with generous toppings and a crust which was crispy on the outside, and tender on the inside. It was cooked to perfection without being burned as some wood fire pizzas are. The sausage on the pizza was the best I've ever had...almost as if it was homemade. It was an all around great meal.
Becky T — Google review
Very gimmicky decorations, that may appeal to some. The breadsticks seemed store bought with extra cheese thrown on top. Marinara was ok. Pizzas were not to my taste because the pizza sauce was on the tart side (toppings were good though), and we ordered a buffalo pizza without blue cheese crumbles and still ended up with it on the pizza. They were nice and apologetic. If you want something besides chain pizzas give this place a try, but overall I won't come again. Edited: I was being generous while making this review, and initially gave it 3 stars, having received the note from the owner despite being polite over the experience as "good!" for saying I wont be coming back, I will change it to a 2 star and also add that the waitress even told the owner who was in the back, chewing on food with an open mouth, that the pizza was supposed to be without Bleu cheese, to which, with no gloves seen every time the cook and owner leaned on the counter, picked off the large chunks of Bleu cheese and told the waitress to send it. The waitress was polite, a quality someone who owns a business should have and obviously based on all of her responses to reviews lacks. Pizza hut serves better pizza which is sad.

Hip little spot for awesome pizza We ordered to pick up pizza. Love the atmosphere in here. So hip, bohemian vibe. Very cool. Nice owners who chatted with us. They’re Billy Strings fans- obvious from their posters in the restaurant My husband is a Billy Strings fan too so they had that in common to chat about. Lol Pizza was good perfect crust. A little crisp around the edges which I love but not soggy at all. But still thin. Very well done They have live entertainment at times but not when we were there.

Food was terrible. Soup over cooked !! I didn’t know you could do that! It was way too thick for chicken and rice…like eating gravy…disgusting. The roast beef wasnt cut thin like a deli…super thick dumped on a soft hoagie instead of baguette as menu listed. I was hoping for a nice deli sandwich. And the pickle even looked gross…like it came off a previous order! look at it!! ick i didnt eat but a bite each and i’m truly not a complainer normally. i would have liked it comp’d …oh, and ice tea was weak.

Amusement center
Escape Blue Ridge offers an exciting and interactive adventure experience with themed rooms that challenge your problem-solving skills. You can choose between the Prohibition room, set in the 1920s, or Black Beard's Brig, a pirate-themed room. It's perfect for families, groups, corporate team-building, or birthday events. The escape rooms are designed to engage all ages and require teamwork to solve riddles within a time limit. Participants can leave at any time if they feel uncomfortable.
Such a fun experience at Escape Blue Ridge! We did the Bigfoot escape room and had an absolute blast. The room was creative, well-designed, and full of clever puzzles that kept us on our toes. The theme was fun and immersive—perfect for all ages. The staff was amazing—super friendly and helpful. They had great timing and knew exactly when to give us a hint without giving too much away. You can tell they really care about making sure everyone has a great time. If you’re in the area and looking for something exciting to do, definitely check this place out. Can’t wait to try another room next time we’re in town!

I hate to say it, but this is the worst escape room experience I've ever had. The people were very friendly, but the puzzle design was terrible and the blatant copywrite infringement was pretty ridiculous. Now, if you want to do an escape room where the person running the room gives you constant "hints" (they tell you exactly what to do) even when you ask them not too, then maybe this is the place for you. But if you're a lover of good puzzles and excellent escape room design where you can solve it with what's available in the room with a bit of thought, and they only give hints when you ASK for one, then I'd say skip this place.
Ashe R — Google review
Our room was great and we had fun. But our coach, didn't pay attention at all when we asked for a clue, she had no idea where we were in the game, and kept asking us, what we had done so far and about part we already solved. Some of the clues didn't connect, like how you would get the answer to the lock was so far out of left field.
Kimberlena G — Google review
Pleasant experience but the Ring of the Lords escape room itself was mediocre. The decorations were average. Puzzles were okay… our biggest rub was timer was set to 50 minutes… we were told this was just for the first room, which implied to us that there was much more to a second (or possibly third) room that required us to make at a quicker pace. So- we asked for clues (and clues were offered) to keep us “on pace”… we got to the second room, which had ONE extremely basic clue and we were done with plenty of time on the clock. This room was a letdown.
Peter L — Google review
Coming from a veteran of 100+ escape rooms, their website is one of the worst I've experienced. It should be easy to go in, see what is available, see the rules for booking, and book your experience. That is not the case here. The experience with the ownership of Escape Blue Ridge has been lackluster and their website is extremely lacking and misleading. Despite the website listing prices for 2-3 players, and despite the booking system giving the option for 2-3 players, you can not book online for two to three players. If you want to find out why, you'll have to contact them and be given an explanation that doesn't align with anything on their website. If their website is updated to accurately reflect their business practices, I'll change my review. Until then, I can not advocate for anyone to give them business. There are a plethora of escape room experiences you can have in Chattanooga and Atlanta with great websites and business practices clearly stated on their websites.

We played the wizard room. The game master wasn’t paying much attention to us, so that might have been one of the problems, also rather then give clues, just told us the solution if we got stuck, and there was only one puzzle that could be worked on at once, but the decorations were pretty and some of the puzzles were cute

He was rude and keep doing the next coffee. It’s a pity that kind of service and lack of respect to the clients of your coffee shop.

Our barista was named Alex and he was so kind and left us with an amazing experience! We ordered an apple cider and a hot chocolate, both exceptionally good. My husband said it was the best hot chocolate he had ever had! It was a perfect stop for such a cold day. The atmosphere was so nice inside the cafe with some seating by the window and cute merchandise around the shop as well.

We tend to grab a coffee here when we visit Downtown Blue Ridge. We love the decor of this little place, it’s hip and trendy. They offer a wide selection of options and today we splurged and even got some dessert. The coffee is ok, and the prices are about normal for touristy location like it’s in. The staff typically seems relatively ambivalent to concept wowing their guests, which oddly stands out to most people we meet in Blue Ridge, but isn’t totally uncommon to some of the establishments on East Main Street. The flow of the ordering and pickup process seems backwards and as they get busy the line that forms creates a bit of a traffic jam, requiring the staff to continue to tell people that the line forms at the other end of the counter, the end that people really can’t get to due to the shops configuration. However, the narrow footprint probably limited the options. 🤷🏼‍♂️ For $7 we expected a more generous slice of coconut cake, but frankly we didn’t need any more. The diet thanks the somewhat stingy slicer dude. Also, the bathrooms were allegedly out of order. We didn’t need them, but the checkout stated to ask for the code before they printed your receipt or they wouldn’t give you the code after, so we asked to be safe. Low supply and high demand kept a steady flow of patrons rolling through as we sat for a couple of minutes. Nothing terribly wrong with the place, it just earns a strong 3 stars from us because no one seemed to make the effort to dazzle us for the extra two stars that were hanging out there for the taking.

First off, this place has such a wide variety of sweets, jams, sauces, puzzles, toys, etc. that you could easily spend well over an hour just walking around. The kids loved it! It’s looks small but it’s long, so the further you go, the more you see. They also had a wonderful selection of handmade soaps (and yes, they all smelled divine). The gentleman (I wish I got his name!) behind the register was so friendly to every single customer upon checkout, sharing fun facts and asking where they were visiting from, just making the experience better. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. My MIL got sick right outside the store on the sidewalk and I ran back in to buy water to clean it up. Upon checkout, I mentioned it and without hesitation, the gentleman said “let me fill some buckets for you!” The other very kind gentleman said “I’ll put these waters back for you.” I made so many trips and each time they just said “take what you need!” They showed us so much kindness. Show these people love and give them your business! They are genuinely kind people!

Great atmosphere, music, food, and service. Love the rock and metal tunes, as well as the metal based food names (like the Danzig Dog, Incubus burger, etc.). I had the Jack Daniel's burger (pictured) which includes a mini-lake of JD glaze sauce and was cooked perfectly and was delicious (hoise cut fries were great too). Whole family enjoyed their food too. Good selections/options for the whole family. Service was excellent- Lauren took great care of us with quick drink refills and anything else we needed. Manager was there and ran a tight ship - which keeps everything moving smoothly. Highly recommended for the whole family. Stop in, catch some great tunes while you enjoy some great food!

Excellent pub with exceptional service. Our family each chose a different burger, all cooked perfectly to our liking, and they were absolutely delightful. The fries were wonderfully crispy. My husband couldn't get enough of their elote. In general, it was a pleasant dining experience. If you want to relax outdoors while savoring a burger and a cold beer, this is the place for you.

A remarkably unremarkable experience. I've never had such a hard time finding something positive to say The pros - a great location and good service. Our waitress was friendly and fairly attentive. The cons - the music. I get that it's supposed to be a rock and roll vibe, but the music is so loud we had to yell to place our order - and forget about conversation. The food - nothing positive to say here. More freezer to table than farm to table. Nothing was seasoned, and the cook was questionable. No flavor, no quality. Burgers were mushy and had no char/crust. Just not good. The cocktails were equally disappointing. They took forever to come out, and were poorly made. More alcohol than flavor. No balance at all. Verdict - don't bother. If you decide you want to get hammered in a loud place, eat first.

It’s the busy season and we understand that. When we arrive for lunch the hostess said “it’s a 15-20 minute wait whether you eat inside or outside.” We said ok and that we would like to eat outside. She then replied it would be 25 minutes. She became defensive when we pointed out that she had literally just said 15-20 minutes. We thought that it was 5 minutes so it would be no big deal. After we waited 35 minutes, we went back to inquire and she assured us it would be no time. As we were carrying on a conversation between ourselves about how we were already invested after waiting this long, she told us we could go somewhere else. We were surprised at her interjection and as the conversation went, she then told us we had been rude since we walked in. Although, we thought we had been matter of fact, my husband said, “I’m sorry I’ve been rude” and she said “fine.” She finally did seat us and was a little nicer in the process. Once seated, our waitress was nice enough but she informed us she had other tables to take care of when we asked if she would take our order. Again, she was fine as a server, just felt like she was overworked. When our food finally arrived, it was mediocre. My husband’s supposedly “medium” hamburger was red inside but we certainly weren’t going to complain at this point. The fries were good!

Almost didn’t go here based on what seemed like a mediocre review score but decided to give it a try. After our third visit in the past month, I can’t understand how they don’t have a higher rating. The food is delicious. Great burger and best fries in Blue Ridge. The Pear Salad is excellent. The service was great every time. One of my favorite aspects is the decor. I love classic rock so I really enjoyed the memorabilia and the rock band inspired table tops. The inside has a classic tavern vibe while the outside deck area has a nice open air feel and overlooks one of the downtown streets. Very cool place.

The restaurant was recommended by a friend when they visited the scenic railway a few months ago. They told us that they didn't get to get in because it was busy, so we checked it out this time. Wow. What a let down. This veteran owned business boasts that everything is made from scratch, and many "rules" line the edge of the menu, like be nice. Maybe this owner should tell the employees that. We got the spinach, artichoke and brie dip. Never seen that before and after tasting it, I completely understand why you never see it, disgusting. We got the banh jovi dip with aus jus, I sent it back after one bite. Cold, flavorless meat dosed in jalapeño to mask the poor taste. And all the other ingredients, I didn't even taste. I didn't even order anything else. My friend ordered the Georgia's pride burger, and Georgia would be embarrassed if it saw that burger. They slap on half of a raw, bourbon soaked apple on a previously frozen burger patty add a thick cake like bun and viola. Trash. The hostess was on her phone as we entered, and continued to do so the entire time, ignoring everyone and everything that was happening around her. Especially when I went up to ask if they could turn the music down, which was blaring obnoxiously loud, despite only two other tables of people trying to have conversations, which apparently they complained as well. We were told that the music stays on one setting and that's it, no adjustments, ever. So while the guests i had were screaming at each other, I just watched chucks of dust fall from the ceiling onto tables and people. Oh they also sell mech for some reason. Maybe in case you want to publicly show someone were not to go. As a veteran myself, it makes me question if a veteran really runs this place? No discipline, no structure, no respect, no cleaning, nothing good on the menu. The best thing this place could do is shut down and allow a real restaurant to move in. What an embarrassment for the city of Blue Ridge. Out of the 250+ reviews that I have given, this is, hands down, the worst one.

Pizza restaurant
Masseria Kitchen+Bar is a contemporary and casual restaurant that offers thin-crust pizzas and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. The restaurant has a friendly and elegant atmosphere, with seating available in the spacious dining room, courtyard patio, or pub.
Loved this restaurant. It was Christmas time and I had gathered my whole family for the week in Blue Ridge, Georgia. Staying in a hotel with no time to plan meals. Found that Masseria Kitchen & Bar was actually open on Christmas Day so bingo! Great food, we all really enjoyed it. I had Seafood Fajitas and it was so yummy. The restaurant has outside seating but it was too cold for that. The inside is charming with a full bar. Nice varied menu with lots of selections. All four people in my party really enjoyed their food. The restaurant is located in charming downtown Blue Ridge which is a great place to walk around sightseeing. They have a train that's available for a short train trip. Super great way for us to enjoy our Christmas Day. Apologies to the staff that had to work, but thank you for making our day very special!!

Masseria Kitchen and Bar is one of the best places to get pizza in Blue Ridge, GA. Their pizzas are made with fresh, high-quality ingredients and cooked in a wood-fired oven, resulting in a thin, crispy crust and perfectly melted cheese. I highly recommend the Margherita pizza, which is made with simple but delicious ingredients like San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil. In addition to pizza, Masseria also offers a variety of other Italian dishes, such as pasta, salads, and appetizers. I've tried a few of their other dishes, and they've all been excellent. The service is always friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is casual and relaxed. Overall, Masseria Kitchen and Bar is a great place to go for pizza or other Italian food in Blue Ridge. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious and enjoyable dining experience. Here are some of the things I love about Masseria: The pizza is amazing. The crust is thin and crispy, the cheese is perfectly melted, and the toppings are fresh and flavorful. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed. It's a great place to go with family and friends. The service is friendly and attentive. The menu has a variety of other Italian dishes to choose from, in addition to pizza. The prices are reasonable. If you're looking for a great place to get pizza or other Italian food in Blue Ridge, I highly recommend Masseria Kitchen and Bar. You won't be disappointed

This was my favorite part of my blue ridge trip ! I absolutely love pizza and being on a restricted diet im a huge fan of Margherita pizzas. The Margherita pizza was the best I have ever had without a doubt ! The bruschetta was phenomenal 👏. My friend and I went here on a Saturday and the restaurant was absolutely packed out, and we only had to wait about 20 minutes to get a table. Fantastic service for how busy they were. The drinks were delicious and a wonderful start to the day of walking around the little tourist town. I'll be back to blue ridge for this restaurant anytime I'm in the area from now on 😀

I saw all the great reviews on Google maps and decided to try it. This was a great relaxing experience. We ordered a veggie pizza and it was wonderful. Nice crisp thin crust with olives, spinach, onions, tomatoes and cheese. Perfect end to the day. Very good beer selection as well. Christa our server was wonderful as well. Very entertaining and great service! So nice to have someone serve you with engaging conversation and a huge smile! We are on the patio and it was nice and cool. Sorry for the photo, we ate half the pizza before I remembered to shoot! Great job guys!

We stopped here for dinner after remembering a visit 3 years ago. It seems a bit different, far less busy. They seemed a little disorganized or short staffed, it took a while for the hostess to greet us and we sat ourselves. Hostess and bartender seemed to be standing around but there was only one server who was overworked. Food was good, we had the bianco and spinach and cheese pizzas. Both were good and the pizzas before were quite tasty as well which is why we came back. The server did quite well given the circumstances so it worked out well.

This is not the review I wanted to write. I really wanted to like this place. Small place with a nice atmosphere. We ordered immediately. Took just about 15 mins to get our appetizer. We ordered the bruschetta and it was really delicious. Our dinner however was a very different outcome. We watched people who sat down after us get their food and finish their meal before be even received our entrée. Lasagna should not be that difficult. Think they forgot us. 30+ mins we finally received it. The plate was very hot, but, the middle of the Lasagna was still cold. This became a very disappointing visit.

Good service, attentive and fast. We had to make a line, but it goes with the territory for this town. A good beer watching football while waiting is worth it. The pizza here is one of the best in our palate, we enjoyed it a lot. The salmon salad was very hearty and savory. We ordered three different pizzas and loved them all, good crust. Will be back.

Food was excellent but would not recommend Treo for a family with children. My wife and I took our three young children on the scenic railroad trip and ended our day shopping. It also happened to be our anniversary so I figured somewhere "fancy" would be a fitting finish to our trip. The hostess and assistant hostess just about turned me away which was strange because the outside seating was almost empty and inside wasn't busy yet. Then I realized it was because of my children. We were seated with lunch menus instead of children's menus (for coloring), not offered a high chair for our 16 month old, no silverware and put in the high traffic area away from the nicer seats. Our server had to fetch everything for us and was a little aggravated that he had to. However he was genuine and made this review achieve a second star. He was attentive, energetic and truly cared about our experience. The food fit the bill but the night was spoiled by not being welcomed. We will be back to Blue Ridge but likely not back to Treo.

Excellent food in an intimate setting. My wife had the scallops and I had the lamb chops. Everything was cooked perfectly, but let me tell you why I really give it 5 stars... We had guava cheesecake for dessert which was OUTstanding. We went back the next day just for dessert and Bailey's. The staff earns very high Mark's as well for friendliness and competence. We will definitely be back.

We stopped in Blue Ridge GA after taking the scenic railroad and found a great place to eat. Nice atmosphere and there was also outside seating. Varied menu choices were available for lunch: I had the chicken sandwich which was nicely breaded with a fresh slaw topping, and she had a very good crab cake sandwich. Full bar was available and the drinks were made well. Our server Candle was very pleasant and attentive. Highly recommend if you're in town.

This place is wonderful. The food is exquisite. The crab cakes had the most crab, I've seen, we had Scallops with the most flavorful risotto ever, and the filet with fabulous mashed potatoes. The owner spent time talking and petting the fur baby who was welcomed at dinner. This is a very friendly place with amazing food and attentive staff.

Restaurant is horrible! Cheesy old dingy space with holes in the tiles and grime in the baseboards :-( The whole place is run by 20 somethings that have no idea how food should taste or look. Only thing they get kudos for is the style of service, tricky to make you think you are upscale....believe me, you are not! Everything we ordered was blackened (burned on one side) without the menu stating it was. Just a little tip Treo, blackened is a style of seasoning not code for burnt! And my desert....white cake described like too notch quality and "definitely enough for two"....just look at this picture of what I was given when talked into to buying it to go. Don't eat here, ever!

Great place to swim. There are rocks leading into lake bring old Keds or good water sandels to walk in to start swimming, otherwise you can hurt your feet. I have crocs sandels and they float so if they come off you can get them back in the water. Beach is not big but offers kayaks, paddle boarding and canoes to rent. $5 to park car.

We are staying in a cabin nearby and this beach as a popular choice for our family. Our teenage son loved coming late afternoon for a swim.

My husband and I had a couples massage here for our anniversary. We had Marcy and Lisa work with us and it was amazing! They were kind, knowledgeable, and friendly. They took time to listen to our concerns and learn what would be the best for each of us. It was a fantastic experience and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone. The atmosphere was amazing.

I had an incredible massage experience with Mashelle. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. Her professionalism, calming presence, and expert technique made this one of the best massages I’ve ever had.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for true therapeutic relief or simply a moment of calm in a busy week. I’ll definitely be returning!

In addition to their delectable cupcakes, the shop offers pumpkin, pecan, and old-fashioned apple pies as well as an array of classic cakes such as red velvet and fresh strawberry.
I stumbled upon this very quaint little dessert shop after searching on Google. I ordered the Banana & Nutella Waffle and the Oreo cupcake. Both were very delicious 10 out of 10! They also have a candy corner where I took a trip down memory lane! They had so many cool options. From Candy Necklaces to Melody Pops and Candy cigarettes! A 90s kid paradise! It was cool to see! I loved the nostalgia with the retro candy! Highly recommend and I will definitely return again soon!

I have been a customer of the Sweet Shoppe for 5 years now. They are masters of their craft and reliable in their commitment to our community. We are sure to draw attention when we bring cakes made by them to dinners, but the immaculate display is only the beginning. They do not let you fool yourself into thinking fondant is suitable for food, but are able to make buttercream look just as smooth, and with the rich thickness that satisfies the birthday palate. And that is just the cake. I love the macarons and the ooey gooey bars too. Most importantly, I have seen them strike conversation with people of all walks of life, and watched as they visit schools in the area, donating time and resources. These women here do more than bake. You support them, you support Blue Ridge.

I contacted The Sweet Shoppe 2 days before my impromptu wedding. I had 2 quickly googled inspiration photos and THEY created this beautiful cake. The thing is, it tastes even better than it looks! I’m honestly not a cake girl, more into cookies, but this is slap your mama amazing!!! Vanilla cake, buttercream frosting— seems simple but THIS CAKE!!!! I’m so addicted that I go in and order a small one each visit just to feed the addiction. It’s the most amazing vanilla I’ve ever had and the frosting- not too sweet, but full of flavor. Do yourself a favor— trust me— go try it! I’ve also had the macarons and a coffee— delish! The BEST!

This is the best coffee shop, sweet shop, friendly shop, you could ever enjoy. We went to another coffee shop ask for a certain kind of coffee to be made. The guy says we don’t do that here! We were telling Lacey at the sweet Shoppe about it, and she says, “oh dear here let me make that for you”. It was such a delight to have someone who cared, to do something kind for someone. Not only is their food great, their coffee is great, and their service is even greater!

This place was Great! We initially bought as we were leaving town the last day of our vacation. We got down the road about 20 miles and tried the cupcakes and immediately turned around to drive back and get more! We also had the honey butter biscuit and dang... it is FINE. Also the staff was super friendly with great customer service... definitely recommend giving them a try ... best cupcakes i have had!

The shop is very professional with a warm welcoming atmosphere on a very quaint Main Street strip in town. We had two of the cupcakes which were both fantastic. The cake is moist and only lightly flavored. The flavor is all in the frosting and toppings but they knock those out of the park on texture and flavor! Very expensive for the size but you can tell you are paying for true expertise. The cinnamon roll was very disappointing though. The dough was surprisingly dense and chewy but not bad. The frosting was really more of a thick glaze and worked but essentially had no flavor other "very sweet". The real problem was that there was no cinnamon taste at all. I honestly thought someone had simply forgotten to add any cinnamon in this batch...until I saw a very tiny scattering of cinnamon in a few of the layers so this must be what they intended to serve. It was pleasant and I did eat the whole thing. It was really more of a sweet breakfast pastry that happened to be in a rolled shape. Absolutely could not be called a cinnamon roll and I wouldn't take another one for free. Two hits and a miss so we will have to be back to try some of their other amazing looking desserts!

Nestled in the heart of nature, the Lake Blue Ridge Recreation Area is a hidden gem that promises an unforgettable outdoor experience. With its well-maintained paved trails stretching for miles, it's perfect for leisurely strolls or energetic walks with your furry companions. The area boasts breathtaking views of the lake surrounded by majestic mountains and lush trees, making it an ideal backdrop for a picnic at one of the designated spots equipped with tables and benches.
It's a place to go to let all your worldly troubles aways. Would of loved a dock that went on to the water to dip my feet but it's magical neither the less. Most see. The historial TVA building is still a sight to see.

I really enjoy the paved trails, there’s a couple miles worth.It’s fun! Go! There’s a lake and some trees and mountains with beautiful views. If you go to the paved parking lot: there’s some trials in the woods and one down to the water. There’s a picnic table and a bench. If you go to the part that says “day use only” and is blocked off for cars?! I’d say this is the best hidden treasure in Blue Ridge. Completely paved trail, about a mile long. At one point? Across from some houses there’s a bench, but you have to find the trail for it. There’s the outer loop but ALSO inner loops with some small dead ends (where the former camping used to be). There’s volunteers that claim to monitor the area, but the bench was broken before March and the kiosk was torn up by some kids in April and it’s still messed up.

Restaurant
Misty Mountain Hops LLC is a vibrant and lively hangout spot that offers a diverse menu featuring burgers, wraps, and deviled eggs alongside an array of beer and cocktails. The atmosphere is described as energetic, with an eclectic mix of patrons from various backgrounds coming together to enjoy the music-centric setting adorned with posters of renowned bands. This establishment hosts live concerts almost every week, making it a go-to destination for music enthusiasts.
We are in the Blue Ridge area fairly often and visited here for the first time Saturday. One of our group is always very picky about their food and spares no complaints. This person didn't complain and cleaned their plate having had a grilled chicken wrap with a side salad. The fried bologna sandwich was really good and brought back childhood memories. The Wookie Nachos were really good and just the right size. Next time I will add one of the meats. They had good background music, we will have to come back another time to hang out and have a brew or 2. They had a good draught list.

We got the fries deviled eggs and they were good. The up in smoke burger was really good and a big burger for sure! Trent Avery was playing so it was nice to hear some good country music and he did a great job!

Spur of the moment pop-in, happened to be music bingo night!! Food was quick and yummy. We were looking for vegetarian fare and the menu did not disappoint with options. Our server was attentive despite a full venue and active crowd. Drinks were good but the whiskey sour was made sans egg white, so not a classic. Deep fried deviled eggs - weird but good. Try them!

This 5 star review is in regard to the little nuggets of devilish heaven. We came FOR the fried deviled eggs, and the gods did not disappoint. Go get some. We did the relish/dill topping. Ermagerd.🩷

"Fried Bologna"; that alone should be enough for you to check this place out. They have a fried bologna sandwich on the menu, which was what I had and it was delicious. Service was fantastic and the place was very comfortable. Loved the decor and the music selection they had playing throughout the restaurant. This was another place I've always wanted to come back to Blue Ridge and try and it did not disappoint. Looking forward to my next visit already.

We visited this restaurant over on June 18 ‘25 with our travel softball tournament team from Atlanta. Despite the chaos of having parents and players ordering at the same time, the entire staff—waitresses and waiters alike—was incredibly friendly, professional, and organized. The service was excellent, and everyone received their food promptly. The food was absolutely amazing and delicious—every single meal hit the spot! We truly appreciate you all, especially the three wonderful ladies who took such great care of our table. Thank you so much! Athena Foster Mojo Team Softball

All around great food and service. The Deep Fried Deviled Eggs are a must. Just happened to visit on Tuesday 'Singo' night. Had an awesome time.

Loved our first visit! The morning after, we put our leftover fried pickle okra and fried buffalo cauliflower in the air fryer to re-crisp them and then used them for bloody Mary's! YUM!!!

The 3 gas giants board was fun and delicious! I loved being able to experiment with the shots on their own and together. We had the mindful sammy & hiker bagel. Both were absolutely delicious. Always add bacon! The Orion’s tea latte is my absolute favorite and I hope it stays year round!!!!!! We love sitting inside because it is such a fun vibe with so many photo ops!

I recently visited Blue Ridge, Ga for a girl's trip for my mama's birthday and discovered this place through online reviews. Let's just say it did not disappoint. From the interior design of the cafe to the friendly baristas and the awesome Summer Nostalgia drink menu, everything here was a vibe and a solid 10/10. I tried three drinks from their summer menu: Summer Sweater (coconut & honey), Golden Hour (brown sugar shaken espresso), and Garden Party (sweet vanilla & rosemary). All three were delcious and yet not terribly sweet, thanks to the fact that they make all their syrups in-house! We also tried their lavender and almonds croissants, which were also quite good. I wish y'all were closer to me because I'd become a regular sooo fast!

Mountain Momma’s Coffee in downtown Blue Ridge is hands down the cutest coffee shop I’ve ever visited. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and charming—every detail is thoughtfully done (even the bathroom is adorable!). The coffee is absolutely delicious. I ordered one of their iced seasonal drinks and it was perfectly made, full of flavor, and so refreshing. My dad had a hot black coffee and he said it was excellent—smooth and bold. This is definitely a must-visit coffee shop in Blue Ridge, Georgia if you’re looking for great coffee and a cozy spot to relax. Highly recommend Mountain Momma’s Coffee!

Everything is so cute in there !! love the decor and baristas are nice, I ordered three of the same coffees during my visits there and they were unfortunately very different each time, one of the drinks tasted burnt and was not enjoyable, overall fantastic atmosphere, very comfortable environment but could work on consistency. Hope to be back to try some food next time! Pictures show some of the cute decor and two of the drinks ordered that visually don’t seem the same.

Yo, stepped in Mountain Mama’s, what a view, Cute little shop, all pink and new. Aesthetic poppin’, light so clean, Perfect spot for a photo scene. 📸 Day one, I’m sippin’ that Americano, Oat milk call — but they missed my combo. Didn’t trip, I let it slide, Blueberry muffin kept the vibe. 🫐 Moist top, big berries inside, Soft and sweet — yeah, certified. So good, I had to spin back through, But day two? Déjà vu. 😅 Forgot my oat milk again somehow, I’m like, “Y’all good? We cool for now.” Lady at the front had the nicest grin, But the crew felt lost deep within. Still — cute place, got charm for days, If you’re in town, it’s worth the praise. Grab a muffin, catch that light, Mountain Mama’s — Instagram bright. 💕☕

Such a cute shop! I didn’t take many pictures, but it is adorable. They have such a cool vibe. We went here twice while in town. The drinks and food are delicious. I even tried on of the mushroom drinks and it was executed well. I was very impressed! Will make a special point to return in my next trip up.

Mountain Mama’s was one of the deciding factors for us vacationing here a second time. The Rootbeer espresso float is fantastic, and one of the best pumpkin spices I’ve ever had. We’re going to come back tomorrow before leaving, and possibly tonight too. It’s that good with that many unique flavors

Fun little coffee shop and breakfast place. Their caffeine fresh mushroom drinks were delicious 😋. We got the 7th Heaven and Golden Lion. We got more traditional drinks and they were good as well. We got the Wildflower Mocha and Golden Hour. For breakfast, we got the abreakfast Sammy and Mindful Sammy. Highly recommend stopping in.

Barbecue restaurant
Carroll's Barbeque is a family-owned establishment located in Blue Ridge, known for its traditional and mouth-watering barbecue. The Carroll family has been part of the community for over 50 years, with Tom Carroll earning a reputation for his exceptional cooking skills. The restaurant offers a variety of freshly smoked meats, including delicious chicken and flavorful brisket that receives high praise from patrons.

Great southern style bbq with some over the top creative options like "Tater Hill". This monstrous portion of food can be served over a baked potato, fries, or tots and is topped with their homemade white sauce, bbq beans, mac and cheese, coleslaw, and your choice of deliciously smoked meat. The service was fast and friendly. The restaurant was clean with modern southern decor.

My wife and I were passing through Blue Ridge and decided to stop at Carroll’s Barbecue. It was lunch time in a Saturday and was steady busy. Was sat right away and our drink & food order taken. Food came out fast, was fresh and was very good food! We will definitely come back here again when in town. Definitely recommend.

The staff is super friendly and helpful! Food quality was on point. The brisket was juicy and flavorful. The Brunswick stew has a slight bite to it, giving it a unique flavor. Save room for the skillet brownie! Sooo good!

Stopped in for lunch today after a rough and long morning and the food and service made my day! The food was flavorful and comforting, just what you want from a BBQ place. We started with dessert, cause we needed the comfort and let me tell you… get the Banana Pudding! The brisket nachos absolutely made my day— the brisket was tender and flavorful without being overdone. It had a great balance of textures and flavors. We also tried the mac and cheese, and it was super creamy and rich, with just enough cheesiness to make it satisfying without feeling heavy. Definitely the perfect comfort Mac and Cheese after a long morning. Service was friendly and fast, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Especially impressed after learning they were short staffed when we arrived! Will definitely be back if we’re ever in the area again.

OMG!!! So amazing!!! Their pulled pork and brisket was phenomenal and top notch! Best bbq I’ve had in so long! We ordered take out- they lady we spoke to was amazing; food was great, and the service was 10/10! I definitely recommend this place!

The ribs were a 10/10! Best ribs I have ever had. Fell right off the bone. Pulled pork 10/10. Mac and cheese 10/10! So creamy and cheesy! Baked beans hot and really good flavor. I didn’t care for the coleslaw. Highly recommend eating here. Best bbq! Service was great! Very friendly.

Why eat a chopped pork or chicken plate when you can have a Tater Hill! It’s a baked potato piled high with BBQ, Mac and Cheese, Baked Beans and Coleslaw. It’s a plate full of deliciousness.
Eric M — Google review
Food was good…nothing to make me want to crave it and drive out of my way, but ok. Not a fan of the sauce options. Pork was tender, roll was delicious, sweet potato fries were good. We were expecting a counter service restaurant by the pictures (including ones of the drink station and huge counter with registers), but were surprised when we walked in and they had a hostess. We ended up ordering to-go, but feel they have a great option of easily switching over to being a counter service restaurant and it would serve them well.

The cafe offers a comforting Southern breakfast and lunch menu, featuring dishes like country-fried steak, omelets, and breakfast sandwiches.

We just had bumblebee’s cafe cater our breakfast for our wedding weekend - Jessica was so easy to communicate with and was so helpful and prompt. Food was delivered and SO delicious!!! Really took the stress out of worrying about breakfast in the mornings. The breakfast charcuterie for our wedding morning was so pretty and yummy!!! Consider them for catering- you won’t be disappointed!

Cute spot. Decorations were pretty and atmosphere was cozy. Busy, but no wait and plenty of seating. My meal was cooked well and nice to see cinnamon raisin toast. There was limited table interaction that allowed for our drinks to go unfilled. Staff was pleasent and welcoming.

We came here for a late breakfast and we were not disappointed. The food was fresh, came out quickly and so good. The decor and ambiance of this restaurant is what you would hope to see in a nice Blue Ridge town. We were visiting from Florida and our waitress took time to tell us of some local spots to check while we were here.

Every time we come down for Blue Ridge BBQ & Blues, we always hit the Bee for breakfast. Delicious food, healthy portions, & friendly staff. Got the veggie omelet, a side of sausages, & a monstrous pancake. Everything was cooked to perfection, & i barely finished it all! If it hadn't been for toddler screaming the entire time, would've been perfect! (I know, I know - babies cry!)

We were referred here after Serenity Café stopped serving brunch at 11:30 AM. Arrived at 1:05 PM, seated quickly, and ordered two entrées: pancakes with home fries, and a ham & cheese omelette with a pancake and home fries . ⏱️ Food arrived ~30 minutes later. The omelette was incorrect—undercooked and made with cheddar instead of American cheese as requested. It had to be remade, adding more delay. ☕ Service was minimal. We had to ask for coffee refills during our visit 🧼 The facility is clean and well-kept, but overall, the experience didn’t meet expectations. Sadly, it’s doubtful we be returning.

The food here is excellent—fresh, flavorful, and worth a visit. The staff was friendly when we arrived, and the overall atmosphere was welcoming. The downside was the service once the food was served. No one came back to check on the table, which meant no coffee refills. At $3.99 a cup, it’s disappointing not to get a top-off. If coffee is important to your breakfast, you might want to skip it and just stick with water. Great food, but service could be more attentive.

Who's in a hurry? Slow down and enjoy breakfast! My husband and I were visiting the area and this restaurant was recommended by a local at the Orchard as the place to get a great breakfast. And she was right! We each ordered different omelets; one Ham & Cheese, one Western, and each was absolutely delicious! The onions and peppers in the Western Omelet were prepared exactly as I liked them. Home fries accompanied our orders with hot delicious coffee and a most friendly waitress!! We left happy and will return again in the future. 5 star 🌟 Highly recommend if you prefer a homemade breakfast made perfectly!! Busy place is a great sign to us!!!
Deborah — Google review
We were on vacation and were looking for breakfast before hitting the road to come home. The staff and service were excellent, very quick to get our order and drinks along with getting us a place to sit as quickly as they could considering how many of us there were. The food came out very efficiently and all at the same time. The food was "good" but really nothing that made it stand out. It was basic breakfast and lunch items, there was nothing that made it just jump up to a 5* level. The coffee was not very good, but I usually drink dark robust coffee so that truly could have just been me forgetting what normal coffee tastes like.
