A nice basket deal for lunch with fried Georgia wild shrimp, slaw & sidewinder fries. Wife got same, but with fish & baked potato. We divvied up to make our own combo. Friendly service.
Decent room, decent price with a good breakfast including a neat conveyor belt pancake maker.
Got an everyday special pulled pork sandwich with slaw & iced tea for a late lunch with grandson. Kid’s meal comes with nice pork sandwich, chips & a kid drink. Good deal & friendly service.
Attended for a Paulding Chamber-related meeting, not for church services, but looks like a really nice facility. Check them out this Sunday.
Get the FatBoy burger (original was a couple $ cheaper as a lunch special). Comes with big spiral-cut fries called Sidewinders. Wife & her sis split 10 wings (5 buffalo/5 garlic-parm & said good).
I’ve seen Brandi’s for years but never @ the right time, so stopped on a whim. Slaw dog, O-rings & a very large ice tea - thumbs up. They gave a chili sample to try - good but as spicy as they warned.
A nicely restored throwback pharmacy/soda shop/restaurant with lots of memorabilia. It trades on the town legend of the “hugging” apparition. Good burger, French dip, club sandwich, etc.
Updating my past tip. Things seem to have improved here of late currently, late 2022). Give it a try for all the usual Zax favorites.
It was good, though expectations were too high. I had the trifecta w/French toast & scrambled eggs (“good”), bacon (perfect) & berry compote (very good). Wife’s bacon avocado omelette also “good.”
Had fried shrimp souvlaki over Greek potatoes, w/ pita & tzatziki sauce. Wife said should’ve had grilled - prob, but fried was good too. She had Mediterranean Grouper. Beautifully prepped & delicious.
A late morning visit after a medical appointment, I picked a powdered sugar crème-filled. I think a Lady Jane? Very good but very sweet. Lots of choices so I’ll try something different next time.
This is a private conference center within the Georgia Power headquarters building.
Your standard Cookout. Good “Tray” deals with main option (burgers, hot dogs, bbq, chicken), 2 sides, huge drink for about $7. Good tea, milkshakes & more.
Hadn’t been in years. Get the personal size Meatasaurus (photo). Note - it has a little spice in the sausage. Or get the Peaceful Garden if you prefer veggie. Lots of other choices. Good tea.
A nice mini-museum detailing Acworth’s history. Free & open to public, there are no attendants in the 1-room building, but it’s video monitored. A-V displays take you through multiple vignettes.
Restaurants, shops, the old caboose mini-museum & Acworth Depot History Center, plus a pedestrian bridge to safely traverse the tracks.
Lots of fun items, hardware, farm supply & more. Even found rolls of caps for an old cap gun I have.
Nicely restored as a self-serve, free mini-museum, air conditioned & monitored by camera, descriptive posters line the walls, telling Acworth’s history, Dixie Highway, the city’s railroad past & more.
First Popeye’s visit in probably 20 yrs. Tried the fried shrimp of all things. Pretty good. Will do the famous chicken sandwich next time.
A member benefit - nice pumps & you generally save 10 cents or so a gallon. They can be busy though.
Stop in not just for the free sampling cookie bar, but also to learn the fascinating history that brought this one-time cookie shanty to international fame. Scotch Oatmeal still the king.
Come for the coffee, stay for the breakfast. Try the Barnard St. Breakfast - the most traditional with eggs, meat & waffle. Very good. Pastries look good too. This is wife’s all-time fave coffee.
Classic visitor destination in Historic Savannah. Redeveloped in 70s/80s, the thriving pedestrian scene has shops, restaurants, bars, hotels & more. There is car traffic down the cobblestones too.
Wide variety of loose leaf teas, spices & accessories. Friendly, helpful owners too.
Delicious with great service. First visit since we lived here 16 yrs. ago. Sadly, 4-days later (Aug 2022), the restaurant burned. Unsure of its future at this point.
Haven’t stayed here yet, but toured the big hall, galleries, bars & restaurants. Fantastic redevelopment. I worked my 1st summer job here & later helped retire it from active service as a power plant.
So many choices. From a maple bacon doughnut to bright cereal-topped, with traditional choices in between, including sour cream, blueberry, chocolate & crumb as well as a tasty apple fritter.
