Dining

 

The North Georgia Mountains are home to some wonderful locally owned restaurants. Some of them feature traditional southern cuisine like fried green tomatoes and rainbow trout. When visiting, make sure to bring your appetite.

 

Blue Ridge Mountain Bar-B-Q

 

Serves authentic southern Bar-B-Q. Slow hickory-smoked ribs, pork, beef and chicken; and rich, thick Brunswick Stew. Our Bar-B-Q has the delicious smokey flavor that only comes from a real hardwood smoker and is served with your choice of our special-recipe original, sweet or hot Bar-B-Q sauce on the side.
