Food scene
Delicious soups, sandwiches and salads. In downtown Ellijay on the square. They have prime rib on Friday nights that’s amazing, and other specials for dinner that are equally delicious. And don’t even get me started on the desserts!

Come here for lunch with a view. You are literally sitting riverside on a lovely patio, so it’s usually a popular spot. The fresh mountain trout (I recommend it pecan crusted) is especially delicious, and also the shrimp and grits.
