We had a great meal tonight at the Local 706. Our server, Olivia, was an absolute delight and did a great job serving us. The food arrived quickly and was delicious.

I ordered the kids mac & cheese, and it was more like Alfredo. It said it was a bacon mac & cheese, but it was a plate of cheese pasta but just a little bit of bacon on top still good, but not very much like mac & cheese.

Their fried chicken sandwich and fried chicken salad seems to be hand breaded. It’s pretty good. We enjoyed eating there without a stomach ache. It was pretty busy, lots of college kids. Would definitely go back.

Really good! We had small children with us, and they enjoyed it too.The 6 yr old ate his entire burger 🍔. The staff was very accommodating for a group of 7.

Googled a place to get burgers otw from Atlanta and saw this place pop up. Never having been we decided to give it a shot. While the parking lot was a bit dated the moment we stepped out and took a whiff we knew the food was going to good. Had no wait, even on a game day. Our server was incredibly friendly and the food was delicious- fried pickles the looooooonnnggg way was a nice change. Seemed like a great place to get a beer or bring the kids- the changing rooms in the restrooms also seemed much more comfortable than the hard plastic ones I usually see.

My daughter and I sat on the outside, and the food and service was good. There was an issue with so many flies. Which is expected considering we were seated outside. They did have the fans on. I just wish they had some screens out, too.

We got to the restaurant at 6:50 and got our food at 8:30. Then the manager came to a table right beside us and loudly announced that they were getting their meals for free while everyone else around sat for just as long if not longer. We drank our first round of drink and waited another 30 minutes before even being checked on, then it took 20 minutes before getting the next round for 3 people. Overall, super disappointing!

Our waitress was very inattentive and the other waitress had to make up for her shortcomings. She was a bit busy chatting it up with the patron at the bar, so she was clearly preoccupied. Food was alright, but certainly nothing worth swarming here for. I understand it was a slow day, but we still didn’t quite enjoy spending an extra 30 minutes waiting on service.

We love this place! The food is always delicious. The fried mushrooms are the best I’ve ever had. Our bartender Dovey was so sweet and attentive. All of the above is a gem in Athens! If you haven’t been check them out, you won’t regret it!
