Restaurants in Watkinsville

“My son and I love this place!”

“Súper recomendado todo está delicioso.”

“Amazing staff. knowledgeable and friendly. the oktoberfest was delicious”

“Very delicious food and welcoming staff for such an amazing price. They need a lounge area so you can go to sleep after because this will put you in a food coma. Must try!”

“Great spot for lunch or dinner in downtown Watkinsville”

“I made a particularly specific to-do order for a friend. Even though it took me a while to get everything in order for everyones food, they were very patient and sweet! The one who took my order, Lilli I think their name is, went above and beyond! There was another server who put together my order as well but I didn't catch her name. Definitely coming back!”

“Saw this nice little hole in the wall by chance while driving through town. Deliciois fresh food, service with a smile, and quaint atmosphere. Definitely would stop anytime in the area. LOVE the hummingbirds painted on the front windows too!”

“Delicious, homestyle food perfectly cooked and a great variety of meal choices at very reasonable prices. They have a large, standard, daily menu plus revolving daily specials of the main course, sides, and desserts. Very friendly staff, consistent food quality, and the convenience of call-ahead orders with pickup at the drive-through window. My favorite meal is country fried chicken breast filet with white gravy, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, cornbread, and red velvet cake for dessert!!! If they had delivery service and added soups and chili to the menu, i might not ever eat anywhere else. 😊Julie Williams”

“I enjoy dining here. Hardly ever have I had bad food or service. Always a good to great experience. However I urge you to strongly reconsider having live music in your establishment. While I love music, your establishment is way to small for it. I came here to have dinner and conversation with my wife. If I wanted to hardly be able to carry a conversation and hear live music, I’d go to a bar. If this becomes a regular occurrence, I’ll find a new pizza joint. Sincerely a long time customer. And yes, there is outdoor dining, however it isn’t always available seating wise or ideal temps.”

“Iron Horse Nutrition is always super professional and polite. The staff is friendly and makes you feel welcome every time. I always get the Tropical Blast loaded tea, and it’s perfect every single time. Tastes great and gives me the boost I need. Highly recommend!”

“Friendly Great loaded teas and specialty items”

“Had lunch with a friend yesterday. The food was delicious and bread pudding was awesome. They were short staffed but the service was excellent. Definitely will be back!”

“What a wonderful place to eat as well as the food quality! The food was fantastic and authentic and the venue was clean and open. Can sit outside or inside very easily.”

“love there pizza and you cant get unlimited toppings”

“Classic City Eats has the spirit of a NJ bar with southern flair. The bar pie, fried chicken, sliders were light out perfect and the service was exceptional. Hang at the bar with Kevin and you're in for a good time and excellent service.”

“Best empanadas around! Friendly folks and very clean.”

“Scoops Watkinsville is a local gem!

From the moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted with warm smiles and a cheerful atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The staff is truly amazing—friendly, helpful, and clearly passionate about what they do.

And the ice cream? Absolutely delicious. Every flavor I’ve tried has been rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced—whether you’re into the classics or something a little more adventurous, there’s always something new to love.

The shop itself is beautifully decorated, with a charming vibe that makes it the perfect place to relax with friends or bring the whole family. It’s more than just a stop for a treat—it’s an experience.

Their social media presence is also top-notch. It’s fun, engaging, and always keeps you in the loop about new flavors and events—plus it never fails to make me smile.

Scoops Watkinsville has quickly become one of my favorite places, and I can’t recommend it enough!”

“Omg i come for the amazing weekly homemade cheesecakes but that blackened Grouper sandwich is off the charts SOOOO GOOOD! Also love love love their Bison burgers and drunken boxcar fries and fried Shrimps! One of my absolute favorite places to eat!🙀🩷‼️🍽🐟🍔🍤”

“While there's an outstanding bakery in Watkinsville, GA, renowned for their Bacon-Cheddar Quiche, patrons should be aware that reaching the destination involves traversing a speed trap set by the Greene County Sheriff's Office on Greensboro Highway between HWY 316 and I-20, a hazard that has led me to alter my route and avoid Greene County during my regular commutes between Auburn, GA and Shaw AFB, SC, a decision I suggest others consider as well.”

“Great food, and cool bar!”

“We have been to G Brand BBQ several times. Each time has been a sure joy. The food has always been excellent and the staff super friendly! We have tried many BBQ places in the area, and G Brand BBQ has become our go-to-place without question. We thought the prices were reasonable and not at all out of line. This is especially true considering how generous the servings sizes are. I give it 5 stars plus and two thumbs up! Try it! You will be glad you did!!”

“I like to serve coffee at the events like Redemption Church and The Spires at Berry College.”

“We had never been here but my wife received a gift card so we decided to go for our 3rd wedding anniversary. We made reservations and they had a table ready for us when we arrived. The service was excellent, the food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. We had money left on our card so we returned a week later and it was just as good as the first time. We highly recommended it.”

“We booked La Pa on wheels for our wedding and man they DID NOT disappoint. Taqueria La Parilla is mine and my husbands favorite Mexican place in Athens and it meant the world to us to have them cater our wedding. 10/10. Best service. Best food. Carlos was awesome and so communicative the whole year before our wedding!”

“This was a pleasant find. I will definitely stop in again next time I'm passing through. Very fresh . Picked up a flavored coffee that was flavored just right. Not too sweet. Egg sandwich and banana bread. Food was fresh and homemade. Drive thru available”

“Good food and good service.”

“Marcos in Watkinsville is excellent and it’s our go-to chain for pizza. The drivers are always fast and courteous and our food is hot and fresh. The owners of this franchise have always been gracious to their customers. Highly recommend, especially when you want delivery while watching the Dawgs game on Saturdays. Keep up the great work!”

“Great place to grab a quick breakfast. I typically get either the half yogurt and granola or the half sausage gravy and biscuit. Always tasty and a nice generous portion for the price.”

“The meals from the classic Varsity menu are available with an easier access.”

“Excellent, healthy vegan options! Don’t know anywhere else to get such quality food that tastes so yummy through a drive through (quick too!)”

“Great food, staff and prices!”

“Food is delicious. Staff is friendly!”

“Food is always fresh and tastes good. Service is friendly! Bought takeout quite a few times without any issues. It's a small dine in area, not really suited to eat in. For take out a 5 star!”

“We have been twice in the last week and the food was amazing. Definitely one of the best filets I've had at a Japanese restaurant. One dinner meal is enough to feed 2-3 people!”

“Absolutely one of the best steaks I've had in my life. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. Amazing atmosphere and service on top of that.”

“We held our annual group Christmas party on their outdoor deck last evening. Great spot for a mid-size group gathering. Food is always good and the service was excellent! Will definitely use this space again!”

“I can’t say enough positive things about this place. The new location has a nice staff, laid back atmosphere, and terrific food which is the perfect mix for a hometown bar & grill. The “Cocky Cowboy” is the best chicken sandwich in the game and I’ll die on that hill. So glad to have them back in Watkinsville, looking forward to more good times, and good food, from great people.”

“Jessica was so helpful. I placed a DoorDash order and I couldn't add certain things to the order because that's DoorDash. Well I called Jessica and she made sure I had everything I needed. Thank you so much Jessica. We need more people like you in this world you're the best!”

“I stopped by Zaxby’s in Watkinsville, GA, and was extremely impressed! The staff was friendly, fast, and professional — they really know how to provide top-notch service. The food came out fresh, hot, and delicious, exactly what you’d expect from Zaxby’s done right. They also manage their time really well, even during busy hours. Overall, a great experience from start to finish — definitely one of the best Zaxby’s locations around!”
