Restaurants in Athens

“Love the food , tonight we was served by Amity and she made our visit truly a nice dinner experience. She has a great attitude and was super nice !!!!”

“My Dad and I like to go here on Sundays for coffee and a visit. They prices, coffee, internet, and atmosphere are better than Starbucks. I love the sweet treats and food they offer as well. The restroom is always clean. Service is friendly and prompt. Even the other customers are friendly.”

“Surprised a hole in the wall and good food Low Prices and Great Waitress Erica and Sandra were awesome and great cooks. Sandra is Single boys and a good cook is hard to find. Single guys go and ask for Sandra”

“Fantastic house-cafe and diner experience! The reuben was stellar and the cabana wrap was perfect lite fare for the summer. They have fresh baked cakes and desserts along with the most delicious cheesecake bars around. This family owned and operated establishment is worth the visit!”

“The food & service is always excellent! We'll be back again.”

“We stopped in while visiting Athens for the day. The place was recommended by my boyfriend’s coworker. There was nothing fancy about the dining area but the food was soooooo good! The homemade yellow queso was incredible as well as the salsa. We ordered gorditas and the chile rellenos and both were delicious!! 😋 A young man waited on us and they were very attentive and kind. The food was hot and fresh! We will be back for sure!”

“Best italian food we have ever had, sure miss it, hopefully we can make the trip soon!!”

“The teas & shakes are amazing! And the protein balls are so yummy! Go by & see Amanda she is the best!!”

“Wow! I loved this place! A beautiful country setting perfect for any time of year. Can’t wait to go in the fall and winter! Beautiful stone hearth inside. Wine selection was great and the charcuterie was the best. Great staff and proprietors! Highly recommend!”

“Great food at this location. Definitely will be going back !”

“Kaity Moses was just a sweetie! She came by checking on us often. It made us feel special.

As always the food was yummy! I love getting the harvest chicken sandwich. Yummy! Of course that good ol’ sweet tea with lemon 🍋 is THE BEST!”

“Very good sushi and hibachi! 🍱🍣♥️”

“Woefully understaffed. Food is pretty good, but there appears to be only one server no matter how busy they are. She's a great server but she's just one woman.”

“super atencion a los clientes”

“Neza is great. Great food, great service. The best queso in the world. Jamie is the best at making sure all your needs are met. It’s like she can read your mind. I recommend to everyone to give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.”

“Don't let the name fool you. They have sweet treats, but if you need healthy options they have that to. Forget to meal prep enough swing by they have great selections for grab and go.”

“Food was soooo good and so was customer service ❤️ we loved it!”

“I’m a first time “Sno Bunnies” goer and I must say, it was quite the treat in this heat! Great atmosphere and energy, I will definitely be trying out more of the flavors this summer but the banana made with pure cane sugar was awesome! Thank you so much for keeping me cool this afternoon!🙏😎🩷”

“I often pick up their daily food specials and they are always super tasty and of course, their wonderful treats!”

“Friendly service, easy in and out on the road meal.”

“From the chips and hot sauce, appetizers, tacos, and enchiladas... everything tasted good, and the portions were generous. Live music or karaoke at certain times makes this a great place to unwind.”

“Went and saw a show there and now love this place. Great drinks and food. Perfect atmosphere!!!”

“Moved away from the Athens area in 2013. Still have family there. Places I missed food wise in Athens came to mind and Burger Barn is one of my 2. I'd get burgers and fries for my hubby right before his lunch break so it'd be ready when he headed home. We'd meet at home at the same time every time. Best burgers and fries! 12/10”

“Ariel is the absolute sweetest server in there. We had the best experience ever because of her. She was like a family member. Got everything perfect and she was so attentive and sweet the entire time. Honestly, the best chilis experience of my life and I’ve been going to various locations almost my entire 40 years of life. She’s an absolute GEM!! ♥️”

“Love this place!!! Their green pressed juice is soo good! Asked them to add a scoop of protein to make it my lunch today and omg!!! sooo delicious!! thank yall!!!😍😋”

“I recommend Thrive cafe because their coffee is excellent and the service is wonderful!”

“We took a group ride from south of Ft Worth and to say we were not disappointed is an understatement. We had a group of about 17 and the service was great. Food was hot and amazing not to mention it was not very expensive. Try the pork rinds. I noticed that any bad reviews mention another restaurant which is very suspicious to us. Come try Wawas, it is well worth it.”

“I walked in, unknowingly, right at closing. I turned to leave, and the nice lady asked me if I would like an order to go. She saved me from motel Ramen. And the food was great. The shrimp were tasty. The chicken was moist. I may go back tomorrow.”

“The young lady behind the counter made a suggestion to put my jalit9 ranch on texas toast, and it was a good idea. Not as much bread even though I took the top piece off anyway. They played music that was peaceful and uplifting. As I was leaving, I saw the scripture for the day. I will be back.”

“Fabulous Teas! Scrumptious Shakes! Great Vibes!”

“Despite the mixed reviews, it may have been a bad time for them. I’ve never been here before and order a single entree (jalapeño chicken with lo mein) while waiting for laundry to dry. The lady who works there is kind and the choices are limited. The food I ordered was both delicious and fresh, with lots of flavors and the perfect amount of spice. I will definitely return again!”

“Super cool place we stumbled upon while looking at the antique shops nearby. We ordered orange juice and grapefruit that were fresh squeezed to our surprise. Good aperol spritz too. The decor and vibe are so fun and I liked the music that was on. Great vibe!”

“I've been here 3 different times since visiting out of state. The place is so good from the food to the ice cream. Customer service is amazing and the place is clean. The market is so cute and fun”

“we drove an hour 2 weeks ago to try this place out to celebrate my fathea retirement. it was a busy evening we had no reservations. 6 pple. she told us 45 min wait. we said ok. she seated us in 10. Great service! Great food! clean restaurant with a nice view of the water. we are anxious to visit again!”

“One of the best burgers I’ve had in the last decade, hands down. Excellent service, delicious, fresh food, and beautiful, natural atmosphere. Will definitely drive from Dallas again to join one of their dinner events sometime!”

“PHENOMENAL Friday special of the Birria Tacos!!!!!!”

“Love their Protein Smoothies! Great atmosphere, and great selection of natural & local products.”

“Food was awesome tonight 😍”

“Great food for all your needs”

“Absolutely amazing restaurant!
The food here is incredibly delicious — fresh ingredients and great flavors. Whether you’re in the mood for sushi or classic Chinese dishes, everything is cooked to perfection. The service is friendly and fast, and the atmosphere is clean and welcoming. One of the best Asian restaurants I’ve been to. Highly recommended!”

“The owner is the best his kindness and loyalty to his family, employees, and customers. Can't ask for more. the food is just amazing. The owner is amazing person of God and friend. Everything about this place is just wonderful the service the atmosphere the food even the staff. Hope to see you again brother.”

“Great food and amazing service”

“Good food. Great service. I’m Super happy I found this place!”

“I was there at 715pm and my food was hot and fast considering there was a long line of kids and how busy it was. Definitely taking my family back”

“Great chips & hot sauce. Chicken enchiladas with beans and rice were great for the $9.00 special. Bought a dozen tamales to go for $10 (good) and a bag of chips & sauce. Will definitely go back next time I'm in this neck of the woods.”

“always has great service and food”

“Delicious food... best breakfast around the city.”

“So good this weekend! We had brisket, smoked sausage, macaroni & cheese and baked beans. 😋 The brisket potatoes are EXCELLENT too! They’re one of our hometown businesses and we sure do need to support them! During the ice storm last year, they sure did help with being able to buy meats & staples when they weren’t in the stores.”

“Work graveyard shift, every Saturday morning & Sunday morning eat lunch there. Always same order, burger, fries & small drink. The burger is always great, but the fries are different The fries are always hot, but if store is busy the fries are very crispy (Great). But if the is not busy, the fries are still hot. They are very limp & saturated with oil. On these occasions I just throw them away. Don't know why this has held true since May 2022. Frustrating”

“Great service and great food. We were caught in the storm that night and the mgr said we could stay inside til the storm lifted. I'm so thankful for such kindness. ?✝️”

“They are hard working and will be patient with you and try their best to get your order out

Parking: There is enough to park and have a quick stop to rest

Kid-friendliness: The workers enjoy kids”

“Everything was great, food, service except I'm guessing the air conditioner was out but they did their best to make guests comfortable with cooling fans to circulate the air.”

“Every taco bell I go to is the same. Hit or miss on food quality or service. Today I made a mistake and ordered incorrectly on the app. The nice lady told me not to worry about it, wrote down the right order and I got it a couple minutes later. Nobody's stomach is meant to eat Taco bell consistently but if I could I would at the Athens location. I appreciate the quick fix on my lunch break!”
