The best grits in Athens. Yummy breakfasts and you are steps away from a great walk/hike/bike down the Greenway by the river. I've never tried they're Chocolate cake for breakfast, but it sounds good!

Unreal cakes and cupcakes. Order a day ahead or even early in the morning for afternoon pickup. I can bring in a cake and people will ask, "Is that a Cecilia's cake?" An Athens institution. Strictly for pick up, no dine-in.

You can tell people in Athens that you're staying on the same block as "the Tree" and they'll know exactly where you are! Stroll down the block and take some pictures of this Athens institution.

Quintessential Athens. They don't take reservations, so go early or be prepared to wait. Salmon and grits, Struggleville pasta are 2 of my favorites--but save room for dessert. The cakes are from Cecilia's, and they are amazing.

From the Red & Black review: Updated Southern fare shines at this elegant, understated restaurant. The menu varies, but staples such as pecan trout and stellar vegetable plates are cozy and familiar, as are snacks like deviled eggs and cheese straws. Start next door at its glam companion cocktail bar, Sidecar. Inquire ahead about pickup hors d’oeuvres. Me: Try the tomato pie. And if you're lucky enough to find chompers on the dessert menu, order them!
