Restaurants in Clarkesville

“My date took here on Friday night. First time going and I'll definitely be there again. Staff was great and the owner was very friendly. Had the Adana Special w/ beef kabob. For it being my first time eating Mediterranean cuisines it was amazing. The flavors were so good and I didn't leave anything for the to go box. Highly recommend Kaboblicious for a truly good time w/ great food”

“Hidden in plain sight. Mountain setting turns into a trip to New Orleans when the menu is presented. Can't go wrong with ettouffe anything, oysters Rockefeller, and chocolate torte. Didn't love the meatloaf. Preserve the tomato topping! Highly recommend.

“The loaded nachos are so good! I was a bit skeptical before trying it. The food is so delicious and full of flavor. The food came out so quickly and the prices are absolutely worth it”

“Great place. I tried the restaurant a couple of months ago ,and are hooked. The food and service has been excellent every time.”

“first time trying Wolf Creek BBQ today.. the food was sooooo good. brisket, pulled chicken, pulled pork, and cowboy beans. my husband and I will definitely be back.”

“The waitress and the easy ness of being there”

“we were camping in the area when we came across this very cozy restaurant. food was great as well as the staff. you could tell they have quite a few locals as well as travelers will be going back again before we head home”

“Good food and pleasant service”

“A great place to eat.They have the best hotdogs,hamburgers, French fries around.”

“We love this place, we have been there numerous times the staff is good,great customer service.food is bar food but it's better than most bars in Helen. Atmosphere is nice many tvs.huge outside seating area”

“My family and I love this restaurant. The owners are extremely nice and the food is excellent! The owners makes everything from scratch and you can tell! We have tried the beef pho, bulgogi, teriyaki chicken, and curry chicken and they are all delicious. I am not a fan of curry, but I love theirs! The potato salad and kimchi (doesn't stink like some places!) are outstanding. I would eat here everyday if I could. Don't let the prices scare you off....you get what you pay for and the food is worth every penny! And don't forget to try the many canned drinks from Thailand! What a treat!”

“Stopped in today with my daughter for a quick lunch. I had the slammer and she had the corn dog. Everything was cooked just right. The staff was fast and friendly and the place was super clean. Love to support local!”

“Friendly staff serving great food in a historic building. When in the area, The Attic will be our "go to" restaurant.”

“November 12, 2024 - It's official, this place has, unfortunately, closed for good. Came by today and saw them carrying off furnishings, and a big sign said, "closed." Also, I saw a sign that said the business is for sale. So, so, sad... The food was some of the best around. We'll miss you Billy and Starr. 😭

Oct. 31, 2024 - Not sure what's happening? I traveled to get food last Friday for lunch but the place was closed. My friend traveled yesterday to get lunch but the place was closed. What's up?

(New Update at bottom)

So, many months ago, I saw that this place (a little hole-in-the-wall, which I love) had a sign saying they would be coming soon. I've been waiting and checked Google Maps today and they said they were open. A perfect time to visit!

The place sits separately on one side of a gas station (which lately seems a trend for good little food places) and is small. It is very eclectic in decor and has maybe 7 tables and a counter to sit at. It is decorated with movie memorabilia and knicknacks which make it interesting to look at while waiting for your order.

Our waitress, Star(r)(sic?) was friendly, quick-witted and sharp. She had a response to everything, and it was all funny. Even though she was by herself the service was good. No complaints.

As you'll see, the menu is pretty extensive for such a small spot and the food above what we get in the area. My friend has a burger, with everything, so big and fries (lightly seasoned and flavorful). I had a pork cutlet sandwich and fries squash. I ordered the cutlet because I don't find many places have it - handcut and to order. Both were enough to bring us back to try other good items. (My only suggestion would be to have a heartier bread, like cibatta, to hold up under the hot cutlet because the bread was so-so and got steamed on the bottom and fell apart).

I wanted an appetizer and asked if the mushrooms were frozen or fresh and the waitress said, "everything is fresh." She was right! I had the mushroom appetizer and a side of squash (with meal), and both were lightly battered and delicious.

I'll definitely be back and my friend said he would as well. The owner came out and chatted and was nice and talked a bit about his restaurant background. Good to have the details.

Definite recommendation for our first time. I'll update this review next time, but you should definitely try it!

UPDATE: I've been three times now and the third time is as good as the first (second time was okay). You'll see I added photos of the "Famous Que" and the "Reuben." Both sandwiches were hearty and unique to the area (no one has anything close). The "Que" had sizable amounts of thick brisket, onions, peppers, and cheese on a toasted bun (the toasted bun is important for texture). I had a side of green beans in a juice made with some of the juices from the meat. Wow! Good flavor! The Reuben had thick slices of corned beef, cabbage, and cheese. I haven't seen a Reuben like this since the Jewish deli's in New England (not as hearty but close).

I would definitely recommend you go before this place gets a following and you can't get in. I'm going to work for a permanent seat. 🤣”

“Take out only- order taker and staff were very nice. The place is quite different- you drive up to a window in front of this old building and get your order. Food was excellent- one of the best pizzas I have had in a long time! And the wings were also very good. Would highly recommend!”

“This is a must do when In clarkesville. They have a coffee lounge, and beautiful handmade pottery, jewelry and art. I love the ' coffee flight' with 4 hand picked large sampling of iced or hot teas and coffees.y favorite Lavender Honey coffee!!!! Did I forget to mention the delicious bakery treats too. Stop by!!!”

“The Lake Burton Grill and Bowline Takeaway are open 7 days a week. The Bowline is open 11:00 am until 8:00 pm and The Lake Burton Grill is open for dinner service at 5:00 pm each day.”

“"A to Zinc is a hidden gem in Clarksville! We stopped in while on a road trip to pick up some supplies and were thoroughly impressed. The store has a great selection and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. As a bonus, they're dog-friendly - our pup Freyja felt right at home and even got some pets from the kind employees. Whether you're a local or just passing through, A to Zinc is definitely worth a visit. 5 stars all the way!"”

“Love the new Bowline replacing whatever was there before. Delicious menu. Loved the Fish Tacos. Open 11-8 daily. Same ownership as the Lake Burton Grill above (replacing the Chophouse).”

“Great food, price on point, they care about the business. Try them out! You will not be disappointed.”

“No one knows JUST how AMAZING the food is here because it's tied to a bowling alley. Let me just tell you..... It's some of the best food in Habersham County. The menu is as big as Texas. Don't know what to get? Go on a Tuesday and try a specialy cocktail by the best bartender ever. Start with an appetizer of spinach artichoke dip, the Greek salad will hit home. For a meal, hit the burger menu. ALL of them are to die for. Have fun, Eat happy. Much LoVE”

“AMAZING EVERYTIME!! Drive from Clemson to come here”

“The owners/family is soooooo nice! Very friendly! The steak was seasoned to perfection! We truly enjoyed the food! 10/10!”

“Noticed this little shop this morning while my boyfriend and I were out to get him breakfast. I really wanted A to Zinc as I am not a breakfast person and prefer protein shakes. I was upset when we got to A to Zinc and realized that they didn't open until 1 on Sundays, on our way home I spotted the sign for Clarkesville Protein Place on the square and had my boyfriend to stop because I was going to give it a chance since I'd never noticed it before. I walked in with very little expectations thinking I'd only see a few basic flavors but I was wrong. I walked in and was handed a menu with a HUGE variety of protein shake flavors, antioxidant teas, acaì bowls, and protein waffles!! The lady working was super nice and gave me a sample of their peach tea (which was delicious and refreshing) and asked if I was from the area. I told her I was and asked how long her shop had been there an she told me 4 months?! I'm just now noticing it!! The price is a little high, but absolutely better than A to Zinc for the amount that you get (protein drinks anyways) I got the chai pumpkin latte iced coffee protein drink and let me just say, Starbucks who? On top of all of this they open at 8 am 7 days a week!! I am a super satisfied customer who is proud to say "My business has officially moved from A to Zinc to Clarkesville Protein Place!"

“Great coffee and great service!”

“It’s a lovely warm place. The people there are sweet and the cooks are just as nice. The waitresses work hard and always busting their butts. If you haven’t tried it, you should. 💗”

“Went to this location for the first time today. It's definitely a LOT nicer then the other Subway's. The employees with courteous and quick. Got back to work in plenty of time.”

“The food looks delicious in the pictures…wait til you try it! So good! Fast and friendly service, reasonable prices!”

“I went there tonight with 30 minutes to spare before closing, the young lady Brooklyn was extremely polite while I was apologizing for getting there so late. 100% nothing but kind and helpful. Hopefully management knows they have a rockstar with her working the drive thru window.”
