The Branded Butcher was great, too! Had some of their food Saturday afternoon when we checked out the new rooftop bar at the Georgia Theater. There’s some good food stuff going on in Athens, for sure. It’s like those college kids, hippy musicians and horrible football fans think they’re in Decatur or something!

I take your point, though when we lived outside of Decatur we would go to Pastries-A-Go-Go on weekends. But that had more to do with a lack of such places near where we lived and the relative ease of getting to Pastries… Our destination breakfast/brunch places have long been Java Jive and Murphy’s, but both are usually too crowded and inconvenient in terms of parking to visit very often.

Nope. None of those are places people come from outside of Decatur to eat at. Sorry.

I’m open to people disagreeing but that’s how I see it.

And there’s definitely no true vegetarian restaurant…

The Grit would kill it.

Decatur doesn’t have a real destination breakfast place? Really?… Maybe your sarcasm is too subtle for me, but just in case…
How about: Thumbs Up, Pastries A Go Go, Sweet Melissa’s or Cakes & Ale?
Weekend Brunch @ Marley House, Twain’s, Cafe Alsace, Wahoo! Grill, Leon’s Full Service, Parker’s On Ponce, Big Tex, MAR.. etc.
Just outside Decatur: Rise-N-Dine, Sun In My Belly, Radial
I’ve even heard a rumor that some people actually go to J Christopher’s!
