Athens Restaurants

It's no secret that college towns often have the best food, and Athens, Georgia, is certainly no exception to this rule. It's also no secret that this usually means there's a ton of affordable eats, like $2 tacos and decked out hot dogs. If you're looking to wet your palate, take a cue from the many students traipsing about the downtown area and head for one of the several coffee shops for an ambitious pick-me-up. When night falls, trade the latte for a bar crawl. But where football reigns supreme, so does tailgate food: think wings, ribs, fried okra, and potato salad. Whether you're catching the game or a local show, it's a fuel preferred by the spirited locals.
