We had lunch at Betty's yesterday and immediately fell in love with the sisters behind the bar…read more They were super friendly, fun, and truly made us feel welcome. Unfortunately, that's really the highlight of our visit. We were starving, so we all ordered hearty plates. My daughter ordered chicken strips with okra and corn. I had the same but swapped for mac & cheese and green beans. My husband ordered the roast beef with green beans and mac & cheese. All meals came with a cat head biscuit. The food looked great, but there was zero seasoning in anything. I honestly don't know how you mess up green beans, but somehow it happened. I barely made it through two bites of the chicken just to get something in my stomach. Then I tried the mac & cheese... OMG. I can't even describe the taste--I discreetly spit it into my napkin. Thankfully my daughter shared her okra, which was the only decent thing on my plate. Her "corn" turned out to be creamed corn, which she doesn't like. She thought she ordered regular kernel corn, so she was disappointed. She used enough ketchup to get down two chicken strips. My husband's roast beef was... interesting. It was more like a shredded roast-and-rice casserole. Not sure if that's even a thing, but that's what it resembled. He said it tasted good and ate it all, but even he couldn't touch the mac & cheese. He poured almost an entire salt shaker on his green beans just to make them edible. In the end, the best thing on the table was the cat head biscuit. Again, the staff was absolutely wonderful--truly the saving grace of this place. But as friendly as they are, the food alone isn't enough to bring us back.

And last week the drink section in the back wasn't cold at all and I spotted a manager Nick and told him he was so condescending and a week later the drinks are still warm.

I would not even rate it one star!!!

We stopped by The Nut Cottage at the suggestion of a bartender during our recent vacation to Helen,…read moreGA. and I was so glad we did. They are a small little store, owned by a husband and wife team, and they seem to really love what they do. They not only sell a variety of nut mixtures, but they also have some of the weirdest jerky's I've ever since. We purchased some kangaroo jerky and some smoked salmon jerky. The smoked salmon was by far our favorite of the two. They kangaroo jerky was just a tad too tough for my tastes. While we were there we also sampled some wasabi cashews that were amazing!

On our way to Anna Ruby Falls, we decided to stop by this shop and explore. Outside they had samples of seven different apple varieties as well as boiled and fried peanuts. Their Cajun and original fried peanuts were so good that we instantly bought a few bags. The store employee was very friendly and told us about the town of Helen and nearby cities. Inside the store has an ambiance of an old timey southern store selling quality hand made food products. I recommend stopping by Fred's and getting some good quality goodies for yourselves and as gifts.

Came here and there were several items that I needed to get from where a guy was working. I get it, you're working but you shouldn't be so wrapped up that you overlook customers. It's not like I was asking for help, it would have been nice for him to do the very least of moving out of the way. Or asking if he could grab anything for me. He was literally in the way of 4 of the 7 items I came for this visit. Just be more cognizant of your surroundings. Respectfully asking. I wasn't acknowledged by a single employee during the visit. That's odd too. On a positive note, kudos for having non-dairy pumpkin creamer.
