It's always a positive to me when I come to a restaurant on an odd hour and it's still filled up with patrons. The food was fresh I loved my patty melt and the pimento burger was very good as well.

They have a nice large covered patio space beside the river. You can relax and watch tubers floating down the river. There was live music playing. I ordered the ruben sandwich and brownie. The food was delicious and hit the spot. My server was fantastic and didn't leave me hanging long after my meal. I appreciate a quick check delivery, especially having a pup out in the heat. They have parking across the street but you can't stay there to walk around town. This a nice spot to go for a meal.

If you're looking for authentic German food with an amazing river view, this is the place…read more I went with four friends and, as always, it was an amazing experience. This was my fourth time here, and I always bring someone new and everyone always leaves impressed. We ordered the Schweinehaxe, a traditional German dish, and it was absolutely delicious, full of flavor and perfectly cooked. It's definitely something I always go for when I visit because it's a must-try here. One of my friends was seriously impressed. We also had the mashed potatoes, which were very tasty, and one of my friends ordered the meatloaf and loved it. Overall, the food is very authentic, with plenty of traditional German options to choose from. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere is very welcoming. There was even live music, which made the experience even better. Another highlight is the view, the restaurant sits right by the river, which makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place. It's definitely one of those spots you keep coming back to and want to bring new people to.

It's been around for years, old style charm, kind of a huge place when you walk around the whole area. Great food and beverages, but we just came for a drink and music because they were playing outside and it was breezy and not too hot so decided to stay for a couple of drinks. Although we just had drinks today, they're Reuben is fantastic, their shepherds pie is super good (can't remember if they do lay them yet, but I'm a lamb shepherds pie guy and a beef cottage pie guy) but we are in Georgia. A lot of people don't like lamb lol. Doesn't matter it tastes great. All of their burgers are great and the bangers and mash. I remember also reminded me of Ireland true to form. This place is always packed, great service great food great beer selection great craft drink selection if you're coming downtown Dahlonega stop by for a cocktail or lunch. You won't be disappointed. Highly recommend.!!

Probably one of my favorite restaurants in the area, Rampant Lion is clearly a family-run business…read morethat focuses on making social connections over quick get-food-and-go. It's pretty cool. I would never come here if I was in a hurry, but if you have 2+ hours to eat and want good food in a storied place with staff who will treat you like friends, you're going to love the Rampant Lion. NOTES: -In rural TN, it should not surprise you, but be aware that they have Trump displays in the restaurant. -The restrooms are single stall and accessed from outdoor. They're indoor restrooms - just the door to access them is on the outside. (No porta potties) They're solidly clean - just make sure to pack clothing that works for the temperature outside because you might be dipping outside a few times. -Parking lot is small and gravel. Relatively easy to get in and out of though. -Amazing gin selection with staff that *clearly* knows their gins. -Adorable photos of the owners on slideshow of their trip to Europe on the wall. It's adorably and clearly a couple who was on a good vacation. We've had a good chunk of their menu at this point. Pretzels: Delicious beer chese AND delicious pretzels. Quite a bit of food with this too. Bread, Oil, & Vinegar: Wasn't super fond of this one. A ton of oil in a bowl made it hard to get the right oil-to-vinegar ratio. Chicken Pie: Deliciously breaded with super-tasty french fries too. Served piping hot, so it took a bit to be able to eat it without burning myself but a wait well-made. Reuben: Partner absolutely loved it and said the bread was the absolute perfect consistency. SO much meat in there too (though he said it could use a bit of extra dressing). Bubbles and Squeak: Delicious. Just delicious. Zero notes, you should eat it. Beanie Weenies: Home-made right in the restaurant! My favorite thing on the menu. Super savory, semi-healthy (beans...at least?), and served super warm. Comfort food at its finest. Menu in-restaurant was different than online one on a few things.

We visited Vincent's Copper-top Restaurant for the first time. What a surprise! Even though I…read moredon't eat meat and had the ham "on the side", their Sunday brunch delivered the best "Eggs Benedict" I have ever eaten. The delicious Hollandaise Sauce kept me begging for more. The others in our group ordered the brunch meatloaf. The meat portion was huge, approximately 6" long by 4" wide by about 1 1/2" to 2" thick. It was served over a bed of mashed potatoes with a side of green beans. We shared an order of lava cake. Arriving with whipped cream & a scoop of vanilla ice cream all were greatly satisfied. The only negative is because the floors are wood, and not carpet, the acoustics are quite "echoey". Plus we arrived at the height of the Sunday brunch crowd. Therefore, this made it a challenge for our 93 year old friend with hearing aids to understand the conversation. The restaurant is a big hall with no booths. The chairs are comfortable. Our server Josh was great to make recommendations. Food was delivered hot. After eating I wandered out to a large outdoor patio. On Saturday nights there is often live music. The ladies bathroom is equipped with gorgeous duo copper sinks. The toilet booths are nostalgic "old school wooden", reminiscent of the church basement of my childhood. I look forward to going back to try their catfish meal!

We recently had a chance to visit Vincent's Coppertop Restaurant during the Thanksgiving weekend. The restaurant itself seemed a bit drab and dated, but when in Blairsville, do as the Blairsvillians do, and that includes saddling up to the bar at Vincent's. Our bartender's dour attitude somewhat matched the restaurants ambience. Probably one of the few places in Blairsville I wouldn't return to.

An authentic British pub that definitely feels like a go-to spot for a lot of the locals. You'll…read moreavoid a lot of the tourist traffic here with its unique vibe, and you'll come away with a memory of "that cute British pub" when it's all over. NOTES: -This place is run on bare bones staff. I'd guess maybe two cooks and the single server. It is not a place to come if you need quick service or quick food. They're very friendly (even if you're not a local!), but definitely come when you have a lot of extra time. -This place is not accessible in the slightest. You'll need to go up two flights of very steep stairs to make it to the front door. The stairs are on the old side, and I was concerned about one breaking. There is no elevator. -The parking lot is relatively small and shared with a nearby Urgent Care. It's gravel and grass, and people mostly made their "own" spot where they wanted. As this made for a haphazard parking lot with small margins for cars, I wouldn't let a newer driver park here. PROS: -Lots of unique British dishes. We've never seen somewhere serving Bubbles and Squeak and lots of other dishes. If you're not familiar with niche British dishes, you'll probably have to pull out your cell phone to figure out what some of this stuff is - and that's really fun. -Food is really good. It tastes like food-your-mom-would-make instead of gourmet takes on these dishes. It has a really authentic, small business vibe to it. -Unique beers on tap too. You aren't going to find Bud Light or Miller Lite on tap here. All of their beers are unique pub fare. They do offer some of the American favorites in a can/bottle, but this is a great excuse to try beers you wouldn't normally have access too. -Despite the older age of the building, the bathrooms are very modern and very clean. Most gas station bathrooms are in worse shape than the ones here. CONS: -It's definitely a small, "small margins" business, and all of the cons that go along with that. Food took awhile, upcharge for using a credit card, non-focal dishes may have been frozen/reheated/canned, and parking was difficult. That all being said, we're looking to come back again, and the atmosphere (and the taste of their unique star dishes) make it one of those places you'll actually talk about when you're done with your trip instead of forgetting that morning you simply went to Denny's to scarf down pancakes.

We finally resorted to placing additional orders at the bar and we paid there bill at the bar, too. All in all I won't be making a special trip for this. It seems like it's probably a cool place to hang out at night for drinks.

They have a great selection of craft beers, imports and both red and white wines, including champagne and prosecco for the celebration in your glass. The real draw to this place is the private patio that has the peaceful river running the length of the restaurant. They have some higher end entrees of filets, and also pizza salads, burgers, and wings and even food for the kiddos. If you make it through Cades Cove or finish up a nearby hike or river rafting in Townsend this is a nice relaxing finish to the day. Great space for catching up with friends for patio pints and looks to be pet friendly as well. So bring your dog and your fun out to enjoy the Abbey.
