Highly recommend for a quick serve sit down place. The waitresses were super friendly and asked several times if they could get us anything else or refills read more

Rabbittown Cafe - Brought this out 3 min ago already gone - Southern Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

The food was good old fashioned meat and side. Service was quick getting through the line and ambiance dated but authentic. They don't spend money on decorations but spend their time making good solid food. The sweet tea was proper sweet tea!! read more

Rabbittown Cafe - Lunch with chicken pot pie, mashed potatoes with gravy, sweet potato, and sweet tea. Biscuit wrapped in paper. - Southern Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

We love this place! Not fancy, but honest food at fair prices. Staff is efficient but super friendly and helpful. Fairly large dining area that usually fills up. My only complaint is I wish they would expand their hours. Definite recommend! read more

While visiting my sister that lives in Alto she suggested we go here on April 16. She has been here many times and said it was very good. She was correct, food was very good. The waitress helped with our drinks to the table and came to check on from time to time. The building looks like it's been there for awhile but the food makes up for it. The cafe definitely gets the business with a lot of locals coming in. I would recommend the cafe if you're in the area. read more

Rabbittown Cafe - Southern Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

This was a cafeteria style eatery. The outside was a bit meh. It's attached to a worn down gas station/ shopping center? It could definitely use an update. Inside there was a line wrapped around the building so it had to be good. They had a great selection for breakfast and the ladies were all very friendly. The fried chicken, biscuit and gravy with eggs was great! The ham was very salty and not so great. They had a nice variety of desserts. Overall, food was tasty, staff is friendly and the decor could use an update (a bit dingy). read more

Good food . People. And hospitality!!! Real southern food. Attention to detail is to be commended

If you have a problem with your food or ask for a refund they will only get offended and extremely rude with you! No accountability from this cafe period! I got hung up on and told if I didn't like the food, don't come back. This is how we treat our compatriots? Not in America it's not! read more

the building is not impressive but was encouraged by the full parking lot. once inside was unimpressed when discovered food served cafeteria style, but was very pleasantly surprised at the great tasting food. read more

Love the food and the ambiance....and especially the FRIED CATFISH! IT IS THE STUFF! Just the sweetest bunch of folk you ever want to meet..down home cooking...southern style.. Lol read more

Food is good and affordable. Staff is friendly. I go there with my elderly mother. The rabbit statue out front is a hoot.

Thursday morning my daughter and I went to Rabbit Cafe. You go through cafeteria style line. Don't need to get tray they just start your order, well actually there was fruit on ice in closed containers. Got one! Had later in day. Fresh and good. Fried chicken, pork chop, sausage and Bacon just brought out by cook. Fresh eggs, fried and scrambled also fresh . Huge biscuit. Potatoes, cut square and good. 3 gravy choices. Salsa sauces. I had bacon, very generous serving. 9 pieces actually biscuit and milk gravy. Check out get drink cop and eat...yummy. A lovely young lady (I'm 77 so they are all young) came by our table to check on what we needed and brought it right back to us. Great fun and food . read more

Old fashion country food. I don't think the menu or decor has changed in 30 years! But it's good! read more

Rabbittown Cafe - Beef liver and onions. Green beans and mashed potatoes and gravy. Super yummy! Just like grandma made. - Southern Near Me - Gainesville, Georgia

I found Rabbittown Cafe through all the positive Yelp reviews. As others have already noted, this place works cafeteria-style. Line up, tell them which items you want on your tray, pay at the cashier. I arrived around 8am on a weekday with about 12+ people in line, but it still moved fairly quickly. This is straight, no frills, homestyle, Southern cooking. What makes this place great are the prices. Got a tray of country fried steak, two fried eggs, and potatoes for a little over $5. Rabbittown Cafe is definitely worth checking out if you're in the Gainesville area. read more

Stopped in on the way to NC for a bite. Not really at all what we were expecting. This is a cafeteria-style place where you grab a tray and some utensils and proceed through the line in a school lunchroom reminiscent way. The food itself isn't bad, but this place is all home cooking so if you're watching what you eat, probably better to stop elsewhere. My kids had fried chicken tenders, fries and Mac and cheese. Chicken was bland, fries were hot and crispy and neither one finished their mac and cheese. I ordered the chicken and dumplings, fried okra and field peas. The chicken and dumplings were good except there were no dumplings. Being from the south and it being one of my favorite dishes, I was very disappointed. The dumplings are a pretty important part of chicken AND DUMPLINGS!! The okra was crisp, but lacked flavor, but the peas were pretty good. Service was overall good. I'm sure there are things you come here and order every time and things that you just don't. There were lots of locals in there, so obviously there's something to this place. Maybe I should have gotten the meatloaf or roast beef or something, but we just didn't enjoy it as we hoped we would. read more

While heading back to FL from NC/Helen, GA, we wanted to find one more local, off the beaten path spot to try out. Rabbittown Cafe was on our route home and looked like they would have some good, country style cooking. The restaurant is located in a plaza with a large rabbit statue facing the road. I was curious about this statue and did some Googling. Apparently, Rabbittown used to be its own little sparsely populated hamlet before Gainesville absorbed it. Gainesville has a life size statue of a chicken since they are known for poultry, so the area formerly known as Rabbittown erected a much larger than life rabbit statue as a homage to their history (rabbit was a common meal of the residents during the time period.) I thought this was an interesting story behind the area. Anyway, back to the restaurant! The place is set up cafeteria style. They had several lunch entree options and multiple sides to choose from. I opted to try the chicken tenders with mashed potatoes and white gravy and mac and cheese. You also get a choice of bread so I chose a biscuit. My boyfriend got Salisbury steak as his entree and chose the same sides as I did. The staff members were friendly and the line moved pretty quickly. The biscuits here are huge and tasty. The mashed potatoes were creamy and the white gravy had a yummy, peppery taste. The mac and cheese was also good. The chicken tenders were a bit bland, but juicy and had a nice crunch. My boyfriend enjoyed his Salisbury steak as well. They also open early to serve breakfast and those options sounded tasty as well. The meals are very inexpensive also. We paid around $15 for two meals including tip and that also included our beverages. I even ended up with leftovers since the portions are large. If you're in the area, Rabbittown Cafe is definitely worth stopping in to for a yummy meal. read more

We were visiting from California and this was our first stop. It's cafeteria style where you get a tray and go through the line and tell them what you want. Atmosphere: very casual and welcoming Service: Excellent! Waitress knew we were from out of town and welcomed us with a smile and even gave us some great facts about the town Food: Fresh and delicious. Everything was amazing. Their biscuits were the best! As well as their beans. Can't wait to go back! read more

Rabbittown Cafe is open from 6:00am to 2:00 pm everyday. Not the hours listed in Yelp. We have been to the restaurant every day of the week during their normal hours for years. Yelp needs to correct the hours. The food is good there. Good southern cooking. read more

I love the lunchroom style they have in their restaurant. The food is great and the service is even better!

If you are looking for a home cooked reasonably priced breakfast - Rabbittown Cafe is your place! My husband has been to this location several times, and has been wanting me to give it a try! The restaurant is located in a strip mall, and is cafeteria style. So many yummy breakfast choices (biscuits, eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, gravy, etc). Stand in the line and let the friendly staffers know what you would like (there is a menu on the wall). We arrived just before a crowd, but the line does move quickly. Food is pretty good, and is definitely reasonably priced. Oh, tell the kiddos to look around and see all the rabbits in the restaurant (not live ones of course). There is also a giant concrete rabbit in the parking lot). read more

The 16 year old Mexican girl on station two felt empowered to discipline customers when in fact it was her and her co-worker that were treating customers with disrespect. Rude and I'll-mannered. Mr. Chan needs to look at hiring new staff that are courteous and well mannered. Food was over salted, loaded with sugar and unhealthy. Slop!! Be careful cause she will overcharge. read more

The food here is great I love coming here every weekend and I like the environment of the place

Come here for breakfast bc their biscuits are huge! The prices are pretty good too! Yes, this place may look crowded and short of being an upscale cafe, but the food is what you're after. I ordered the tenderloin biscuit while the significant other ordered two catfish and hush puppies with a side of mashed potatoes. My tenderloin biscuit was good even though I did need some salt and pepper. The biscuit itself was fluffy and yummy. The significant other raved about the catfish and how it was better than this one spot in Baltimore. The mashed potatoes was particularly good (with some additional seasoning) bc it was creamy and seemed to have been made from scratch. All of this cost around the $10 mark. Not too bad for so much food for two people. read more

Oh wow, there was a long line, but it went pretty quick. There wasn't a problem with finding a table surprisingly because the turnover of people goes fast. I had the #1 with scrambled eggs, sausage links, grits with cheese, and coffee. I didn't eat the toast since I was too full. The coffee was nice and hot. My grits got cold but that can happen anywhere. I was busy tasting everyone's food. The pancakes were good. MA ate 2 out of the 3. JO had potatoes & bacon. The bacon was overcooked (but I still ate some with my grits) and the potatoes were undercooked (K said). K liked the spicy sausage links, country fried steak, & eggs. The ham was super salty! JA didn't finish her food, but she had sausage links (want spicy next time), grits with cheese, & a huge biscuit. I was super full when I left. I can see dropping through with K again. read more

Rabbittown Cafe is a historical landmark to the local community. Their home style, country-flavored food has been served in this community for many years. Their breakfast, lunch and dinner specials are all delicious and you have several options to choose from when you dine in or take out. It's wheelchair accessible and offers great deals to customers regardless of who you are. Their beef tips are by far my favorite but their menu offers a broad selection.

We locals eat there frequently, courteous staff, experienced biz, down-home cooking, breakfast: biscuits gravy, much more. Lunch: beans, collards, broccoli casserole, meatloaf, chic tenders, fried chicken, catfish, catfish nuggets, creamed potatos, potato salad, slaw, hush puppies, steak & gravy, pork chops, rice- Not all is available every day-just a good variety offered daily. You can order burgers & more off the menu too but I go for the "line". I got there about 1045 one day, beginning to put lunch out but still serving breakfast. You won't leave hungry; priced reasonably. Not sure when they open for breakfast but they close for the day at 2:00 or 3:00. I'm sure they put in a long day. Beats Wendy's & McDonalds any day. read more

Man I love this place! Have been coming here for 10 plus years. Breakfast or lunch are both awesome! Huge serving sizes. Friendly staff. Don't be afraid of the line it moves fast. Great cafe! Come try it. Good country food! read more

Can't believe the website said they were open Friday night until 9 pm. Drove all the way thru beautiful Gainesville with people that can't drive any to see that they were closed. Good customer service. I guess it would have been to hard to update the business hours. Way to go We will not waste our time again ! read more

Fast service line/buffet style. Friendly staff n fresh hot Southern home cooking recipes. Everything we had to go was very good.

This food is the best quality for the price I have ever seen. I ordered a chicken breast to go with my eggs and I got 2 pieces of REAL chicken for like $3.15. Friendly efficient service. If you are passing through, highly recommended for a quick bite. You stand in line, kind of cafeteria/Ikea style, find a table and enjoy. Line moves quickly. My hubby and I ordered scrambled eggs, chicken breast, fried potatoes, 3 fried eggs, 2 pancakes and a milk for under $14. I watched another worker putting out salad bar fixings. All fresh, covered, impressed. read more

I went for breakfast, the food is set up like how you would walk through to get lunch in public school. I got the pancakes with sausage and a buiscuit and all of it was absolutely great. The pancakes were so delicious read more

This place is a local restaurant that has the absolute best food at the most incredible prices. Bring two people or 20 people and you will find yourself full, happy and not with a broken wallet. The line moves very quickly, but breakfast and lunch seem to be the most popular times. Dinner is also served and is also really really good, you just need to get there before it gets too late while the food is fresh and hot. The owner is an incredibly nice manAnd the staff is super kind. Generous portions and the cheapest prices make this for an unbelievable stop in Gainesville. Even if you have to drive a few miles out of your way, if you're in the area, this is a place you must stop at. Before you leave, walk out to the parking lot and get a picture with the worlds largest rabbit concrete statue and make your trip complete. read more
