Hoochee's is a small food truck with covered outdoor seating right along the Chattahoochee. It…read moreshares a parking lot with the tubing place next door, where restrooms are available. The best part is definitely the setting--you can sit and watch tubers float down the river while you eat. Just keep in mind there are no fans or air conditioning, so it can get pretty hot... The menu posted on the food truck/website is not the full menu, so make sure to ask for the paper copy. They're known for the Buddha Burger and also have some healthier options. The food was okay for me, but if you love greasy smash burgers, you'd probably rate it much higher. One thing I didn't love was the pricing. Prices have increased, and there is an upcharge for paying by credit card that I didn't see mentioned on their website. There are also no fountain drinks--everything is bottled and purchased separately. Service was great. The person cooking and serving us was very friendly and genuinely eager to tell us about the food, the location, and their sister restaurant (Hoochee's River basket). Overall, I'd stop by again if I were already in the area, especially for a casual picnic-style meal with a nice river view. The atmosphere/location is really what makes it unique.

Great spot to get away from the hoopla of the main strip in Helen, GA but still be somewhat close…read more It's about an 8-minute drive to this cute coffee house from Helen. It seems to be a local favorite because it was pretty busy when we arrived. We got the last spot in the parking lot. The lot is not paved (dirt and mulch); however, if you have a Tesla they have two charging units in the lot. Staff are very friendly and inviting and they do a good job of cleaning and maintaining the coffee station and customer seating areas. Prices are competitive to other businesses in the area, although the coffee is a bit expensive in my opinion, but it is delicious. I ordered an Americano and it was one probably the best one we had on our whole trip. Nancy and I both ordered coffee's, the Americano was $5.75 and her Coffee of the Day was $4.00. For our breakfast we decided on the Bacon Quiche $7.50 and the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit $6.95 to share. The Quiche was on point; it was much better than the Biscuit Sandwich. Don't get me wrong both items tasted yummy it's just the biscuit was quite dry. Nancy had to ask for Jelly to spruce it up. They didn't charge extra for the jelly and after adding the jelly the sandwich was actually the bomb; something for the menu development team to ponder. There is not a lot of seating here but it seems most customers are in and out quick except for a few that are working on laptops and whatnot. All-in-all, a great spot for a quick breakfast or brunch and fresh ground and deliciously brewed coffee. I recommend them if you are in the area.

We waited in a line that wrapped around the front but it was beautiful weather outside so we didn't mind. Once inside the vibe was friendly and helpful. We placed our order and waited in one of funky decorative rooms. My coffee was delicious. It was made just sweet enough. I had asked for half sweet and they delivered. They also had a lot of pastries and desserts. We had two of them. The red velvet dessert was a keeper. The prices are what you would expect. Not cheap but not overpriced either. Recommended.

You walk in, grab a tray, and you've got options. You can go through the hot bar and get served right there, pay, and be on your way... or order off the menu, sit down, and they'll bring the food to you. Very simple and efficient. The inside is spacious with plenty of seating, and there's also outdoor seating if you want it. Parking is easy too, which is a big plus, especially compared to the chaos you'll run into closer to Helen. Food wise, I always judge breakfast spots by the chicken, egg, and cheese biscuit... and this one held up. The chicken was tender, the biscuit was soft and fresh, and overall it was a solid start. The surprise for me was the hashbrown casserole. It came out good, but once I added a little salt, the flavor really popped. Definitely worth getting. The pancakes were also done right... nice crispy edges with a soft, fluffy inside. That's exactly how pancakes should be. Menu wise, they've got everything you'd expect from a Southern breakfast spot... biscuits and gravy, eggs, bacon, sausage, country ham, pancakes, omelets, and even lunch style items like burgers and plate meals if you come later. They also have a Coca-Cola fountain, which is always a win. Service was friendly, especially for early morning, and the whole place just has that comfortable, old-school home cooking feel. There is also a drive thru if you don't feel like leaving your car. Overall, this is a great spot if you want a good breakfast without the crowds. Simple, tasty, and easy.

You're gonna want to keep the top of your head ... because it tastes so good your head might explode from how damn good it is. Add in the crispy cut potatoes, a great pancake and a hot cup of coffee ..... and you have a meal that is out of this world good. So fairly priced too. Another killer breakfast is The Sampler... this has a biscuit, gravy, eggs, the most delicious sausage patty you ever tasted, traditional bacon, Canadian bacon, grits and either toast or a pancake. So reasonable in price too! Just the two best breakfasts in the hills! And you're gonna be a fat ass when you walk out. It's soooooo good and filling!! If you want a burger.... This place has without a doubt.... The best burgers and the best prices for them. I kid you not. No exaggerating needed. Home cooked and juicy with great beef! To make the place even more amazing is the cute mountain interior inside a log cabin exterior. To set your day right... ask for Tiffany, she is a sweet dear with a twinkle in her eye. Tiffany has been there and is super attentive. She could be their secret weapon. All the workers there and servers deserve praise for being so friendly and jovial. All with great personalities! Lots of parking too. We own Thunder Ridge Lodge a get away cabin for couples in Cleveland GA....and we tell all of our great guests to go there and eat. And ask for Tiffany. They all say it was the best breakfast they've had and a great price. Far better than eating in Helen. We're going there now!

I wanted to try their pancakes but didn't want a full stack, and our server Robin was wonderful in recommending the Sweet Start. One thing we really appreciated is that all breakfast entrees include coffee or tea, and the prices are already very reasonable. We were also pleasantly surprised to learn that even though we ordered specialty coffees, we could still enjoy complimentary refills of regular coffee. The restaurant has a charming and unique atmosphere, with every table looking a little different from the next. For my meal, I ordered the Sweet Start, which included one pancake, eggs, and bacon. I also appreciated the transparency from the staff. When I asked for an extra serving of their homemade pecan butter, I was informed upfront that there would be an additional charge....a level of honesty that's surprisingly rare these days. My husband ordered the Banana Nut French Toast comes with homemade whipped cream and homemade pecan butter, which also came with bacon. He added a side of eggs as well. Everything was delicious. I'm especially particular about pancakes, and I can honestly say they serve some of the best pancakes I've had. The food was excellent, the service was friendly and attentive, and what stood out most was how genuinely happy all the staff seemed to be. It created a warm and welcoming atmosphere that made our visit even more enjoyable. We would definitely return the next time we're in the area.

Craft beer is $8.99, domestics are $3.89, and they have PBR on draft for $3.50, nice! They also carry a great selection of 500 ml bottle German beer. I had to get an Ayinger Dunkel and followed that up with a PBR, which gave me a nice happy buzz while we shopped around. Their weekly bar menu has a special for each day and the items range between $10-$12, which isn't bad at all. We didn't order any food but the food that was coming out looked great. Staff were friendly and efficient; I would definitely return again if I was ever back in Helen. One thing to note is this bar is not very big so it can fill up quick during festivals and on the weekend, they do have some tables out on the patio and I'm sure the party can expand out to the lot; regardless, Betty's Porch is a great little hangout spot in Helen and I recommend them.
