I go to Three Dollar Cafe every week and always have the best time! The food is amazing and comes out fast, the servers are fast paced and work super hard, and the atmosphere is great for watching any sporting event! I bring all my friends here and will continue to come back frequently! 10/5 stars if I could read more

Even though the food is cheap, so is the crowd. You don't know me, but strictly avoid talking to just about anybody at the bar. If I were a clinical psychologist, I would have a field day. What is the most toxic crowd I've encountered. Avoid at all cost the big boned, heavyset bartender name, Kristin. She is constantly stoned and has a really bad temper. She will Tashi just for sport. Often times when she leave the premises she will tell everybody at the bar the percentage tip you left. read more

There are no chefs here - just cooks. Here's a picture of the spaghetti and meatballs for $12. Pasta is a basic ingredient any newbie cook should be able to make. I ordered it a second time just to make sure I didn't run into a one-time bad cook. The lazy cooks scoop some pasta that has been sitting in water, dump it on the plate, and then toss on some "sauce" that is actually canned, diced tomatoes with some spices. See any sauce on this pasta? Look at the amount of water on this plate - they don't even bother to drain the pasta before they put it on the plate. I can't say the meatballs taste bad - because they have absolutely no flavor. Any beginner cook knows the most important ingredient in any kitchen is salt. How do you NOT put salt on meat? And the meatballs are rubbery because these guys don't know how that you're supposed to add breadcrumbs to soften them. I've also ordered the Cuban sandwich, which you have to attack like a Pit bull in order to tear off a piece of the pork. The customers and staff also don't believe COVID-19 is a problem, and most don't mask. This is an OK place to watch a sports event if you just want a beer and some generic wings or burgers cooked by minimum-wage, short-order cooks. Make sure to ask for salt on your food if you want to taste it. read more

I visit this place every other week. They are good for a consistent sports bar with a consistent experience. The first time I went I had a bad experience but I thought maybe it was just one waitress who spoiled it. I recommend that you get the wings well done & the French fries too. They do a good job. They keep it consistent. I go for the wings and beer pitchers. read more

We are frequent visitors almost weekly. The food is still consistent , even though my order was wrong... but the service has just gone downhill. We've been sitting here waiting for 35 minutes for our check after we are finished eating. The server has walked outside and then back in three different times, without bringing me my check which she has in her hand. This has happened probably the last 4 out of 5 times we have been here. Frustrating. read more

Had us a nice unplanned visit. Walking by we noticed the great outdoor patio so we decided to stop in for a drink and a snack. They Had MLS on the tv so I was sold right away!! Not sure about the name as I did not see any items that were Three Dollars. The service was fast friendly and helpful, we got the nachos and bleu cheese chips. The nachos were good quality ingredients and plenty of toppings. The chips were nice and I believe house made. Fun place i would love to return back to and grab some wings and brews and watch some sports. read more

First time..Wings were good , beer was cold and the air conditioning was either broke or off , it was definitely warm in the place.. Total sausage fest..Can't see goin back to this place read more

Food was fine, not great. Medium wings sauce tasted straight out of a franks red hot bottle. Felt bad for our waitress- she was working so hard, but had too many tables for one person. read more

The service is terrible, our server was rude with saying things like " is that enough for you" or " do you need more ". You have the host blowing up a glove making it a ballon, while the manager cleans the window. We sat not even 20 feet away from the bar, and all you can hear is the bartender cussing up a storm with the guys at the bar. The host & another server were stacking cups on top of each other while the host was proceeding to hold them, just playing around & the cups fell on her and she screamed loudly in the restaurant. I think this place needs better management and servers and all around better employers. Jenna was a terrible server. She would just point at us to get the plates to her instead of asking " hey can i get that out of your way". I am a server myself I know bad service when I see it. read more

Went here with 2 of my co-workers for lunch being we were in the area. I tried the fajita burger which was really good. Have to say it taste more like a philly but very good minus the onion. Co-workers had wings and the TDC burger. If you're ever at 3 dollar, you have to try the mozzarella sticks. Besides being huge they are really good. read more

Great spot, always in the mix. Good food and awesome place to watch sports. Highly recommended

Kind of a greasy spoon type of place. If you can get over the initial look and smell the food was pretty good!!! Large Salad -Romaine, cheddar cheese, cucumbers were delicious! Cedar dressing- Gross Ranch- Very good Burger- my mom liked pretty well. She liked the tomatoes also. The fries tasted like they would be great, if not for the old oil. 1/2 basket of fries- huge basket! Old oil. Could be delicious! read more

I drive delivery for Uber eats and Agree with the racist comments in some of these reviews. As a black womanly, no one said anything nasty to me but upon walking in I felt like I was not welcome there. read more

Cheap beers, good wings, classic American vibes. What else does one need to know? There are wood finishes pretty much everywhere, dark at all times of the day and sports playing in the background. It's a place you'd come to drink heavily on a limited expense budget or a spot to spend a very average night at where you just want to have a beer and relax. They have Stella on tap, which is my foolproof option. There is a neighborhood joint feel to the entire establishment. It's a type of place that's gradually disappearing from Buckhead, but you can find such establishments in many small towns across America. Frankly, don't know what else to say about this spot. It's not necessarily an establishment I'd frequent, but it's alright in my book. Everything seemed reasonably clean and the staff where quick. read more

Three Dollar Cafe is ol reliable. There's nothing special about it. It's got lots of tvs, beer, and bar food. There is nothing to write home about, but sometimes you just need to grab some beers and wings and watch a Monday night football game. And three dollar cafe is a good establishment for that. read more

I must say on service was horrible at the McDonough location. I'm not sure who cleans the floors but they didn't do a good job. The floor where we was sitting was super sticky to the point I had to keep peeling my feet off the floor. The cheese sticks we order was cold. Our waiter was inattentive to our needs. We kept asking for water and napkins which we received the water but no napkins. I got tired of asking so I just used the hand wipes I had in my purse because the dispenser that was on the table was empty. Just an all around bad experience. read more

Service started off horrible, I sat for 29 minutes before anyone even acknowledged I was there. Finally I waived a server over and he was great but that's just unacceptable to have people just sitting. I ordered hot lemon pepper wings and the nacho mountain which came with melted shredded cheese ‍ so I asked the server where's the queso or cheese dip he stated "that's the other location" lol I'm like "yo please bring queso" it's hard to say if I'll be back to this location. read more

service is okay but food is very plain, not a lot of flavor. Place is cool, a bit small overall 3/10

Worst customer service I've experienced by a manager. I have no idea how Peter is responsible for that establishment. Rude, disrespectful, and I will never do business there again. read more

GEORGIA Bulldogs Fans Beware! 4 pm when the GEORGIA Bulldogs came on, the manager changed the channels on the 5 TV at the bar...Two to the Clemson Game, Two to the Alabama Game. One to the GEORGIA game. Volume? The Clemson Game. No wonder the place was 90% empty. Not local GEORGIA neighborhood friendly. #GoDawgs Morrow/Jonesboro location read more

I have been coming to this bar for three years +. I have never in my life had a worse experience at a restaurant than I did tonight. The bartender was blackout and spilling alcohol all over the bar. (As a fellow bartender I usually tend to have leniency over stuff like this...but... not tonight.) the manager was not helpful at all. The bartender walked out twice within one hour that I was there without a full bar. It got to the point that the servers had to pour their own tables drinks. Sad experience at a fun bar. I most likely will never attend again based on how management handled it. read more

Limited menu due to staffing, but DJ did an outstanding job serving my lunch at the bar. The food options available, tenders and burgers were delicious. read more

Very rude waitress. We felt unwelcome and very uncomfortable. We will not return to this location...ever.

We'd heard from a friend that this is a great place to bring your kids, so we tried it out for a Saturday lunch after games at NYO. Sitting on the patio was perfect as the noise from Roswell Road and the TVs will cover up the noise of your children. Kids are given printed kids menus to color with provided crayons. The choices are pretty much what you'd expect for them - burgers, tenders, grilled cheese, etc. We started with the cheese dip, and the kids' minds were blown by the multicolored chips. I think the dip is a little bland, but they are doing a good job of catering to the kids palate. For the main, I got the American salad with fried chicken tossed in buffalo sauce (aka Buffalo Chicken Salad, but they don't call it that), minus the cheddar cheese (I'd rather have the blue cheese in the dressing). Everything was A-OK. I would've prefer smaller cuts of the ingredients, since the chunks of ice berg and tomato were huge. They have lots of beer, with less than a dozen on draft and several dozen in bottles. There are plenty of TVs to view whatever sporting event you'd like, and a couple of video games right at the back parking lot entrance. Service was prompt and efficient. read more

I've always heard of TDC but never had the privilege to eat at one. If you are looking for a good sports bar this may be the spot for you. They have a patio and An inside area with plenty of tv viewing options. I came late on a weekday for the NBA. There is huge parking but I definitely can see parking issues on week night. Now for the food. I ordered the TDC burger while my friend order the BBQ spicy wings. My burger was good for a sports bar burger. My friend enjoyed her wings saying they were the right type of spicy. The fries Were better than expected. Normally steak fries are not crunchy so I was not expecting any major. When I bit into my fifth fry of crunchiness I knew they were amazing. read more

These wings are legit, definitely the best I've had in Atlanta. They claim to be famous, and for once I wasn't oversold. I went here and decided between their wings and burgers. I had the chipotle hot (because I love chipotle that much) and regular hot. Regular hot not so spicy neither is chipotle --- but both were extraordinarily tender and had great flavor. I had a decaf coffee as well. Brewed fresh. read more

Three Dollar Cafe has been an outstanding buffalo wings place for decades. Simply outstanding! Wings are perfectly cooked and sauced. Great service. All around stellar experience. read more

Pre-covid we would come here weekly. Peter, the manager, is the nicest human being and always takes the time to say hello to me and my family despite how busy he usually is doing every job in the restaurant. I was SO happy to see them on uber eats and I ordered immediately. Their wings are the best in the city and remain my favorite- delivery or dine-in doesn't matter. They're delicious. Their bleu cheese chips are also a favorite; I got them delivered with my wings and they taste just like they do in the restaurant when heated up in the oven / air fryer. Bleu cheese dressing is also fantastic. It's going to be a challenge for me not to order from here weekly. Please support TDC! We love you guys! read more

Having been to the Peachtree Corners location many times I was very disappointed with the Sugarloaf location. Very poor service and the place was very dirty. read more

The food is pretty good. But, the service is so awful that we'll never go back. We went about 3 or 4 times thinking foolishly the service might improve. It didn't. Waitstaff is evidently not trained. They are very rude and act like it's a big inconvenience to take your order. read more

It's exactly what you'd expect from a wings place in Atlanta. They were good. The food came out fast and the atmosphere is fun.

Large portions, low prices and wifi. This is a perfect place to stop get some work done between errands. Atmosphere is grunge pub and when I visited for lunch I was the ONLY female diner. That being said the place is welcoming although a little dark. Head 's up: It's a little tricky leaving the lot. read more

I've been to here several times can be spotty. One thing that has always irked me the music played at 3DC. It's top 40. Which doesn't make sense because the clientele for the most part are Gen X or Baby boomer age. read more

I met some friends at Three Dollar to have chicken wings. I loved my wings - they were fried perfectly and the sauce was so spicy it burned my nose, just the way I like it! I prefer fried wings to grilled, and it's a rare restaurant that fries wings anymore. (Also noted that this Three Dollar does not use oils w/ trans fats, so I was feeling even better about the fried wings.) The restaurant was only half-full so we didn't have a problem with seating or service. I requested extra hot wing sauce and received it quickly. The TVs all worked and one of my party enjoyed watching the golf tournament. The atmosphere was family-friendly and laid back. I would go back for the wings and the atmosphere. It was nice to go to a place and chill and not feel like I had to wear tight jeans, a cute shirt, and strappy heels. read more

i am never disappointed when I come here. the food is delicious and the servers are attentive and friendly.

My weekly wing joint. Always good consistent big wings, cooked to perfection. Clay's used to be my favorite for wings, but at least this location of 3 Dollar has taken the crown. I come for lunch at least one day a week, stop and say hi. read more

I have seen a few of these sprinkled around the city but haven't made a habit of stopping into any of them. When a buddy and I were planning on getting together one Sunday for a quick bite and brew to catch up he mentioned this place and it was on. There is a large gravel parking lot behind this place so you should be covered in this department. The awning, entrance and hostess stand is facing the lot and had my inner compass all messed up by the time we got up to leave.. or maybe it was the beer. We grabbed a booth and a Sweetwater beer that helped fund their Chattahoochee initiative. The place is smoke friendly but it was spread-out and well ventilated enough to not bother me. The place had plenty of big TV's, a large bar and several tables and perimeter booths. They also offered a great dim, cool, cave-like environment that we enjoyed on a very hot and sunny summer afternoon. My buddy started off with their blue chips and finished with the wings. While ordering the waiter insisted he tried the mango habanero flavor - turned out to be quite delicious. I sampled one or two of them and thought the wings were better than decent but not my favorite. They tasted only slightly rubbery and the size of the wings were good - not the mini ones I've seen at some true bar food venues like this. Finally, the sauce was creative and tasted in-house which made me like them a little more. I went with the nachos. One of my go-to's when I am decently hungry and find myself at an unknown bar-like spot. I went with the half order of the chicken nachos after the advise of both my buddy and the server. It was a solid decision. The chicken was not watery but had it's own distinct flavor. It was accompanied by the usual sour cream, jalapenos, olives, lettuce, cheese, and guacamole. The chips were also good and in most cases thick enough to take the weight of their load. Solid, well-priced pub grub. Indoor/Outdoor Seating with a porch out back that also has TV's. 3-stars only because every place starts with 4 from me. I think they dropped a star because I was not blown away. Worth a stop-in if you have a game to catch or an afternoon beer hankerin'... Until next time CHEERS ATLIENS!!! read more

Food and service are always excellent. Kristin is one of the best bartenders in the city

Came here at 10 on a Sunday night. It's so cool that they don't close til late so I don't have to resort to fast food . I got 10 lemon pepper wings all flats. They were pretty good . I also ordered the fajita burger.. basically a burger with sautéed peppers and cheese... for some reason the lettuce was on the side.. which was fine but it was shredded lettuce .. The fries tasted like they were fried in old oil .. My boyfriend got the fried grouper and onion rings . He enjoyed his burger but he didn't like his onion rings .. in his words " they were just nasty and burnt " read more
