The Village Burger has been a go-to place for may Georgians, simply because the burgers are that darn good. You can get all the fixins your heart desires, then add their deliciously seasoned French fries, or their fried-to-perfection onion rings for a meal you’ll never forget.

Yelp Hildebrandt's

This 19th century grocery serves up deli-style sandwiches that will take you back. No-frills and all flavor, Hildebrandt's is the kind of place where you'd sit and chow down while reminiscing about the old days.

Roadside staples in Georgia always, always include barbecue. That’s why Country’s Barbecue is such a nice stop. You will be able to feast on finger-licking-good barbecue, plus sides like mac-n-cheese and corn casserole. It’s a true Southern meal all in one fell swoop.

This little roadside restaurant is a small-town gem. Make sure when you visit you try the rib plate, with a side of beans and macaroni and cheese. You won’t be upset with the food at this barbecue shack.

This historic and fun place to eat not only has extremely great food, but the ambiance is quite entertaining. The portions at Poole’s BBQ are always huge, so get ready for a big meal worth raving about. If you need a tip, the brisket is to-die for.

Get ready for moist, flavorful, crunchy-on-the-outside chicken from this roadside restaurant. Big Chick oftentimes has a line outside for people who are ready to feast on their famed chicken. Make sure you also order the side of cornballs—absolutely heavenly.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. This no-frills roadside stop makes some of the best barbecue around. Order the plate with their incredible coleslaw, plus a bowl of the Brunswick stew. Smother everything in the famed sauce and you’ll be in barbecue heaven.

Editor's Note: Nu-Way Weiners is permanently closed.

The original Nu-Way Weiners is a roadside restaurant that’ll have you coming back for more. The slaw-dog is worth ordering two, while the Scramble dog has some delicious chili-style topping that will require a napkin. Make sure to get it all the way for the true experience.

The Christian-mission-based restaurant is not what you would expect, especially when you try their delicious menu. From the meatloaf to the fried green tomatoes, the creamed corn to the squash casserole, you won’t be disappointed with the food or the service here.
