BLAIRSVILLE, Ga. – The town square is central to life in downtown Blairsville, which is setting itself up to become a dining destination with a distinct local flavor.
It’s busy all day, but particularly at mealtime, when hungry townspeople, folks on motorbikes fresh off a day’s ride and visitors wanting a quick getaway from the busyness of life back home converge on restaurants surrounding the square and beyond to indulge in a taste of this mountain town.
“The restaurant scene is still young,” says Shawn Kight, whose restaurant, The Sawmill Place, is a popular breakfast-and-lunch eatery in town. “But the area is starting to come into its own. We’re hoping to see more chef-driven restaurants come to town. If Blairsville is going to become a dining destination, that’s where it’s going to happen.”
The mountains have called visitors for generations. Now, restaurateurs are setting the table for mouthwatering adventures.
