Stopped by Cottage House Restaurant in Cleveland and this place is exactly what you want if you're…read morelooking for a solid, no-frills Southern breakfast. First off, the setup is super easy. 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.

We settled on Clyde's Tavern for a late lunch midweek after picking up…read moreammo from Cleveland Liquidation on Helen Highway. Found parking right in front on the square & there is also a little bit of parking in the back. Even at 2 pm this old timey establishment on the square in Cleveland had many tables occupied. We were pleased with our selections, particularly the Smokey Burger with its generous slice of bbq brisket that we requested 'on the side'. Brisket was tender & properly smoked & the lean burger meat was fresh not a frozen patty. Clyde's has a small & welcoming bar area facing the front dining room. They have several beers on tap & serve hard spirits as well. My friend, who ordered the fried chicken tenders enjoyed her meal. Clyde's has a front & back dining area & they schedule live music on weekends. You can't go wrong for a casual unhurried lunch at Clyde's.

Wasn't quite sure if we would find a soul food restaurant while in the area visiting Anna Ruby…read moreFalls and we asked and were not disappointed by the souls food restaurant that sits on top of the hill. The building reminded me of a NJ diner but more modern. We went at lunch time and I ordered the Auntie's Special (1 - meat, 2 vegetables, choice of bread (roll or cornbread), drink and dessert for $14.49. A lot of good tasty food for the price. The chicken livers were nice and tender. I didn't really care for the peach cobbler it was a little to soupy for my taste but everything else including the sweet tea made up for it.

Well.....we were so disappointed. We each chose the meat and 2 special with drinks and dessert. You really can't beat that deal! We both chose country fried steak and mashed potatoes. I chose brown gravy, fried okra and cobbler and he chose white gravy, broccoli casserole, and banana pudding. During Covid, I had stocked up on instant mashed potatoes, and we both recognized that these were indeed the very brand we had in the cabinet at home. I recognized the brown packet gravy, and he reported the white was extremely bland, much like the decor. The okra...looked like it was from a frozen bag. Uniform pieces, no flavor. And it's summertime. Fresh is right outside the door around here. You can't pass that as the real thing. He said his broccoli casserole tasted burnt. The country fried steak was the star of the show. Until I got home and it came back up. The location is fine. The potential, stellar!! But folks, soul food needs soul. As much as we wanted this to be a hit, it was a very sad miss.

Had the Philly Cheese Steak with onions, no peppers but that was okay. Food was prepared correctly and served hot, French fries were excellent and fried just right so as not to soak up the ketchup and then become wimpy. They do a great take out service also seen many orders being picked up at the counter and the drive thru window. Highly recommend you check this place out if you are in town. Plenty of parking available in the lot. Keep up the great work will have to try one of their ice cream sodas next time in.

I always calculate my order total before checking out. My meal was supposed to be about $17.50,…read morebefore tax or card fee, which would've been an additional 10-11%. When I paid, the total was $22.00! Looking online, it appears that they have increased their menu prices without updating the actual menu given to customers.

This has not let me down in the slightest. The greens were amazing, every time I come back to Georgia I find another amazing place to enjoy BBQ. I'll be honest they were already out of brisket, so I didn't get to try that. I did come in a bit later. But the ribs, omg so good. Helen is around the corner, so that town gets a lot of traffic... just go around the corner and you will find this spot. IMO much better food and worth the few min drive. Don't get me wrong Helen is great to visit but this bbq spot is more of a Georgia staple, not an attraction. You come here for good food. Love the Carolina style sauce too!!

Seating was roomy and comfortable. Bathroom clean. Our group got a variety of things from the menu and off menu. The pulled pork sandwich was right on. Couldn't eat all of so we saved it and ate it with some eggs at breakfast. Yum! The fried okra was hot and crunchy, and quite the serving. The little dish was heaped high with deliciousness. I got the Brunswick Stew, which was not on the menu, but on the specials board at the entrance. I never miss a chance to eat Brunswick Stew. It was just right. Not too spicy. Not too vinegary. I got a bowl and shared it. I also got the baked sweet potato. That was a real treat. The potato was hot and cooked to silky smooth. It's served with this brown sugar butter that made it a dessert. One our group got the fried apple pie with ice cream. I'm not a fan of fruit pies, but I did have a nibble of the crust. It was light and crispy. Not heavy, tough and crumbly as I've seen done by others in the mountains. I would almost eat a serving of fried crust dough. Serve with that butter for the sweet potato, and some ice cream-THAT would be awesome. On your way out don't forget to pick up some grits or pancake mix from Logan Mill. It's the only grits I serve at my house.

The view of Mt Yonah was stunning, the setup of the place was cool, and the ambiance of their inside/outside area was nice. My two complaints are that it got pretty cold in their glass windowed area- they had a small heater but it wasn't doing much, and they don't give free cups of water here. I'd recommend adding larger heaters and getting a couple of them, considering how cold it can get in North GA in the winter. I'd also recommend giving free water instead of requiring that people buy bottled water. If you were in the Atlanta area, not offering free water would be a code violation. Not sure if that applies here but just to be courteous to your customers you should be doing that. Back to the positives... I ordered a coffee based frappe with the "glamping" flavor (white chocolate and marshmallow) and I thought it was amazing. 10/10. I would definitely order it again. My order came out in a decent amount of time and the employees were friendly. The prices were reasonable and we found parking easily. I would happily come here again! I think there could be a couple improvements (the water issue is why I deducted a star) but if they address those few things then I'd think the place is a 5/5 :) I would come back! (And bring my water bottle with me lol)

But at least open another register so it goes faster. The wait just to get to the register was 20 minutes and the wait for the food is 40 minutes.

It is maybe worth a visit once, but don't make it the regular.

Today my husband and I went in about 2:00 and there were only a couple of people there. Mallory and Brittany both waited on us. However, the cook was more interested in talking to the customers including his daughter and granddaughter than doing his job. We had already eaten and were waiting on our waffle (which my husband likes to eat last). We waited and waited. The cook finally remembered he had a waffle cooking and, of course, it was burnt when. He went to get it. I watched him throw it away and start another one for us. Then he started showing a young girl his arm. Don't know why, but o very again he forgot about our waffle. I finally told Brittany that it should be ready and we didn't want it to burn again. She sent someone to check on it and when that same cook brought it to us, he said sorry about that. Well it wasn't yet burnt but more done than usual. Everyone working there was new since our last visit which was a shame because we have never had such bad service.
