Yesterday was Creature Comforts Brewing Company's 12th Anniversary. We have lived here since 2016 and have NEVER missed this party. Yesterday was no exception. I like to be first in line so I will show up early to get a table. We came prepared. I had charcuterie, chocolate and grapes. We were greeted warmly and checked on frequently. We saw ppl that we know. Beer World needs you. It is imported that you support your local craft brewery.

Store sold the known Creature Comforts brands of beer -including our favorite seasonal milk stout Kona Buni, logoed shirts and accessories and my personal favorite coffee liqueur - one of their newer products. The man who worked the register area also provided samples of products. He educated on content, processes to create and alcohol volume. There was never any pressure to purchase, just the opportunity to sample and experience the brand. It did lead to a purchase that was aided by the positive interaction from this gentleman and the ability to sample beers on tap in the larger dine-in area of Creature Comforts. I did enjoy the beers too. The outdoor area looked inviting, and will likely experience the next time I'm in Athens. Our visit to Creature Comforts was a great way to celebrate my Florida Gators men's basketball win over GA on their home turf!

It was a sweltering day outside and the A/C and cold beers were definitely a welcomed sight. The owner and staff we spoke with were so friendly and gave my brother in law (who will be close by now) the run down on upcoming Oktoberfest events and when the best times to visit were to avoid the insane college weekends. We had one of the most delicious pretzels I've ever consumed and I took precisely zero pictures of it because it didn't last long. Inside the shop is small but they have a big beautiful outdoor seating space with games at each table. We look forward to visiting again in the cooler months and checking out their sister store up the road.

You order your food up front and can grab it and take it outside. We enjoyed our pretzels and beer here, but wish we didn't have to wait inside for a while before getting our food (or that it could have been walked out to us). Prices were great for the location. Liked the string game outside (where you try to get the string on the hook). A great little stop for a quick, cheap bite. Not necessarily a place to linger.

This spot has potential but missed the mark a bit! Was craving for a nice good Bavarian Pretzel to…read moretry out as it's something that's a must when you think of German food. Gave it a try and felt like we receive nothing more than a frozen pretzel that was heated up and sprayed with butter in a can with salt sprinkled on top. Once I saw the butter spray can I knew. This local spot is more on the dingy and dirty side, inside and out. My experience while waiting for the order, while observing the interactions between the employees, didn't give a customer friendly vibe nor did anyone crack a smile. The funnel cake did look amazing as it was being prepared fresh to order. But I think if you wanna try a good Bavarian pretzel, might be better to try another local spot or restaurant as this pretzel was a large 10 inch one but was nothing better than a frozen store bought pretzel it seems.

Staff here is lovely. Even though we got here one busy night, everyone was attentive to what we wanted. The little one got a chicken tender plate with fries and a side of veggies, and my husband and I split the platter for two. Our waitstaff forgot our veggies, but quickly helped resolve this when we brought it up. The veggies came out tasting delicious. The platter for two was great, tons of meats and a great side dish of gut friendly foods. I wish the sauce was on the side, but it was a nice flavor. The reason for 3 stars was the musical entertainment. I wish there was an option for 3.5 stars, I don't think 4 stars accurately represents this restaurant. The musicians were so talented and got us all excited to be there. It was great to hear some guests know some songs, which added a unique atmosphere to this restaurant. We'd def go back, but prefer another German restaurant when visiting Helen.
