The staff seem like they're all family and happy to be working together. Everything is made to order, so this isn't a fast food restaurant, but it is delicious. We ordered the patty melt combo with fries and the Stringer Special--see menu photo for details. It was extremely satisfying. If you live in the area I'm sure you know about The Mill. If you're passing through--it's worth the stop.

The Steak & Spuds fell in to my husband's mouth at a rapid pace that the song of Florence & The Machine's Dog Days Are Over rang out like an anthem. Their brown gravy is just. Like. my. Irish. Mother's. Impeccable and rich. My Shepherds Pie was delicious and although the cheese was a little intimidating, perfectly balanced. My Smithwick's Irish Ale was the perfect accompaniment with the food. Our server was in training. We sat outside and he and his trainer quickly approached us to take our drink order and make recommendations. They were attentive and pleasant. We wouldn't have known he was in training! The bonus is they have their own parking lot so it's easy to roll on out to your car from app the good eats!

I've come here a few times but to be honest, it's usually been after drinking around town and at…read morelocal wineries so food quality wasn't a big deal. This time we came after hiking all day and sat outside with our dogs. Ambiance-touristy Irish pub. It's a big place that still tries to be Irish-ish. They fail but it's a worthwhile effort and people seem to like it. One issue with the design-it's a huge place but they have 2-single person bathrooms-one next to the bar and one on the second floor. I don't even understand how you get a building permit with that occupancy and so few bathrooms. My wife and I each got a burger, sub veggie patty. They are getting 2 stars for the fact they don't upcharge for the vegan patty. Everyone upcharges for a veggie burger, so this is an impressive give-a-way to customers. However, I added mushrooms and roasted red peppers, which added $2 each, and gluten free sandwich bread, which was a $5 upcharge. First, those veggies should not be a $2 upcharge each. That's obnoxious. Your menu burgers have toppings and are cheaper than a plain burger with 2 veggies. But, I am not taking stars away for the upcharge. I saw them, I accepted them. My problem is that with those changes, this was a $25 burger at an Irish pub in north GA and it tasted like a $5 burger from an Irish pub in north GA. It was dry, unseasoned, and very bland. You charged me $5 for 2 slices of bread from a loaf that costs $7.99 retail. A red pepper is $0.75 cents, maybe, retail, and for a couple teaspoons you charged me $2. Who knows what mushrooms cost, but the point is, for two toppings and sub 2 slices of sandwich bread, you charged me for a high-end steakhouse burger and served me a terrible backyard grill burger. On top of that, I ordered a whiskey (knob creek) on the rocks. On my check was a $2 rocks charge. So...you charged me $2 for ice? It makes no sense. It's the same amount of liquor. When I asked the server about it, she said because they pour an extra 2 ounces in. Obviously she lied because she had no clue what she was talking about. First, why would adding ice equal and extra 2 ounces? Maybe if I asked for an up martini or something, but I am adding volume, so why would you also add liquor? Second, my whiskey was $13 and a restaurant shot is 1, maybe 1.5 ounces. Do you really mean to tell me you gave me an extra 2 shots, maybe an extra 1.33 shots of a $13 liquor for $2 only because I asked for ice? I'm not an idiot. So, poor food, lying service, and unreasonable upcharges. I'm not coming back

Another fantastic, wonderful and colossal experience here at Foothills Café…read more Had a delicious family lunch with my daughter and her uncle. Hi, my usual 1/2 pound cheeseburger on ciabatta bread, with coleslaw and French fries. Daughter had their delicious chicken fingers with okra and french fries, and my brother had the 1/3 pound bacon cheeseburger, with coleslaw and fries, all outstanding! You are missing out if you do not come to Foothills Café on your travels to Dahlonega!

The waitress didn't write anything down as far as taking our order and never checked on us once our food arrived. We ordered a cinnamon roll which we never got. Pancakes were doughy and something was just off about the whole thing. Hope they can get their act together and do better.
