I went to TDC last night in McDonough. Not too busy around 8:30-9pm. I'm not sure if they were short staffed but everyone who came in they kept trying to seat them in the same one row of tables on the back wall very close together. Like very close! One couple refused to be seated and requested to be seated elsewhere. The food was great, hot and tasty. However, I ordered a cocktail (margarita) that took forever to come out and when it did it tasted only like Simply Peach juice. I called the waiter over to let him know. He didn't take it back to the bar but he said their policy was that all alcoholic drink sales were final. He also said he went to the manager and he said, "No". There was absolutely nothing he could do. I've never been to any restaurant where they were not willing to make good on something that didn't come out or taste right. The manager even came over to the table to clear it off for other guests coming in and he didn't even acknowledge or say anything about it. Just FYI for anyone going TDC- if you order a cocktail and it comes out tasting like a virgin drink- too bad!! I won't be ordering any alcoholic drinks from here again. read more

Food is good, if the server gets the order right. The salads are large, enough for a second meal. There is an array of things happening inside for entertainment. Enjoy eating at Three Dollar. read more

Food incredible, service is continuously outstanding and the ambiance of just the entire inside and outside is honestly the biggest highlight for me and it's what makes this my favorite out of town restaurant to visit!! 10 stars is what I'm giving the establishment ! Mind you, it's been almost 3 years since these pictures were taken so I would have to visit them soon to see how they are doing! read more

Wait staff and service has consistently declined. Went for dinner, no greeter, no servers around. Left to go somewhere else. Again

When I went to 3 dollar cafe it was okay. The fried pickles were good but that's about it. The bathrooms were absolutely disgusting and the claw machines are not working. The waiters were nice but busy and I can't blame them. Over all 3 stars yall could be a little better read more

The good- the fish sandwich is always great! Huge piece of crispy, yummy fish! The bad-In the past month or so we've ordered wings, onion rings and nachos. Three times the order has been terrible. The wings weren't crispy and drowned in sauce! The onion ring batter has changed with some weird seasoning added. They have been limp and soggy. Never have we had this problem! They used to be crispy and tasty even when delivered by Door Dash! The nachos have arrived with over cooked meat and mixed in with the chips that made the chip's soggy and unappetizing even after calling and requesting that the chips be separate from all other ingredients! In their defense, $3 has given us a credit for the order. The day manager, Shannon, was very accommodating and patient. We love this place and hope that the problems, which we feel are due to either a new chef or line cook, can be rectified. We'll see and update the review. read more

If Atlanta had a contest for the best wings, Three dollar Cafe would easily be in the final round. THey fry them up crispy. Side sauces are delicious. They started years ago when a Korean American moved here with $3 in his pocket and before you know it, there are 10 locations throughout the area. I've been to a couple and they are always consistent. Good selection of beers, and really good Philly cheese steaks too. They have a "secret sauce" that sets them apart. The vibe is totally a sports bar, so dont think you are getting anything fancy. But if you are looking for some good wings and solid beer selection, you cant go wrong here read more

Watch out for the draft beer! Looks like they don't clean their machines like they should. I ordered a Corona and my boyfriend got an Angry Orchard. His was fine, but mine tasted old and moldy. I told the server and asked if I could switch to the Angry Orchard too. She said only the manager could handle it. It took him over 15 minutes to show up. When he finally did, he said they'd check the machines and let us know in a few minutes yeah, that never happened. We finished our food and had to ask again. They called the manager back over and he just gave a bunch of excuses. We literally watched their staff pour out other beers because they tasted bad, so clearly they knew something was wrong. Still, they wouldn't take mine off the bill or switch it out. Also, the server mentioned they had others complaints about the draft beer. And to top it all off, I found a hair in my food after I was done eating. Definitely not from anyone at my table, we all have long hair, and this one didn't match. Honestly, just a horrible experience overall. Now I see why the place was so empty. I will say our server Abby was very sweet and stuck in the middle of us and the "manager" read more

Acknowledging customers and serving them. I walked in at 7:15pm this evening. I sat at a high top in the bar area. The restaurant was NOT busy. At 7:30pm, not a single server acknowledged my presence. I am very disappointed, and won't back. read more

Food and drinks was great! Nia was excellent and very attentive. Def recommend to anyone in town!

It's always a good time at Three dollar cafe. Menu items and drinks are fairly priced and a couple nights out the week they have a live Dj outside. Parking can be a hassle sometimes especially on Friday or Saturday night but if you get there early enough you will be fine. It's nice to have a place in McDonough you can go to with friends spur of the moment to listen to music and grab some drinks. Not all the menu items are great but you always get a good bit of food and for the most part, the service is always solid. The only bad experiences I have had has been with the people at the go station. I know it gets busy but a lot of time they are uninterested and it feels like you are bothering them. read more

This was my first time going to Three Dollar Cafe. It was literally the first restaurant that popped up on Yelp when I moved to McDonough, so I was super excited after reading all the great reviews. We sat on the patio because it was a beautiful day. Johnny was our server, and he was awesome! Very sweet and attentive and gave great recommendations. I was tempted to make my first meal the Cajun pasta, but I was craving a burger this particular day. And boy oh boy was I satisfied with that option. I had the Chipotle burger, while my friend had the Korean BBQ sandwich. My burger was cooked and assembled to perfection! The huge onion ring with the raw onion, tomato, lettuce and creamy chipotle sauce was absolutely delicious! And the bun was soft and perfectly buttered. I literally ate every bite, including the steak fries, which I'm not usually a fan of, but the meal was THAT good. I did get a chance to taste the Korean BBQ sandwich as well, which was also really good, but I'm happy I stuck with my selection. I can't wait to go back to try some of the other menu items. read more

I have never left a review before but I can't not leave one for what happened tonight. Our server was amazing, and the food was decent, but the problem lies with the drink. My friend and I ordered a frozen mango margarita to share, and it was awful. it tasted terrible, and other than the initial sips, we did not touch the drink and asked the server to take it back. Our server went to the General Manager, Laura, and let her know what was wrong and she refused to take it off our bill stating that all alcohol sales are final. I understand that the menu states this but my friend nor me saw the print on menu, and we were not informed until we went to pay that it could not be taken off. I paid 21 dollars for my meal, and then had to pay a whole 15 dollars for a drink that was terrible, when not just me and my friend disliked it, but a previous manager for the establishment also said it was awful. I just find it ridiculous that we were not able to get this drink taken off our tab when it was not touched due to how terribly made it was. read more

While traveling we like to stop at local places. Cane here for late dinner. Are outside because music was really loud inside. But outside, they had sports on tvs but thumping loud rap music outside. Ordered appetizer platter and boneless wings special. Portions are huge. We didn't need the wings. But now we have leftovers. Service was very good. One and done for us. read more

Best cheese sticks hands down. Always get great service. Great atmosphere for game days.

Location is extra loud & it's only half-full at 4pm on Sunday. Has dark divey bar feel inside, patio seating is available. Food took almost 30 minutes. Mostly the food was hot, fries were cold. Sandwiches looked good, but were bland. Country fried chicken tasted ok, but seasoning was lots of black pepper. read more

Great food! Great service! Great music Smiling faces! No compliments here. There's truly nothing to complain about. My TDC fish sandwich was absolutely amazing. The presentations was on point as the left all the toppings on the side for you to add on your own. I actually loved that. The grouper was super crispy and was extremely large. We enjoyed the music and atmosphere was nice and chill. If you want to great meal for under $20 bucks, lunch or dinner, come to Three dollar Cafe. They will get you right! Can't wait to come back and try the fish tacos. read more

It was after 9 and everything closes I up early in McD so we decided to go to this place. It's more of a sports bar and a mixed crowd. It's pretty loud and service was ok. I tried the fish tacos and asked what type of fish. They use whiting so I had it blackened for my tacos. I must say I was pleasantly surprised as they were really delicious, presentation was good. The toppings were very fresh , impressive and appealing. read more

Drinks are awful, most of them taste just like juice. I only go when I want the hangover burger. My husband order the Grouper sandwich they have on the menu, they bought it out and noticed it tasted different. When he asked they it was not even grouper. Well if that is the case, tell your customer its not grouper, it whatever you have on hand that day. That is very dishonest. read more

Basic sports bar. Ample TVs and space for watching sports alone or with friends (who will quickly become your friends whether rooting for same or different teams). The wet lemon pepper wings and steak fries were ok. The fried mushrooms were a thumbs down due to the breading and oversized mushrooms. The fried cheese cake was just ok. I didn't like the chocolate syrup that overpowered the cheese cake. Our server, Melinda, was super attentive. Plenty of free parking is available in the parking lot. read more

The management last night SHOULD BE ASHAMED!!!! Called ahead of time to find out when kitchen closed. Came in before 11:30 they told me I had till 12am to order then I tried to order and they told me the kitchen closed before 11. You all should not have penalized me for your lack of professionalism you all have going on between the kitchen and management. OK, let's talk about human decency. Yesterday I was told my father was diagnosed with cancer. I was very sad so I wanted to come for a drink, but I also needed to provide my household with food because that's my job. I called ahead of time to see what time kitchen closed I was told 1215. I arrived in the building prior to 1130. I made my intentions known that I was ordering food to go. They told me I had till 12am... see all the descrepancy starting.... I ordered two drinks and a six piece wing just so I wouldn't be intoxicated when I left . When I went to place my food order apparently they decide to close the kitchen early. They would not serve me my food even though they told me when I called ahead of time, the kitchen would close at 12:15 and when I was in the building, they told me I could still order food up until 12 I'm just gonna say that's not right. Apparently, the GM Laura was in the building and she did not care. I left, I paid but this night will forever hold a bad taste in my mouth for how this was handled while I was grieving. What's that quote? You might not remember what someone said but you'll always remember how they made you feel. I wrote this review while sitting in the drive-through at Wendy's. Your management should be ashamed! read more

I was in the McDonough area visiting and we decided to grab a bite while we were out. This location sits ducked off and looks small from the outside but once inside you realize how huge it really is. We were greeted with smiles and decided to sit at a tall table which allowed us to seat ourselves. Upon sitting, we were greeted by our server within 2 minutes and had our drinks within 4. We were off to a great start. The environment was very laid back with a afterwork meets neighborhood hot spot kind of feel. It also happened to be trivia night so it was exciting to see the teams involved in the game. I decided on quick bites and went with the mozzarella sticks and steak fries. My food arrived to the table hot and quick. Both of my plates were equally pleasing to my taste buds. The sweet tea was awesome as well and paired perfect with my salty decisions. LoL! I would recommend this spot if you are looking for a quick bite, a night out with friends, or, just an overall good vibe. No need to dress up, it's truly a come as you are vibe. Environment- 8/10 Service- 10/10 Food- 9/10 Price- $ read more

First visit on a Sunday night, we were promptly seated. Restaurant was busy but not full or overcrowded. Our server, who never told us his name had a face of boredom the whole time. All business and no personality... Seemed like he didn't want to be there. ‍ He took our order once we were ready. We had ordered drinks and my man's margarita was fine. My Bloody Mary, which was supposed to come with celery, a lime wedge, a slice of bacon and green olives came with none of those. Our waiter was doing his job attending to other patrons and when I asked about the garnishes, he said "ok" and swiftly walked away. Came back with a couple of celery and a piece of bacon on a small plate, said "There were no more olives" while walking away. Lordt. Food wasn't stellar but it's good when you just want to have food with your friends and have some drinks. Pecan Bleu salad The best out of what we have was the salad. BUT the chicken was lacking flavor. Even with that, it was the best from what we ordered. Chicken wings It was good. Just wish that if they used wet flavors, that it was spread evenly on the wings. Also wished that there wasn't a puddle of sauce underneath. And the celery... so muchhhh celery. Squash Casserole Barely any squash, mostly cheese and some weird goop. It didn't taste horrible, but it would make you wonder, what is this? It was overly salty sweet, like whoever made it was in a cycle of "oh it's too salty, lemme add a bit of sugar... not it's too sweet, let me put a little salt.." The manager was the only one who checked on us during our visit. We had a better experience thanks to her. She checked on us multiple times, actually had some convo. Bar announced last call and said something about patrons getting orders within 30 min or so, so they can get more hammered... Uhhh, WHAT? Oh and staff doesn't wear masks either. Just FYI. If you like to be reminded how it was going out in Pre pandemic times, come here. Bathroom needs more care too pls read more

As a sports bar, lots of tvs and great beer selection. Standard pub fare. Above average in quantity and taste. Would have been 4 stars if not for the blaring rap music that made it hard to talk. We were traveling through but will not stop back next time. read more

Decided to pop in by myself this early afternoon. I sat at the bar and someone came to greet me almost immediately. I ordered the fried pickles and they were hot and waiting in front of me literally 5 minutes after I ordered. It is a bar, so it's nothing too fancy. Music plays over the speakers and people shoot pool in the back so though it isn't extremely noisy, it's not quiet either. My pickles were really good. I'll be back soon. read more

Waitress got our order wrong. then it took almost 30 mins to get our food and waitress didn't come by once to check on us or explain the long wait.

Racism still exist in 2025. I had the pleasure of receiving the worse service and I was ignored during my visit. I am a regular at Three Dollar Cafe and I have always had mixed reviews with the service. Most times bad, sometimes good. To get to the point, I arrived on 6/22 to meet my friends for drinks; Lucas treated me as if I did not exist, ignored me when I asked for anything and he kept telling me "Wait a minute" while servicing everyone at the outside bar. I did not understand why he was treating me bad until I realized I was the only person of color outside at the bar. I was patient, friendly and I did not give him any issues. I was over charged for my meal, he charged me for things I did not ask for and refused to service me the entire time. My friends had to ask him to service me until we all got fed up. I left. I gave him the tip he desrved for being a racist towards me. He received $0 on a $20 check that should have onnly been $11 for a kids meal. I will never return and I wish Lucas the best. read more

This is one of the better locations of Three Dollar Cafe. Last visit, I got the blackened TDC fish sandwich and it was great as usual.

I used to be a huge fan of this neighborhood establishment but my feelings are changing the more I go! To be clear, our server and the food was good, as always! But I have two complaints from tonight,, 1) I've been coming here for years and the glass my 'Texas Margarita" came in tonight was small, really small. I remember when this same drink was served in a slightly taller glass. Four sips and the whole drink is gone. Stop robbing customers of a decent sized drink..... BUT the thing that bothered me the most was, 2) bartender eating at the bar while making drinks! Didn't wash her hands not one time after putting food in her mouth! Disgusting! I don't care that you're not touching food, but your hands are touching the rim of glasses and i dont want your nasty fingers that came out your mouth, touching my glass rim. Like gross! If you're hungry, just go take a break and eat. Don't eat and make drinks at the same time. Too many health issues going around for these employees to be this careless! Remember someone is always watching... read more
