Some of the best wings you'll ever eat. Staff is friendly usually. They did well with the large group we had of over 25 people. The hot sauce is delicious and besides the wings I haven't really tried much else here. The fries are good and I definitely want to try them with cheese. The ranch is also really great. This place has been around for awhile and for good reason. read more

Three Dollar Cafe is my go to when I can't decide on what to eat. The wings and buffalo shrimp are my favorites. All of the menu items I've tried have been fantastic. The only downside is the long wait, especially on the weekends. read more

Three Dollar Cafe is an Atlanta staple!! It offers a large variety of foods that I consider "bar foods", but I don't consider it a bar. Just comfort foods types of food! They do have tons of TV's to watch sports...so I guess I should consider it a sports bar! It gets packed during lunch, but they serve you pretty fast and the service is always great! It is obvious that they are accustomed to having a large lunch crowd. They have the pace and service down to perfection!! I usually get the Chicken Fingers, which is plenty to share or have leftovers! The French fries are thick cut and so yummy! I have also had the cheese burger and I get mine cooked well-done. It totally hits the spot when you need a little iron!! I highly recommend this place if you are looking for good, quick and easy food!! read more

Been going to 3 Dollar occasionally since the 80s and it used to be good. Picked up 20 wings (all drumsticks) last night and they were awful. Very small and overcooked to the point of being dried out. Have to rethink ever going back. read more

Three Dollar is my go to place. Cold beer and great bar food. Management is on it. Recently I decided to venture out from the wings and cheesesteak sandwich to the Cuban Sandwich. Now I'm Cuban so I tend to stay away because unless your in Miami or at the former Cuban Sandwich place in Atlanta Ks Corner on 12th - nothing quite came close. But the team here at three dollar has found a way to blend carnitas with the Cuban tradition Cuban Sandwich and has done it successfully. It taste great and the portion would satisfy any Miami Cuban. I would highly recommend it as an alternative to the regular bar food. read more

The best wings in town! We have been searching Atlanta for a good and consistent wing restaurant and we finally found it! Thanks Three Dollar Cafe'. Their famous wings did not disappoint! I ordered the single (10) of Mild and my hubby order the single (10) of teriyaki and both were FANTASTIC. The flavors were spot on. As an appetizer we ordered the 1/2 order of the Cafe' "Blue Chips", again delish! Ask for Drew - he is the Bomb .... i will be back soon!!!! read more

Tonight I tried to place a Togo order they hung up on me 4 times and once half way through my order. The server kept telling me to speak up so i did and he hung up on me for the 5th time. I live less than 5 minutes away so I drove up there. The server told me i was screaming so he hung up on me half way through my order even though he told me to speak up more than 3 times. The manager tried to talk to me. The server kept butting in saying I put you on hold even though he straight hug up on me because the line went dead. That's not hold. Meanwhile the server is still trying to pick a fight with me behind the manager by waving the phone in my face and doing childish stuff. The manager did nothing to fix this problem. Did nothing about the servers terrible attitude and trying to pick a fight with me. It's completely unacceptable since I go there at least once a week and have been for years. I will never go back. They did absolutely nothing to make the situation better. Horrible service. Horrible management. read more

Best fries in town, no exaggeration, trust me! Their chicken wings are unique, I've never tasted any like the ones at 3 Dollar! If I could eat here every day, I would. It's time they make a location for North Georgia...Cherokee county eagerly awaits :^) read more

A group of us came here for drinks after getting dinner elsewhere. I obviously can't give you any insight into the food except to say that they serve Cream of Jalepeno soup (what?), but I can say that the service was good and they kept the drinks coming. I also liked the atmosphere here. It was very relaxed and dive-y, the kind of place that you can sit around at for a while without feeling like you're being forced out. It's located right down the street from where my sister-in-law lives, so I suspect when we visit them in the future we might make another visit. They love it here! read more

Good food and good prices. Can't ask for to much more. Chicken wings are good. Salads are good. I also had the grouper sandwich and it was good. I haven't struck out yet. Not a bad spot that I will frequent often! read more

Wings were dry and flavor was alright. For how dry the wings were you'd hope they'd have some liberal sauce application to moisten it up, but no. Wings were expensive, more than anywhere else that's also seen drastic price increases. We've tried it a few times cause my gf used to go there as a kid and has good memories of the place. Today the atmosphere is really cool with decent service but with mediocre food. read more

I have been to several Three Dollar Cafe's but This one is my favorite! The service, food and quality is always the same- on point! I veered away from my usual staple; the chicken philly for the turkey burger and it was The Best Turkey burger!! Tender, juicy and cheesy. The blackened grouper is also perfect! Steak fries are always fresh and the arnold palmer is just sweet enough! read more

If you're someone who likes having great food, having great beer, and having a great time... then this spot is definitely for you. I've been in Sandy Springs for almost 5 years. This place is a great spot for a game, an afternoon snack, or a late night cheat snack. Their wings are amazing, their beer is affordable, and they're down to earth / not stuck up. If you're someone who likes to ask about what ingredients goes into your food... please stay away from this place. Leave this place to people like me, who care more about amazing flavor and less about what type of meat went into the meatball... Just by keeping out the health nuts, this place has provided amazing value. Three Dollar Cafe, I'd give them 10 stars if I could! read more

This is my go-to spot for Buffalo wings in Sandy Springs/Dunwoody. The sauce is really good and the wings are cooked perfectly and generally really plump. Parking isn't the easiest bit if you get there before the lunch rush it shouldn't be an issue. If you're looking for pretty decent wings, this is is your spot. read more

Three Dollar Cafe is an Atlanta-based chain restaurant serving up a delicious medley of bar food and drinks. They show a majority of big-ticket sporting events on numerous TVs and serve a long list of tasty drafts (including local brews). I must have driven past this particular Three Dollar Cafe at least 50 times before we ever decided to go in for dinner, but I can tell you I won't be making that mistake again! What delicious wings! And an awesome beer list! This is definitely going to be our new "go-to" sports bar on Roswell Rd. Service was casual but friendly. I noticed that the waitresses were addressing folks at several tables near us by name. I consider a healthy crowd of regulars to always be an indicator of good food - and it was! Menu-wise, there are a handful of "lighter" options on the menu but I wouldn't say there's "something for everyone" here. That said, we thought everything we ordered was absolutely delicious and were already talking about coming back before we had even paid the check! We tried the following: - Spinach and Jalapeno Dip ($7.25) - tasty but not very spicy. It tasted like good ole spinach dip to me! (TRUST ME, this is not a complaint. I'm a spinach dip connoisseur!) - Nacho Mountain ($10.75 or a half order for $6.50) - first of all DUH I had to order this! Nacho Mountain?! Challenge accepted! (We did the half order and didn't finish it so will be back for round two....). This was exactly what it sounds like: a big pile of crispy tortilla chips topped with nacho cheese sauce, chili and all the toppings, and served with sides of guac, salsa, and sour cream. YUM. - Chipotle BBQ wings - TDC claims their wings are famous in ATL. To be fair, I'd never heard of them before and I eat a lot of wings. Regardless I'm glad I found out about them because they are really good! Crispy but still saucy and really moist, these are the kind of wings you just can't stop eating. TDC seems to know they're a hot ticket item because you can order them in increments of up to 50 at a time. Wowza. - TDC Chicken Wrap ($8.75) - hot sauce-coated fried chicken with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and ranch dressing in a wrap. Killer. Would totally order this again! (Pro tip - swap the pasta salad for their fries. SO GOOD, especially when you dip them in the leftover wing sauce.) read more

Cool casual spot with good food. The wings were DELICIOUS! Idk if it's weird to say, but the blue cheese was great too. I mixed hot and bbq, I love spicy food a lot, and the "hot" had a little kick, even for me. The steak fries were surprisingly great, I usually don't like steak fries because they tend to be a bit mushy. But the fries have just the right amount of crisp. The decor is like an outdated sports bar, but the bathroom was updated and very clean. Wait staff was nice and prompt. read more

Love this place! Been going to this restaurant since I was a kid and it's the same as it always had been. Fresh and delicious as always. Best wings OTP. Highly recommend this is anyone and everyone. Family friendly and great food! Sit out on the deck if the weather permits you to do so. read more

I normally come here to get a late night dinner because I work late shifts in a lab.... my normal server is the 6 foot male and he is always on point ...... but tonight I had the slim blond haired young lady and the service was so so..... never got a menu and it took a nice while for her to get my order.... which is cool! Then I look up I see the male manager heavyset guy working with no mask..... ok I got a little bit more worried...... then I saw a slim dark haired server smoking a vape pin which I know it was weed from the way it was made smoking it in the store by the bar and the employee lockers! Just wow read more

The wings!!!!!!!! So. Good. I love how simple and quaint this establishment is. Super easy seating and good atmosphere for a glass of beer and some chicken wings. My husband and I don't live too far from this location and we're mad that it took us so long to try it! We definitely plan to be back sometime soon. I'd recommend their hot wings, lemon pepper wings, and the buffalo shrimp. You, for sure, won't be sorry! read more

I'm new to the area so any restaurant that's called Three Dollar Cafe has to be visited on my budget. That was not the case since the only $3 item was the beverages but that's my fault (I mean really). The decor is kind of old and is very small inside. I usually order takeout so it doesn't really bother me since the food is prepared quickly. The waiters have their days. One day they are nice, quick, and helpful. On others, they act like they don't see you waiting. You never know what to expect. Now on to the food. I've only had the chicken tenders and the Chicken Alfredo. The chicken tenders and fries are always tasty. The fries could use a bit more seasoning other than a dash of salt but I've realized they lack in flavor across all the food. The pasta is basically noodles topped with bland chicken, pretty good seasoned broccoli (maybe 3-4 pieces tho), a tablespoon of alfredo sauce and ALL the oil in the kitchen. It's so greasy that there's enough oil left in my bowl to moisturize a person. Overall, I would go back for a quick snack of something simple like the chicken tenders but for a more delicate meal and consistent service, I'd rather choose one of the many other restaurants Atlanta has to offer. read more

Not bad, but just OK. Grouper Fingers are ok, but a bit greasy. The harbanaro sauce is more sweet than hot. Salad and Cole slaw are both average. read more

Great good and service! Friend mushrooms were absolutely stunning and tasted just as great! Horsey sauce cleaned your sinuses, which is how it should be! Burgers were cooked to order perfectly and equally delicious. Definitely a new favorite place to eat with the family! read more

Paula was super sweet!!!! We love her and the wings! Great customer service this was my second time here and it def will not be my last. Would pick their wings over taco mac ANY day! read more

The wings....worth every penny and the fries are sooo good. I have been looking for a wing spot since moving from the Southside of town. So glad a friend recommended this place. The wings are huge and they sauces are on point. read more

The fried mushroom app is THE BOMB!!!! I wish they would cut those suckers in half and put them on a burger! That would be so good!! (Seriously, management, if you read this, do that!) The fries were good, the turkey burger was great, the service was fast. It wasn't too loud in there for a bar type setting. I would definitely come back and maybe put those mushrooms on my burger myself. They were great. The wings looked good, the chicken wrap looked good. It's a divey place, but that's ok. It's the type of place that would turn you into a regular. Just wish their draft beer selection was bigger. Then it would get 5 stars for sure. read more

The best wings in the south. Taco Mac has nothing on this place. Exceptional service with hot fresh food every single visit. Keep it up! I my family keep coming back and back! read more

My go-tos are the pecan blue salad & their wings with their famous blue cheese, CANNOT go wrong. Pretty much have had everything & will say I haven't been disappointed in anything.They are always busy, which only adds to the fact that their food is great. read more

Best wings in Atlanta IMO we go nowhere else. This is no exaggeration, crispy and delicious every time we go!

I absolutely love the fried shrimp. They are seasoned to perfection and HUGE!!!!!!!!! And the Cheese steak is the bomb as well. I love eating here. read more

I went in expecting a different kind of vibe, and was surprised that it is more of a sports bar. Either way, I enjoyed some of the best wings that I've ever had with ranch and bleu cheese dressings. Bleu cheese dressing is made in house. Even if you aren't a fan, you should try theirs. read more

I've been going to the Three Dollar Cafe since I was a kid and it's still as good today as it was back then. They're known for their chicken wings....but they have a lot of other great food as well. I really enjoy the Chicken and Cheese sandwich. Great food and friendly people....can't go wrong. When I come back into town, Three Dollar is always on my list of places to go. I still prefer the original location to the satellite locations. read more

Okay. Before you go to saying WTH is William B giving this cruddy old dive 4 stars for, I am going to say... It's great bar food. The location in Sandy Springs REALLY knows how to FRY! Their Fried Mushrooms are SUPERB. Try em with a side of hot wing sauce and bleu cheese dressing. I promise you, they are very good. Deadly, but good. The French Fries are also good. Hot, crisp wide steak fries done right and salted to my liking. The Onion Rings are killer too. And they make good sandwiches - the reuben, the blackened grouper, and of course the TDC burger... for my money one of the better burgers in town, and I have been to the counter, to the vortex, to west egg... it's right up there... I guess, long story short is that I want to give them props for being solid bar food. Good service, too. read more

Had dinner here tonight based on the raving reviews from Yelp....Torn between the wings and the Philly (not feeling a burger tonight-surprise!), I chose the Philly. The spouse chose the wings (1/2 lemon pepper, 1/2 mild-fried hard). Typical bar fare. I have to say that the steak fries were the highlight of my meal. I really, sincerely wanted to love the Philly steak, but it seemed as the chef was a little heavy-handed with the salt. After an extra long day in the office, I was in no mood to send the sandwich back and wait for another entree to come out. Tried one of baby's wings, and the blasted thing was basically barren of mild sauce. To Three Dollar Cafe's credit- the Coca-Cola was perfectly calibrated. Another issue I had was with the raggedy parking lot. We had to park in an adjunct lot on the rear/side of the restaurant. Several seedy looking individuals were milling about, eating Little Caesar's Pizza. Wouldn't have felt so safe had we left after sundown. All in all, I felt that the $24 tab may have been a stretch for the quality of the entrees. Hell, my sandwich should really have only cost $3 as vile as it tasted. read more

Three Dollar is an okay place to go for some decent bar food. The wings are pretty good and they have some pretty good salads. This one is popular with those who live in the area. I have no complaints about the service I have received here each time I have gone. This is a very casual eating spot where I know I can enjoy some decent food. read more

I've been to this restaurant 3 times in the last two weeks. Most people come here for the wings and although they're great, the fish tacos are my go to. The fish is flaky and the cilantro lime dressing goes perfectly with it. Only thing I would is substitute the lettuce for cilantro. read more

I went here tonight because I just finished a long work day/ night and was starving. Ordered some wings and some blue cuz chips. The chips came out well over done on the edge of burnt. Didn't like what I could see but was hungry enough to try them. They tasted BURNT! When I asked mgt WHY they would even serve these terribly unsavory looking chips to anyone, they just didn't care and offered to redo them. I then paid for my beer and left!! Not taking a chance on what else I might get from them that was bad. Very very bad response from mgmt. Not professional at all!! Will never beer that desperate to try this place again. BAD FOOD,BAD MANAGEMENT!! read more

The fajita style burger was absolutely delicious! I had subbed onion rings instead of fries, and although they were pretty good, the fries were way better. This is a very locals place, and fits its name except for the fact nothing on the menu is $3...? If you are looking for a burger joint or some other type of greasy food, this place would be a good choice. We will be back to try some other dishes, and probably get the fajita burger again. read more

It's refreshing to see a "hole in the wall" restaurant in this city. So many things are overly commercialized it all feels fake. Now 2 things to note about "three dollar cafe." 1. It's not $3. 2. It's a bit of a chain. Keeping the 2nd thing in mind I'm a bit disappointed I guess, but only because it loses some of the "family business" image for me. That doesn't stir me though. The menu has something for everyone, and though the prices aren't $3, they are reasonable. You're not paying $55 a head or anything. I had the chicken strips and fries. Something very straight forward. It came out, the chicken strips were the juciest I've ever had, tender, moist, but not "fat" or unpleasent. I very much enjoyed them. My glass of sweet tea was HUGE, but still needed 1 refill. Service was excellent. This particular location has a home grown feel, which I admire very much. It has a gravel parking lot and a "porch" area that's been enclosed. It's worth stopping in! It's good for business lunches too. read more

Nothing on the menu is $3. I was warned before I went so it was no surprise. I had ordinary steak fries, nothing to write home about. My friend had the USA salad with added chicken and shrimp. It was a huge portion and she said it was great. Service is eh. Waitress seemed rushed although the place is empty. Another woman was sweeping close to my table and when I sweetly asked her not to she gave me a confused (or dirty) look and went to talk to other staff member. The she proceeded to sweep next to some other customers. Geez. Really? I'm still at the restaurant but I don't see any reason why I'd ever come back. read more
