My husband and I split the ribeye steak dinner, it comes with two sides. You'll see from the pictures that the servings sizes are massive here. The steak was seasoned well and didn't need any steak sauce. My daughter gives the adult grilled cheese and tomato bisque a 10/10. The hubster ordered the pistachio on the rocks drink and it was really delicious. The old fashioned was exactly what I wanted and expected - airing perfectly with the ribeye steak.

You can enter off the Town Square and immediately know you've found something special. This was our first time, but we've already been back, and both times the meals were delicious. They have probably the best chicken-salad sandwich that I have ever tasted, on a buttery, golden brown, toasted, sandwich bread that gives it just the right texture, and crunch. Add a cold, sweet, tea or a drink from the bar, to your lunch and you have a wonderful meal. The wait staff was attentive and very accommodating to our every need. The prices are very reasonable and the food exceptional.

My choice was the shrimp basket with sweet potato fries that came out fresh and piping hot! The shrimp were so big I couldn't eat them all.

If anything, it looks a little sketchy from the outside given the bars on the window, but it's not a sketchy place at all. Believe me when I say this. I stopped in on a Monday night for a nightcap. It was nice and quiet, which is exactly what I was looking for that particular evening, the following day being a travel day for me. As you can see from my pics, it's a nice little place. Drink prices were very reasonable, and the bartending was very good, too. I will happily stop in again when I return to Athens next year. Cheers!

This was my first time at Blue Sky. It's honestly a nice little hidden gem of a bar in Athens. It's…read morea little hard to find, as it's upstairs, but worth the visit. They have a pretty famous drink called the Blueberry Buck, which I had, and it was pretty tasty! I came here with a bunch of friends, and we all had a really great time.

Ambiance is super cute (it's a re-purposed, historic gas station located on the town's square) with both indoor and outdoor seating. I got the Grilled Marinated Vegetable Wrap. It's pre-made and refrigerated; I really appreciated the cashier offering to heat it up on the grill. The wrap was filled to the brim with caramelized onions, squash, and broccolini plus tangy goat cheese- messy but delicious. The menu said it's served with chipotle aioli, but I didn't get that on the side (possible it was already in the wrap, but I wasn't really able to distinguish it). There are a few dedicated parking spots for the Sinclair. I believe all the parking in Downtown is free too, but it was pretty busy on a Saturday afternoon. 10/10 would recommend!
