Athens Farmers Market

Reviewed By GDabelko - Athens, United States

I started going to the Athens Farmers Market decades ago when it brought people together on the old airport runway, now long-gone under tennis courts and a skateboard park. Now the largest year-round farmer's market in the state is about to move again. But what will always be a constant is the opportunity to access healthy local foods and the rich local community of vendors and customers. It is a meeting place, a crossroads for the diverse city and county, university and farmer, student and older adult communities to come together. So bring a bag for carrying home vegetables, local honey, fantastic bread and funky Avalanche pizza creations, herbs, soap, and naturally some local tortilla chips and popcorn.

Little Fish Brewing

Reviewed By BaldAndHappy - Washington DC, United States

They have great beers, which you would expect from a small local craft brewery. I tried two of them and both of them were top notch. I sat outside, although it was 39° outside, and they were more than happy to start a fire in the fire pit to warm things up. It quickly filled up with lots of beer drinkers and everyone said their beer was great. I didn’t eat there.

Devil's Kettle Brewing

Reviewed By Athensgirl348

We went to Devil's Kettle on the last day of Brew Week. I was pleasantly surprised because their beer was very good and they had a nice variety of beer. When this place was first open, I didn't like their beer, but there is now a nice variety of beer for both men and women.
