Spirits has excellent food and cocktails. Fabulous appetizers, burgers, plates, really everything. I personally love the kalettes appetizer. Their tater tots are perfectly cooked, hot and crispy; fantastic when dipped in their horseradish mayo. Monday night is trivia night!

Groceries and Treats

Locally owned as well as chain stores for stocking the fridge and pantry.
Tomato House is a little grocery store specializing in produce, deli, a huge assortment of jarred and pickled items, locally made goods and wine, and craft beer (I personally love the pickled mushrooms). There is also an attached gift shop that sells scooped ice cream.

Sightseeing and Local History

While the Gold Mines of the area might seem at first like a tourist trap this one is definitely worth a visit. The story of the Dahlonega gold rush is vital to the history of the area and a tragic reminder of what instigated the Trail of Tears. The tour of the mine is a must.
