The Place is a relaxed Southern eatery, serving refined comfort cuisine to the Classic City. Our menu is inherited from a collection of family recipes that were passed down over the years and reworked with a modern twist. Named after my grandfather’s car dealership where we spent much of our time growing up - lovingly dubbed “The Place” - I hope that this restaurant similarly serves as a central gathering place for students, their families, university faculty and locals alike. As a graduate of The University of Georgia, I’m thrilled to have The Place rooted in the heart of the Athens community, contributing to our city’s great culinary landscape.
