From bacon, cheddar biscuits to gluten free muffins and brownies- the whole family can find something they want in this quaint shop. Call ahead if you are gluten free-- sometimes they have other gluten free goodies and bread that is to die for!
FYI- there is no seating here. We either grab them to go or get them and walk over and sit at Jit Joes with a cup of coffee. Yum!

Saturday Farmers Market at Bishop Park in Athens is our fav!
There are farmers markets in downtown Watkinsville and Athens on Saturday mornings from 8 am-12 pm. The one in Athens at Bishop Park is our favorite because it is all organic, but both are great ways to spend a Saturday morning!
