Reviews for The Open Door at Alley's Ol' Store in Lakemont, GA
Such a beautiful place. My wife and I have visited and revisited over the past many years, and neither the staff nor the food... has disappointed. The staff is always so welcoming, food is beyond tasty... Lakemont is a slice of heaven, why not havefriendly faces and a great lunch while you're there? Read more
I had both the Meatloaf sandwich and Cinnamon Brown Sugar shake and they were excellent. Fresh ingredients and friendly service.... We will be back. Read more
This stop was the hidden gem of our mountains of GA and NC vacation. We were staving and the pickings were lean in the area so... we stopped at this very cute little place to try and find some food. We found a wonderful lunch counter style eatingestablishment with a cute little shop. The folks running it were very sweat, wonderful, southern ladies who know how to makegreat food and provided excellent customer service. We were very impressed and wished we could spend even longer there (even thebathroom was adorable and very clean?a rarity when you travel). As a bonus, the store also owns a little park across the riverwhere you can sit by a nice little river and eat in the shade. Very picturesque and chill when you have been driving all overcreation and hiking all day. Highly recommend stopping in if you are anywhere nearby. Read more
If you?re ever in the area stop by for lunch. The Harvest Sandwich is excellent. Followed by coffee and a slice of cake makes... for a great afternoon. Read more
This is a great off the beaten path general store restaurant. Sandwiches were good and there is an outdoor seating area.
Spending the week at a nearby cabin for Thanksgiving week and my daughter baking us an apple pie before realizing we had no... sugar. Heading towards a grocery store (20 min drive and saw this on the way). The store wasn?t opened yet but the owner came tothe door and welcomed me in. She didn?t have sugar for sale but wouldn?t let me go without filling a Tupperware for me andrefused to take my $. Next year we?ll just come here first and buy our pies and pastries and jams. Great little place!! Read more
Quaint and comfy restaurant. We sat on the front porch and enjoyed lunch after hiking Tallulah Gorge. The lady who took our... order was very helpful with guiding us through the menu. The sandwiches we had were both really good (tuna melt and PB&J for my9 yr old). The river across the street makes for peaceful scenery. Don't skip giving this place some of your time and money fora memorable lunch. Oh yeah, and ask for an extra pickle spear....they're delicious! Read more
We visited Thursday after a short hike at Tallulah Gorge before the Nicole rain. Ordered Pimento sandwich, lentil soup, and... tomato basil soup. Their pimento was excellent. Also, the lentil soup was very tasty. Yum! Haven't had the tomato soup yet. Lakemont is a nice area, have stayed there before. Read more
