About Ellijay Restaurant Week

Ellijay Restaurant Week is an annual celebration of Gilmer County’s vibrant food scene.
It’s a time to spotlight the chefs, teams, and establishments that make Ellijay such a special place to eat, gather, and connect. Whether it’s a local pub, a locally owned vineyard, or a fine dining spot, each venue brings its own flavor and heart to our town. Restaurant Week is our chance to say thank you, show support, and recognize the hard work behind every great meal.

A special shoutout to this year’s finalists in the Best Breakfast category: Corner Stone Cafe and Mr. P’s Takeout Food. Thank you!
