Good pub food and a great neighborhood bar atmosphere
It's a mellow neighborhood bar. Perfect for relaxing after a long day and right down the street. An easy walk at just under a mile.

It's my favorite tiny little shoebox venue. You could go on a wednesday and see a good indie show. It has a CBGB vibe. It was the original 40 watt club. If you like metal or indie music go check out the Caledonia.

It's the closest thing to a 'night club' if you're looking for that kind of atmosphere, all good is the best spot in town. It's a little younger and on the younger side of town but if you're over 30 you won't feel odd being in there.

It's iconic. Purely Athens. It's a good club and the acts range pretty widely but you can always catch a good show there.

Best beer in the State. The building is a historic rebuild as well so it's a cool space. I recommend actually doing the tour -- especially if Blake is giving it. It'll touch your heart.

Food Scene

The food is to die for. This place absolutely kills it. I recommend going for lunch because it's such a bargain but dinner is fabulous as well. You can't go wrong at Last Resort. It's iconic - an Athens staple.

Sightseeing

It's right downtown and north campus is beautiful. The campus at UGA is definitely worth taking a walk through. Some of the trees alone are worth the trek.
