Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Googled for somewhere to eat on the way to Deep Creek and this popped up. So glad it did! Food did not disappoint! Chicken salad and pasta salad are my faves! BLT is also a big yum! So good in fact we stopped here again on the way home. Can't wait to come again!

Charming downtown location, Very good chicken salad and homemade desserts. Friendly staff. Shares space with a nice gift shop. McIntosh is in every way a great place for travelers to take a break and to support a local economy!

Fantastic light options, great sandwiches and the coffee is excellent too! Our group of nine had a wonderful time at lunch, then continued to shop together. The food is consistently amazing, the gifts, soaps, candles and clothing are outstanding quality at reasonable prices. So glad McIntosh is right here at home.

Large group with top notch service. Every lunch looked scrumptious! Reserved a table for us, with a table cloth and a view of main street. The chicken salad is always a hit. Today I had the Chef Salad, it was perfect! Assorted lettuces and baby spinach with tomatoes- it was bite size perfection. They make their own Ranch dressing which is the best! The tea is always great. Our servers are local favorites which made the date even more fun. We will be back and hope to see you there.

Fantastic breakfast! Excellent service! As an added bonus, they share an interior pass through to a wonderful shop that carries an assortment of clever home decor and apparel items. Best breakfast in Elberton!

I LOVE going to McIntosh Coffee for breakfast! I also enjoy lunch, but their breakfast is my jam! You place your order at the register, then pour up your own drinks and choose your own table. The ladies that work there will bring your food out to you. I highly recommend getting a cup of their house coffee! It is the best in town! If you go at lunch time, try the pasta salad or the grape salad. Very yummy with generous portions. Tip: Don't go here if you are in a hurry to be somewhere else. It is a popular grub spot and usually busy. There is usually at least a 15-20 min wait in the mornings and 20-30 min wait at lunch. (They are not normally open for dinner or on Sundays.) There is also a shop attached to the restaurant - Kreations by Kathy. Lots of cute boutique finds from southern companies: clothes, jewelry, home decor, gifts, snacks. Both McIntosh & Kathy's are highly recommended if you're spending a leisurely morning on the Elberton square! There is street parking (2 hr limit) in front of the restaurant and a parking lot for the rear entrance.

Looking for a non-chain breakfast that offers made to order eggs, grits, sausage, bacon, biscuits, etc. You found the right place. Prices are good. Order at the counter and the food is delivered to you table. They offer a traditional southern menu.
Plenty of room for a large group.

Stopped in for a lunch for first visit to Elberton since purchasing property here. Staff was very unfriendly. Was ignored by 3 staff while standing at the counter needing a to go box for my food and 2 of them even glanced my way. The one on the phone helped me after she finished taking an order. I will say the food was good but with that service it left a bad impression about what kind of people are here in my new town. Sad😒

We arrived about 9:15 and ordered breakfast at the counter. Didn’t get our food until 10:00! How hard is it or how long does it take to cook eggs? They must have either cooked everybody’s food one by one or waited for the chicken to lay the eggs. There were three people in the kitchen and it still took that long. My eggs were over cooked and my “wheat” toast had caraway seeds in it. Bacon was minuscule and brittle. No other options except grits to go with your breakfast. How about some breakfast potatoes or hash browns? Sad☹️

Stopped in for lunch. Took quite a little while to place our order. Line was 4-5 in front of us, but seemed to take much longer than it should. I have eaten here twice and both times they have run out of sweet tea at lunch time. Seemed to be a little annoyed when I told them. Food is not bad at all, but overall staff could use a lesson in smiling and overall customer service. Not sure I will come back. Would like to think someone appreciates my business and can at least say thank you.

This is the "little place on the corner" where you find most of the locals taken to lunch... Daily menu with a couple of dependable 'specials' each day. If you arrive much past Noon, there is a good chance the "Quiche" will be hard to find. Yes, it is tasty!
In addition to the sandwiches, there are salads, soups, wraps, coffee, tea and soft drinks...etc.
Special requests are a little hard to fill. However, when I asked for a "Grilled Pimento Cheese Sandwich (whole wheat) with a slice of tomato", the result was quite acceptable.
There is a 'craft' store adjacent through through a wall taken down to nearly double the square footage. Local crafts, clothing and 'whatnots' make the place downright homey.
It is obvious that in the early 20th Century the facility was a clothing/dry goods store of good design and use. This is not covered up as you see the balcony area above the kitchen area where surely the accounts, managers and package wrappers held forth in their day.
You will not find steaks or seafood delicacies on the menu...but you will find dependable, good food on a regular basis.
