Best Soul Food

From the restaurant:
"Since 1947 the Busy Bee Cafe has been one of Atlanta's best soul food restaurants. Located in the historical downtown area, Busy Bee offers catering as well as lunch and dinner, with a choice of dining in or take-out. ... If your lunch break chestnuts are a spicy tuna roll from Publix or a No. 4 from Chick-fil-A, you'll probably swoon at the prospect of chitlins, giblets, ham hocks and neck bones. Not to worry. Busy Bee also stars with the classics, including 'beelicious' fried chicken (try it smothered in gravy), pork chops and meatloaf, among others. Two fresh veggies ... come with each dinner. Desserts, especially red velvet cake and banana pudding, are in a league of their own. A great lunch break if you're downtown, worth a pilgrimage if soul food's your thing."


No alcohol available. Serving lunch and early dinner noon-7 pm Sun, 11 am–7 pm Mon–Fri. Closed Sat.

 

"The West End's Busy Bee, in business since 1947, continues a long tradition of good old-style Southern food made from scratch."
