Athens Restaurants for Group Dining
Nothing is more fun than dining with a group of friends or colleagues. Athens has plenty of restaurants that welcome groups for special occasions.
Looking for a restaurant to host a wedding rehearsal dinner, a dinner for your board members during a conference or convention, or a celebratory meal for a new UGA graduate? Look no further for some ideas.
Of special note for meeting planners: Dozens of acclaimed restaurants are just steps away from downtown hotels and The Classic Center, the Athens convention center. The stars are aligned for distinctive culinary experiences during your meeting or convention. Plan a dine-around, an On-Your-Own evening that attendees will relish, or an impressive private dinner for Board Members or VIPs.
Whether you're an Athens resident or a visitor from Atlanta or elsewhere, we hope you will safely enjoy dining in Athens. To see how our restaurants are prioritizing your health and safety, check out our community program Ready Set Go Safely.
