Daphne Lodge Restaurant

Daphne Lodge Restaurant Daphne Lodge Restaurant was founded in 1952 in Cordele, GA. We serve seafood, steak, and southern food.

Located across Georgia Veterans State Park and Lake Blackshear, 2 hours south of Atlanta 10 miles west of exit 101 off I-75 Daphne Lodge enjoys the fruit of many years of successful service. Having appeared in Southern Living as one of the top ten restaurants serving catfish and featured on the cover of their Sea and Stream cookbook, feature articles on Daphne Lodge continue to appear in major tra

vel books, magazines, and newspapers. Under the sponsorship of the Georgia Hospitality and Tourism Association, Daphne Lodge was awarded a Governor’s Award for Excellence for being one of Georgia’s outstanding restaurants. Atlanta Magazine recognized Daphne Lodge as one of the “South’s favorite restaurants,” U.S.A. Today honored us as a “crowned winner,” and Georgia Trend headlined Daphne Lodge as a “State Treasure.”

On behalf of our staff we hope to see you soon and you enjoy your evening with us!

📖 WEEK 4 OF “THE COOKBOOK IS OPEN!” ✨

This week’s dessert comes straight from the cookbook, and this one is a little extra special. 🍋

Per a customer request, we’re bringing back our Lemon Bisque Dessert — a recipe that brought back a memory for one of our customers. There’s just something special about food that takes you back to a certain time, place, or person. 🤍

And inspired by everyone’s love for our Twice Baked Potato, we decided to give it a Daphne’s twist! 🥔🦀🍤

Our Stuffed Seafood Potato is loaded with lump crab meat and shrimp, then topped with a delicious Parmesan topping and baked to perfection.

Two special favorites. One week only.

Come make some memories around the table with us! 🤍
