Come try a homemade biscuit in the morning or have a dog or burger at lunch, our address is 962 Industrial Boulevard, Ellijay, GA. We are located approximately 1/4 mile from Hardee's on Industrial Boulevard.

While we are no Glenn Burns, we feel it will be in the best interest of our awesome employees to CLOSE TOMORROW (Monday 1/27). Even though the roads may end up being perfectly passable, we are not willing to ā€œrisk it for the biscuitā€ on this one!!

Sometimes, these catering events are precisely what our souls need. There's nothing more special than helping celebrate a precious mama-to-be. We are always honored to be asked to help with these occasions and strive to deliver the best experience possible. This one may be my favorite we have done so far, due to my love for this family and because everything was perfect for a baby shower brunch! "Locally Grown Baby" was a success!! *Decorating by the fabulous Candace Poole *Custom grazing stand built in an afternoon by Ty Burnette *Photo credit to Josie Fowler , always 🄰

ā­ļø WE ARE HIRINGā­ļø
If you love working in a fast paced environment where the day flies by, staying busy because there’s always SOMETHING that can be done, being at home every night and never working a Sunday (except maybe during Apple Festival and only if you WANT to)….. come by and put in an application with us!!
ā¤ļøIf you’re friendly, punctual and have a great work ethic…… come by and see us!!
šŸ’£If you have worked, or desire to work in the food industry and are eager to learn from a business that has proven that hard work, perseverance, a consistent quality product and friendliness is always the winning equation…. COME SEE US!!!
šŸŽ‰If you need/want to work in the hospitality field, but also need to prioritize a work/life balance - COME SEE US!!!
āž”ļøWE ARE HIRING!! Ideal candidates will be available to work early mornings (as early as 5 am, occasionally) and will understand that rotating Saturdays is the fair way to handle a schedule. Hiring for window (that’s customer service in Chili Dog lingo), specifically.

A little bit of rehearsal dinner catering from last week. It’s the ā€œbutter boardsā€ for us…. Fresh strawberries over a lavender compound butter with a sweet strawberry balsamic glaze drizzle- yes please!! There was also the butter board topped with dried fig, fresh ground sea salt, and a generous drizzle of pure Tupelo Honey (iykyk). Photo credit to Josie Fowler. If you are curious about the honey, just ask Jennie- she LOVES talking about it.

Please note the change of date. Due to extenuating circumstances out of our control, we will be closed MONDAY (3/3/25) in honor of Whitney and out of respect for Linda, Tommy, Ty, Jennie and the rest of the Burnette/Anderson families. Please take this time to hold your loved ones tight, and let that hug linger just a little longer. Life is so very precious.

We are currently hiring!! If you are friendly, can multitask, are a team player, and can be counted on….. we have a spot for you!! We are specifically in need of WINDOW help (we do NOT have an open position for grill or biscuit maker, at this time), so customer service skills and manners are highly regarded!! A few notes: training pay starts at $13/hr plus tip share. Our hours are 5 am-2 pm, but I really need some early breakfast window helpers (5 am or 6 am). This is not a position that is conducive to taking your children to school and then coming to work. Some Saturdays are a must, but I try very hard to rotate Saturdays for everyone!! Please message us on messenger or come by the restaurant to schedule a sit down. If you come by the restaurant, we will schedule a time for an interview, which will hopefully prevent some of the mishaps we have had in the past. If you have put in an application or came by to speak with me and couldn’t reach me, I apologize. The restaurant has been quite short staffed, and catering has started earlier this year than typical, so there have been some things that have slipped past me. Thank you and we look forward to speaking with you !!
