Gate City Brewing Company
43 Magnolia StCheck ahead when visiting. Often reserved for events.
We love this spot because it has a deck with a view toward the Roswell Mills and Vickery Creek at Chattahoochee National Recreation Area. They serve locally brewed Gates City beer. See entry on Gates City Brewery. Excellent veggie burgers and turkey burgers for those that don't eat beef.

Parks & Nature
From Willeo Road to Azaela Drive try walking on the new boardwalk that follows marshes and river. This merges into paved walking path that continues up Azaela Drive. The best time is in the early evening with sunset and when water is released from Buford Dam flooding surrounding marshes when the frogs put on a deafening concert. Call 1-855-DAM-FLOW to find out Buford Dam water release. It is best to park in one of the lots off Azaela Drive then walk toward Chattahooche Nature Center.
