Three Dollar Cafe

Visited this restaurant on January 11, 2016. I asked the waitress did she know if the pretzel crusted brownie was good. She stated that she didn’t know and that they do not sell that many desserts mainly due to the large portions, I thought I’d give it a try and decided to order. The brownie was horrible, needless to say the reason people probably don’t order desserts is due to the quality rather than taste.

I am not quite sure why, but I have a soft spot for $ 3. It is probably because one of my very early I Have A Grown Up Job memories involves wings and drinks at the classic Buckhead location.
This one is around the corner from me and I love it for two reasons: LPWs (and really good blue cheese– 99% sure it is Ken’s, which I love) and gigantic, gluttonous fried mozz. So. Good. The wings are just seasoned enough and not greasy, and the mozzarella sticks are just — fried, cheesy, deliciousness. Don’t care if they’re SYSCO. They work.
Calm place, doesn’t get too busy, nice service.

Me and My Co Worker Nicole went here for my birthday I had the burger and fries she had lemon pepper wings to which she shared like 3 with me they were good and the ladies were nice on my eyes as well Cheers.

Lots of beer options. The only issue we had was there was something in our water so we had to get new glasses.
We experienced great customer service by Britta, our bartender. She was extremely friendly, nice, and attentive.

Fish Tacos here are the best! Good place to meet friends for a quick lunch or watch the game. Prime location on Northside Drive, and the free parking is a plus. Large portion and good value.

Great late night spot to watch the game and grab a bite to eat. The shrimp and wings are everything

Charlie the manager was excellent help and really helpful, polite, and quick about servicing us, we came on a lunch break from school our lunch break is only a hour so we called in our lunch so it can be ready for us to sit down and eat … so needless to say when we got there there was a really rude hostess by the name of latisha … that told us we couldn’t sit down and eat our lunch because we called it in we still had every intention of tipping the waitress, even though we called in our food !!!
She seem like she was having a really shitty day and didn’t want to go get her manager when I requested him and she was really rude to my classmates as well even ignored a couple of classmates and she even seemed confrontational … so finally Charlie the nice manager came out and seated us and make sure we were good and there was the other polite hostess Kenyola helped make sure we were good as well !! The other rudeness!!! was a waitress by the name of Jaleah and she hushed my classmate and said hol’ up and pointed her finger while my classmate was asking for her check… when she was talking and she had a very ghetto attitude and was rude as well!!! food was great but during lunch time if your in to bad attitudes and ghetto behavior this is your place !!!

Nice casual atmosphere. The volume on the TV is up really high, so its quite noisy in the place. I had the steak and cheese sandwich which was good, though not particularly memorable. The fries on the other hand were quite gross – unseasoned steak fries that were neither browned nor crispy.
The drinks are very reasonably priced and tasty though, which makes it a good spot to come back to.

The Skinny:
The fish tacos are delicious! I had them fried but you can get them in other cooking methods as well.
The chips and queso are actually really delicious.
This place has a few $ 3 drinks specials and the drinks actually get you right. This includes Long Islands, blue motorcycles and some other drinks as well.
Great place to go watch the game if you’re into that because they have several TVs all over the place.
The Scoop: my work wife has invited us over here a couple of times. This is her undiscovered gem. I’ve been here a couple of times and I’ve enjoyed myself. The servers are pretty cool and the atmosphere is. it definitely helps that they have these $ 3 drink specials as well.
The Deets: I have been here twice and have not been disappointed yet. I definitely recommend this place to those who are looking for a place to watch the games. 2 fish tacos, and sets of three and they’re very filling and delicious. I tasted someone else’s chips and queso and pretty much finished off the plate. #dontjudgeme. I will be back

This is my go-​to I wanna watch a great game n drink cheap drinks spot. With TVs visible from every angle, you will get a glance of whatever game is ON! There are always drink specials and the service is fun and friendly and prompt. The food is pretty basic bar food but decent enough to eat while watching a game and drinking a beer. The wings are the rave here but again, basic bar food for me! I like that is cheap n just chill! It’s just an all around win for me with decent n cheap food n drinks, god service and near my house.

My first time visiting this location… the food was really good. I ordered the wings and shrimp combo… best wings I’ve had in quite a while. The mixed cocktails are a little weak… you will have to order a double shot. If you like beer I’m sure you’ll find something from the massive tap selections they have to offer.

Glad they are back open in the city! I just happened to drive by here last Saturday and realized they were open so I decided to take myself out for wings and drinks. I’m glad that I did. The wings were as good as I remember from years ago. I started with an appetizer of fried pickles, which were good, cause I actually like fried pickles. I then ordered the Lemon pepper and Garlic parmesan wings combo. The wings were great! The drinks were good also. Not to say that I am an alcoholic but I enjoy good libations. The Purple Haze was okay, not sure if I will get it again though. The server (Victor) was really cool. I had fun with him. Make sure to ask for him when you go, he’s there Friday thru Sunday nights. I will definitely be asking for him again. The best part about this place, besides the food, is the fact that I am about 2 miles away from it. I really enjoy that. Make sure to ask for Victor for good service, and say hello to me if you see me there ’cause I think this may become a regular weekend spot for me. Enjoy!

Sat down at the bar with Samantha as my capable and zealous bartender. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite haunts. Her knowledge of the drinks is amazing to watch. When she shakes me mixed drinks, I can feel the perfection coming to my mouth. I’ll be back.

Parking Beware! After watching the GSU vs Xavier basketball game and having dinner, we came out to find our car booted. Yes, after 2 hrs with no signs of any sort of policy in the parking garage. Three parking attendants visited us as we waited for someone capable to remove the boot. As one attendant checked out photos of girls on his cell phone, I was instructed to go get a receipt from the Café to prove that we were there for dinner. My social media check in was not enough… Even with proven timestamp.
So I walked downstairs from the second level (we parked by the elevator because one of our group is disabled) and told the bartenders of our situation. They informed me the owner’s son was booted previously. But the parking attendants said they were there because of the owner didn’t want residents parking below the 5^th level??? Someone get the story straight… please! The manager at the Café asks how long we were dining there…2hrs, like it should matter, and hands me a receipt from someone else’s tab. I walk out and hand it to the attendant who removes the boot after looking at girly pics. Because someone’s else’s receipt is more accurate than a social media check in… Ok.
Moral of the story, buyer beware! Guilty unless proven innocent. With the current logic that is not communicated by signs or people, your car will be booted before you can prove you dined at the Café! All cars around us were booted as well. We were informed as we waited that cars will also be towed at a certain point… Therefore customers can pay an additional fine.
Nice evening until we wanted to leave. Not planning on revisiting until they resolve their parking growing pains. To be fair, the Café’s service was good and we enjoyed their wings. And a nice selection of local taps was a pleasant surprise.

Great atmosphere! Had the steak and cheese and it was delicious. I highly recommend it. Britta was my bartender and she was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I will be back with friends.
