Food scene

You know you want a Wahlburgers burger before you see a show at the Coca Cola Roxy! I like the BBQ Bacon (Donnie's choice).

Want some good take away or delivery pizza but don't want to eat at one of the national chains? DaVinci's the place. They are a little pricey but worth it in our opinion because we always have leftovers and because the pizza is just that dang good! They don't have a seating area. Take away or Delivery only.

This is where we first met! It's a 10 minute drive but the food is far better than Varner's Tavern by the house. Don't forget to let her have the first bite if she asks!

It's a 20 minute drive but a local favorite for breakfast. They've been around since 1995 so they must be doing something right...

Sightseeing

Just two miles away and one of the 13 still functioning covered bridges in Georgia. The old mill is still standing but it’s on private property so you have to look at it from a distance.

Lockheed Martin and Dobbins Air Reserve Base

Lockheed Martin, formerly the Bell aircraft corporation , broke ground in Smyrna soon after Pearl Harbor when they were selected to produce the most technologically advanced bomber at the time, the B-29 Superfortress. The B-29 dropped the atomic bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only aircraft to drop nuclear weapons in combat.
