PizzaWhen you think of a small town in northern Georgia, you probably assume that you can’t find delicious pie here. That is simply not the case. Here you’ll find some great local spots as well as popular chains. Here are five of the best pizza spots in Dahlonega to appease your cravings.

 

1: Gustavo’s

If you’re looking for a cozy spot in the heart of downtown, you need to stop at Gustavo’s. Here you’ll find a dimly lit restaurant, where the patrons and employees alike feel like family. You can order whole pies, slices during lunchtime, and there’s a full-service bar if you enjoy a cold beer with your pie. Alcohol is intended only for those of legal drinking age. Please drink responsibly. One of their famous pies consists of pepperoni, pineapple, and jalapeno.

2: Capers On the Square

Capers is a Greek restaurant. Before you disregard the restaurant for being predominately Greek cuisine, you can find great flatbread pies here. They offer five delicious pie flavors that you have to try. You’ll find more traditional flavors such as spicy Italian sausage and spinach alfredo, but some unique combinations too. If you’re looking for a vegetarian pie, give their eggplant and roasted veggie a shot. But the real winner is their fig and goat cheese pie.

3: Johnny B’s

On the outskirts of downtown, Johnny B’s is an old-school joint serving up delicious food. This dive bar has all your favorite bar foods but also savory pies. Every pie you order here is a Chicago, thin-crust style. You can choose from ten of their original recipes or create a pie to your liking. If you’re looking for a unique pie, try their Gyro pie. It consists of tzatziki sauce, beef, lamb, onion, and tomato. You can enjoy your pie on the patio while soaking up the live music.

4: Ruby’s Recipes

Ruby’s is a twenty minutes drive from town, but completely worth it. The founder of the joint named the restaurant after his mother, who inspired his love of food. They don’t offer any pre-created recipes for their pies on the menu because they want each patron to choose what they want. Their Italian street pies come with two toppings included, but you can always add more.

5: Your Pie

Everyone loves pie, and everyone especially loves a joint that offers something a little different. At Your Pie, there are plenty of developed recipes to choose from. While most places use a traditional white dough for their crust, here you have the option of having wheat dough. They also offer cauliflower and gluten-free crusts. To be more inclusive for their patrons, they also provide vegan-friendly cheese to add to your pie.

These five spots prove that you can find fantastic pie even in a small town. Once you’ve gotten your fix of the perfect melty pie, come by Chestatee Ford today for a vehicle that will get you to your next pie spot.
