5 Best Places To Eat In Columbus, Georgia

Columbus, Georgia is my hometown, and I am so proud to be from this GREAT city. I think that we have some great restaurants, some are new and some are oldies, but either way, they are goodies. I have narrowed down five of the best restaurants in Columbus based on both my personal opinion and the opinion of others around me.

Guadalajara Mexican Restaurant

I had never been to Guadalajara until this past summer when I started dating my boyfriend and he insisted that it was the best Mexican food he had ever had. And, as hard as it is to admit....he was right. And this includes El Carrizo, which I HATE to say. I still love you, El Carrizo, you are a VERY close second. If you haven't been to Guadalajara, though, you really have to try it. You won't be disappointed. Get the chicken quesadillas. Or the chicken enchiladas. And don't forget the queso.

The Speakeasy

The Speakeasy has been around forever and it's been one of my favorites since I was little. My family went here ALL THE TIME. We always started with the Ranchos. They are the best nachos you will ever eat. I promise. I literally get something different every time I go. The Camel Rider, the Hombre, Greek pizza.... EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD. If you live in Columbus and haven't been to The Speakeasy....you're missing out on life and you have to go right now. There's also a game room. So, that's awesome.

Zombie Pig

This is another place that I never tried (because it is relatively new) until I started dating my boyfriend. It's a barbecue place. And, before you write this restaurant off because you don't like barbecue, it doesn't matter. You will like this barbecue. It's the only barbecue my boyfriend likes and he LOVES it. They give you a HUGE barbecue sandwich and that barbecue will melt in your mouth and I'm not exaggerating. The sandwich is so big, you will probably have to eat some of the barbecue by itself before you can even eat the sandwich. Their sauces are also amazing. And their sides. It's delicious and very affordable.

Country's Barbecue

I would pretty much be crazy not to include this one because so many people love it so much. It's basically a town staple. Columbus just wouldn't be Columbus without Country's barbecue. My aunt loves Country's chicken fingers and with good reason, they really are delicious. I also love the Cue Stew. If you like Brunswick Stew and you like barbecue, the Cue Stew is perfect for you. Country's also has a great environment. It's hard not to feel welcome there.

The Cannon

The Cannon is a bit more expensive, but it's awesome. It's downtown and in a great area for shopping and just walking around in downtown. I go to school in Augusta, Georgia and I was at Buffalo Wild Wings once and saw a sign for The Cannon is Columbus. I'd say that's proof enough for how great it is. My favorite thing that they have is the Monte Cristo.

So, there you have it. Five of the best restaurants in Columbus. Get out there and try them all!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
