Had lunch today at the Bistro. Place was so busy, yet we had our food within 15 minutes. Not 90 minutes like the place across the square. My Cuban sandwich was spot on, as well as the cowboy caviar. Service was fast and friendly And we could have our dog on the back porch. And a dog treat to boot. This is the best place I've tried in all of Ellijay

I love this little place in Ellijay. We were celebrating late birthday meal with my sister. It's always very good. I love the Cuban sandwich.

Was told they use real chicken breast for the salads. They just threw some sliced processed chicken sandwich meat on the salad. Not good... At All

Cozy spot with creative bites in a cute downtown district. Super sweet tea is fabulous! I enjoyed the apple butter autumn apple ham panini with an edamame salad. Hubby enjoyed their Ruben toasted rye sandwich. It made our tummies very happy and then we enjoyed a walk around the little downtown district! Please come by this little place - it is totally worth the money and time, and may lighten your spirit as well!

The chicken salad was amazing. My husband had a Cuban and he said it was good but nothing like the ones in Tampa.

A panini is a grilled/pressed sandwich...not a warm sandwich on dry toast. Food was disappointing. Man behind the counter was very friendly which why I give 3 stars instead of less. There are better places in the square if your looking for a bite to eat.

Quaint little sandwich shop with some quick bite options. This is not only the best place for a bite in old downtown, but arguably one of the better sandwich shops I have been to. I had a turkey panini on this visit. It was quite delicious. They also have some homemade pickles that are good too.

I stopped by Back Porch Bistro based on the reviews and they didn’t lie. This place has delicious food. I tried the Turkey Wild Rice soup and it was scrumptious. I ordered the Cuban and it did not disappoint. The owner has family from Cuba and the authenticity of the sandwich cannot be denied. My friend ordered the turkey panini and macaroni salad. She ate every bit of it and said it was delicious. The owners were friendly and inviting. We enjoyed the local guitar jam and the sweet tea was the icing on the cake. Please go and support this fine establishment!

Hands down the best bistro/cafe/sandwich shop that I’ve ever been too. Friendly staff and best of all delicious food. I had the hot ham and Gouda and my boyfriend had the club. Both were the best sandwiches I’ve ever tasted. You won’t be disappointed if you stop here for lunch! PS- highly recommend the cowboy caviar as well!

An amazing quaint bistro with delicious homemade food and a incredibly friendly staff. The apple slaw and cuban sandwich are worth the trip alone, then throw in a homemade cookie and your lunch is perfect.

Stumbled upon this gem in Elijay. May be a little hard to find coming in the front door, through an thrift shop but it is worth the find. Owner was extraordinary friendly and the food was phenomenal. Eat lunch here!!
