Spirits has excellent food and cocktails. Fabulous appetizers, burgers, plates, really everything. I personally love the kalettes appetizer. Their tater tots are perfectly cooked, hot and crispy; fantastic when dipped in their horseradish mayo. Monday night is trivia night!

Sightseeing and Local History

While the Gold Mines of the area might seem at first like a tourist trap this one is definitely worth a visit. The story of the Dahlonega gold rush is vital to the history of the area and a tragic reminder of what instigated the Trail of Tears. The tour of the mine is a must.
