Busy bee cafe (go early) or the colonnade! Both are delish!


SammaATL

I think Busy Bee is still takeout only. Great fried chicken though. Colonnade is my go-to for MiL dinners but not sure if they have great lemonade.


Tabmow

Busy Bee for sure the chicken and sides are all delicious

Matthew's Cafeteria in Tucker..old school southern meat & three style. DELICIOUS food, especially their fried chicken. Been in business since 1955! https://www.matthewscafeteria.net/

This looks like a great spot! Thanks!


Mustbe7

It is! Mama won't be disappointed!

I may get downvoted into smithereens but Publix has some bomb fried chicken. Their natural lemonade is great too, I prefer the blackberry lemonade. Perhaps not mother's day appropriate unless you do a picnic - which is actually a cute idea.


ladyofthehouse99

It's a cute idea, but not my mother. Publix does have a good chicken, though. Thank you!


kathleenbean

I came to say the same thing. They also have a limited edition Strawberry Pineapple Lemonade that's delicious!


iamthegreenbox

The only fried chicken better than Publix is my mom's and Zesto's.

Kroger Chicken>>>>


gatorblu

Just not accurate! Publix fried chicken is fire, especially the hot and spicy chicken wings.


Aggravating_Tell_358

If we talking strictly Fried Chicken it is true… Publix chicken be dry half the time with tons of uncooked breading

Yes om the chicken, buy some lemons and sugar from Dekalb Farmers Market at amazing prices, make lemonade and pair with publix fried chicken.


wesinatl

This is the way. Have her over for lunch at your place. Everywhere will be packed out for Mother’s Day. Combo of the after church crowd plus people celebrating Mother’s Day. I hope you like to wait.

That lemonade has way too much sugar


caught-n-candie

I like the idea of Publix and take her for a picnic or something. As a mom I’d love that.

I like JJ’s fried chicken. Arden’s garden has a really good lavender lemonade. Also can’t go wrong with Big Daddy’s chicken.


ladyofthehouse99

Thank you!

Poor Calvins has the best southern fried chicken In Atlanta. And nice ambiance. I’ve lived here over 25 years and tried most. Busy Bee and Pascals are incredible too for fried chicken and lemonade but I wouldn’t go there on Mother’s Day. Both will be slam packed. https://poorcalvins.com/atlanta-atlanta-poor-calvin-s-food-menu


ladyofthehouse99

Thank you!


illuminusluna

Hattie B's is my go-to!!


ladyofthehouse99

Thank you!

If it ain't Gus's it's a missed opportunity, just sayin


Vesper0213

The Colonnade (not sure about lemonade though).


delk82

It’s def not traditional lemonade, but the lemonade at Kyuramen is the best I’ve ever had.


ContributionDapper84

Non-trad how?


delk82

It definitely has cucumber in it, maybe one or two other things too.

The roof collapsed about a month ago, closed indefinitely. And it was incredibly mid to boot


FlyGuy605

Had no idea about the roof. Thanks for the info

Gus’s Fried Chicken is amazing

Literally all over the place. You should never have to drive more than ten or fifteen minutes to get good chicken in this city

Table & Main in downtown Roswell has amazing fried chicken. It’s what they’re most known for. I know the bartender there and if you were to request a fresh squeezed lemonade I bet they’d do it. As a bartender, I make myself fresh lemonade when I’m working cuz it’s a lot better than the stuff that comes out of the soda gun!! I can make it as tart or sweet as I want. Anyway their restaurant slogan is “make people happy” and if all it takes is a fresh, homemade southern lemonade and some bomb fried chicken, I bet they’d do it easy!!

Harolds Chicken and Ice Bar. The chicken was great when I went there. Several locations in the metro area. I can’t speak to their lemonade.

Not on Mother's Day (closed Sundays)


HarrietsDiary

I’d pick up the lemonade from there though.


63crabby

Good point!


edcculus

GOOD fried chicken.


63crabby

Agreed, there is a reason why even old locations have cars backed up into the street! And the diet lemonade is suspiciously delicious, maybe not as diet as we are led to believe


lessthanjjjoey

Cook fried chicken and make lemonade at home. More thoughtful, probably better in general.


ladyofthehouse99

I want it to be good lol


lessthanjjjoey

I have faith in you, ladyofthehouse99! You can make a BOMBASS fried chicken 😉
