Georgia: These Restaurants are Just Peachy for Dairy-Free Diners

Last Update in March 2023! When you think of the South, heavy cream and butter dishes might come to mind. But the Peach State is a fertile place with a broad culinary scene ranging from classic comfort food to fresh plant-based cuisine. That’s why we’ve created this ever-growing guide to restaurants, bakeries, cafes, ice cream shops, and stores in Georgia that are friendly to dairy-free diners. It’s a collection based on research and reader recommendations (send yours!) that’s divided into restaurants & shops by city (first) and major chains found throughout the state (second). And we’ve started a section for specialty dairy-free foods produced in this state.

We Update Continuously! You can ignore the original date on this post going forward. We update the information below whenever we’re alerted to a new recommendation, change, or closure.

Dairy-Free Georgia: Recommended Restaurants & Shops

Many Georgia specialties are heavy in dairy. But this fertile state is also ripe with fresh fruit, vegetables, peanuts (often served boiled!), and pecans that many chefs prepare in fresh ways. So look for restaurants that boast local and plant-based cuisine for a dairy-free taste of the South. In the cooler months, your taste buds can take shelter in more comforting Georgia dishes, like Brunswick Stew and good old-fashioned barbecue.

We’ve listed recommendations alphabetically by city and then by the restaurant or shop name. For large chains with locations throughout the state of Georgia, see the Major Restaurant & Grocery Chains section below. We have dedicated posts with dairy-free details for many of the big guys.
