Fenders Alley — Restaurant in Cornelia

Great location and atmosphere. The open air vibe of Fenders Alley and music venue is great. The staff was very friendly and attentive as well. The food was typical bar and pub offerings so nothing stood out on the menu as a "must try" for us. We started with the Disco Fries. We rated them a 6. Flavor was ok but they could have been a bit crisper to start with since they were in a bed of melted cheese. We also ordered the bang bang tacos and again we rated them a 6... maybe a 7? Tortillas were crispy and toppings were good and fresh but frozen shrimp texture was a bit off when the batter comes off on the first bite. We also ordered the beef tips and red skin mashed potatoes. It was served in a skillet but looked like a mess. We rated it a 4 due to plate appearance, taste and texture. The seasoning was ok but the beef was tough to chew and the gravy wasn't very good. Then there was this huge piece of cheese on top that I wound up just pushing to the side. This one dish probably should not be on the menu in our opinion or we would recommend reimagining the dish and lose the cheese. Still would go back and try...

If you're hungry and ready to sit relax and enjoy dome food, dontWe came to this place at 5:55pm on a Wednesday, Oct 8, 2025. We had to wait 11 mins just to be seated. After we got our table it took 43 mins for someone to even come and get our drinks order. At this point if it wasn't because we were playing trivia with TJ, we could've left. No one came to our table to at least check in or apologize for the wait. I understand if you're under staffed, but that doesn't justify the huge lack of customer service or the fact that the few staff members didn't seem to care or rush to get people seated and take orders. We finally got our food at 7:26pm (yes, I timed this because it was absurd). I ordered onions rings and surprise surprise, they were cold and mushy. When it came to getting our ticket and pay, they were so fast, within 5 mins they took care of us. First and last time...

We had so much fun. We got to eat outside but with a roof over our heads. There was a guy from Alabama playing good music. The food was Great! I'm on keto diet, and got to eat a keto wrap! there were people playing pool, dancing, and other games. I will definitely return!

EDIT Thank you for being responsive, Fenders, as were the staff! A couple things I should have mentioned: the keto sandwich was the best I've had. When I said wheelchair access was somewhat difficult, that wasn't due to any errors on Fenders' part; it's just a "hill-y" street. but once inside, it was thoroughly worthwhile. Please thank the...
