Alex's Tavern
Bikers, working professionals, barflies, and nearby Rhodes College students all feel at home at this laid-back dive bar. Hang with the locals, play shuffleboard, groove to the jukebox, and have an ice cold beer and a Rocky burger. It’s routinely named one of the best burgers in town (the secret ingredient is Cavender's Greek Seasoning), and it tastes even better late at night, when the tavern hits its peak. Owner Rocky Kasaftes took the place over when his dad, Alex, passed away in 1978. In addition to the famous burger and wings, there’s also Rock-Mo’s excellent gumbo, ribs smoked outside the back door and, from time to time, Rocky’s mom’s veggie beef soup. Rocky has also been known to make a grilled cheese with pickles for customers, including Priscilla Presley.
