The Pink Pig is located in Cherry Log. You would go north on 515. Takes less than 10 minutes to get there. BBQ is the specialty, but they also have burgers and other items like fried chicken tenders, chicken livers, grilled chicken with peppers and onions. The chicken tenders are hand breaded and some of the best you will eat. My favorite is the Sam's Special.....BBQ pork sandwich on Garlic toasted texas toast. My (grown) daughter always gets the chicken tenders, great no matter how old you are. My husband is a fan of the chicken livers. Onion blossom, fried pickles, or Brunswick stew to start with. The Garlic Salad is a house special recipe, and if you like garlic it's awesome. A family business since 1967, passed from grandfather to granddaughter.

Great cajun seafood place. Not terribly expensive. Fried, grilled, blackened. We've been eating here for years and never disappointed. Located in a historic building near the old Ellijay train depot.
