The staff were super friendly and the food was delicious! I didn't think savory crepes could be so good! Definitely recommend the deviled eggs! Their gumbo is also REALLY good! The atmosphere is so chill. I really liked the vibe. Open and friendly. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

We were passing through Athens, on our way from Augusta to Atlanta. We took a side tour and stopped in front of Pauley’s to check out the area and decided to look at the menu. We ordered the chicken and sausage gumbo, which had just the right amount of heat and good flavor. The salad had strawberries, walnuts, green apples, spinach and we added chicken to it. It was crisp and refreshing. We finished with the apple pie crepe which had cinnamon and graham crackers that paired nicely with our coffee. We also ordered a Brie and apple sandwich to go that we enjoyed a bit later. There is more than crepes (and apples) and there is a solid drink menu but we were traveling so didn’t partake. The flavors were good, the portions were just right and the environment was bright and airy. It was a very enjoyable discovery.

The food was phenomenal. I had the caprese crepe and will order that again the next time I visit Athens. The Bloody Mary was good. Service was very attentive. Plenty of seating options, cute ambiance.

Great lunch here. We had a Cuban, Chicken club crepe and Philly Cheese Steak, and for dessert we shared a crepe with sugar and lemon. We had a great coffee, Sweetwater 420 beer and an ice tea. Service and atmosphere are impeccable. Super place for a meal.

Pauleys is a very popular Athens mainstay, and just happens to employ some very kind and responsible individuals. One night, my friend left her wallet behind and a very kind gentleman named Matthew, who was working the bar, did a comprehensive sweep of the restaurant and found it before we even realized it was missing! Super friendly staff. Their only fans martini is also delicious.
