Mary Mac's Tea Room

Welcome to ‘’Atlanta’s Dining Room!’’
Serving made-from-scratch classic Southern food with genuine hospitality in the heart of Atlanta for over seventy-five years.

Not many things have changed since we first opened our doors in 1945 – down to shucking bushels of corn and snapping fresh green beans by hand in our kitchen. Every morning, we bake our own scrumptious breads and desserts, like old fashioned banana pudding and fresh Georgia peach cobbler, and brew up the best sweet tea -- “Table Wine of the South”. Our foods include the crispiest, juiciest fried chicken you’ll ever taste and more than thirty fresh vegetables, including favorites like Fried Okra, new creations such as Tomato Pie, our world-famous Fried Green Tomatoes, and more. Many of our recipes were documented by former owner Margaret Lupo in the 1960s, while others have been passed down from family members over the years.
