The Atlanta Greek Festival is not happening in its traditional format this year. However, organizers have come up with a community event called A Road Trip to Greece.
This event is a drive-thru only food experience that lets you roll through a food festival and order authentic Greek cuisine with limited contact. You can take the food home to enjoy in the safety of your own home. All of the dishes have been prepared by hand.
There is no admission fee to drive-thru the food line.
If you’re going to drive through the line to buy food, festival organizers prefer cashless transactions — so please bring a card if you can.
The menu is very affordable.
It ranges from $8 side items to $13 meal plates and $45 for family meals that feed nine to 12 people. There are daily specials for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. There’s even a build-your-own gyro kit for $35!
While you can head to the festival and drive through the food line, you may prefer to order online in advance — so you can skip the line and go straight to pickup. If you let a volunteer concierge know you’re there for curbside pickup, you’ll be directed to the right spot.
You can view the menu online. It opens as a PDF in a new window.
You’ll find the advance order form online as well.
