Residents of Brookhaven once had to drive outside their historic community to find decent dining. An explosion of growth over the last decade has changed all that. Now it’s a destination spot for shopping, living and dining, with the center of activity at Town Brookhaven, a state-of-the-art mixed-use development along Peachtree Road.

Frequently Asked Questions:How large are the tour groups?
The number of people will vary depending on the tour, but most groups will be limited to no more than 16. This makes the tour more manageable for both the guides and the restaurants.
How much does a tour cost?
Price of each tour is listed on its description page. Pricing for private or custom tours will vary. Please contact us to discuss private tour pricing.
What should I wear?
Most of our tours are walking tours, so wear comfortable clothing and walking shoes. It’s not a good idea to wear high heels or dress shoes. Check the weather on the day of your tour and dress appropriately – we’ll conduct our tours hot, cold, rain or shine. Don’t forget sunglasses, sunscreen, hats, coats or umbrellas depending on the weather. We will only cancel or reschedule if weather conditions are dangerous - we’ll contact you by email if this occurs.
Can I bring my camera?
Sure! There are lots of opportunities to take pictures during the tours.
Can I bring my dog?
Sorry, no pets. We’re visiting restaurants, and pets aren’t allowed unless they are service dogs.
Can I bring my kids?
Probably no. You’ll have to make that call, based on your child’s age/maturity, but most of our tours are not set up for children. The samplings at some of the restaurants may feature alcohol or may not suit the palate of children that are “particular.” If you’re not sure, then don’t.
How much food will we be eating?
Word to the wise: Come Hungry! There are enough tastings that most people will not need a meal afterwards. If you’re still hungry once the tour is over, feel free to go back to your favorite stop for more!
I have allergies!
We’re not doctors, but if you have allergies or sensitivities to any foods or items used in food production, it’s safe to assume that absolutely everything served on this tour is or contains an allergen of some sort. We encourage you to use the same discretion that has enabled you to live a full and healthy life to this point!
Will I need to bring cash?
Our tours are all inclusive, but it’s a good idea to have some extra cash on hand for souvenirs, gifts, an extra dessert to bring home, etc.
When should I arrive for the tour?
It’s very important that you arrive 15 minutes before the scheduled start time. We leave on time. If you’re running late, your confirmation will have a contact number to call.
Should I tip my tour guide?
In the tourism industry, it is customary to tip your guide. For Private Tours, a gratuity will be added to your total cost.
