If you’re from Georgia, or if you’re well-versed about the movie history surrounding the state, then it’s likely that you know all about Gone With the Wind and the special place this movie holds in the hearts of Georgians all over. In fact, movie lovers can make a road trip out of the 10 Gone With the Wind sites throughout Georgia, or simply get their fill at the Marietta Gone With the Wind Museum! But if you’re looking for a place that combines aspects of the movie and a delicious spot to chow down, then you have to check out Pittypat’s Porch in Atlanta.
If you’re familiar with the film Gone With the Wind, then you’d likely remember the story of when Scarlett would visit her Aunt Pittypat every time she visited Atlanta.
Pittypat’s Porch in Atlanta, Georgia is named after that aunt's place, where Scarlett would be prepared only the best Southern recipes and sit on the porch enjoying the cool evenings.
This two-level Southern restaurant offers refreshing beverages, scrumptious appetizers, plus traditional entrees that you would expect to find at Aunt Pittypat’s house.
More than just a restaurant, this dining experience offers wooden rocking chairs to sit in while you’re waiting for your table, plus sweet tea like you’ve stepped onto the set of Gone With the Wind.
You don’t have to be a huge Gone With the Wind film buff to enjoy Pittypat’s Porch, but it sure does make for an exciting meal when you feel like Scarlett O’Hara herself.
