The Vine Cafe & Market

I loved my mid day experience at the Vine this week. I happened to walk in on their 5th year anniversary celebration. There was an awesome jazz player. The food is always delicious and the environment welcoming and family oriented. Definitely a hidden gem in the Douglasville area.

There is a hidden jewel across from the train tracks in Douglasville, Georgia called The Vine Cafe & Market. When you enter the storefront restaurant an electic, artistic vibe with an urban feel welcomes you. To your right is hand-crafted artisan jewelry. A little further down paintings from contemporary artists line the wall. Further down still, homemade cosmetics which brings you to cooler with fresh squeezed lemonades and now you are at the counter where you can order tasty meals made from locally sourced ingredients. Food for soul. Raging cajun bowl, chicken & waffles, or maybe something vegan. They have something for you. Giving this restaurant your patronage benefits the community's farmers and artists. It's a win-win with a yummy twist. So stop on by.

The Vine was a nice vintage yet chic place. I wasn't able to try the wine but the quinoa bowl was delicious. We added grilled chicken to the bowls which added additional flavor. This place got 4 stars because they are kinda slow, waited about 30 minutes before we got our food and it wasn't anyone in there. Other than that the food is a great place for a healthy option.
