Excellent Customer Service and Yummy Food

My son got married on 11/06/20 in the middle of a pandemic. We had a DIY wedding at Cavendar Castle in Dahlonega. It was hard to find a caterer and then we found Scott’s Downtown in Gainesville. Kay was wonderful to work with and help with suggestions on food and how to follow all the Covid guidelines too. They arrived on time with all the food prepared and ready to serve. Everything worked out great and Kay was always easy to communicate with throughout the entire planning process.

Beyond our Expectations


As it turns out, our choice of The Loft at Scotts for our daughter’s wedding reception was fortuitous! We are so pleased with our experience. The room was lovely, and the food was delicious. The service was excellent all around and we especially enjoyed working with Lindsey. We received many compliments from our guests. Our daughter and her husband had a wonderful wedding reception and are completely satisfied.
Their professionalism and attentive service was exceptional. We will recommend The Loft to our family and friends!

Exceeded Expectations

One thing you want to make sure of is that your wedding guests enjoy the food, and our guests were not disappointed. Kay is a pleasure to work with and she knows what she's doing. The quality of service was excellent, and so was the food. This is one thing you won't have to worry about as you plan your wedding activities!

Elegant! Perfect! Outstanding!

Elegant! Beautiful! Outstanding! Perfect in every way! These words describe our experience at Scott’s Downtown Restaurant in Gainesville, GA.
We recently entertained there with a large Bridal Breakfast. It exceeded all our expectations. The owners, Kay and Scott Dixon, were gracious and willing to help in every way. The menu received rave reviews from the guests. A special treat was the Avocado Toast and Bananas Foster French Toast with Rum Foster Syrup. Fabulous!
The wait staff was pleasant and obviously cared about their service. We highly recommend Scott’s for lunch, a lovely evening meal, or a celebratory party. Whatever you choose, we are confident it will be delightful.

Kay and her team did an incredible job at making our rehearsal dinner absolutely amazing! They worked with us to create a menu of all of our favorite foods and they were so accommodating to our wishes for the evening. I never had to lift a finger (except for my wine glass) at the event and I was thrilled with the venue, food and staff. You will not be disappointed if you choose Scott's!

We had our Wedding & Reception at the Loft above the restaurant and it was a dream come true experience!! We received so many compliments on the venue and how beautiful it was! The food and service staff were Amazing and I would recommend this to anyone for a wedding, reception, catering, etc. We are going to go back there for our one year anniversary to eat in the restaurant! We hope to do this on every anniversary for many years to come! I can't say enough good things about this restaurant and our experience working with them! They were so accommodating and helped me with everything on my "wish list" to make my wedding day and the reception everything I had dreamed of!

We had our daughter’s wedding reception at The Loft at Scott’s. Words seem inadequate to express how wonderful our experience was. Every detail including planning meetings, the menu, the food, all the services provided by the staff at Scott's, the venue, the decor and the coordination with participating vendors was executed with a very high level of professionalism. We have received numerous positive comments from family and friends about how much they enjoyed the reception at Scott’s. We would recommend Scott’s without reservation to anyone planning a special event like a wedding.
