Old School Diner

You would never find the Old School Diner on your own, but thanks to word of mouth and celebrity buzz (Ben Affleck has been known to frequent the establishment), the out-of-the-way eatery has become a hot spot for seafood and soul food lovers. Located near the Harris Neck Wildlife Refuge in Townsend, Georgia, the Old School Diner features freshly made seafood dishes prepared by the much-beloved Chef Jerome. From fried favorites such as shrimp, oysters and flounder to healthier fare including lobster, salmon and shrimp Creole, the Old School diner is a seafood lover's paradise. Chef Jerome also serves up tasty barbecue and other southern favorites. But food isn't the only reason to head to this hidden gem. The eclectic restaurant features room after room of photo- and memorabilia-lined walls. You could spend hours perusing the restaurant's unique interior and chatting with Chef Jerome, who frequently emerges from his kitchen to greet guests.
