Flowery Branch Yacht Club

Located on the corner of Church and Main streets in historic downtown Flowery Branch, you feel a delightful mix of experiences as you approach the front door. Outside, a Victorian Queen Anne cottage with its wrap-around porch, big shade trees and wild bamboo. Inside, a quaint bistro atmosphere, complete with piano bar and paintings by local artisans.

Owners Jeff and Alina Hills have created a warm establishment. As you enter the restaurant, you are greeted with smiles and welcomes. Then you walk into a relaxed lounge with easy chairs, sofa and fireplace. The rustic oak bar is adorned in nautical burgee's from across the United States.

Before moving from New Jersey, Jeff was working at a renowned catering establishment, The Manor in West Orange, New Jersey. Jeff was involved in the restaurant business for 13 years, and Alina wanted to establish a cosmopolitan eatery, that was when the Flowery Branch Yacht Club Restaurant was formed. It was a marriage made in heaven, in more ways than one. By viewing the seasonal menu and how they are specially prepared, you’ll know why.

Appetizer and dinner specials are based on what’s best in season, guaranteeing freshness and an original experience each time you visit.

Chef Michael Thorne's delectable menu features Seasonal Specialties and Yacht Club staples.

The lounge boasts a full-service bar and offers a large selection of mixed drinks, wines, imported beers, and champagne. It is also the perfect spot to relax and enjoy coffee, espresso our an after dinner drink while listening to the piano.

The desert menu offers many tempting treats including crème brûlée topped with berries, seasonal cobbler, and much more. These confections are beautifully artistic and sinfully delicious.

Call and arrange for the Hills and Chef Michael Thorne to choose an entire experience for you from entrees to the wines at the Chef's table. Your distinctive dinner can be served in the dining room or the private room. It’s a perfect way to celebrate a special anniversary, birthday, or business meeting.

The Flowery Branch Yacht Club unites excellent food, comfortable ambiance and an attitude that says, quite distinctly, Welcome!

User Reviews for Green Tea Restaurant

08/14/2007 Posted by cgg2nd

I don't know what the editors were smoking before eating at Green Tea Restaurant. I thought someone had "hacked" the voting in 2006 to award them the audience winner in the Fine Dining category. This is an average Casual neighborhood asian eatery. And I would stress the words Casual and Average.

Crossroads is a dream first realized by founders Vinnie Newman and Mike Harris early in 2001. Since both partners were Longhorn disciples, both had an inclination toward only the finest quality hand-cut steaks, fresh chicken, seafood and BBQ ribs.

Crossroads strives to serve GREAT food with friendly service in a warm setting. Our full service restaurant, complete bar, and a superb wine list, combined with our 55 years in the restaurant business assures that your dining experience will always be enjoyable!
