Augusta Eats: North Augusta tavern offers original flavors with Southern flair
The Augusta area’s dining choices keep getting better. It seems that a couple of times a year, a unique, locally owned and operated restaurant brings a unique perspective to their food, often with a Southern flair that makes it more special. The owners of Brinkley's Chop House in North Augusta recently expanded their portfolio with Brink's Tavern, a more casual restaurant that opened in August in the new Beacon Bluff development on Georgia Avenue.
