Donderos' Grand Opening in New Location

SEPTEMBER 26, 2013
 - Athens, Georgia:

After almost 9 years as a thriving restaurant and catering business, Donderos’ has moved one door closer to Prince Avenue to 590 North Milledge Avenue, Athens, GA 30601. Donderos’ invites the community to a Grand Opening on Saturday, October 5, 2013, at 3:30pm, featuring live music by members of the Packway Handle Band.

The new location is in one of the oldest houses in the Cobbham Historic District and offers a much larger sunlit dining space with a warm and comfortable atmosphere. Along with a full espresso bar, patrons will find expanded parking in the back, more meeting space for casual gatherings, and a screened in porch. A dedicated play area for children welcomes families and contributes to the neighborhood coffee shop character of the new space. There is plenty of room for casual meetings and free wi-fi is available. The same frozen entrees and baked goods are for sale in addition to local Jittery Joe's and 1000 Faces coffee.
