Central Station and Bakery

Welcome to The Corner Table – our guide of local tastes that make up South Georgia’s unique culinary heritage.

Arrive early—this place is popular for a reason. By 11:45 a.m., the line is often out the door, with the dining area filled to capacity. Becky and Donna, the hands-on owners, learned their craft from their mother, and it shows in every bite.

Central Station offers a menu full of fresh, made-to-order dishes. Their desserts, crafted by an in-house pastry chef, are a must-try, with freshly baked bread available for purchase. I opted for the grilled chicken sandwich—tender, juicy, and seasoned to perfection. Paired with a side of crispy fried potatoes (French fries), it was one of the best meals I’ve had in a while.

And don’t leave without dessert! The flourless chocolate torte I tried was rich, decadent, and absolutely perfect. Whether you’re there for lunch or just a sweet treat, this spot will leave you wanting more.
