Benny Paul’s Soul Food, Buckhead
On a recent photography trip, I reached Buckhead a little before noon. I noticed this little restaurant, which appears to have once been a convenience store and decided to give it a try. I was skeptical since there was no one there when I walked in, but I was greeted by owner Daisy Benford and her super friendly staff and quickly filled my plate with some of the best food I had on the entire trip. I had fried chicken (perfection!), mixed beans, collard greens and fried cornbread. The price was very reasonable, too. As I was leaving, hordes of people began to come in, and before I finished shooting the sites of downtown Buckhead, the adjacent parking lot was slam full. As many of you know, I rarely give recommendations, but this is a place you shouldn’t miss if you ever find yourself in the area.

The cornerstone notes that Buckhead Methodist was founded in 1824, and that the building committee for this church included R. N. Pirkle, Chairman; H. M. McWhorter; A. J. S. Jackson; J. W. Wright; Mrs. Julia Shouse; and J. A. Mason. Lawrence W. Neff was the pastor at the time. This is now home to Grace Bible Church.
