Five and Ten

The flagship restaurant of Chef Hugh Acheson. Since opening in 2000 it has received national acclaim

After working under Chefs Rob MacDonald, Mike Fennelly and Gary Danko, Acheson found his own style forging together the beauty of the South with the flavors of Europe. In 2000 Acheson and his wife moved to Athens to open Five & Ten. In its infancy Acheson envisioned a neighborhood restaurant that would be universally loved for being a significant part of the community. Five & Ten has become that a

Sundays at 5&10
After a long break, we’re excited to welcome you back to Five & Ten on Sundays!
In place of our regular Monday-Saturday menu, Sundays will feature a menu inspired by the vibrant flavors of contemporary Mexican cuisine, highlighting seasonal ingredients.
Crafted by Chef Fausto Zamorano, who brings the essence of Mexico City to every dish, the menu will showcase elevated snacks, small plates, entrées, and a unique weekly dessert.
Join us from 3pm as our bar opens early, offering a selection of snacks and our full beverage list, including Mexican beer, and a variety of tequila and mezcal cocktails.
End your weekend on a high note by spending your Sundays with us at Five & Ten.
Please note, the Monday-Saturday 5&10 menu will not be available on Sundays.

Staff highlight! Introducing one of our veteran servers, Katie Falleta…

Hi! 🌞 my name is Katie Falletta, and I am from Hoschton, GA.

I’ve been serving for over a decade and find so much joy in guiding Athenians along a creative food journey!

I’ve been with 5&10 for almost a year and a half and can absolutely call it my happy place! When you consider the food, the wine, and the amazing atmosphere, there’s no better place to spend an evening!

My favorite thing about working at 5&10 is seeing a guest’s face light up when they try something new and fall in love with it!

If I had to pick a favorite menu option, it would absolutely have to be our Black Forest Cake, plus a scoop of our house made vanilla ice cream (the best ice cream in the world), and a lovely tawny port to pair. 😋

Come give it a try and let me know what you think!

XOXO,

Katie
