Marti's at Midday

Marti’s at Midday is a beloved Athens lunch gem that captures Southern charm with every bite. Nestled in a historic cottage in Normaltown, the cheerful patio and cozy indoor seating make it a sweet spot for a casual lunch or catch-up with friends. The sandwiches and salads are fresh, flavorful, and generously sized — especially customer favorites like the curry chicken salad and pimento cheese served with house-made pita chips. The staff are warm and welcoming, which adds to the inviting, homey atmosphere. Whether you’re grabbing lunch or picking up a box for a picnic, Marti’s delivers tasty food and good vibes every time.

Met there for a lunch date with a friend. The people who work there were so friendly and nice. While I waited for my friend, they went ahead had gotten me something to drink since she had been delayed. They were very accommodating to any needs we had during our lunch date. And even though it was closing time when we were still there, they didn't rush us out. The food is delicious and priced decent. You get plenty for your money. I highly recommend!

WOW! My first time trying this Athens Staple. 10/10*** The Turkey sandwich, pita chips, the sauce everything is amazing! The people are incredible, kind and caring, I loved the atmosphere- it definitely won’t be my last time!

One of my favorite lunch spots in Athens☺️! Food is delicious and satisfying. Staff is always friendly and helpful. Worth every penny spent. Parking can be rough at times, but after you go a few times you’ll get the hang of it🙂. As long as it’s still standing, I’ll always return🙂😋

We have been long time Martis lovers from our grad school days at UGA back in the day. We always stop in when we are in the area (aka within a 2 hour drive 😂) and it continues to be the best and a favorite. The pinto can’t be beat and the pita is always delicious. Top it off with a perfect summer day on the patio with a cold Mint Sweet Tea and you’ve got perfection. We’ve never had a bad meal here and the service is always so friendly and welcoming!
