2.) A DELECTABLE DINNER FOR TWO.
Pizza is always delicious, but pizza from Ingleside Village Pizza? It's out of this world good! Their prices and size of slices truly give you the best bang for your buck! The Ultimate Village, topped with meats and veggies, is sure to curb your appetite. Looking for something a little cheesier? The White Pizza with ricotta cheese, spinach, mushrooms and extra cheese is divine. Don't forget to add an order of sloppy garlic bread and ask for extra sloppy if you are a butter, parmesan lover.

5.) Enjoy Live Music At Grant's Lounge
Grant's Lounge has affordable concerts with tickets typically not going over $20 dollars but the bands you see will make you say, "wow that's all?!" This historic Macon staple is known as one of the birthplaces of Southern Rock as Lynryd Skynrd, Marshall Tucker and the Allman Brothers(just to name a few) all have graced the stage in the early 1970s and now the legacy lives on with recent renovations making it still a major Macon music venue. Groove and boogie all night and you may find your new favorite band in here!
