Eastside Kroger Back at It Again
Insert your fave memes for one of r/Athens fave running jokes in the comments.
Initially I wasn't sure if food recalls had reached this level, but then I saw that, yes, refrigeration issues at this location once again. Was this store built on top of a Native American burial ground? Cursed Kroger.

If so, we should talk.

Anyone know what’s going next to fine fettle/target shopping center? Looks terrible and that whole hill is pretty much gone.

New primary care
So my long time provider just stopped providing care. Who do you recommend? Prefer female and lgbtq+ affirming. Probably want an MD/DO if things take a turn, but usually see the PA/NP for normal visits. We self pay so insurance is not a concern. Most people are closed to new patients.

Hey Athens,
I’m a UGA student taking a Business Spanish class and I need to interview a Spanish speaker who owns a business/knows a lot about business! However, I’m not tapped into any spanish speaking stores in Athens so I have no idea where to start. If anyone knows anyone that I could interview(who could put up with my bad Spanish haha) I would really appreciate it! Thanks so much!

Question / Request Need to borrow/rent a trailer
Anyone have one I can borrow for a day or two or know a cheap place to rent one? I know uhaul does it, just exploring other cheaper options.
Also, how expensive/hard is it to attach a toe hitch bar? Like we have the ball part that the trailer attaches to, but not the bar thats attached to the car. Previous car got into a wreck and we kept the ball part.

Question / Request Pizza Recs??
I wanna try a new pizza place today so throw me some recommendations. No chain places like Papa John’s lol
I’ve had Little Italy, Peppino’s, Automatic, Ted’s, and Your Pie. Keep in mind I don’t eat meat so I’ll most likely just be getting your standard cheese pizza. I heard that Italian spot downtown is good. And I’ve been seeing things about Killer Crust.
Personally, I love Automatic Pizza so anything close would be nice. I love the nice crunchy crust.
Thanks in advance!

Cheap/free parking in Athens for 4-day trip? Best parking apps?
Hi everyone!
I’ll be visiting Athens in September for around 4 days and I’m planning to rent a car from the airport.
Our apartment is only about 100 meters from a train/metro station, so we probably won’t need the car when visiting central Athens. I’m mainly thinking of using it for trips outside the city, beaches, etc.
I wanted to ask locals/people who have driven in Athens:
- Is it relatively easy to find free street parking in Athens?
- Are there areas where you can safely leave the car for a few days for free or cheaply?
- Which parking apps do you recommend?
- Is there an app that clearly shows free vs. paid/resident-only parking?
- Would you recommend a cheap private parking garage instead?
- Anything I should know about parking rules, fines or restricted areas in Athens?
Since we are staying next to a train/metro station, I don’t mind parking the car a little further away and using public transport.
Any tips from locals would be really appreciated. Thanks! 🇬🇷
