Where Teams Eat in Savannah: Group-Friendly Restaurants for Athletes and Coaches

The Five Spot boasts two convenient locations in Savannah, both equipped with a mouthwatering menu, serving up classic American fare with a Southern twist. From the cozy loaded mac-and-cheese to the flavor-packed pulled pork sandwich, the Five Spot is a home run for post-game meals. 

Bring the entire team to the oldest restaurant in Savannah–the Pirates’ House and enjoy its most prized treasure–the food! On top of a visit to your table from a “real-life” pirate, the Pirates’ House offers a crowd-pleasing assortment of dishes–including Southern favorites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp and grits and fried chicken.

Celebrate a game well played with the iconic Leopold’s Ice Cream! Since 1919 Leopold’s has become a favorite among locals, travelers and even the occasional celebrity guest. Its secret formula for ice cream has become an institution in Savannah, making it the ultimate post-game treat. 

Wexford, a newer restaurant in Savannah’s dining scene, has quickly become a favorite of locals and travellers alike. Its crave-worthy Irish fare is award winning for a reason. Its blend of hearty comfort food and perfectly seasoned sandwiches and sliders will leave everyone on the team wanting more but too stuffed for seconds! Nestled in the heart of Savannah’s City Market, it is an environment coaches and parents love with food everyone will crave.

Carey Hilliards, a true Savannah staple, has locations scattered across the city including Pooler, midtown, and the southside. Carey Hilliards is a seafood lover's top pick with an extensive menu offering everything from fried oysters and fish to land-loving options like hamburgers and fresh salads. Carey Hilliards does not accept reservations but each location has a spacious private dining area which can be requested for larger parties. 

Some say Spanky’s is the original creator of the chicken finger–and with the juicy, tender chicken fingers served there, we believe them! Spanky’s, best known for their chicken tenders and spuds, has been a Savannah tradition since 1976 and has expanded with locations on River Street, the Southside, Tybee Island and Pooler. Spanky’s does not accept reservations, but the flavorful dishes are worth the occasional wait.
