We’re constantly being surprised at how historically charming Helen, Georgia is every time we visit. While right about now it’s the time of year for people in Helen to tube the Chattahoochee River, we have another reason to visit this Alpine town. If you’re a fan of things savory…and even all things sweet…check out this one-of-a-kind bakery and cafe.
Hofer’s Bakery and Cafe in Helen, Georgia is a true German gem right in the heart of town.
