Moonie’s Texas Barbecue on Atlanta Highway in Flowery Branch has been a popular spot for barbecue for the past year.
Flowery Branch is starting to see rebirth in a part of town once marked by aging buildings, failing businesses and a permanently parked yellow school bus that used to sit next to the railroad tracks. It’s not a case of extreme makeover, but some improvements are taking place on the Buford side of Ga. 13/Atlanta Highway and even further into the historic downtown along Railroad Avenue. “I think the whole corridor is turning out pretty good,” City Planner James Riker said.
