Five Points, Athens, Georgia has historically been one of the most desired neighborhoods where charm & convenience meet. Five Points is know to be a "walking community" convenient to shopping, restaurants, entertainment and historically appealing homes.
The community of Five Points borders the south & southwest sides of The University of Georgia and is home to many student rentals and many single family residences. The Friends of Five Points is a association of homeowners from the area whose mission is "... to further the safety and quality of life in the Five Points area".
This community is home to one of Athens Georgia's premier shopping districts. Visit Five Points to view an interactive map and learn more about some of the fanciful boutiques, exclusive interior appointments, great outdoor merchandise and more that abound in Five Points!
Whether you prefer biscuits, bagels or croissants for your breakfast, Five Points Deli is sure to please. For those of us with a sweet tooth, try the Chocolate Croissant for an occasional early morning blast of sugar or an "Ooey Gooey Bar" for an afternoon pick-me-up! Their desserts aren't listed on-line, but their cakes, cookies & bar treats are worth the visit and there is free street side parking!
Earth Fare Athens is situated in the heart of Athens, Georgia in Five Points. They are "...committed to bringing delicious specialty, gourmet and health foods to the University of Georgia (UGA) Campus and the Athens community in a friendly environment".

If you are looking for a dining experience, out to impress the parents, girlfriend, etc., check out the Five and Ten in Five Points! Hugh Acheson is Athens Georgia's celebrity chef and designated as one of America's Best New Chefs 2002. My personal, favorite dinner is the "Redneck Rissotto" and I've been known to cry over the specialty desserts like "White Chocolate Raspberry Brulee" that was featured for Valentines Day!
One of my personal favorites in Five Points is Jittery Joe's Coffee where "Each little brown bean is a labor of 
love". They also win my award for "Best Adaptive Use of Real Estate". The Five Points location is housed in a former gas station that was (in my humble opinion) an eyesore. The building is now attractive, funky, fitting and a delight to my eyes!
