The Story

Are you really a Maconite if you haven’t had a “Gooseburger” from The Grey Goose Players Club? Established in 1989, this iconic eatery has been run by Joe Hernandez since 2005. Inspired by his Cuban mother, who had him cooking young, Joe developed a passion for the kitchen, making Grey Goose a family affair. This cozy tavern has been a local favorite for over 30 years. Lunch features Loaded Seafood Nachos, a Bacon Swiss Mushroom Burger, and the Grilled Grouper Sandwich, while evenings offer seafood, steaks, and pastas.

Pair your meal with Pimento Cheese Balls or the signature Prickly Pear Martini. Their Hot Shot Burger won 2023 Macon Burger Week. Colorful aquariums delight younger guests, and weekly specials are posted online. Bring the family to enjoy the “Home of the Original Gooseburger”—a half-pound of chuck locals swear by and return for often here proudly together always now yes! A true local staple here.
