Two Tire Tavern
A motorcycle-themed bar and restaurant on Helen's main strip, ranked #1 bar and pub in town on TripAdvisor. Moto décor, an outdoor deck for people-watching, and a draft beer list draw riders in after runs on the nearby Richard Russell Scenic Highway, GA-180 Wolf Pen Gap Road, and the Unicoi Gap. Free off-street parking accommodates large groups of bikes on the paved lot.
Two Tire Tavern sits right on North Main Street in Helen, making it an easy pull-in after a run on the Richard Russell Scenic Highway, the GA-180 Wolf Pen Gap Road, or through Unicoi Gap. The paved off-street lot out front accommodates large groups of bikes without the hassle of hunting for a spot on Helen's busy strip, which is reason enough for riders to choose it over other options nearby.
Inside, the moto-themed décor sets the tone, and the menu mixes American pub fare with authentic German touches — a nod to Helen's Bavarian-themed character. The outdoor deck faces the street and is dog-friendly, making it a relaxed place to sit, decompress, and watch foot traffic while working through a draft beer or a full meal. The bar carries a wide beer selection alongside cocktails and full-service bar options.
The place is family-owned and operated, and riders consistently note that the staff is accommodating to groups coming off mountain runs. It's open on weekends and select weekdays, so checking hours before planning a late-week detour is worth the extra step.
Dedicated off-street bike parking; moto-themed interior; central Helen location makes it the natural end-of-ride gathering spot for the GA-348 and Wolf Pen Gap runs.
