In 1996 the tradition began in Kennesaw, Georgia with six tables and twelve barstools. Like his family before him, Bill Leanos dreamed of one day owning his own restaurant. A native of Annapolis, Maryland, he is a third generation restaurateur. Bill's grandfather, on his mother's side, was in the confectionery business in Baltimore. Grandfather Leanos founded and operated Jim's Corner restaurant in Annapolis. The establishment lasted for almost one hundred years. Handed down through the family it closed in 1998 and its original site is now called Leanos Park in Annapolis.

Bill's Father and Mother owned several restaurants during their careers, the latest being Annapolis Gourmet. Bill began his career in the restaurant business from his early years working with his father. In tandem, father and son created a highly successful deli and catering business in Baltimore's inner harbor.

The dream continued in August 2003 as Olde Towne Tavern was opened in Lawrenceville, Georgia. This beautiful, new restaurant is considered the best in the area. The Olde Towne name continues to grow. In 2005, Olde Towne Famous Grille opened at The Avenue West Cobb. In May of 2007 Old Towne Suwanee opened on the beautiful Town Center Park in Suwanee Georgia. This is truly a one of a kind experience with great views of the park and Gwinnett’s only outside bar.

As Olde Towne continues to grow we have built a reputation for uncompromising standards with excellent food, great staff, and honest value. Our goal is to create a cozy place to remember with family faces and an exciting atmosphere. We realize that you, our customer, are the single most important part of our success here at Olde Towne. We look forward to serving you and greatly appreciate your business.

Olde Towne's proud family heritage of hospitality continues.

Eat, Drink, & Enjoy!
