On Sunday, May 18th, the first monthly Westview ice cream social took place at The Big Apple Inn. Neighbors came out to brighten up a rainy Sunday by indulging in some home made ice cream, supporting a Westview business, and chatting about the latest happenings.
Join your neighbor’s for the next Ice Cream Social on Sunday, June 8, 2014!

Thanks to The Big Apple Inn you can now pick up the latest paper issue of Creative Loafing Atlanta at the corner of Ralph David Abernathy Blvd. and East Ontario Ave. This is very exciting considering southwest Atlanta is somewhat underrepresented in Creative Loafing’s circulation list. And what better way for The Big Apple Inn to ensure readers are aware of the consistent press they receive! Thank you April for getting Creative Loafing to Westview.
The Big Apple Inn is at it again – they’re back in the news! We couldn’t be more proud of one of our favorite local Westview restaurants being featured in Creative Loafing’s “2014 Atlanta cheap eats superlatives” article. Congratulations April, keep it up!

Westview’s commercial area continues to see development along Ralph David Abernathy Blvd. The newest addition to the Westview neighborhood is The Big Apple Inn, a take-out restaurant making headlines for its pig ear sandwiches.
However, The Big Apple Inn brings more than just a new business to the neighborhood, it brings family history. April Patton, the owner of The Big Apple Inn, is a fourth generation family member of the business that originated in Jackson, Mississippi. April’s cousin, Geno, still runs the family restaurant in Jackson. To watch more about the history behind The Big Apple Inn watch this video: http://vimeo.com/7439544
