Meet the Lobby Team
Join us at
The Lobby
A little history on us.
The Lobby is hosted in
a beautifully restored Old Bank Building in the downtown City of Winder.
​
Our team not only operates the Lobby as a ravishing dining experience, but actually helped during the build-out,
every step of the way.
​
From creating a chef inspired kitchen in an empty old hallway, to creating a
mid-century modern bar from a teller window, the team at The Lobby made sure that the finished product will make their guests experience truly
​
