I've ridden the AL side from the terminus at Weaver to Rockmart and back. The AL side really does spend a lot of time in the woods. You can pick up some drinks and snacks right on the trail in Piedmont, but we didn't travel off trail for me to suggest anywhere to eat either there or in Jacksonville. Late last summer there was a place being renovated right next to the trail, maybe to add a restaurant? somewhere between J'Ville and Piedmont. I think near Piedmont, but I'm fuzzy on the exact location. With JSU and the students, there's got to be somewhere off-trail in Jacksonville good to eat. But it's too near the end to be considered as an intermediate stop.

On our ride, we ate at Frankie's at our turnaround in Rockmart.
