Back before the Clayton Cafe became the Clayton Cafe it was the original Trailways Bus Station for Rabun County. When the bus station closed the Clayton Cafe was born. The original sign that is still used to this day in front of the Cafe is the Trailways Bus sign turned upside down. It has been painted and the Clayton Cafe name added. It is a part of the history of this county and the Cafe.

Another piece of the Clayton Cafe history that is a bit famous is our visit from Mr. Walt Disney. In 1956 Walt Disney brought his filming production team to Rabun County to film the Great Locomotive Chase. Mr. Disney loved our beautiful community and visited a lot of the local establishments. One of his favorites was The Clayton Cafe. When you dine in the Cafe you will see photos of him having his meals here.
