Though not regular venues, there are a few restaurants and taverns around Coweta County that also host live music and other events occasionally, and they also serve food. Some of these are Jekyll and Hyde’s Sports Bar on 10 The Boulevard off U.S. Highway 29 North in Newnan, the Brickhouse Grille and Tavern at Thomas Crossroads, the Corner Tavern on Newnan Crossing Bypass and Twilight Bar and Grill on Raymond Hill Road in north Coweta. Ten East Washington in downtown Newnan also hosts live entertainment on Friday and Saturday nights. For those interested in sitting back and watching a movie on the big screen, there are three movie theaters in the county. The Regal Georgian Stadium 14 theater is located in one of Newnan’s largest shopping areas, Ashley Park on Newnan Crossing Bypass. Carmike 10 on Newnan Station Drive typically offers a diverse selection of movies and is located next
to a bowling center, Junction Lanes, which offers activities like glow golf and arcade games. The county’s newest movie theater is NCG Cinemas at Fischer Crossing. Convenient to Sharpsburg and Peachtree City, the location is one of the four NCG theaters that has Xtreme showings – movies in 3D on a giant screen with advanced sound – but less extreme showings are offered as well.
