The three-story Frigidaire building was originally built in the early 1880s as the Athens Opera House. From 1942 to 1996, it was a retail space for Athens Refrigeration, and in 1997 Tasty World opened its doors as a two-stage music venue.
Many of Athens' newest rising stars got their start at this club, including acts like The Whigs and Modern Skirts. Acclaimed national acts like The Shins, Kings of Leon and The Hold Steady have also graced Tasty World's stage.
