What does the city line do to the price?
Parts of Fulton County inside Atlanta reach 8.9%, according to Avalara: Georgia's 4%, Fulton's 3%, Atlanta's 1.5% and a 0.4% city transportation tax. Alpharetta, in the same county, charges 7.75% because it adds a 0.75% county transportation tax instead. These totals start from the chain's typical menu prices, not the board at any one Atlanta store.
