33 Best Beer Bars in Atlanta

“The dim lights, light music, beautiful architecture, wonderful wait staff, and the food is one of a kind! Cooked to perfection and not one second overcooked… we enjoyed our waitress Amanda! Very accommodating and knowledgeable about the menu. Will be back many times in the future!!“

“Really great option on this side of town. The server was very sweet, she moved just a little too slow which is my only complaint. The food is great, the boom boom shrimp was really good and burger. But I wasn't that big of a fan of my bulgogi bowl. The server was honest that some people don't like it. I added a picture of it. It was pretty. But I'm adding it because I couldn't find one online.“

“Absolutely great customer service and excellent food and coffee! Came after the Taylor Swift Concert and the place was hoppin’! The staff were all awesome and friendly even with how busy they were. The coffee was excellent, Lavender Haze on the Taylor’s menu was chefs kiss! They were even kind enough to make my 8 year old a Taylor’s version hot chocolate with a little lavender in it! Food was delicious! We will absolutely be back on our next Atlanta visit!“

“Taproom is our go to spot for meetings, great coffee and excellent service. Been a neighborhood staple/homebase for years. Love this place.“

“Try the black truffle deviled eggs!!!“

“So glad I finally got here! The staff was welcoming and friendly; the vibe is nice and comfortable; the beer is very good! Wish I lived closer because I’d be here often!🍻“

“a cozy gastro pub, with a friendly staff, great food, awesome patio and an amazing wall mural of a fox & owl..“

“Definitely our new go-to spot for team dinners. We had a blast. Laura is a phenomenal server. The food was incredible. We had a Vegan in the mix and she had so many options. Don't sleep on the chickpea fries. Or the normal fries, or pretty much anything on the menu. Wine selection was on point, too, and the bartender was so helpful with explaining the wines and what we might like.“

“Love walking over here for solid selections of non-alcoholic & THC bevvies. Dozens of beer selections on draft or solid range of canned craft. There’s a lot of range of wines bottled or draft, but I don’t really drink that frequently. Sake selection is also solid. Can’t sample here since it looks like it’s a package store, but seasoned bartenders usually give solid recs and can help point you in the right direction. They have giveaways frequently on IG and haven’t won one yet but trying (pls pick me)!!! Super chill spot.“

“Stunning. Some of the best mead I’ve had anywhere in the country and the non-alcoholic option “The Sun” was ‘tell all your friends’ worthy. The atmosphere and staff are stellar. We left gushing about what a nice time we had. Thank you!“

“Amazing experience!! The food and drinks were awesome; however, most importantly the customer service was TOP TIER!! I will definitely be a regular customer.“

“Absolutely one of the best Vibe places I have ever experienced.“

“This place was great! After an experience next door we crashed here and was NOT disappointed. We were greeted and reviewed the menu. Ordered the eggplant parmesan, meatballs, pizza and wine. We sat at the bar in front of the wood fire ovens. Got to watch our meals being prepared and had the most pleasant conversation with the pizza makers. The meatballs were FIRE! They were amazing, wonderful combo of meats and hand made…AMAZING. The pizza was also just the best pizza I have had in a long time. They finish with actual Italian olive oil which took the experience to another level. Then oh whoa almost forgot about their dessert. We ordered the pistachio cake and tiramisu. WOW, the dessert was simply beautiful and perfect amount of sweetness. Everything was fresh and amazing. All the employees there were wonderful welcoming and kind. Such a great place! Will be back for sure!!“

“Gorgeous interior. Nice bartenders. Black owned. I enjoyed.“

“This is a great place. I wonder how I missed it since the last 3 years. Great drinks and a great atmosphere. They allow outside food and our dogs also. Great vibe yet very peaceful. There is a lot of variety of alcoholic drinks, they are very fresh. Unfortunately for me only one non-alcoholic drink is available - root beer. But I loved this drink. A lot of games are available. Lovely dogs to play with. The owner lady is very lovely and friendly. I recommend this place 100%“

“I got the skinny margarita, and it was perfect. It was made exactly how I like my margs. Easily a 10/10 cocktail!

They have a nice selection of draft beers, but don’t overlook the cocktails. Based on my margarita alone, the bar staff clearly knows what they’re doing. 🍹✨“

“Traveling in the area and was looking for a bite to eat, discovered Fat Matts and so glad we did. Awesome food and service, some of the best ribs we have had. Down to earth great people and loved seeing them take care of their community. 10/10 would recommend“

“Kourtland was beyond amazing!! He’s such an asset and probably the best server I’ve ever had. He was attentive, knowledgeable, hilarious, kind, passionate and so much more. He deserves a raise and we will definitely be coming back just to see Kourtland.“

“Muy excelente la atención“

“I Was Completely Blown Away At This Restaurant. I Was Sat By A Beautiful Host Which Turn Out To Be My Server. Renisha Was Very Knowledgeable About The Ga Craft Beers. She did an amazing job by explaining each item on the menu. I Gave Her The Opportunity Of Ordering My Food and Beer. Oh Boy She Did Not Disappoint. I had the Blackened Catfish with rice and beans and an Orange Still Diva Beer To Drink. It was her two favorite items and I had no complaints! Renisha service was the best service I have had in years. My water cup was never low and if I had more time I would have had another beer. Renisha Was Very Patient With Me Even Though The Restaurant Was Very Busy. She is also a team player and is willing to pick up the slack from others. As A Restaurant Manager Please Give This Server Her Flowers, She Deserves it !“

“Aces Ale House is an absolute gem, and my recent visit was nothing short of exceptional. The ambiance is vibrant, with an inviting atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The star of the show, undoubtedly, is Lillie, the brilliant and beautiful bartender who not only possesses an impressive intellect but also crafts drinks that are nothing short of masterpieces. Lillie's concoctions are a testament to her mixology prowess—each sip is a journey through layers of flavors expertly combined.“

“My friend and I were starving and although we were surrounded with bars most of them had stopped serving food. Luckily Ormsby's was still open and we were able to catch the kitchen at the last minute. Joshua got us a table and put in our order just in time for the kitchen. He's a host and he definitely didn't have to do that. We were so grateful. Then we met our actual server Joseph. Let me tell you as a fellow industry worker, I have so much respect for the way this man can work a room. He was so friendly and took exceptional care of us despite how busy the bar was. My friend had never been to Ormsby's and now she can't stop talking about it. The food was great, but we're definitely coming back to see Joseph. Next time we'll get there earlier. :)“

“Omg! This is the place to be! I love the food, everything well seasoned and perfectly cooked! I want to give a shot out to the amazing chef Mooka! Very professional staff, and I give this place a 10 star ⭐️ review. I will be returning“

“Muy excelente la atención“

“Inviting atmosphere, knowledgeable Mixologist, a well curated selection of spirits. My wheelhouse is whiskey, served neat. They had several top shelf selections I have been looking to try, and many that I will return to try. Not sure what to try, just ask, they will not steer you wrong. Thanks for catering to my taste. Kudos!“

“Great atmosphere, service, food is delicious and clean environment. Military Discount available.“

“If you like Caribbean food - this is good! Plus good music from the dj (if you like reggae) 😎“

“Amazing experience! We loved everything and the service was impeccable.“

“Great hole in the wall with a kitchen serving bar food. Open lunch and dinner. This is one of the last couple of places you can get cheap drinks in town. Two pool tables and dart boards. Usually open a little bit later than other places around ATL too“

“Always have a great time here. whether I'm alone or with friends. great food and better drinks😊“

“After all my years in Atlanta I finally had the chance to experience Park Tavern. After a day in the park, I told my friends I wanted wings. They advised that the wings at Park Tavern were good and we should go. Of course I am always game for trying new places, thus we walk across the grass and into the Tavern. Immediately upon walking in I am in awe of the amount of space, this establishment does not look this big from the outside. However, it is hugeeeeeeeeeee!!! As the weather was beautiful and the atmosphere on the covered patio was vibrant, we decided to sit in that area. Park Tavern has a almost “Self-Serve” kind of setup and I love it. You go to the bar to place your order. Upon placing your order they take your cell number as they may text you when your food is ready to be picked up. Once you receive the text which states “This is Park Tavern! Your food is ready!” you head to the second bar and pick up your order, grab your utensils and condiments and head back to your seat. This flow works so well and is to the benefit of myself as a customer as well as the establishment as a whole. With the staff shortages that are plaguing the Atlanta area, this model is aligned to work to the benefit of all! (In my personal opinion!) I decided to get the 10 piece wings “Hot” with a side of Tater Tots. Once my food was ready, I immediately went to pick it up. I emphasize the word “immediately” as though there was no delay in my time from advisory of food readiness to pick up, my tater tot’s were already cool. I won’t say cold, however, they were cooler than room temperature but two steps above cold. However, for a non fresh hot tater tot they were still good. I can only imagine how good they would be had they been fresh out the grease. My wings were amazing. Super meaty, well done, and well seasoned. The “Hot” isn’t super hot but has a perfect spicy kick to it that enhances the flavor profile of the wing and seasonings. The wings weren’t too greasy and truly are worth a trip back for another order. LoL!! Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Park Tavern. The bar staff was friendly and all smiles, and the ambiance of the Tavern was very chill and laid back. Perfect spot for a good meal with friends or a laid back date.“

“The staff goes above and beyond! Definitely have to ask for Lauren or DJ. They're the best bartenders by far. Highly recommend.“
