Very, very cool place. Great service. Great jazz music on the night I went. And very cool interior design, One of the coolest looking nightlife spots I’ve seen in Atlanta. I highly recommend.

first time here ! I got to visit both levels of the establishment; Kk was so kind and inviting ! I will be returning !
This is the upstairs bar at Bon Ton. Seems to be owned/managed by the same people, but separate menu. The stairs to get up to it are right inside the door for Bon Ton. There is a small parking lot.
5/5 for the atmosphere and the live music on Mardi Gras 2025. The musicians were super talented and it was such a fun, intimate atmosphere for a jazz band. I live for all the red decor and lighting.
No food served while I was there (apparently they stop serving upstairs at 9:30). Drinks were good (specialty cocktails, beer, wine, seltzers, and at least one non-alcoholic beer). Service was okay. Maybe an hour before close the bartender left, would’ve been nice if they’d announced last call or something.
This place has potential. The Jazz music is awesome. The seating is disgusting shag carpet that I wouldn't let my dog lay on.
Very poor design. Service could be better.
Great jazz talent and great vibes. Cool little spot in midtown, friendly folks and service. Comfy seating. Will be back. Can't speak to any food options but the bartender poured my whiskey/coke pretty generously.

This upstairs 70's haven is a part of Bon Ton (downstairs) and is a super chill addition to the restaurant. The service is fantastic and the bartender had great recommendations!

Horrible experience at this location. If you are a tourist take the advice from a traveler DO NOT at all cost walk into this place. Staff is rude as can be. Profanity and sarcasm is part of the menu.

This place is a hidden gem. The bartender, Kayla, was amazing and she prepared the most beautiful and sensational drink for me! I love the atmosphere in this place.

I really, really wanted to like The Waiting Room. The restaurant below, Bon Ton, is one of my favorites and I’m rarely disappointed so I was stoked to hear that a cocktail lounge was opening upstairs. I want to believe that they’re just figuring out what works but I had a very disappointing first impression. One thing I love about Bon Ton are the cocktails, but The Waiting Room has a separate menu that didn’t quite deliver the same experience that I was expecting. The bar was small and was overwhelmed easily by the number of orders rolling in all at once, so our drinks took a long time to come. I’m also usually a fan of live music, but in such a small space it made conversing with friends at the table nearly impossible (also be aware that there is an entertainment fee that will be included with your bill). The servers seemed overwhelmed and frazzled and only came by our table a few times during our visit. I think there are a lot of really fun elements here, but the execution is a bit lacking.
