50 Best Bars near Hapeville

“It was our 35th Class Reunion. We had a good size group of 50 or more people. Even with the regular visitors, the staff was quick as they could be and very professional. We appreciate that!! -B.E. Mays High School Class of 1988“

“We had initially gone to a restaurant around the corner, the atmosphere was bad. So we came to Sombreros, and I'm so glad we did. I was glad to see outside seating, nice atmosphere inside, large TVs at the bar, plenty of tables for seating. Just moments after taking our seat in a nice cozy Booth , our server greeted us, took our drink order, and before she walked away we had chips and salsa on the table. We were off to a great start. My chunky guacamole was made to order and specific, to my liking. The food was hot, and flavorful. Sombreros has been added to the list of place to bring friends.“

“Great food, good drinks, ACF $15, lots of fun! Definitely try it!“

“Had lunch here today for the first time. The Valet was awesome, the atmosphere was friendly and laid back. We had Juan as our server and he was spectacular! The array of oysters we tried were fresh and tasty. We’ll be back!“

“Seriously the best hot dog I’ve ever had. I dream about it. Fig jam, pimento cheese and sautéed onions, and the bun is so soft and yummy oh god I’m drooling now“

“We visited The Red Phone Booth on 6/15 while in town for my cousin’s graduation. What no one knew was that I had just placed my mom on hospice and we had lost a cousin the same day—her sister and my mom’s baby sister were with us. Even in the middle of all that pain, we were shown such kindness. Sophia was amazing, and I even played pool with a member who didn’t know I could barely hold a cue. We didn’t look like what we were going through—but that night gave us joy we truly needed. Thank you for a beautiful experience. We’ll be back. ❤️“

“Stopped in for a quick afternoon beer and had a great time. Emma at the bar was amazing — super welcoming and let us try a few drafts before we decided. Their beer selection is strong, with plenty of interesting options to choose from. The outdoor patio is perfect too, really open, sunny, and just a comfortable place to kick back and enjoy a drink. The whole vibe is relaxed but fun, and it’s one of those spots that makes you want to stay longer than planned. Drinks were cold, service was friendly, and the energy was just right. Definitely a go-to if you’re in the area and looking for a good beer and a chill patio experience.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Vibe, Always a Good Time My wife and I have been to Fellaship several times, and it never disappoints. The vibe is grown, professional, and perfect for anyone looking to relax and enjoy a good cigar. Whether it’s a date night or just kicking back with the guys, this spot always hits the mark. Great atmosphere, great service—highly recommend!“

“This little restaurant is divine the food is so good here the staff are so nice xx its right next to senator banus hotel and spa 5☆“

“The local has by far the best wings in all of Atlanta. Dare I say some of the best wings I’ve EVER HAD. The atmosphere is a dive bar, nothing special. The hype is really in the food and they run out of wings all of the time because they are just THAT GOOD. I eat here on a regular and am never ever disappointed. It’s so good that I had to come and give them a review. I dont know what that cook is doing in the back, but keep it up. Yall have a loyal costumer over here!“

“F-1 Arcade at The Interlock delivers a strong overall experience, especially if you’re looking for a lively, family-friendly outing with good energy and entertainment built in.

From a food perspective, it was a mixed bag. The fried crab unfortunately missed the mark—it lacked freshness and didn’t deliver the flavor or texture you’d expect from a standout appetizer. That said, the brisket tacos more than made up for it. They were well-executed, flavorful, and tender, with a solid balance that made them a clear highlight of the menu.

The drinks were another strong point. Well-crafted, refreshing, and consistent, they complemented the atmosphere perfectly and elevated the overall experience.

Service was solid across the board. The staff was attentive, professional, and kept things moving smoothly despite the busy environment, which added to the positive vibe of the visit.

Overall, F-1 Arcade is a great choice for a family outing or casual night out. While not every dish hits, the standout items, quality drinks, and engaging atmosphere make it worth the visit.“

“From Ohio- It is the perfect kinda dive bar with class. Servers were lovely and drinks were perfect ! Will come back!“

“My friend and I just happened upon Sakura as we were exploring the Lee & White space and we are so glad we decided to stop in and chat up the bartender and owner, Nico. Nico guided us through a sake tasting consisting of three unique sakes starting with junmai ginjo, usu nigori, and ending with nigori. Our time with Nico was very fun and informative and we can’t wait to come back with friends and try more varieties!“

“Great experience for their Goodfellas theme. The food and cocktails were on point for each course. The service from the entire staff was phenomenal.

My favorites were the tuna tonnato, lobster tortellini, and tiramisu. My friend enjoyed all her courses as well.

All of the cocktails were amazing and so unique. The standouts were the funny how, cutty water, and no more shines.

We can’t wait to be back for their next theme.“

“It’s small but intimate, almost like a speakeasy. The drinks are incredible and the bartenders know their stuff!“

“We visited Bad Axe Throwing for the US Open and spent a lot of our down time at The Whelan! Staff was friendly, food, drinks and drink selections were amazing! Alec the bartender makes the best Buffalo Trace Manhattans, props bro! The pool table area has great ambiance. If we're ever over that way again, we'll definitely go back! Keep it up!“

“Huge fan! Great place to hang with friends and meet new people!“

“just plain GOOD. contrary to my last visit, my server was very nonchalant anddr this time around.. but the food was still delicious and promptly served🖤“

“Excellent food and good service as well as dining outside atmosphere!“

“BUSTING! This spot was bussin. No long lines, enough room to breath, dance, and order a cocktail. Friendly bartenders! Everyone was vibing, straight men, women and the lgb too, all vibing and respectful! I had a blast. I'm the, dance until they close type and I definitely GOT MY LIFE! The Dj July 5th weekend did his Thang! Surprised it was a white boy! A must !“

“We had a wonderful dining experience, and a big part of that was thanks to our amazing server, Nia. From the moment we were seated, she greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel genuinely welcome. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and positive energy truly elevated our evening. The food was fresh and flavorful and not greasy. Between the outstanding service and the amazing food, this was an experience we will definitely remember.“

“Great ace to find Geogia Grown local products, and Grocery. Best“

“Awesome place to drink and play games. They also have a great trivia night on Sundays and a Smash Brothers Tournament!“

“Love this place on Fridays in particular. This is a good spot to mingle with Black gays (of course other types are here too) outside of Mixx (too pricey to get in). This place is free usually, the customers are friendly and music is popping on Thursdays just ok on Saturday unless you keep telling the dj what to play (the dj on Friday knows what to play). Great place to mingle and party. Drinks could be a little stiffer (I dont drink regularly)“

“The best bar to ever exist in the history of ever. I’ve made more friends and memories in this place than anywhere else. There’s nothing NOT to love about this Atlanta institution, and it will always be the stage I feel most at home on. Long live The Star Bar!!!!“

“The wait for food was long. But they made it up for our wait and the food & drinks were great.“

“Best food in the city hands down. It’s a hidden gem and if you’re a foodie like me you’ll love it. Everything from the wings, splits, chili dogs, tacos on Tuesday and the soul food on Sunday is amazing. There has not been one thing that has come out that kitchen I didn’t love ❤️ ❤️ 😋 on Friday nights from 12am til 4am they do midnight brunch and the fish and shrimp and grits will be the best you’ve ever had. Bee Glad Lounge is definitely a 10 out of 10. The vibes are so chill, the music is always on point, there’s a pool table, axe throwing, slot machines in the game room if that’s your thing. They even do .50 wing Wednesday like they will have you big backing everyday lol You have to try it.“

“The Earl is a classic venue for watching live music. It is small and intimate and has great sound. I have been to several shows there in the past year and the sound has always been amazing. It feels like a club from the 80s but it is not dingy at all.“

“Stumbled across this place during a layover and now I make sure I always have time to stop by for a quick bite or a drink. The service has always been great and I love the chicken quesadilla. Messina always remembers me when I fly in which is a nice feeling in such a busy airport.“

“Food was amazing!!!! Service was great!“

“$13 for this meal is pretty darn good. The older Black man has superb service you can tell he has mastered the craft. I definitely wanna bring friends with me one day :)
FYI - they charge $1 for ranch or extra sauces, i didn’t know until AFTER the bill lol.“

“Great tunes and great venue.“

“This place is great! The selection of beers is impressive and the prices are as well. There are no flights available but you can get 4oz samplers, 4 samplers for $10 which is great. You can spend a whole evening here just trying new flavors with the approx 50 different choices available. There’s some outdoor seating available which is nice since it’s a lot calmer outside. Thank you Scarlett for the good recommendations of both Weiss beer and Belgian ales.“

“Great rooftop bar! Had a great time.“

“All I can say is WOW. What an amazing dining experience. I would be very surprised if Avize doesn’t earn a Michelin star this year. Everything about this restaurant is top tier. Every item we had from the amuse bouche through dessert was a 10/10. You can taste the passion and desire for excellence in each dish. The menu is very creative but every dish is extremely well balanced and a joy to eat. Each dish is absolutely beautiful as well. The ceviche and tartare were the best we’ve had in recent memory. The bread service was insanely good. The black garlic butter so good I could have eaten it without the bread. The Fallow Deer entree was a work of art that tasted better than it looked. The potato rosti is the perfect potato side dish and a must try. The ice cream with caviar is an absolute must try as well. It sounds crazy but it was absolutely fantastic. The service was impeccable, easily the best service we’ve experienced in Atlanta in recent memory. Patrick was a tremendous server and the rest of the team provided the highest caliber service possible. I’d say this was a 100/10 dinner experience and we cannot wait to come back to try the different seasonal menus.“

“Our small gathering on the 6th of December was heavenly. This young lady was sweating and smiling so I had to photo her. The overall experience was great with Service and the Atmosphere was breath taking. The food was exceptional except the desserts were a little dis tasteful, but, I had eaten so much it could be my palate. This is one of the most pleasant experiences that I have been a part of in 2025. Please keep up the momentum. Happy Holidays.“

“Yes interesting menu and great flavors“

“Great tacos and I got the chance to hear some beautiful live acoustic Brazilian music on an impromptu visit reconnecting with my love.
Fun atmosphere where it seems there are a lot of regulars so it was cozy and inviting with art work catching your eye! I really will be back.“

“I really enjoyed saints and council. It’s a beautiful addition to colony square and the restaurant is very beautiful with a calming atmosphere. The food and drinks were amazing and our server King did a phenomenal job and I would definitely recommend this restaurant. 10/10!“

“This is our new favorite date night go-to spot. It’s just SO GOOD in every way! The creative seafood menu is absolutely delicious - you cannot go wrong even if you don’t really know what you’re ordering. Some of our favs have been the Anchovies, Broiled oysters, grilled cheese, spaghettini, fish plate, and pastel de nata. It’s also a very intimate/cozy/warm environment with excellent drinks and wine list. The staff are authentically friendly and extremely knowledgeable. We’ll be back many many times.“
