The oldest operating tavern in Atlanta, Atkins Park sits in a bustling row of shops and restaurants. Once settled amid the darkly stained woodwork of either the bar or Creole-influenced bistro, however, wayfarers at Atkins Park feel well removed from the remaining city. The staff is accommodating, though the clientele on weekends can veer towards pushy yuppies.

The burly Brewhouse remains the best place to catch the World Cup and a pint of the world’s top brews. This pub attracts a pierced, tattooed and sedate, suburbanised clientele equally. Plus they are a top locale to satisfy that fried food craving that accompanies competitive sports.

Tucked off to the side in the Marriott Marquis Hotel, family-friendly Champion’s Sports Bar suits watching the clock tick down – whether watching a game or merely killing time. Champion’s has nailed, lacquered and plastered sports memorabilia to every surface. You can get plastered, too, on over 60 sports themed cocktails, bottled beers or draughts.

In the base of the Peachtree Centre Mall (connected to three of downtown’s largest hotels), Charlie and Barney’s is home for conventioneers and hospitality industry regulars. Surrounded with bric-a-brac, barflies between business engage video golf, darts, pool, interactive trivia, 10 televisions, chatty bartenders, a classic rock, R&B jukebox and comfort foods including a recommended chili.
