The Scene – Found in the heart of the hipster haven that is East Atlanta, this inviting little bar lacks the catty scene of its neighbors. As a result, it attracts an older crowd, making it more neighborhood pub than pick-up joint. Local art, warm colors, a friendly staff and a well-stocked jukebox invite the diverse crowd to sample a decent selection of beer, with up to 10 draught selections, and a diverse bar-food menu. – – The Draw – The crowd comes for a casual drink but doesn't mind staying for the food. In addition to bar-food standards like burgers and wings,…

My favorite spot.

by sgtchar

I would say the flatiron is my "go to place" it's very much a neighborhood bar. My husband and I eat there a lot. I go there by myself some times too. I never feel uncomfortable because like other reviewer have said it's your neighbor's. Non pretentious wait staff and service. Come as you are and enjoy a beer and a burger. I think their burger's are better than the Earl's and the hummus plate is a must try.

  • Pros: Great food and drinks
  • Cons: Never a bad experience here.

East Atlanta Village Favorite

The food is good, the atmosphere is lively and the beer has plenty of choices. This hangout is a must for a complete EAV experience. If you are headed to EA just for the Flatiron then I should mention the parking which is scarce to say the least. Once you find safe haven for your car then try to get the most E. Atlanta you can. Do some shopping, get a drink one place and then have lunch or dinner at the Flatiron. The atmosphere is very rich here as this is one of the oldest buildings in East Atlanta.

best bar in atlanta! hands-down.

by sassyajc

the flatiron is absolutely my "cheers." i have a drink waiting for me before i can sit down at the bar. the waitstaff knows my name and my friends' names. it's the most comfy place i can think of in the world. the food is great, the drinks are potent, the staff is amazing, and you'll never walk in and not find a friend there. i cannot say enough great things about this place, my "second home."

  • Pros: best staff, best drinks, best atmosphere, best location!
  • Cons: this place has never done me wrong.
