What People Are Saying About Whiskey Park

Featured Review

In Short – Lofted above the Spice Market in Midtown's trendy W Hotel, Gerber-owned Whiskey Park is more LA-exclusive than Atlanta-hip. CIA-looking characters guard velvet ropes while a glam-tastic mirror angles above the bar giving drinkers a chance to scope talent without staring. The clientele is an interesting mix--expense account-holding businessmen mingle among dolled-up girls hoping for a Dallas Austin sighting. The Vault, a hidden VIP room is coated in blackly-appropriate darkness boasting its own private bar. All the decadence gives Atlantans the chance to escape, but bring heavy…

Twisted Party Bachelorette events

by Sweetea41

Don't be fooled by Mr.Dave Francolini's free bachelorette party offer. They set us up at a table all right, then moved us because of some other reservation, then moved us out again. Obviously we were not big enough spenders...which is fine, but don't false advertise!!! Be up front and say if there is a minimum to spend in order to stay at the table YOU reserved for us....

Won't return or ever recommend!

New hang out

by evandertreuce118

Me and my friends checked out Whiskey Park last week and it will be our new hang out crib. The mix of people is great and the atmosphere is cool.

Our New Spot

by atlgirl84

My girlfriends and I went to Whiskey Park last Saturday. We were stopped at the door since our names weren't on the list, but the (hot) manager was walking by and escorted us up the stairs to the bar. Once we got upstairs I appreciated the stiff door policy because the crowd was a nice mix, not to mention beautiful (as was the entire staff). My martini was a bit pricey for Atlanta but it was the BEST BLUEBERRY MARTINI I HAVE EVER HAD!!!!!!! There was no smoking inside which is nice for my friends that don't smoke but the bartender said they would be opening an outdoor patio soon for those craving nicotine (like me). Overall, we had a great time and look forward to going back this weekend!

  • Pros: service, drink selection
  • Cons: expensive parking

The place to be seen

by Tslewis

My girlfriend and I have been wanting to check this place out as we had heard it was a busy spot for the weekends, and atlhough we arrived early evening, there was already people streaming in. We waited a few minutes but once inside the scene was a breath of fresh air. Quality drinks, beautiful people and everything you'd expect from the W. We toured the lobby a bit then looked into the Whiskey Bar. We got in just in time to see P. Diddy and his entourage while everyone else seemed oblivious! The Dj was pretty good but the tables were scarce. We were able to get a couple of seats at a table next to the bar and our waitress was excellent. I asked if there was a place to smoke, but you had to leave in order to do so. We had a great time but cut it a bit short as I really needed a cigarrette. Definately going back, soon!

Hot Thursday Spot!!!!

by elcochino

This town has needed something like this for quite a long time. This is def the new Thursday night spot for the ATL. The DJ was amazing ( I think his name was Baby You) and the scene was hot! It's nice to get a NY/LA feel here in a lounge. The crowd was very, very mixed so no matter what you were looking for it was there and dressed to impress. Service was great and the drinks were strong. What more can you ask for, except maybe closing later than 3am...

  • Pros: The crowd
  • Cons: the valet was expensive
