City Tap Gastropub and Beer Bar Opens in Midtown, Atlanta - Eater Atlanta

"After throwing an epic grand opening party on Super Bowl Sunday, complete with several NFL legends in attendance, City Tap pub and craft beer bar is now open to the public on Peachtree Street in Midtown. City Tap carries over 60 beers on draft, including several German lagers and Belgian ales, as well as local beers from breweries like Monday Night Brewing, Orpheus Brewing, Wild Heaven Beer, and New Realm Brewing. The 10,000-square-foot-restaurant housed in the former Gordon Biersch includes a ground floor dining room, lounge, and bar, mezzanine seating on the second level, and two patios — a brick, Peachtree-facing patio with a fire pit and a covered patio on the side of the building with windows opening to the double-sided bar. In addition to the wood-fired pizzas and standard pub fare, City Tap’s menu features baked oysters, four preparations of mussels, a rabbit pot pie made with braised rabbit and bacon baked in a puff pastry, and jump lump crab cakes. The restaurant also offers a daily dinner special, Monday through Saturday, like chicken and waffles on Tuesday, suckling pig on Wednesday, and a Thursday night lobster pot pie. Atlanta is the Philadephia-based gastropub’s seventh location, joining City Taps in Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, D.C., Chicago, and Nashville." - Beth McKibben
