New Irwin St. Cocktail Bar Will Cater to the ‘Middle-Aged’ Crowd | Eater Atlanta

"Tucked on Irwin Street at the intersection of the Eastside Beltline trail next to Irwin Street Market, Lingering Shade Social Club is a cocktail bar I describe as intentionally low-key—owner and Old Fourth Ward native Lewis Jeffries told Atlanta Magazine last spring that it aims for a very specific niche, the middle-aged crowd. The bright, airy interior features a large wraparound bar and floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto the Beltline, and the dog-friendly patio includes an outdoor fireplace. The menu focuses on classic cocktails, ten local beers on tap, wine, and shared plates and snacks such as deviled eggs, onion dip, and boiled peanuts. It’s open Monday–Friday 4 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. and Saturday–Sunday noon to 12:30 a.m." - Beth McKibben
