The Best Bars in Athens | Eater Atlanta

"Tucked into a sleek, low-lit space on Tracy Street, Nighthawks offers a stylish snapshot of Americana that separates it from the typical college bar scene. The drinks are anything but ordinary, thanks to a playful menu designed by local sommelier and co-owner Krista Slater of Slater’s Steakhouse. Look for signatures like the smoky-meets-herbal Burn the Witch with mezcal and Strega, or the Hillbilly Hymn, a bourbon-forward sipper with pawpaw liqueur and banana syrup. Even the bites are fun, with a menu of self-described “grandpa snacks” (a Brasstown beef bologna sandwich and tinned fish) and local restaurant pop-ups from the likes of Flat Circle Pizza." - Sarah Bisacca
