13 Essential Atlanta Bars for Cocktails
"Peter Chvala, chef Nolan Wynn, and Faielle Stocco worked together for years in Ford Fry restaurants in Atlanta, while Katie McDonald was a manager at Wrecking Bar Brewpub in Little Five Points. The longtime friends all live in and around East Atlanta Village (EAV) and appreciate the neighborhood’s quirky vibe and penchant for late nights. Their restaurant, Banshee, has become a dining destination for EAV residents and visitors to the neighborhood seeking dishes with nods to the seasons and cleverly crafted cocktails. Try perennial favorites such as the Stately Hag made with tequila, Strega, Cocchi Americano, lemon, and thyme, and the Humo y Flores made with mezcal, tequila, grapefruit bitters, orange blossom water, lime, and grapefruit. The wine list is great, too." - Beth McKibben, Henna Bakshi
