"If you're looking to show off your backspin serve, Painted Pickle in Atlanta is for you. The spot is huge and features first-come, first-serve pickleball courts, some bar games, and indoor/outdoor lounge spaces. If drinking is your preferred sport though, grab a seat at the bar and sip a frozen rum-spiked Arnold Palmer while the breeze drifts in from the raised garage doors. The food is a lot better than what you’d find on an average upscale pub menu. Think fundido waffle fries and bacon cheeseburger pickle poppers." - anne cruz
