97 Estoria

"This chill dive bar in Cabbagetown offers plenty of seating both inside and outside on the tree-covered deck and patio beside the building. Beer, wine, cocktails, Fernet shots, and classic bar food have all made 97 Estoria a popular neighborhood hangout for years now." - Denise K. James, Eater Staff

"Need a place to hang for 5 hours? Dive in! 97 Estoria is the local dive bar/music venue located directly across from the Krog Tunnel. Are you a Mastodon fan!? (the band, not the extinct prehistoric wooly creature)- you might just bump into their lead singer/guitarist Brent Hinds here. This goes without saying but, don’t bother ordering Pepsi, they only serve Coke here." - 3 Owl Media

"There might not be anything better than a pimento cheese and fried green tomato sandwich on a summer’s evening in the A paired with a cold beer or a cocktail from this dive-y bar in the heart of Cabbagetown." - Beth McKibben

"This eastside address has grown into a familial gathering spot for movie, music, and sports lovers to hover. The random leather sofas and mix-match wood tables only add to the apartment-like charm. And just like your first place, 97 Estoria is all about welcoming unannounced friends over for a good time. With comfy digs, a host of brews on tap, and one of the best bar cheeseburgers we’ve had in years, it’s easy to see how things can get really lively really quickly. Throw in a couple of TVs showing a soccer match, and now you’re talking about a real party. But unlike your old studio with the phyllo-thin walls, here you won’t have to worry about nagging neighbors knocking on your door for cheering too loudly." - DeMarco Williams

"Several Atlanta restaurants began requiring masks again for employees and patrons, including Cabbagetown bar 97 Estoria." - Beth McKibben
