"Brake Pad’s “it’s all good” attitude has made it a College Park hangout for years. Massive retractable walls and plenty of huge windows make the bar and grill feel like one giant patio. So even when we’re sitting inside (which isn’t very often), it feels like we’re getting fresh air. The huge patio is an easy place to devour crispy wings, a thick burger, and other decent gastropub snacks with your golden retriever Harry at your feet." - jacinta howard, nina reeder, juli horsford
"Brake Pad’s easy breezy attitude has made it a favorite College Park hangout for years. Massive retractable walls and plenty of huge windows make the bar and grill feel like one giant patio. So even when we’re sitting inside (which isn’t very often), it feels like we’re getting fresh air. The staff is bringing “thank you for being a friend” level niceness, which makes us feel like we’re in no rush at all to eat our crispy wings, above average burger, and other decent gastropub snacks out on the patio. Food Rundown The Staple They do burgers right here. This one’s thick, juicy, and topped with a Thousand Island-like sauce, pickles, and cheese. photo credit: Amy Sinclair Lemon Pepper Wings If you like big wings, these are crispy, peppery, and worth the order. Blackened Shrimp Taco This taco is stuffed with plump shrimp coated in a semi-spicy rub that goes well with the chipotle aioli. Our go-to taco. Seared Ahi Tuna This is decent bite if you're craving something lighter, but it won't leave a lasting impression." - Jacinta Howard
"Massive retractable walls and plenty of huge windows make the Brake Pad Bar & Grill in East Point feel like is one giant patio.

Brake Pad’s easy breezy attitude has made it a favorite neighborhood hangout for years." - jacinta howard
"This tried-and-true College Park tavern shines with its heaping burgers and fries, wings, patty melts, and blackened tilapia. It also fosters a funky, devil-may-care attitude in its community of regular locals, which includes Woodward Academy teachers, millennials, Gen-Z wanderers, and longtime residents." - Eater Staff
