"We love when happy hour deals extend through the whole week because some of us (we’re raising our hands) work weekends. Pop into Establishment—a Colony Square bar and restaurant—any day of the week for $9 cocktails and small bites like juicy confit duck tacos for $10." - juli horsford
"The ice cream company, established in 1945, has many locations countrywide. For its first opening in Georgia, Handel’s is set to open on November 14 at Midtown Promenade. The ribbon-cutting will happen at 10 a.m. with the first 100 guests offered free ice cream for a year. The shop will also have a Tiny Doors ATL installation. Flavors include blueberry cobbler, carrot cake, coffee chocolate chip, pistachio, and dozens more." - Henna Bakshi
"Hip energy meets historical preservation at Establishment, a place bursting with Georgia pride. Everything here is made with reclaimed oak, pine, and cherrywood salvaged and gathered across the state’s 15 counties, and the knicknacks on display are antique iron and artifacts that date back as far as 1845. The space features masculine, pioneer-esque furniture, old chandeliers, and patio-style floors laid out in herringbone style, but that doesn’t mean the place isn’t fresh. A patio with a large fire pit, big bar, wine room, and menu full of modern comforts brings things back up to date. Order lemongrass and ginger hummus, deviled eggs with both truffle oil and fried pickles, pretzel bullets with cinnamon brown sugar and creme anglaise, a selection of sliders, and a smoked onion soup to slide into summer 2024 … aided, obviously, with a Bombay Sapphire Sparkling Lemon." - Su-Jit Lin
"A name like The Establishment seems like some type of criminal organization from a John Wick movie—or a very stuffy British boarding school. But this Colony Square bar and restaurant is actually the type of establishment that serves fun cocktails like their refreshing Shirley and the Temple of Doom, which is served with a lollipop garnish. Rustic decor and chandeliers make it easy to mistake this place for a bougie hunting lodge. But outside, their spacious patio provides a scene-y spot to grab drinks and watch the parade of cars on Peachtree and 14th. And the food is solid, so we'd add this stop to our Friday night cocktail crawl when we’re ready for a small bite. We usually opt for the juicy duck fat fried chicken sliders and lemon pepper confit chicken wings." - Juli Horsford
"Head into Establishment and you’ll find nods to the details that built the great state of Georgia, like reclaimed wood from 15 different counties and relics that date back to 1845. You’ll also find a mix of settings from which to sip an Angel’s Envy Manhattan and take it all in: At the large bar, for example, where the classic cabinet rises to the ceiling; to the oversized firepit on the patio; to a tufted banquette beneath an antler chandelier. Pair your Manhattan with menu items like lemongrass and ginger hummus, confit duck tacos, or oxtail ragu on pappardelle." - Su-Jit Lin
