Dive bar with nautical decor, burgers, and Brunswick stew
"Little Five is the divey epicenter of ATL. Almost every bar in that hood could be classified as a dive, but Euclid Avenue Yacht Club is the quirkiest and one of the oldest. Their door says “membership not required,” but if it was, we’d absolutely pay the fee to belong. The walls are stuffed with nautical-themed knickknacks (a giant shark, a bust of a mermaid) that look like they’ve been on the walls since the bar opened in the ’80s. After a few reliable beers, we’ll need one of their massive and messy burgers to keep our sea legs. Our favorite is the Backyard Burger with a spicy jalapeño ranch slaw oozing out the sides." - juli horsford
"A change of ownership hasn’t destroyed the vibe or the food at this Little Five Points dive bar institution. It’s still a favorite among locals gathering for drinks and bites after work as well as the curious checking out the Little Five Points scene on the weekends. Order a cold beer or the dive bar classic Jack and Coke while slurping Brunswick stew, chowing down on jumbo wings, and munching on tater tots. The people watching here can’t be beat." - Denise K.

"Founded in 1987, the iconic Little Five Points dive bar reopened in 2021 under new ownership and with a bit of a refresh inside, too. But the divey vibe remains the same, as does most of the menu, with dishes like pierogies, burgers and sandwiches, jumbo wings, and Yacht tots smothered in melted cheddar, sour cream, and chili. The kitchen closes at 1 a.m., Tuesday through Saturday." - Eater Staff
"The door of Euclid Avenue Yacht Club says “membership not required,” but if it was, we’d absolutely pay the fee to belong to this neighborhood dive bar staple. The walls are stuffed with nautical-themed knickknacks (a giant shark, a bust of a mermaid) that look like they’ve been on the walls since the bar opened in the ’80s. After a few reliable beers, keep your sea legs with one of their massive and messy burgers. Our favorite is the Backyard Burger with a spicy jalapeño ranch slaw dripping out the sides. Sure, there are plenty of places to get a burger and a brew in L5P, but Yacht Club's small space and nautical theme is our siren song for a wild night." - juli horsford
"Back open in Little Five Points and under new ownership, the iconic dive bar Euclid Avenue Yacht Club includes on its menu Yacht Tots covered with melted cheese, chili, and sour cream. Pair those tater tots with a beer and a shot combo or one of the bar’s extremely strong cocktails, including the Hurricane and Old Fashioned. The people-watching here can’t be beat." - Eater Staff
