Painted Park

"From the team behind The Painted Duck, Painted Pickle, and The Painted Pin, this green space sits right off the Beltline in Inman Park. Expect cocktails and a menu filled with sandwiches, chicken fingers, and rice bowls." - juli horsford, jacinta howard

"What about a sleek game day experience? The recently opened Painted Park (from the same team behind Painted Pickle and Painted Duck) in the former Parish space in Inman Park is a loungey spot with multiple TVs to watch any big game. The menu includes game day small plates like loaded nachos, warm crab dip, and even a bowl of chili." - Henna Bakshi

"A new addition to the BeltLine, this “recreational place of assembly” brings residential backyard vibes straight to the heart of Inman Park. A turf-covered fenced yard with its own bar features outdoor TVs, fire pits, and deck chairs arranged in social groupings, allowing your pet to be the literal center of attention. Two covered patios add options. Craft cocktails as elegant as the luxuriously masculine interior make spending a day here with the dog a figurative walk in the literal park." - Su-Jit Lin

"Offers a great sense of place on the BeltLine with a gated yard, outdoor TVs, and a fireplace for cozy indoor moments." - Su-Jit Lin

"The number of “painted” eat and play concepts in Atlanta has ballooned to four (Painted Pickle, Painted Duck, and Painted Pin). This one, just off the Beltline in Inman Park, is the least fun of the group. So just use when you need a meetup spot for a drink with friends or when you're tired of dodging rollerbladers on the trail. Descend into the tunnel that connects Painted Park to the pedestrian paved path. The multi-level space is filled with the sounds of casual chatter mixing with ping pong balls bouncing and skee balls ricocheting off their tiered holes. The food matches the skill level of the amateur players. So it’s best to skip the regrettable turkey reuben and passable chicken tenders and stick to their decent selection of beers and stiff cocktails like an Old Fashioned. Food Rundown Turkey Reuben It’s pretty bland. The only thing you can really taste is sauerkraut, and even that doesn’t have the usual zip. Warm Crab Dip This is the best of the just-OK appetizers. It’s warm, cheesy, and you can actually taste the crab. Chicken Fingers These are a reliable order, and you get a decent portion of fries on the side. Tempura Mushrooms This would be a respectable order, but the fried batter tastes like a funnel cake, which just isn’t the flavor we want with our savory mushrooms. Skip this. Soy Ginger Tofu Nuggets These little cubes are crispy, and that’s about it. We need a map to find where the soy and ginger flavor is hiding. Beer Selection There are just six beers on draft here but plenty of bottles and cans with a nice variety from Georgia breweries (Monday Night, Round Trip, Gate City, etc.). The rest of the offerings are enough to cover the basics with a smattering of IPAs, ciders, sours, and stouts. photo credit: Courtesy of Painted Park photo credit: Courtesy of Painted Park" - Juli Horsford
