There are sanitizing stations inside and the patio may or may not be open. Also check to see if they’re requiring you wear to wear a mask upon entry. What I really like about this particular place they offer several different kinds of Patties from chuck and brisket mixed beef ,to chickpea ,to onion and carrot , and even the impossible Burger. Pick your patty and create your burger. They also seem to use Yukon gold potatoes because I’ve only had fries that taste like this for one other restaurant. They are so crisp and good!”

Final Word
Burgers are a happy place for many foodies in Atlanta and beyond. But where do you go when you want a burger in the city?
At this point, Atlanta’s burger scene should get its own star on Hollywood. What other Southeastern city can compete?
Only in Atlanta can the casual observer find specialty food shops, off-the-beaten-path restaurants, farmers’ markets and farm stands all at an affordable price point.
But Atlanta also has trendy restaurants, pop-ups and time-tested landmarks that continue to draw big crowds.
Metro Atlanta’s food and drink scene continues to grow with no stops on the horizon. Ready to try something new?

The Red Lobster restaurant chain has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the company announced on Sunday, May 19, 2024.
The restaurant intends to use the bankruptcy not to close down for good, but rather, to drive operational improvements, simplify the business through a reduction in locations, and pursue a sale of substantially all of its assets as a going concern, according to a press release.
The filing, done with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, essentially means that Red Lobster will sell its business to an entity formed and controlled by its existing term lenders.
Will Reb Lobster Restaurants Close Down?
Red Lobster’s restaurants will remain open and operating as usual during the Chapter 11 process. The Company has been working with vendors to ensure that operations are unaffected and has received a $100 million debtor-in-possession (“DIP”) financing commitment from its existing lenders.
With that said, some Red Lobsters have shuttered around Atlanta as of late. Read our list of Red Lobster closures.
“This restructuring is the best path forward for Red Lobster. It allows us to address several financial and operational challenges and emerge stronger and re-focused on our growth,” Jonathan Tibus, the Company’s CEO, said in a statement. “The support we’ve received from our lenders and vendors will help ensure that we can complete the sale process quickly and efficiently while remaining focused on our employees and guests.”

Soccer is a global sport and Atlanta is a global city, so it only makes sense that one of Major League Soccer’s most iconic clubs join forces with one of the hottest travel destinations in the world: Belize.

Author and Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey CEO Fawn Weaver is coming to Atlanta as part of her Love & Whiskey: Unfiltered book tour.
The tour will share historical accounts from her book Love & Whiskey: The Remarkable True Story of Jack Daniel, His Master Distiller Nearest Green, and the Improbable Rise of Uncle Nearest (on sale: June 18).
The book tour is set to stop in Atlanta on Friday, June 21. Keep reading to find the time and place.
Those who attend can look forward to an extraordinary evening of whiskey exploration and open, unfiltered discussion, featuring Weaver and Victoria Eady Butler, four-time Master Blender of the Year.
As a whiskey drinker myself, I am looking forward to this event!
What’s On Tap At the Whiskey & Love Tour
Attendees will enjoy exclusive tastings of the finest Uncle Nearest single barrels and master blends, meticulously selected by Victoria for this tour. Immerse yourself in a night of authentic, unrestricted conversation with Fawn Weaver as she delves into the legacy of Nearest Green, the captivating journey of building the Uncle Nearest brand, the vision for the future of America’s first spirits empire to be built by a woman or person of color, and her personal story from homeless teen to triumph.
“This tour redefines the book event experience. I am known for my transparency; I embrace spontaneity and genuine interactions,” Fawn said in a press release. “Here, the audience leads—every question is unfiltered, straight from our guests. In between discussions, guests will have the ability to savor exquisite whiskeys under the guidance of one of the industry’s most respected Master Blenders.”
By the book:
What Is Love & Whiskey About?
Love & Whiskey chronicles Weaver’s odyssey, beginning with her discovery of Nearest Green through a piece in The New York Times. Green, a formerly enslaved Black man and skilled whiskey maker, served as the world’s first known African American master distiller and the original master distiller for Jack Daniel.
Weaver embarked on a quest, assembling a team of over 30 historians, archivists, genealogists, and researchers to unearth the true story of Nearest Green. She interviewed and spent time with over 100 of Nearest Green’s descendants, as well as numerous descendants of Jack Daniel, amassing thousands of documents from more than six states.
This monumental research effort led to the creation of Uncle Nearest Premium Whiskey, which has grown into a billion-dollar enterprise and stands as the top-selling Black-founded and owned spirit brand of all time.
Reminiscent of The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Love & Whiskey masterfully intertwines the lives of Nearest Green, Jack Daniel, and their descendants from 1849 to the present, alongside Weaver’s own trailblazing path to establish the first spirit conglomerate founded by a woman or person of color.
Record-Shattering Launch: Upon its pre-order announcement, Love & Whiskey soared to No. 17 in the Top 100 books on Amazon, America’s largest book retailer. The book impressively held the No. 1 spot in seven out of its eight categories throughout the week, including Women’s Memoirs, U.S. State and Local History, Culinary Biographies & Memoirs, and Black & African American Biographies. It was also heralded as the No. 1 “Mover & Shaker” on Amazon. Additionally, the earliest pre-orders will receive an extra special touch—a copy signed by Fawn Weaver during her record-setting Guinness World Record attempt for the Longest Marathon Book Signing, where she autographed 25,005 books in 24 hours and 35 minutes.
Love & Whiskey: Unfiltered tour dates
The first of 20 Love & Whiskey: Unfiltered tour dates and locations will be:
- Washington, DC: Tuesday, June 18, 2024, at the National Press Club
- Tampa, FL: Wednesday, June 19, 2024, at the Hard Rock Hotel (SOLD OUT)

- Portland, OR: Monday, July 15, 2024, at Portland Center Stage
Expect Sellouts: Tickets for all events can be purchased here. The Tampa event is already sold out, with others expected to sell out quickly. Stay tuned for additional dates.
A Tour Unlike Any Other: “The enthusiasm for this book is unlike almost any other we’ve seen in recent history, and this book tour will be one of the largest tours of its kind,” said Melcher Media CEO and founder Charlie Melcher. “Attendees will get access to the powerhouse that is Fawn Weaver, and the exquisite craftswoman that is Victoria Butler. Fawn’s unwavering ambition and dedication to telling an incredibly important part of American history will be on full display with the Love & Whiskey: Unfiltered tour.”
