That’s means it’s time get in front of a TV, grab a beer and food and watch Trae Young, the Atlanta Hawks and the other NBA teams go to work. But where? Here are the best Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA.
Our beloved Hawks are pretty decent this year, and that means we can show hometown support by repping those vintage ATL Jerseys.
Here are the top Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA playoffs
To find out where the Atlanta sports bars are that have huge TV screens, good drinks, great food, accommodating servers, hip bartenders and more, we culled numerous reviews from our friends at Yelp, Google and TripAdvisor. This is what we came up with.
Here are the best Atlanta sports bars to watch the NBA this season:
STATS Brewpub
300 Marietta St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313, (404) 885-1472
The go-to sports bar in downtown Atlanta, STATS is a short walk from the Omni, CNN Center and College Football Hall of Fame. Inside the brewpub, customers can try their hand at tabletop beer taps and exquisite food with screens all around to watch the NFL playoffs.One Google reviewer says: “This place was incredible! Service was excellent, food was amazing! There were so many delicious looking things on the menu that my waitress had to help me out with a recommendation. I’m glad I listened to her, the BBQ Brisket Burger was out of this world. The fries were really good too. And then she talked me into getting the key lime pie, it was every bit as good as everything else was. I will definitely go back whenever I’m in Atlanta again.”Hooters in downtown Atlanta
209 Peachtree St. NE Atlanta, Ga 30303
Located in the heart of downtown Atlanta, Hooters is especially designed for big sports games. Because of its high-profile location, this downtown Atlanta Hooters regularly gets Atlanta fans as well as that of the opposing teams.El Super Pan at The Battery
El Super Pan at The Battery is the perfect place to enjoy some Cuban-inspired dishes while watching your #1 sports team.Here’s why one Google reviewer says it’s the best sports bar in Atlanta: “The flavor in each dish, AMAZING! The agua tropical is refreshing and they always have a different variety based upon the season. Try them all! The decor is vibrant and the music uplifts your spirit. The staff here are awesome and Chef Hector is very engaging. He usually makes great recommendations in case you find yourself unsure of what to order. This restaurant is def my fav!”Dugan’s Restaurant
Dugan’s has been a reliable go-to spot in Midtown Atlanta about as long as its nearby neighbor, the Clermont Lounge. Lively entertainment, a constant dancefloor and all the chicken wings and beer you could want make this place a great sports bar.Here’s why this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta: “Great dive bar complete with sassy bartender, interesting cast of characters at the bar and great wings. The wings have subtle differences from traditional wing sauces like Anchor Bar sauce. The drinks are poured strong. Their wings are better than their tenders. (They have a tendency to overcook). It’s a great respite for lunch compared to the chaos of Ponce City Market.”Ponce Sports Lounge
3924 E Ponce De Leon Ave Clarkston, GA 30021
Ponce Sports Lounge has hookah, live music and pool tables, but the chef-prepared food is the best in all of Clarkston. Although it is not a restaurant, you can order food up until 3 a.m. on the weekends.
Here’s what one Google reviewer says: “Was our first time at this venue and it was a GREAT experience. the server was pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu. The Chef bought out our entrees and was very personable

Moreso a place to socialize, eat and watch games. Music was good . You can dance but Its not a club. Hoped this helped. Oh and 10 for women 20 for me. I heard they have good wings.”Popular party spot with sports, DJs & dancing, with drink specials & a full menu for dining.The Tavern
3560 Camp Creek Pkwy, Atlanta, GA 30344, (404) 349-9285The Tavern, known as Camp Creek’s OTHER sports bar, has events almost every weekday night, including karaoke, drink specials and more.One Google reviewer says: “The lemon pepper and hot mixed wings are AMAZING. I also enjoy their karaoke nights which are live and many patrons participate so it makes me feel okay because I can’t sing to save my life. I’d definitely recommend checking them out on Wednesday night and enjoy the atmosphere.”Hudson Grille
942 Peachtree St NE, Atlanta, GA 30309, (404) 892-0892Hudson Grille has three locations in Atlanta, one downtown, one in Midtown and the other one in Brookhaven. Huge TV screens at every turn and good food make this one of the best Atlanta sports bars to enjoy the game.One Google reviewer says: “Food is always great along with service and overall atmosphere. I personally come here frequently during football season because it is home to Raven Nation South, located in the upstairs area of the bar. I love the sports atmosphere that Hudson Grill provides.”Yard House
261 19th St NW #1100, Atlanta, GA (404) 815-8990Thanks to an awesome Midtown location (there’s another one at The Battery next to SunTrust Park) and above-average beverage program, Yard House at Atlantic Station has a devoted following among sports fans.

Topgolf
1600 Ellsworth Industrial Blvd NW, Atlanta, GA 30318, (404) 475-4000Topgolf caters not to the golf fan so much, but the sports fan. With flat-screen TVs at every station, you can swing clubs or sit back and enjoy your game when you want it. Inside at the bar, you can see multiple screens from several vantage points while you eat and drink.
Here’s why one Google reviewer says this is one of the best sports bars in Atlanta:: “This is a really fun place for all age groups. If golf is not your thing, they also offer table tennis or ping pong upstairs and pool tables downstairs. The putting area is spacious. Of course it is outdoors, but they offer large heat lamps directly over the seating area. There are two levels to the seating area. The first is a high bar with chairs. The second is a u-shaped outdoor sofa with a center table. All food and drink orders can be placed from your bay. For each game, each player gets 20 chances to “put the ball in the hole”. You can take all 20 swings in a row or rotate players as you’d like. If you aren’t interested in playing any of the game options, you can also dine in or have a round at the bar. Enjoy!”

Tyler Perry Studios: Everything You Need To Know
Perry wasn’t born in Atlanta, but he’s made it his home for more than 20 years. In this article, we’ll look at some things you probably didn’t know about Tyler Perry Studios.
Let’s get started.
Unlike other movie lots, Tyler Perry Studios, like the name implies, made up of several studios.
1. How Big Is Tyler Perry Studios?
Tyler Perry Studios sits on 330 acres just outside the borders of East Point, Georgia. It is one of the largest movie production facilities in America.

3. What Are The Origins Of Tyler Perry Studios?
The plot of land, more than 300 acres, traces its earliest beginnings to a U.S. Army barracks that would soon be home for the Confederate Army. It would quickly return to the Union during the Civil War.
In 1885, Fort McPherson would claim the space over 500 acres. The Army base was named after Union Major General James McPherson, who was killed in battle during the Civil War.
When Georgia seceded in 1861, the Confederate government took charge of Fort McPherson. These lasted until the Battle of Atlanta, which saw operations at the base moved elsewhere.
But the site is not so much about the past as it is about its future. Perry has transformed the grounds into an oasis of manicured natural beauty.
4. How Much Did Tyler Perry Pay For Fort MacPherson?
Perry paid $30 million for more than 300 acres of Fort McPherson. He would then go on to invest more than $250 million of his fortune into the land.
When the price of the sale was published in the newspaper, there was quite a bit of criticism.
5. Where Was Tyler Perry’s First Atlanta Movie Studio?
Perry originally had a studio in Midtown Atlanta, where the site of Krog Street Market now sits.
After that in 2008, he bought a studio lot in southwest Atlanta close to Greenbriar Mall. That studio was 200,000 square feet and a perennial tourist attraction.
6. What Was The First Movie Filmed At Tyler Perry Studios?
Photo credit: Marvel Studios You know Atlanta has all types of movies filming here. Marvel’s “Black Panther” was actually the first movie to be filmed on the lot.
Perry has said in interviews how he thought it was appropriate that somehow a movie about a black superhero would be the first one filmed at his studio.

The Armand de Brignac crashed against each soundstage as fireworks lit up the sky. Generations of blood, sweat and tears, success, excellence and brilliance. It makes me so proud, so full, I could not stop crying. Thank you my Virgo brother for so much love and passion put into every detail. My prayer today is that you will take it all in. You inspire me to dream even bigger.”
