Hattie B’s has opened its doors in West Midtown. The eatery, known for its Nashville-style hot chicken, has some new menu items.
Since Hattie B’s Moreland Avenue location went so well in 2018, the company has been planning its second location since 2019, but the pandemic slowed things down. Father-and-son owners Nick Bishop Sr. and NIck Jr. have expanded in Alabama, Tennessee and out west as well. The West Midtown location opened on August 3, 2022.
You can expect the spicy chicken tenders, Dirty Bird fries, desserts and sliders that you love from Hattie B’s on the menu here.
What makes this location unique is that it features a plant-based hot chicken sandwich on a brioche bun, which is a major departure from other eateries that feature a chicken sandwich. The West Midtown Hattie B’s also has fried pickles, which its other locations do not have.
Also new at Hattie B’s West Midtown location? A robust cocktail program with draft cocktails, boozy icees, canned tallboys, and draft beers from Georgia and Nashville. #ChooseATL #HattieBAtlanta
Hattie B’s newest location in West Midtown is located at 711 10th Street Northwest, Atlanta, GA. Here’s a map to help you find it.
