Finished here after a run. They had a nice selection of sours which worked. Only one stout though, maybe they'll have more next time. Enjoyed the brussel sprouts app & pretzel bites. Had a big selection of beer to go and non-alcoholic options too. The bartender was on top of the their game. She knew the menu and handled our group well. read more

The food was fantastic. We had the salmon dip, and the Thursday night burger special. They even had a few gluten free options on tap and gluten free buns. Their fries were some of the best fries I've ever had. Everyone was super nice, the inside is very comfortable but cool. I do recommend making a reservation. read more

Forgive me that I didn't take more pics but it's the experience for me! On Thursday evening, I decided to check out another place at Lee + White to meet my good friend. We do an annual catch up and lately I've been feeling this area. I'd recently gone to Best End Brewing for their holiday bar and the Food Hall is next on my list. Back to Boxcar...we sat at the bar and the bartender was friendly. He offered to make me a special holiday cocktail (they didn't have a special menu) but I went with the Blueberry Mint margarita. So fresh, yummy and hit the spot! Not too sweet or tangy. We were eyeballing salads (trying to eat lighter) - the Boxcar House or Cobb Salad. Instead a fellow patron suggested the brussel sprouts. We were happy to share that since we weren't eating much and love the veggie. Their menu includes salads, burgers, sandwiches, entrees and small bites that all looked amazing coming out of the kitchen. I'll surely be back! The atmosphere is laid back and chill. Families and couples were coming in to be seated and the bar crowd was constantly moving. I will say a 2nd bartender would be cool to handle the flow of traffic because I saw a patron or two not get served or it took a while. The restroom is way in the back, literally outside the restaurant in the adjoining space but clean and has a changing table for babies. Overall - I love the location in the West End. Easily accessible from I-20, parking is still free (we'll see how long), access to the Beltline and lots of other bars and eateries to explore. Also it hasn't been ruined by TikTok or IG so let's keep it quiet but support!! read more

Boxcar - Inside by Ladies Room - New American Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

We had a night out to celebrate a birthday and tried the Boxcar. I was disappointed. The food is high priced and just not that good. We were excited about the diverse menu and vegetarian options but when the food came the quality was just not there. The best entree we got was a burger which was not bad. My yellow jacket chicken sandwich was badly overcooked and tough and we had the falafel burger and salad and the falafel had a weird fowl aftertaste almost like fish oil. It was not pleasant and we left the boxcar and walked down to the food court to get some ice cream because we were still hungry. read more

We stopped at Boxcar while we waited on our VRBO to be ready. It's a cool little place. The space is well lit & really warm and cozy. The prices aren't bad. They're well within reasonable. The service was amazing when we went during the day. Brittney was a new server. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She was engaging and pleasant. The braised beef short rib was absolutely delicious! The bordalaise was full of flavor and paired well. The salad was generous. I loved the vinaigrette. The drink was okay. It did what drinks are supposed to do. Overall, it was a great experience. read more

Consistently good and one of my favorite places in the neighborhood. I can't believe it took me so long to review it. And the menu stays fresh with new specials. I used to miss the burger-forward menu but the burgers are still delicious and the expanded menu is equally tasty. recommended dishes: brussels, any burger, short ribs, wings, chicken sandwich, fries... okay so like everything i have had lololol read more

I've come to Boxcar a few times since they have open and food is always good. The wings are pretty good if you like wings, and the drinks are okay. If you're looking to have a conversation this may not be the place, it's normally busy and the music is pretty loud. If you choose outside seating the noise level is better. The service is always good and staff is friendly! read more

Boxcar is literally a hidden gem! On a rainy Friday night I decided to give them a go and I regret not trying them sooner! Darrell was our server and he was so welcoming with a natural extroverted personality. I got the braised short rib, and it was so good! Their seasoned fries I could literally eat those everyday The restaurant was very clean with trendy decor and there is plenty of parking when you do decide to visit . Boxcar is a great place to visit solo or with a large group of friends. read more

Food was good but service was a little slow. The turkey chili was bland, bang bang shrimp was decent and wings were tasty. Love the building, open and airy. read more

Boxcar and I have an interesting relationship. It's an okay bar - it's chill and relaxed, a bit loud sometimes but not too loud you can't have conversation. The staff has always been friendly and nice and all in all the vibe is where its at. The drinks can be a hit and a miss sometimes as can the food, but it's one of the best places in the area so I keep coming back. I enjoy their biscuits; but I've had them fresh out the oven AND I've had them burned and dry. So I can't really recommend them. The house chips are my favorite thing, followed by the short rib and then their chicken sandwich. It's a great place for the view and if you want to grab a beer and catch up with some friends. Can improve on the food sometimes, but like I said it's a hit and miss occasionally. read more

It's been awhile since I dined here. First time was shortly after they opened and I had a lobster roll and beer, and had a positive experience. This most recent visit was on a Thursday night. Had a bottle of wine that was 50% off total was $14, loaded house made chips $10, and Brussel sprouts $12. My friend and I ate out on the patio that was empty when we arrived a little after 5pm Sparkling rose was perfect for the mild spring temps and you really can't pass up on a 50% special, especially when you can take your drink and walk on the beltline Loaded chips were a very large order, enough for at least four people to share, and were tasty Brussel sprouts looked delicious, however they were very bland   Sean L had a great personality, and provided excellent service   Same day we decided to come back and get an entrée after walking the beltline. Sean was right, this spot does have the best food options on this side of the beltline. We arrived around 7pm and the place was packed, we ended up sitting at a booth inside and had a different waiter. He was okay but not as good as Sean, we had to wait a little to order our food and get our checks. I ordered the hooked on fish-which with a side of fries, the seasonal catch was grouper, and sandwich was $15. The fries were okay, I had to dip them in ranch for me to enjoy them.   Overall it was a good experience that has a menu with something for everyone in your group with indoor and outdoor seating. read more

If I come back for anything it is for the host and my wonderful server, Michael. They were wonderful. The host was down to earth, loved the cute bun, he was just AWESOME!! Michael, our server, was helpful and attentive. The food was pretty good, I had the salmon burger. Others in my group had their food and they enjoyed it. I took pictures. I also enjoyed my Old Fashioned, suggested by Michael. It has an excellent atmosphere and I love the fact it is so close to the greatest colleges, Spelman and Morehouse, WINNING!! I will definitely return if I'm in the area. read more

I really, really wanted to like this place better because it seems like such a fun place with the potential to have great food and drink. Walking in, it seemed busy but wasn't packed. We didn't have a reservation so we put our names down and waited about 25 min outside for them to call us in. Sitting down, our server took forever to greet us, which was fine because her section made no sense to me at all. She had the row of booths against the wall, half the tables on my right and the row of tables I was at. She also seemed to have some large tables behind us against the windows by the host stand. Two other servers had the two remaining tables in the row next to us and the bar/large table area. Very odd and seemingly unfair. This also meant she wasn't very available to us. The thing that got me the most is everyone seems to get a bottle of water to refill their glasses themselves. We didn't. We had to ask for water 3 times and were just brought a new glass each time. Our table got filled up with glasses pretty quickly. It was almost comical. We didn't have silverware, even though we watched the kid working place roll ups on empty tables. Don't think we didn't ask for the silverware, we did, it just never came. The food was good. Nothing to write home about. I liked the ranch dressing for my salad. The cocktails were ok. Honestly, I can't even remember what they taste like right now so they couldn't have been that great. I'd probably try a different place in Lee + White next time. read more

We initially went next door for a comedy show. Eventually decided to ditch the show and came to Boxcar for a dinner date! Environment, itself was amazing! Loved to upbeat area & restaurant itself! They were pretty busy so service was a bit slower than norm. Our server was quick & attentive. Played a quick " rock, paper, scissors " to figure out what drink I should get. Server won, so I got the Manhattan....boy...it was so damn strong...I had to tap out & get a glass of wine. Lol If you're into people watching (like us) with good food, this area, is def the place for that! read more

We visited Boxcar again, following the SpelHouse Tailgate(10/26). Sadly, they were not prepared to have customers on a Saturday night. The restaurant was consistent in customers, but not near packed, but they only had 2 servers and one manager working the floor. Food was very slow to come out. I ordered the blackened fish sandwich and the piece of fish was swallowed by the bun. The manager was so kind to bring me an additional piece of fish to add, in lieu of bringing a whole new plate. Our group ordered a variety of items, including: Burgers, Wings, Fish n Chips, and a Salad. Everyone was satisified. read more

It's gotten better! I've updated my review from 3 stars to 4. It's been a while since I last dined here but my most recent experience has been a pleasant surprise. Some of the items we ordered this time around: kung pao brussel sprouts, Buffalo Mac and Cheese, The GOAT, Fish and Chips. They were actually all really good; my personal favorite was the brussel sprouts. Definitely give it a go if you like brussel sprouts! Service was fine/normal, and ambiance is inviting. I will revisit for sure! read more

Came in this past Sunday for brunch to catch up. We had mimosas and bilinis. I ordered the Bougie Grilled cheese with fruit. It was very tasty. The atmosphere is nice. Friendly greeting at the front door and the waiter was the best. He had done great suggestions and made us laugh. The place is clean. The music was nice and not too loud. It was not that crowded on this day-maybe because of the rain ir because we arrived very close to 11am. read more

Boxcar - Bougie Grilled Cheese and Fruit - New American Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Food: great Ambiance: chill and casual Service: pleasant This is a place you MUST stop by on the Beltline in the West End. It's very casual but definitely has great food. Far beyond the typical bar food experience. Here, you can eat as clean or as indulgent as you want to. I had the harvest delight salad while my friend had the chicken tenders and sweet potato fries. The bbq it came with that was scrumptious. The salad was delicious as well with an attractive presentation but I wish it was a larger portion. If you get the salad please do yourself a favor and get a side as well. The parking is FREE, the music was a lovely soundtrack to a nice environment and our waitress was attentive with good energy. This is the perfect place to step out for a satisfying meal at a chill yet clean place when you don't wanna get dressed up. An ideal spot to refuel your body after trekking along the Beltline. read more

Ordered short ribs for $26 and this is what I got, see pictures. I don't think I've ever had 2 small short rib pieces for under $20 unless it was lunch. The short ribs were also dry. Joy... Did my order get divided in order to make two orders? Part of the order contained chicken tenders, which were also dry. read more

Great service from the bar staff Hostess was not a plus for the establishment. Had no idea there was a lantern parade happening that night. We get there.... No table service unless you reserved ahead, but since there was nothing on the website saying reservations required, we just made plans to meet friends on our way to a music venue on the West end. It wouldn't have been a problem if the hostess had not been so rude. It would have been so easy for her to say, special event tonight, sorry, you can sit at the bar or order takeout and enjoy one of the first come first serve tables. That wasn't what happened... Even after I said this is our first time, I didn't know, what other options are there around here as we look at all the empty tables waiting for people to arrive. And even then, you can't see the parade from in the restaurant, the deck looks at the parking lot, and it is still daylight for another 2 hours.... Everything else was great as we squeezed in at the bar, and food was really good. Bar staff was wonderful. Parking was a mess, probably because of the parade. Found parking away in the neighborhood instead a mile away with a shuttle and no sidewalk because of the fence added around the paid parking lot for valet taking up the regular lot. read more

I'm a fan. I have never had anything here that was not good. I may not have cared for the preparation but I don't think I have ever had anything overcooked, undercooked, etc. They have decent sized menu that should satisfy a variety of cravings. I like the vagabond Sandwich, the turkey sandwich, the wings and the Cobb salad. Hubby likes the burgers, grilled cheese, turkey chili. Most of what we have tried over the years we enjoyed and again- if we didn't it just wasn't to our liking. Service is always good. Busy enough to people watch but not a crazy wait. Indoor and outdoor seating. Spacious. Decent lighting. Private lot parking. Access to walk the Beltline to walk off calories when you finish. What's not to like???! Go! I wish the sandwiches came with a side but it keeps you from eating more than you should I guess. I actually don't like their regular fries and I'm not willing to pay 6.00 for sweet potato fries BUT the last time I did the serving was huge so worth sharing.... I digress. Just go. And bring someone to split the side dishes. read more

I decided to check out Boxcar because it was located near where I was staying while visiting Atlanta. The parking lot was packed and I had to fight for a spot. I was immediately seated upon arrival to the restaurant and the waiter was friendly and attentive. I really did not care for the food. I asked the waiter's opinion on some items that looked good to me and he said they were both "amazing!" Insert eye roll I was very disappointed in the food and the price for what I received. I ordered the side of Brussel sprouts because I was told they were the best thing on the menu by the waiter. I ate three and threw away the rest. Very disappointing. The chicken sandwich with pimento cheese was nothing to write home about either. The fried chicken was soggy and there was barely any pimento cheese. $15 for a soggy chicken sandwich with no side is a little steep in my opinion. The other issue I had was that there were lots of flies. I assume it's because they had a large glass door that was open because the weather was nice. Not a problem. The issue is that it's an open kitchen concept so I know there were flies in the kitchen if they were also at my table. I didn't appreciate being given a business card for a Puppy Boutique with my menu. I get it, you want to promote your business and I wish you well. It rubbed me the wrong way because I'm very against unethical dog breeding. Adopt don't shop! Boxcar was not for me and I will not be returning. read more

This is an awesome place to have in the community! Easily accessible and on the beltline, Boxcar is great for brunch, lunch or dinner especially after a walk or bike ride. They often have good drinks -cocktails, which rotates -and a very creative menu. The desserts are also unique and tasty(however, the gooey chocolate chip cookie is not very soft and probably should be served with ice cream instead of gelato)-Yes, I eat dessert first! However, some of my favorite dishes are the shrimp and grits, chicken sandwich in the hot, Honey biscuit, and fish/chips. Since the drinks rotate, I would recommend coming often and trying them all! My tip for this location is to sit at the bar. At times the location is short in staff and always crowded on the weekends. The bar is the best place for good service and great company. read more

I have been here before and my experience at that time was average food and rude service staff. It's been 4 years and unfortunately we still Have the same attitude at this spot. It just seems like the people working here hate it and I heard then screaming at each other in the hallways in addition to our personal interaction with servers. There's plenty of other spots here. Avoid for your own sanity. read more

Nice spot on the Westside. The ambience is open and airy. Similar to Chattahoochee Food Works. Typical bar food. We were seated right away and Emma our server came over for drink orders. I had an old fashioned, my companion some peach concoction. They were average. We ordered appetizers and entrees. When Emma came with the food, she said there was a mixup in the kitchen and everything came out at same time?? Food again, average. Chili was ok, my fish a little greasy and the fries were lukewarm as though they'd been sitting under a heat lamp. I'd go back for drinks and to people watch on the patio. The other restaurants have similar menus but there's a brewery onsite with tastings and tours which would definitely have me back. read more

It used to be pretty good but at this high a price point, I expect it to be good all the time. There's some sort of Caribbean or Indian spice they decided to put on EVERYTHING...it ruined my side salad and the chicken sandwich. Some things less is more, less is better. It tastes like clove or coriander or something on everything I ate tonight except my fries. No thank you. read more

Always great service and food each time I visit, whether it's with a group or single seating. I love the option of sitting outside on the balcony area. Parking is free and never an issue. It's located directly in front of the Beltline so some days parking may be challenging, but I feel safe in the area despite the crowded parking lot as a I've seen security patrolling. read more

Exceptional. I loved everything about this place and our server Bailey, was outstanding! I'm coming back real soon!

What an awesome venue! This area is filled with old wear houses turned into sheik brewery/drinking spots. There are wine spots, beer spots, and whisky places here... it is really a very cool conglomerate of places to get your drink on. At Boxcar they not only have their in house craft brew beers but they have food selections too. The venue it's self is pretty wide open, with lots of seating, and a bit of a hippie vibe. I was very impressed with the setup and felt comfortable from the second I walked in. I just exudes happiness and friendliness. I don't drink anymore so I can't speak directly to the bear or cocktails but my coworker had an ipa here that he thought was fantastic. The bar area is expansive and they have quite the list of adult beverages to choose from if you are not a beer person. For my meal I ordered the GOAT (the greatest of all Turkey). It was a sandwich that had smoked Turkey, Gruyère cheese, bacon, arugula, and hobo sauce all loaded onto a potato bun. It was "OHHHH MY GODDIE TOOOO HOTTIE!!" One of the best Turkey sandwiches I have ever had! The combination of Turkey and Gruyère with the baco and sauce was outstanding... while the potato bun and arugula gave to a hearty anchor with a crunch. It was beyond just a sandwich for sure! The fries were great... they came out hat, golden in Gomorrah, and perfectly crispy! Our service was fantastic... on the spot, kind and helpful. I really liked this eatery!! It was a very happy find and one I look forward to coming back to again and again. read more

I have not been to Boxcar in a minute! I forgot how much I like this place. The servers are friendly and the manager on-site makes sure you are satisfied before you leave. The food is always good but baby!! That chicken biscuit on the brunch menu was so delicious and a much try! I'll be back to try the short rib gravy biscuit for sure. OAN, I wish they would bring back the Queen of the Rails cocktail. It was a good brunch cocktail. Anyway, checked them out. They have a great patio, awesome sandwiches and burger. If you're too full after your meal, take a walk on the beltline. Yes! It's on the beltline and free parking! read more

Great, fast service & good food! A little pricey on things if you ask me. It's usually a clean spot & the food & service can be a hit or a miss. It's still a good place to checkout if you've never been, especially since there's so much to do in that area. read more

Sunday's DJ! This is definitely the place to be for Sunday's Brunch! My family and I decided to check this place out and I must say the DJ and the drinks were poppin! We did not want to let the DJ go home-lol! We ordered shareable tapas, such as Brussel sprouts and pretzels, which were just ok, and I ordered 2 rounds of Poppin Bottles which came with a bottle of champagne and 2 small juices for making mimosas, all very yummy! The service wasn't great, because the place got very busy, very fast! The environment was loud and fun, and we are sure to return, maybe I will be in the mood for brunch next time. read more
