    If a charcuterie board had a glow-up... it would be the Girl Dinner Tower at Central City Tavern. This tower stacks hand-cut Parmesan fries topped with parsley, and a Caesar salad loaded with freshly grated Parmesan and their house-made vinaigrette. On Thursdays, This Girl Dinner Tower comes with a bottle of wine of your choice at a price for $45 together - pick your fave and make it a whole moment. Downtown Alpharetta's elevated sports-bar vibe with great eats, beer on tap, bold cocktails Lovely portions, great flavors, and the flatbreads here are 10/10. And dark-beer lovers -- the Christmas Ale on tap is a must. It's Thursday -- grab your girls and book that tower moment.

    Good locations well stocked bar! The staff at the bar are totally incompetent. I feel this place should be featured on The Bar Rescue TV show. Not only they are not properly staffed, they are poorly organized! I was going to order food and drinks but getting drinks by sitting at the bar was such a chore - that I gave up on food. Getting beer took 20 minutes so I chucked to one time experience here....

    Central City Tavern is a cute little spot in Downtown Alpharetta that can get quite busy, especially on the weekends. It offers a wide variety of food and drink options for those that are interested in spirits. The interior emulates a "pub style" restaurant with bar seating, tabletops, and booths for both small and large parties. Additionally, they offer an exterior seating area that is an extension of the bar itself and allows the outdoor visitors to feel enticed in the Downtown Lifestyle. There is street parking that is first come first served, and a bit difficult to obtain especially during highly populated times of day. Also, a short distance away is the Downtown Alpharetta parking garage that is just steps away from the Town Hall. I've never been disappointed with the taste/flavor of my food, and have always been provided decent service.

    Sat outside at the "window bar". Our bartender was great even though they were very busy. Drinks were solid, tad expensive but not too crazy. Haven't tried the food yet but will in next visit. Fun place for a drink though.

    Wings with Carolina bbq sauce

    We came for lunch with our dog on a Thursday & were the only people on the patio. It was so quiet & peaceful. I got the wings with Carolina bbq sauce. They were delicious & super messy! I feel like they should have brought out wet wipes for all the messy sauce! My husband got tacos and we got a plain chicken breast for the dog. The tater tots were perfectly cooked, just the right amount of crispness. The waitress was nice and attentive. It's a good casual lunch spot with basic bar food & I'm sure we will be back!

    Teriyaki Chicken Bowl

    Yes!!!! This place rock! Loving the lawn area and the 360 bar! This is definitely a vibe. Lots of TV's and friendly faces, they also have a menu that is not for the weak! I tried the teriyaki bowl and it did not disappoint! The cook was nice enough to send a little extra rice. I definitely would recommend this place.

Not sure if there is an elevator to access Joes. We sat ourselves as there was no hostess. The music was very loud and quite an active place. I didn't mind the music being loud perhaps it brought in the festive evening of it being Nee Year's Eve. Although a bit hard to hear conversation but we managed. I loved all the decorations celebrating Christmas and New Year's Eve. Really done up inside the restaurant. There were lots of tables, very large bar and there is even a back side with a whole other room. Not sure if it's for larger parties or the general public as well. Didn't know about it until I walked through to check the restaurant out. We ordered Margaritas and for the price of $6.50 they were very good, can't complain. I shared a bbq bacon burger with my husband and it was delicious. We were asked how we wanted our meat cooked. The burger was large enough to share along with fries which were very good as well. I suppose they could have been a bit hotter for my liking. My daughter enjoyed their steak plate said it was cooked nicely and very tasty. Our son-in-law opted for chili hot dogs which came with two and fries. He too enjoyed them and didn't finish the two. It seemed like there were many regulars chit chatting with each other. They do have an outside dining area but it wasn't being manned that evening. Also have an outside smoking area accessible through the main dining room. The women's bathrooms were even decorated for the holidays which was fun!! The staff were friendly but we had many different servers which struck us funny. Definitely will return with our kids. Reading the menu items, it seems the food is fresh and made when ordered. Apparently the pizza dough is made fresh daily so I'd like to try it next time. The menu has many options to try.

There was live music outside and the patio areas were packed. Where we sat inside though had a few tables open and we were sat right away at 7pm on a Friday night. No complaints there. This is a great place for families and it's super loud inside and out so bring the kids and let them go nuts. I think the let down for me was the food. They are known for their burgers but for some reason I ordered the "Nashville Hot" chicken sandwich. I LOVE this sandwich and if I see it on the menu I tend to order it. I put the name in quotes because this was NOTHING like a Nashville Hot chicken sandwich. This was a fried chicken sandwich with a squeeze of hot sauce and honey. Absolutely horrible. The breading fell off immediately and it was just gross, greasy and slippery. No flavor, no heat. The second disappointment were the onion rings. Greasy, Soggy, mushy, and again, the breading immediately fell off. They were like eating fried spaghetti. The final letdown was the service. Our server was nice when she greeted us, but we saw her maybe once during our meal. Never filled our drinks and she checked on us once during our meal. The food took 45 minutes to come to our table. I am not sure if she was new. Tonight in general was just a bust. On the bright side, my wife said that her meal was good. Lesson learned. Stick to the burgers and fries.
