    I adore the great Kit F. but sometimes he doesn't know how to have a good time. Or where to do it. And sometimes, when the mood and night are right - that can be at 5P. It's not everyone's scene, and it's not always mine, but I will tell you this: go with someone who knows everyone who works there, and go on a nice night when you can be on the patio and enjoy the night air and said employees are speedy about getting your drinks . . . you'll dig this place, I'm pretty sure. I have a soft spot for divey bars, the older school, the better. I think it goes back to the fact that one of my best friends from growing up is the daughter of one of the original owners of the late Mike and Angelo's, one of the BEST EVER divey bars, home of Swami, a place with a fantabulous patio, etc etc . . . and 5P is a place that has that same . . . vibe . . . in certain ways. Maybe it's just cause I grew up here, who knows, but when the stars align, there's something just freaking cool about the places that have been around forever, have dirt around the edges and don't look bright and shiny in the daylight (or maybe ever if you're honest, but they somehow seem to on that fun Friday or Saturday night, you know?) and the beer's cold, bartenders who know you will frequently spot you a shot (or three), and the people watching is always a hoot. That's one version of my Atlanta, and I love it. Last night was exactly the kind of night at 5P that made me remember why it's so good to know what that feeling is like.

    So much fun

I can't speak to how busy it is during peak hours but 4pm was a great time to visit! Not too busy at all. The service was great, we sat on the patio, our waitress was super attentive and sweet. I had the frozé cocktail, husband had a beer. Good drinks, nothing crazy to note here. Let's talk about the food: The battered mushrooms were amazing! They were big mushrooms, with a tasty batter, and horseradish sauce which was interesting to pair together. I had the slice of pizza, it was huge, I love that you can add toppings, it was fresh and tasty, the crust was DELICIOUS. My husband had the stromboli which comes with a side of marinara sauce, which I had to steal some for my pizza crust, it was such tangy and bright marinara, the Stromboli was loaded with filling and cheese, it was so delicious. Overall this is a cool spot, I would absolutely come back! It's a relaxed vibe, great food, and great service.

That's heavy praise. I came here with an Atlanta native and she knew what to do, what to order, what to drink, and where to sit. If you come here as an out-of-towner, you need to come with a native. They know how to navigate these waters. Being a bar, I needed to start with a drink. No need to be cute. Go with an easy well and keep 'em coming. For me, that meant rum & Coke. No surprises. Decently strong. Moderate ice. Every time. Done. Knowing that a liquid diet of this sort (with work in the morning) was a bad idea, my colleague opined that we needed food. The menu is very large and I didn't know where to start. She did -- and did. We ordered wings and fries. But these weren't your big chain wings and fries. The wings -- because we're in Atlanta -- were (of course) lemon pepper. They were meaty, seasoned (!!!), fried just hard enough to have crisp & snap, and (best of all) were not dried out. Atlanta knows how to do wings. The fries were of the shoestring variety but they were flavored with bbq seasoning. Crazy.Good. I couldn't stop eating. I think we went through three orders.* And that was a good thing because while others were hung over the next morning, I was dewey fresh. *It wasn't just the two of us... but it could have been.

Find the doors on the side of Chido Padres with a picture of two animals on the door windows. (Check pictures) Free parking lot! We got two drinks: Silent Night Margarita and Hung by the Fireside. Our total was $71.60 with tax for 4 drinks. Each drink was about $16. Pros Loved the decor and the drinks were great! Not too much juice and just enough alcohol. Cons $16 a drink can rack up pretty quickly if you're a heavy drinker. Would I Recommend: Yes! Based on the drinks I would definitely recommend this place. Great service and great drinks with free parking! Follow me here on Yelp and @jessreviewss on Tik Tok/Instagram for more.

This year the drinks were blah, the food was mediocre, the vibe was non-existent, and the service was the bare minimal. I have been to other pop-ups this year and would recommend any of them over this include Rreal Taco down the street or Hamp & Harry's or even just picking up the Grinch Happy Meal at McDonald's. Pros: Parking onsite, Reservations (sort of), friendly host (best part of the experience) and server (but absent), nice decorations. Cons: Expensive, boring drinks, overcooked and poorly plated food, not a lively nor festive vibe, poor communication and customer service. Even though this is the only pop-up pre-charging for their event and it was significantly more than a year ago, we liked having a booked time and it was a great experience previously so we booked in early November, but within an hour of booking, we had to adjust the time via OpenTable to a couple hours later. Faster forward to two days before our booking. Confirmations comes in and we notice it is the old time. Called, left messages, send messages through multiple means. Zero response. Called the next day and finally reached the manager who said that the time we wanted wasn't available even though it was the day before so took a later option at 730. Arrive on time but they don't have a table. While waiting they seat us in another area and offer extras since they are late...but they bring chips and salsa 30 mins after 730 when we were supposed to be seat 10-15 mins after we arrive. No waters or anything. Bring complementary margaritas at 810 but only 4 and there are 6 of us. The waitress was dismissive and there was no one else in the bar when we got there. Finally seated at 830 even though they are timed reservations and said they were going to be asking people to wrap within 15 mins of 730. Food was so basic and slapped on the table. Drinks were not festive at all. Ran out of hot chocolate. No festive cups or anything. It was the most mediocre experience I have had. Skip it!
