Buffalo chicken grilled (remake). Comes with chips $13
Kenge G.

2.5 star review. I've been to Gibney's Pub a few times for a work lunch, there's never a crowd. I like that even though it's in a giant food court, it feels like you're in a separate restaurant. It's down two flights of stairs. Hopefully you walk or take Marta because parking is impossible to find downtown. First visit I dined in with co-workers, the friendly server recommended the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich which did not disappoint. Breaded and fried, it's served with buffalo hot sauce, lettuce, tomato and blue cheese crumbles, with a bag of chips. It was a nice size and pretty tasty! The $13 price point wasn't bad either. A creature of habit, I ordered the same meal to-go and alerted the manager of my onion allergy when I called it in. The food was ready fast but when I got back to my office, I was greeted with the pungent aroma of raw onions. I didn't want to spend my lunch hour making two trips to Gibneys and it was humid outside so my hair wasn't happy either. But the manager remade my meal (which was missing the side of buffalo sauce) and kindly offered to comp the next one. Unfortunately, the comped meal was the worst. I ordered the same sandwich but they forgot the blue cheese, which is the best part! Worse, the extremely thin chicken breast tasted inedible and chewy. The bland fries didn't help. The generous 3 stars is for 2 out of 4 decent sandwiches and the service. I won't return to Gibney's but if you go, I recommend dining in to make sure your order is right!

Visited Atlanta this last weekend. Found this place while walking around the Hub. I was happy to find a non fast food place. Wait staff was great, they were attentive during the lunch hour. Food was good. I wish the chimichurri was drizzled over my steak rolls more than dipping though. Frito pie was tasty!

Pub Burger with fries

Located in downtown Atlanta, Gibney's is a restaurant and pub that is business friendly, tourist friendly, and convention friendly. Within walking distance of many hotels, Gibney's is not a dive nor an upscale establishment, but rather a middle of the road restaurant/bar that is approachable for visitors. Beyond the large bar, there are booths as well as private event areas. The place is fairly well lit and is perfect for a drink and dinner at the same table. We got the pub burger and shepard's pie. Both were good and vey large/filling.

Buffalo Wings
Allie G.

Wow. The weirdest and worst interaction we have ever had with a waitress. It's self seating so we kick a table and very soon after our waitress comes over. We start with water while we look at their drink menu. A short wait later she comes back and we ask for a Cadillac margarita (we wanted to try one before ordering more). This is where it goes bad; she comes back saying they don't have "that" and we say "You don't have the ingredients?" To which she replies "No we don't have.....that. Only what's on the cocktail menu". We couldn't believe it as they have a full bar so my husband went to ask and sure enough they DO make Cadillacs. The bartender Ryan makes one quickly and sends it over. It was in a martini type class with no ice.....interesting take. He also sent over a shot on the house for the misunderstanding. We liked the Cadillac so we ask our waitress for two more and she literally asks us "Do you really need 2 more?". We had literally been there less than 45 minutes and were sober yet it was like she was trying to cut us off already. That was the last straw and we paid out our tab and left. We also ordered their wings Buffalo style with medium heat level and they were so so. The wings I guess are smoked or something because they were smoky and had a BBQ flavor despite having Buffalo sauce. I would not order these again. Ryan was really nice and tried to remedy the situation to get us to stay but with a waitress like that and the disappointing wings it just couldn't be salvaged.

I was in town for a convention and stopped in for lunch and a beer. This spot is lovely. Very large space and good service. I had the honor of meeting the owner while I was exploring the space. Food was standard for a bar, filling and atypical. I just really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Pub Burger and Frito Pie.
Michelle J.

I was excited to try some of the things I saw on Yelp. I guess the menu had changed. Lol. When you are hungry everything looks good. I could not decide. My friend had a burger that looked really good. I had Frito Pie. Everything was good and staff was nice. I want to go back and try the Fish and chips. They do not provide tangible menus so make sure your phone is charged. . .

After a tour of the Atlanta Falcons stadium, I had food on my mind. Searching Yelp "Gibney's Pud" came strongly recommended. Across the street is paid parking, so you almost feel rushed. But I was hungry so I didn't mind. The big red door represents the inside of the restaurant. You sit where you want, so the only seats available were in the back. Our waitress, who almost ruined our visit came over. The entire time, she never brought over our drinks, came to the table, or got our orders right. I was so disappointed in her service. Lastly, she charged us more because she charged us another tables bill. However, the owner was incredible. A Staten Island native, who moved to Georgia to open this bar. He loves the Giants and was glad we traveled for the game. That was awesome. The bartender was incredible as well. She was friendly and spoke to us about football. They made the visit worth it. Also, the food was great. The wings were the best I've had in Atlanta. The burger was juicy and flavorful. The fries didn't even bend they were so crunchy. The meal was perfect. I would come again to support a New York local. Hopefully I can have the bartender as my waitress.

I was in Atlanta for the first time on business. I was sightseeing with a friend and we got thirsty. Yelp helped us find Gibney's. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance is inviting and the staff is friendly. We didn't have any food, but it looked really good. The drinks were served with a good pour and promptly. The place is fun, I'll definitely come back.

Nice little olace near the hotel I am staying in. Food was good and it has the small pub vibe. Service was a little slow but the server was working hard. The food took some time to come out. Overall a goid experience.

BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich Lunch
Paul R.

I wanted to get a nice beer at lunch and what beer place than Gibney's pub. A short walk from most hotels downtown on the first floor of the Peachtree center. It is a nice pub vibe and decorated with tons if signs and a nice bar to sit at. There is a newer golden tee golf here and billiards as well. Not busy during my visit. They had many types of beer on tap but I wanted a black and tan and it was very smooth. Really enjoyed it. I decided on a very un pub like BBQ sandwich. It was actually quite tasty and was a very good quality pulled pork and a not too sweet nor spicy BBQ sauce. The fries were excellent crisp and tasty as well. It also comes with a small portion of Cole slaw as well. The service was friendly and quick and I really enjoyed my lunch here.

I sat at the bar and had a little light banter with the bartender who is a brother looking to be in his late 30's-early 40's. When I asked about two fruity cocktails from the menu, he flat-out said he wasn't going to make them. That alone was off-putting. Trying to move forward, I asked what he specialized in, and he said he'd "come up with something." I agreed--but very clearly stated: no rum, because my body does not react well to it. After watching him make drinks for people who ordered after me, he eventually handed me a cocktail I never even saw him prepare. That already raised a flag. I took a few sips, and sure enough--my stomach immediately started reacting the exact way it does when I've had rum. When I asked what alcohol he used, he said, "I don't even know." That response alone tells you everything you need to know. At that point, I reminded him I specifically said no rum. Instead of taking accountability, he tried to argue and backtrack. Let me be clear--when a customer tells you not to use a specific liquor, you don't ignore it, guess, or "forget." That's basic service and basic respect. This situation completely threw off my evening, as I had plans afterward and ended up feeling sick. To make matters worse, I reached out to management and received no response. That lack of accountability speaks volumes. At the end of the day, this wasn't just a bad drink--it was careless service. This staff does not prioritize customer care, and that's a problem. If you choose to visit, be very direct, pay close attention, and don't assume your requests will be respected.

In true fashion, of course I got a glass of Guinness. It was perfect! Our server was super friendly and very attentive. She even provided some suggestions based on what the others were looking for. Her name was Olivia! Brick Store also has a full food menu too, but we just came for drinks. The food menu is tradiitonal pub type food, so fish and chips, chicken pot pie, etc. It honestly looked really good! I will definitely be back here in the future!!
