    We decided to stop here while doing a little Christmas bar hop. We had an amazing time. The DJ was fabulous. The vibe was great. I loved all the Christmas decor. The drinks were good. I let the bartender choose my drink, after I told her what types of drinks I like . And it was perfect. Good vibe, decent price!

    This was my first time checking out the Holiday Bar at The Interlock, and it was a solid addition to my holiday bar hop! The vibe was fun and packed, with people hanging out by the fire outside and crowding inside. Heads up--get there early because it fills up fast, and seating is super limited. The DJ was awesome and kept the party going, but it was pretty cold with the doors open, so definitely bring a jacket. The bar was crazy busy, so know what you want and jump in when you can. I didn't stay as long as I wanted (too chilly!), but it's a cool spot for holiday fun if you're in West Midtown.

    I enjoy holiday bar. It has an interesting set up being that it's pretty much an outdoor bar that is connected to other bars in the area. It is nicely decorated, and it has a good vibe. The crowd varies and there was one time I went where it wasn't quite my type of crowd, but usually I do enjoy the environment. I've only been here for a drinks, and the drinks were good. Overall, no complaints.

    The drinks were really good. A little disappointed the came in small plastic cups instead of actual glasses. The decor was so nice. It was fun to see all the different decorations they put up. You can tell that they put a lot of time and effort into decorating for the holidays. My only complaint is they didn't have very "holiday" drinks. They seem to have the same menu year round. Will definitely be back.

    No food here. The service and the Christmas theme were great. So happy it was closed in and heated for the colder weather. Cute little bar, I would go back.

    I love this place and Christmas pop up too! Even better- their Christmas cocktails look great and you can still order a normal drink if you want. It feels super cozy and the service is always great. Parking is tough but that's everywhere in the area.

    I visited this bar during the middle of the week to go out for drinks with the family. This is an outdoor bar that has a variety of drinks and even some coffee options. We stopped by for the live music and they were so good! There is a good amount of seating and also some TVs for your enjoyment. This is a great weekend spot to go to because it becomes more of a party scene at the interlock. Be warned though, weekend nights are extremely busy so plan accordingly.

    Came very early in the day on a Wednesday, so not a lot of people just yet. I did a day of visiting pop up Christmas themed bars and holiday bar has the festive vibe complete with holiday drink selections. Service was excellent and the bartender gave us options and answered all our questions about the holiday drink selections. The outside area has a cozy bench with a fire pit that was lit up while we were there so we did go sit out there for a little bit to enjoy the fire. It was a chilly fall day but the combo of the chill with the fire pit and boozy hot chocolate in hand were perfection. Parking is in a deck near by for a fee and there are a lot of places around it to eat as it is located in the interlock building in midtown.

    I think there's a A taco Tuesday event, very lively on a Tuesday night, kinda like a lounge scene. Cool, casual vibes but still can be something cute bc it's very aesthetically pleasing. There's 3 drinks on the 10pm-close (12am) lobos repasado + Red Bull, lobos + passionfruit + ranch water, + lobos espresso martini ( these are full price, my friend and I ordered drinks (3) the total was $58, however the tacos were $4 beef, chicken, (hmmm can't quite remember the 3rd) and you order them at velvet taco...which I didn't know about until after the fact bc I ordered off of velvet tacos reg menu :( Anyway the tables were very dirty and there was trash everywhere, idk maybe I would've enjoyed more if the table was clean I mean there was spilled drinks everywhere. And maybe a happy hour drink menu for taco tues? Idk I could have missed the drinks by the time I got there so I will give it another try

    Wanted to catch some of the college football games, but this spot is more for socializing. I had a margarita but it was just okay. Service was okay and made sure everyone's need was taken care of

    This place is so cute with a simple and reliable menu. It's a nice pregame spot before a night on the town, too. I've been satisfied with the drinks and atmosphere during the daytime hours as well.

    Coffee side

    Perfect for meeting with friends if you have a mix of personality alcohol on one side, coffee on the other, then tacos next door. My favorite drink I have gotten from here was the Pink GNT, but I do like that they have a twist on a lot of traditional drinks. Parking here is going to be in the shared parking lot of all the businesses there - which is a pay to park so keep that in mind if you're driving. As for location, this place is fully covered from the top, but is open on all sides, with a focus on coffee for one and alcohol on the slight more inclosed side. I happened upon it after a game at puttshack which was great because I was in need of some coffee. Personally when I go here, I usually order from the bar and end up taking my drinks over to grab tacos, having one friend be in charge of ordering from each of the establishments to beat waiting for lines for both. I have had both coffee and cocktails from here and I think they do it really well here. Everyone has their preferred drinks, so each person can make the experience their own on that side of things but for the vibes here it is mostly a walk up bar. As for service in here, the bartends are not here for conversations, they are trying to bust drinks out quickly but not necessarily welcoming. I don't see this as my friendly neighborhood bar, but I definitely have been more than once and I will probably be going soon again.

    This is cute small bar with outdoor and indoor seating. Went there in a Tuesday night and the inside seats were all taken so we sat outside and with the fireplace we were comfortable. I got the hot cocktail cider and it was delicious great drink to be outside with. The bartender was very nice and friendly. This is a cool chill spot.

    What is the parking situation at this location?

    This is connected to the Interlock Parking garage, where you can pay to park. There's also some street parking a little further down Howell Mill going towards Star Metals, if you don't mind the short walk

    What a cool place. Discovered it incidentally while in downtown Atlanta. Upscale with a dress code…read morethankfully. The entrance code can be obtained from their website or local hotel concierges. Dial the number on the antique phone and the door magically opens. The staff super friendly and helpful. The bartenders are the best, clearly passionate about their work. I highly encourage you to try one or several of their signature cocktails. I sampled the Left Bank Martini and Vesper. As expected they are fully stocked with Pappy Bourbon, hard to find Amaro Noni. Ask a bartender about the ice block. The place is spacious unlike other speakeasys I've been to. Lots of niche areas with couch reservations, pool table available. No time for a cigar but that is on my list when I return. Food available from their upstairs sister restaurant.

    I stopped in for a quick drink before heading to my next destination, and my experience was not…read moreonly disappointing--it was unacceptable. 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.

Rather than just finding out, he went ahead and made it and brought it out with the group's drinks. When I saw how good it looked, I decided to order one too. The presentation of the drink was very nice and it had a good creamy flavor to it. This drink was a nice way to wind down the evening. As someone from TX, I did think the drinks were a bit on the pricey side but it's not surprising with it being the ritz. I liked that the bar had a fun yet casual ambiance and there were plenty of people around. We did ask what time last call was and were told midnight so we didn't hurry to order a second drink. Unfortunately, when we ordered another at 10:40... we were told they had closed which was frustrating.

They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!
