If you're looking for cute cocktails and a speakeasy ambience, this is the place!!! YOUR COCKTAIL QUEEN is back and I'm her to let you know that this is a hotspot. Located on Edgewood, which is a convenient strip of bars and places to party. This is your more laid back and relaxed spot! You never have to worry about that overly crowded bar here. I've been here twice so far and have had a great time both times and it's always decorated beautifully. Actually got some good footage for my brother music video once, which was really cool. Lastly, it can be easy pasted up when looking for the bar because it located on the second level of it building and You do have to order your drinks at the bar but you can sit anywhere you'd like. 10/10 recommend read more

Can't wait to go back...went on a late weeknight. Located on the belt line. Unfortunately, I couldn't tell you were. It's a thrilling place, decor starts outside with an overhang of flowers, and inside - let's just say it lives up to its name. I highly recommend to go at night. Interesting names of drinks, one did it for me. It's a real chill spot. Layout is small, but again the decor will zombify you. Go have fun! read more

I highly enjoyed this bar. From the drinks to the decor to the movie playing, it was all 10 out of 10. Our bartender was patient and helpful explaining all the drinks to us. I cannot recall the drinks we actually ordered so I unfortunately cannot give a detailed review on those but if you are looking for a chill place to get drinks I recommend. The casket doorway also allows for some great photo ops. read more

Mambo Zombi is such a cute bar! Went there with friends and it was a bit quieter inside than I imagined, but still had a good time. Tried three drinks (can't remember the names, but they were tasty!). Downstairs they had Selena night going on, that was fun! Everyone was dancing and having a great time. I'd consider coming back for another event or to pre-game with friends. It's a cool vibe and the potential for some fun nights out. read more

Hard to find. It is a speakeasy. Once u find the address, go upstairs and enter the coffin. Menu is minimal but I ordered Ensalada de Pollo, the blandest chicken salad ever. Right before I started complaining, my friend asked for Tajin and saved the day. Eat before you come and just vibe with the drinks. read more

My favorite bar. Awesome delicious and creative cocktails. Incredible ambiance and nice bartenders ! Spring drinks I love are pink dahlia, leviathan , peanut milk. Never leave us mambo zombi !! read more

I had one of the best drinks I've had in years right here at Mambo Zambi. I ordered from her menu throwing caution to the wind and fate brought home a winner. Here's a hidden gem that keeps on giving. Downstairs in the patio garden they have pop-up restaurants that offer delectable dishes from all over the world. The bartenders was knowledgeable, kind, multitasking mixologist. I didn't think she fit into the theme at first but her sleeve & tattooed knuckles told their own tales and with that Mambo Zombi became my real life Cheers read more

So I don't know if I would call it a speakeasy necessarily, I don't know if I would not either, but it was a decent little vibe. It's a very small situation so you come in and you have some seating area and a bar but it feels like you can't really fit a A lot of people at one time. Regardless of the fact I still think it's worth at least checking out if you are in the Edgewood area. Now just so you know if you don't know this place exists you would walk right past it. It's on top of the Georgia beer garden so you have to walk up some steps to get to it. But at the same time, there are a couple of signs that would help you with that. There's a lot of rum and a lot of tequila so if that's what you're into then this is probably the place you should investigate. I tried the margarita, it was actually pretty decent. Not the best margarita, but it had a little interesting spin to it. The bartenders was nice and explained the ins and outs of the menu so I thought that was good. It's a place you would go to if you had a small group of people, it depends on what night you go but if you had maybe six to eight people that would probably be enough. There is seating but not a whole lot but if you want a smaller intimate kind of setting then this would probably be a good move. I'll bet that this really went off on Cinco de Mayo because of all the skeleton decorations! I was glad I tried it. I wouldn't run back to it, but if it was something I was going to happen throughout the night, I'd be okay with it as well. I would definitely give another shot I had a good experience there. It didn't knock me on my feet but I was pleased. read more

Loved this spot. Came with a pretty big group and managed to eventually find seating. Bartender was hilarious and liked him a lot. Saw a review call it a tikki bar and agree. The entrance is a coffin. Loved the vibes I ordered the Zombie cocktail and it was great! Only found this zombie drink a few places and I was glad that they lived up to their name. Had a great time and definitely will be back! read more

Great tiki bar! I didn't recognize most of the ingredients in the cocktails, but the bartenders were helpful in choosing a delicious drink. I tried of few of my friends cocktails and everything was well balanced and delicious. read more

Great spot and a hidden gem in the chaos of Edgewood! Love the ambience, the lighting, and the eclectic decor / art. read more

Mambo Zombi has one of the coolest ambiances of any bar in Atlanta, which is fitting for a bar that's right down the street from Church. That being said, they have to revamp their cocktail menu. I really wanted to like it there, but my wife and I really didn't care for their cocktails. They have to figure out some better signature concoctions. So, if you're coming for the atmosphere and for the Instagram opportunities, I'd say stick to beer and/or your favorite cocktail of choice. I'd also warn that that it's pretty small inside, so I wouldn't advise going with a big group. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit here! I didn't stay long due to the water main break in Atlanta but my short time was great. The bartender Keisha was very professional and knowledgeable about mezcal and the options they have behind the bar. She suggested that I try their mezcal flight and loved it! She picked out 3 different mezcals all ranging from mild to more dry. She was informative and I learned a lot from her. The decor is colorful and eclectic which is right up my alley. I love that it is secluded and private. I will def be back! read more

Mambo Zombi is SUCH a fun vibe, whether you're here for one drink after dinner, just starting your night, or making it your last stop! We came in at about 10pm on a Saturday and there was a short wait to get in because the place was packed. It's pretty small inside -- four little seating areas for 4-6 people each, four (maybe five?) small high tables, and then a large bar area. Despite being busy, it was easy to get orders in at the bar without pushing through crowds of people. The bartenders were friendly, fun, and QUICK with service which was awesome. I ordered the Monkey Screwed which came out on fire (from 151 rum in a lime) -- unexpected, but always fun! I also tried the Rum Ting Ting which had Jamaican rum + mango and curry leaf shrub. This was my fav drink of the night! I also tried my friend's Singapore Sling which was great and the Monkey See (no longer on the menu but available upon request) which was a little too boozy for my taste but well-balanced especially if you're into amaro. Wish they had tepache on the menu when I visited, but will be keeping my eyes out for it! Overall, a high-energy tiki bar that I would certainly recommend! read more

Super fun bar that just opened above GA beer garden. It looks like a fun tikiesq fiesta themed bar. They have a great cocktail list and the coolest new interior of a bar I've seen in a while. Definitely check it out read more

Located off Edgewood Ave, a popular bar street in the Old Fourth Ward neighborhood of Atlanta, and quietly stacked above the Georgia Beer Garden, this cozy bar is a hidden local gem! We visited on a very hot Saturday evening and had a great experience! Its entrance is a little less obvious from the street. To get there, walk into the small courtyard shared with Georgia Beer Garden and take the exterior stairs to the second floor. Upon arrival, you'll pass through an intricately detailed door and coffin-themed portal into a small but laid-back bar that feels somewhere between a tiki bar, speakeasy, and a Dia de Los Muertos celebration. The menu also notes inspiration from across South American, Afro-Caribbean, and West Indian cultures as well. When we arrived, patrons were lounging under the glow of neon lights; a chill playlist was streaming across a muted anime playing in the background; there was a faint smell of incense, and in the distance, the bartender was lighting a cocktail on fire. This place definitely has a vibe--and we loved it. It is a smaller space, probably fits around 50 patrons, so it's likely best for small groups or would be great for a date night! We had just been outside in the heat for a few hours, so we got a round of frozen pina coladas ($10) to cool off which were delicious! My friends also got the Singapore Sling and the boiled peanuts to snack on--we enjoyed everything ordered! The staff were really great, friendly and professional, and the menu (while small-ish) had a good range of drink options (cocktails, beers, ciders, non-alcoholic drinks) at reasonable prices. We were only there briefly but already have plans to come back soon to try more of their menu. I highly recommend checking out this bar if you're in the area or looking for a cool, intimate, more chill bar to enjoy some high-quality cocktails. read more

Cool vibe and fun drinks! Friends took me here for my birthday and thought the spooky theme would be right up my alley. It was! My inner goth girl loved it, especially the Krampus walking around. Nice chill spot for people who don't like loud music or dance clubs. Lots of seating. It was a Thursday so it wasn't too crowded but I'd be interested to see what it's like on a weekend. read more

A perfect place to grab an upscale cocktail with friends. There is a relatively large selection of creative hand crafted cocktails, and the atmosphere is the perfect mixture of places to lounge and things to look at. read more

I love a themed venue and an artisan cocktail so when I heard about this spot, I just couldn't wait to go. Ambiance: My sister and I were told this spot is small and to arrive early on a Saturday night. We decided to arrive shortly after opening. We got there around 6:40 p.m. and walked right up the stairs running along the side of Beer Garden to access the place. At 6:40 p.m., it was already moderately full. Everything in there is themed. From the menu being named the "Book of Life," to the skull chandeliers and the entryway that looks like an old school tufted coffin. There's plants and cozy seating areas and a row of barstools that line the bar. On the bar there's a basket of fresh fruits used to make various zest and garnishments for the drinks. The bar is stocked with liquors that aren't your standard run of the mill b.s. or well known celebrity backed spirits...real cocktail enthusiast know what's up! There's candles lit everywhere so you feel your entering a séance. It's quite impressive. It is even smaller than it appears online. I'd estimate only 30 people can be in there at once. Service: the bar was staffed by one bartender/the owner and while she very friendly and pleasant, because these cocktails are art, it took awhile to churn out drinks. Which brings me to my favorite part.... The Cocktails: We aren't talking about drinks made by just pouring liquor and mixers into a shaker, We're talking cocktails that are set on fire, have multiple housemade fresh mixers and zest, have real $20 a jar maraschino cherries skewered on bamboo drink picks, golden skull drink picks, and drinks that ignite when sprinkled with cinnamon or sugar as if you're witnessing witchcraft. They are beautiful and very delicious, served in glasses unique to the drink, and not overly sweet so you get to really taste the essence of the drink. We got the Singapore sling, rum ting ting, and something else that was garnished with a hibiscus flower. Each cocktail was between $11-$15 which is not bad considering the level of artistry and quality of these cocktails...and yes I keep saying cocktails because these cocktails are saddity broads that don't deserve to be called drinks lol It's a great "first stop" on a night of bar hopping. Edgewood parking is always the worst and it's all pretty sketchy so the earlier you come the better. If you come early, catch some street parking near by and use the park mobile app to make sure you don't get booted. Summary: unique themed bar that makes cocktails that are definitely art. Reasonably priced cocktails for the quality. Very small venue so arrive early, parking that is sketchy and probably not easy to come by because it's Edgewood. Bring friends who won't embarrass you because they think Ciroc is high end vodka. Be prepared to wait on your drink...it's not a vodka and tonic. read more

Had fun for sure. Place is super cool with awesome decor and drinks are crafted and very good. However, my issue was that the bouncer will lure you into the bar downstairs with the excuse that upstairs is at full capacity with the promise to hold your spot with a waiting time of 15-20 mins. After 45 mins hanging in the bar downstairs went and ask and people behind us were also complaining about waiting for an hour. While the entire line in front of us was going up without wait. Poor organization for sure. read more

Vibes: immaculate, decor was so cute, they serve drinks that they light on FIRE, drinks are strong and flavorful, bathroom doll decor is a little creepy but cool nonetheless. Bartender with the short red hair and the button up: rude, denied us water, blamed us for other people's trash/left behind cups, said we couldn't have anymore cups because we took too many??? We never had cups?? We never got water so how could we have taken all the plastic cups?? Anyways we would recommend IF that bartender isn't working there that night read more

Impressssssive! The Vive and the aura is amazing day of the dead, creepy, traditional, Mexican dolls it's really great inside.

Great different atmosphere, cool drinks. Lacks space but cool for a quick-drink bar. I liked the bartenders.

This is an unbelievably great little speakeasy, disguised as a really funky, authentic bar. The music is always quiet enough where you can talk, and this is the best place to make and further any relationships, and probably the most impressive single spot ever for a romantic date. I can't say enough about the people there and Tatum is one of the most beautiful people I've ever met! read more

The most interesting bar in Atlanta. Great drinks. Great decor. Nothing else in Metro Atlanta is quite like it.
