    So this is the perfect dimly lid old school intimate vibe that you may be looking for on a night out. It's in the Granada hotel, but you may have to go around to the side of the building if you don't have a key of some sort. Which is fine! It's really not descript but there is a doorway on the side of the street which is at the side of the hotel itself, you can go up a couple of steps and there you are. Given a fact of where you are, you have to figure out parking as it comes along, but that's okay because if you're in midtown you know you're in midtown LOL. But there are Ample parking structures around. So this is a establishment that gives off old school speakeasy vibes. It has music playing in the background so you can get a little vibe. The last time I went they had Frankie Beverly playing as soon as I walked in the door so I knew I was going to be all right! It's very dimly lit and there are a lot of candles around so don't expect a live and loud establishment. Unless there's music playing. And by that I mean live music. On Thursday they typically have live music. As of right now, they have Thursday jazz and the saxophone player toggles from upstairs to downstairs with his music. But they're looking into getting a more solidified schedule again. So just stay tuned and I'm assuming you would have to check out their Instagram or the website to see when the live music events are going to occur. We sat at the bar just for a quick drink and to catch some nice chill vibes. I got an old fashioned, pretty well crafted old fashioned with Uncle nearest, no complaints. The staff was very friendly and very talkative, not overly talkative but they were very engaging which is what you want from a bartender. Overall, I can see this being a spot that I would visit frequently. It's not a sports bar so don't expect tons of TVs, but if you just want to kick back and have a conversation with a couple of friends, this will be a really good spot to enjoy.

    If you're in Atlanta and love an elevated speakeasy vibe, May Peel is a must-visit. Tucked beneath Hotel Granada, this place feels like a well-kept secret--intimate, moody, and effortlessly cool. From the moment you walk in, you're transported. The lighting is low, the music is just right, and the attention to detail in the décor makes it feel like you stepped into another time. It's sultry without being pretentious. Now let's talk drinks--because wow. The cocktail menu is creative without being overwhelming, and everything we tried was balanced, bold, and beautifully presented. I ordered the Wimbledon and Cloud Eleven both of which were very tasty! The service was equally impressive. Welcoming, knowledgeable, and never overbearing. It's the kind of place where you can have a deep conversation, celebrate something special, or just escape the city for a few hours. Whether you're local or visiting, May Peel is worth seeking out.

    This speakeasy is a cute vibe. Just in time for V-Day they had a special V-Day cocktail menu and the night I went there happened to be a live saxophonist playing old school RnB and neo soul hits. I ordered a Love Potion and an Espresso Martini to drink. The Love Potion had good flavors and presentation, but it wasn't boozy enough for me. The Espresso Martini however, was delicious and very on point. I wouldn't hesitate to order it again. Suki also provided very good service which I always appreciate. Overall, a good experience and I would definitely come back to try some more cocktails and the sandos.

    Super cute speakeasy in the lower level of the Granada Hotel. Very cozy, dark and sexy space. The mix of music was amazing and set the vibe. The drinks were delicious! Our bartender was super sweet. I was visiting Atlanta for the week and popped in with my girlfriend and friend for drinks. We were impressed the moment we walked in. The vibe was there. They have spoken word and live jazz nights as well. A hidden gem and definitely a spot to impress your date. Highly recommend!

    This review is for the late night vibe with jazz and the skillful bartender and handcrafted drink, I did not try the food... That is next! I walked here from my apartements and the vibe was super chill with the jazz music playing. I walked to the front of The Granada Hotel and was made aware that if you are not a guest at the hotel then they have their own entrance that is up the steps on the side street of the hotel. We were greeted warmly, the lights were dim and the candles were lit. Very smooth vibe. Apparently they have live music some days, I think the gentle man said Thursday nights. I can definitely see it being a cozy calm evening/night cap situation. It is too close and nice for me to say that I will not be back :). See you guys later!

    Went here for ladies night tonight and it was such a vibe. I highly recommend. They had a sax player and he was really good. The place is super cute and low key. The food "snacks" were good. If your looking for a full meal you won't get that here because they are mostly cocktails. But the snacks and drinks are really good! The service was excellent! Our server was Ahji and he was on point. He was friendly and took really good care of us! This cocktail lounge is located at a hotel as well just fyi

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.

    Blind Pig Parlour is such a fun spot -- equal parts creative cocktails and unforgettable vibes…read more The drinks here are top-notch, crafted with attention to detail and packed with flavor. We tried a few cocktails and some shots, and everything was smooth, balanced, and honestly way too easy to sip. You can tell they take pride in their bar program. On top of that, the cowboy theme makes the whole experience even better. From the décor to the music, the space feels playful and immersive without being over the top -- like stepping into a Western saloon but with a modern, classy twist. Perfect for a night out with friends when you want great drinks and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile.
