Great little divey place for Cincinnati-style chili and sandwiches &…read more beer choices are good. Locals know it well -it's been serving the neighborhoods around Normaltown for decades-and it looks the part., Food: 5 stars for their Cincinnati-style chili on French fries , by the bowl, or with hotdogs. Sandwiches are always good size and tasty. We like their Reuben and Rachel as well as the various BLT's. Food is a strong point. Service : Staff are very pleasant and the service is quick. Facility: 2- star (Sorry-but it's true) Old interior, but they have attempted to keep it serviceable. The bathrooms are a good reason to use hand sanitizer instead of washing your hands, IMHO. Lots of various beer cans for decor. Location: Very conveniently located on main thoroughfare just outside Athens in Normaltown between the hardware store and the Mexican restaurant. A few parking spaces on the street, more in the rear.

The beer is from all over the country, so there's a good variety there anywhere from sweet to better to light! They have areas for you to sit in a bar as well. They have some games and a dartboard (bring your own darts). You just walk up to the front. Tell him what you want, you can get a flight but it's not any cheaper or more expensive it's just 4 ounce glasses of beer that you pay for individually, and then you go grab a seat. It's a cute spot to start the night with to grab a couple of beers. It's also nice place to hang out with friends. Some of the games they have include cards in Uno and a couple of board games. overall it's a good time. It feels a little barren in there, they need a little more decoration or some liveliness. The building/room looks a little old, it could add to its charm though! Overall I like the place and hopefully they have a wide rotation of beers as well. We will definitely be coming back and it's located in a nice area of downtown Lawrenceville. You do have to find street parking and it's located next to a lot of restaurants as well.

Even though there was only 1 bartender manning the bar, she did a great job getting our orders out. She was feisty too. A friendly ball busting style. The food was great. We had a variety of items. Chopped Char Salad - excellent 15 oz ribeye - ordered medium rare - slightly overcooked, a solid medium but very tasty Asparagus and Brussels Sprouts - very tasty It was pricey but excellent overall.

We were greeted by our dinning coordinator when we sat down. She was great gave us recommendations. We ordered our drinks and they came in a reasonable time. We were offered bread service which was exceptional. All house made and delicious with their butters and sauce. We ordered the charcuterie board with bone marrow and the lobster special. The charcuterie had many cheeses, fruit and a delicious decadent bone marrow. It was delicious with their bread. The lobster we shared with the 5 of us, that's all you needed. It is very rich and comes with a rich sauce and caviar. Needed to box up the board, since it was large. Order the scallops, salmon, shrimp cocktail and salad, the filet and the ribeye. Ordered the corn, lobster Mac and the mushrooms. The corn was the favorite, roasted, charred, and in a great sauce. The lobster Mac was over the top with lobster and took home 95% that we shared with my daughter and still fed 4 people as a side. Warning- sides are large! My scallops were delicious and cooked perfectly but I thought it came with purple potatoes but I got sweet potatoes. Wish the dining coordinator would have said something. The steaks were perfect except the med looked more raw. The steaks were delicious and very large even for their side. We took most of our mains except the steaks and the way they packaged them included garnish and even ice for the shrimp cocktail. Thanks Nicole our dining coordinator! It was my birthday and they brought out the most delicious cake. Housemade, white chocolate with raspberry with whipped cream. Excellent. I have to say we will be back. It's definitely worth the price. I am a chef and have owned a restaurant so I know all the effort and work it goes into creating a wonderful experience and this is it. I tend to be tough on any Michelin star restaurants I have visited because they are Michelin star. This is truly excellent, food, drink, ambiance and service. Nice job chef Jeremy Green.

Their Tom Collins was so good it inspired me to start making it in my own home, though so far I haven't reached their level of taste. Only critique with Old Pal is their clientele. The establishment attracts a rather odd crowd of millennials who routinely make jokes from 2012 and cheer for Atlanta United. Male facial hair is disproportionately represented among these folk as well. Regardless, this is not a viable reason to demote an establishment's star rating so 5 star it is! Go Old Pal!

There were out of the devil egg spread for the large charcuterie board but they replaced it with bacon jam and pimento cheese and I was very happy about that offer to make it right. I got the executive wine flight and Italian panini. It was a decent amount of seating but a full house and the prices are very reasonable.

But oh man, we have at least 4 meals off of this plate of nachos, so they can have my $24 anytime. This is one of the best plates of nachos I have ever had, and I eat mexican a lot if you look at my reviews. I think they make their chips as they are thicker than most, but have an amazing actual flavor, and the toppings are ABUNDANT. This was carne asada and it was absolutely delish. The bartender greeted us when we walked in, showed us where to order and to pick a seat inside or on the cute little patio. They brought the food out within 10 minutes and we chowed. Others around us had margarita buckets and pitchers of beer, so plenty of options. Someone was raving about a pickle margarita...next trip that is on my list. Super clean, very friendly, great food, and it is labeled vegetarian and gluten free on the menu for those of us who need that info. I will most definitely be back.
