HOBNOB Neighborhood Tavern
Ansley Park, Midtown

Lauded by the AJC, Thrillist and many more, HOBNOB is quickly becoming a Midtown mainstay. This casually-chic tavern features pub fare with an urban comfort flare. (A must-try is the Lamb Burger topped with feta crumbles! Juicy and delicious yet still feels like a lighter meal - it's perfect for sweltering evenings.) In addition to succulent entrées, you'll find creative bar snacks to complement the expansive drinks list. Cleverly, the menu recommends which of the numerous beers will pair best with each plate.

Deliciously affordable, HOBNOB has added their special spin to Southern favorites. The Peach margarita and aptly named Southern Spring Rolls (filled with slow-roasted pork and cider braised collards) in a cherry-mustard marmalade sauce are so tasty you may go weak in the knees. For brunch, dine on funky favorites such as the Candied Pecan Pancakes and Low Country Bubble & Squeak (cabbage, Andouille sausage, shrimp and sides).

HOBNOB is surely one of the most accommodating spots in the city. Both the jovial dining room and shaded patio are open for lunch at 11a.m. and serve dinner until 11p.m. Rumor has it the bar is open even later. Ah, but what of the times when you just need a full-bodied breakfast? Stop by on Sundays from 10a.m. ‘til 4p.m. and enjoy a tasty take on traditional Brunch dishes. Need a place to catch the next World Cup game? Cheer your team onto global victory on the patio and enjoy a $10 Pizza and Pint special. Check the events calendar and plan your pre-game party!

Insider tip: Need some dinner party dessert inspiration? This neighborhood newcomer hit the spot with their alcoholic milkshakes. Instead of serving up a sweet as warm and sticky as the summer heat, take a cue from HOBNOB. Make a batch of the season's favorite treat, with a little adult twist.
