East Point Corner Tavern

Was in the area and grabbed a burger here. Great, friendly wait staff and the burger was delicious! I recommend!

Nice atmosphere if you like it a little smoky and rough around the edges. Have only been once but the food was awesome (vegetarian) and server was super attentive and polite. Can’t say anything bad about this place.

The vegetables on the hummus plate was long beyond expire. The hummus was very uninteresting and cruel. Two stars for pool tables the fried tilapia sandwich.

The food here is bad. The lettuce is limp. It is actually spinach. This place is not hygienic.

Cool atmosphere and good bar food. I’ve noticed the portions getting smaller over the years. Also, Greek dressing should be available for their Greek salad. Never understood that one. But whatever. Still good.

Positive: quality food, great service (our server Kristy was awesome)
Negative: people allowed to smoke and left smelling like an ashtray

Negative: people allowed to smoke inside and left smelling like an ashtray from head to toe

One of the few places we could find to grab a bite late night on Saturday… sat on the outside deck since they had karaōke inside… had chips w/​salsa and queso — really good. Also had a black & blue burger, it was very good as well. Add the fact that they had Tropicalia on draft and good service, I’d go back in a heartbeat.

I came here on Thursday night with friends while visiting Atlanta for weekend, and we loved it! The food was fantastic, especially the honey chipotle wings. Nikki was our server and she was the best — she was so friendly and made our visit so much fun. Highly recommended for a fun, casual night out!

This use to be my favorite bar. But the food has gone down hill. Plus the aggressive smoking right vibe is a serious drag. I come out of there reaking of stale cigarettes. There are plenty of TV’s. but they’re all pretty small.

Good food. Out-​of-​the-​way location. Relatively quiet (except on karaōke night). Friendly staff. Can’t ask for much more than that from a local watering hole.

PLEASE READ!!! My boyfriend and I had just moved into the neighborhood around 9÷1÷2015 and it was late, needed a bite to eat. Although it was a bit smoky for my taste, the atmosphere was very chill. We enjoyed some great food, in particular the pimento mac n cheese.
The only reason I gave 2 stars is due to the following: after paying our tab we were approached by who appeared be the Bar Manager. She berated us about not tipping. Now I am not sure what tipping etiquette is at this place but I was taught you place the tip either in the tab folder, a condiment (salt pepper shaker ketchup et cetera) or directly to the waiter. My boyfriend and I were not ready to leave so we hadnt handed it directly to our waitress (who was awesome btw).
The «bar manager» (I am assuming) spoke to us aggressively asking if we didnt tip because the service wasnt good. We assured her it was and that we had all intentions of tipping but we werent ready to go and may order something else. She appeared to be inebriated, which is fine because its a bar.
However, I do not appreciate being chastised like a child. This was our first time at Corner Tavern and it was very hurtful to be pretty much yelled at because we may not have followed «tip protocal». We will visit again, however if we are approached in this manner ever again there will be ramifications.

Met a friend for a late night drink and snack. It seemed to be your typical dive/​local bar with a diverse crowd where everyone was in general high spirits. This night there was poker going on, a few locals at the bar and some pool games happening. A lot going on for a small place, but it worked. The service was a little slow, but I think they were short handed due to the time at night. The server herself did make up for it with her attitude. She was friendly, funny, engaging and attentive. The beer was cold and cheap, while the food was hot and tasty. Bar food done right for sure! I would like to come back and see what this place is like during prime hours, I am sure it would be a cool place to hang with a group while grabbing some beers and munching on some tots. My only gripe is the smoke. It is a little overwhelming when you walk in, but mellows out shortly after… but, still… its noticeable and for someone who doesn’t smoke.
Overall, I’m a fan and would definitely return.

Nice place to hang out and shoot pool. Enjoyed myself, went late so not very crowded. Good for a meet and grret or in my case after work drink with friends.

Good food and bar with TVs and pool tables. Friendly staff.

My neighborhood go to bar setting. Good food and drink specials. Highly recommend the club (best in the city) on the roof top patio!

2.5 STARS: I’ve been here numerous times, often grabbing a meal or just a drink. It’s a very laid-​back, relaxed and chill scene. The chicken wings are blue-​ribbon; especially the teriyaki flavor. I like to stick with what I know because a few times I tried to experiment and order something that sounded fancy on the menu-​only to be dissapointed by bland or uncelebrated tasting food.
There are themed nights just like with all the «corner tavern» locations. I have only visited on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday evening. From my last reference, Sunday is karaōke night. The atmosphere is comprised of low-​key adults just looking to enjoy a night out with friends. There are t.v. screens on the current sports game atop pool tables lined through an adjacent area.
I don’t drink beer but the craft selection is pretty good for beer snobs reading this. I tried the ‘Sugardaddy’ drink which is vodka, butterscotch schnapps and something else mixed in. It was an experience to try… LOL. The crowd appears 30’s and up, mixed and cheery. Service could be a little bit better. It lacks enough to make me not eat here more often. Sometimes the wait staff just seems disconnected, lost or distracted from their work duties.
P. S. Heavy smoking inside, there are no designated areas so you may leave with your clothes smelling like an ashtray on a crowded night.
P. S.S. Parking is tricky, so make sure you plan ahead and try to get a safe spot or just hop/​park MARTA (it’s about 75 feet from the train station)

Great for Saturday or Sunday brunch. Bottomless mimosas and delicious brunch. Great for large groups.

Found this place while waiting for family to arrive at ATL & their flight was delayed. They ended up being delayed enough that we had time to order food.
I got a Caesar salad with blackened chicken & it was delicious! He had a burger (I forget which one) but definitely enjoyed it. The tater tots were great too.
The restaurant/​bar is divey & fun, the drink menu is creative & the food was great. I just wish the service would’ve been a little quicker. It took so long to get our first round of drinks, I was curious if our order had been forgotten. The food took a while too, upon it being delivered, we immediately ordered more drinks. Unfortunately they didn’t come by the time we were done eating, it was time to go & the bartender hadn’t even started making them yet. I understand the kitchen can be slower when not busy bc you have to get things up & running, just not sure why the server let the bartender take so long to make the drinks. One round would’ve easily been 3 rounds had we received prompt service!
Will definitely stop in again next time I have an airport run to make though!

This place would get five stars if it weren’t for the smoking policy. Nothing against smokers but the ventilation system there leaves you smelling like an ashtray. Otherwise the food is awesome and drinks are liberal !

I found this place when searching for restaurants near the airport, since we were grabbing a quick meal with my dad on a layover. I definitely judged a book by its cover here — it was more of a bar that serves food than a restaurant and I complained to my husband that it smelled like smoke as we sat down. But the food turned out to be decent — I had some delicious tacos which were the special of the day, and he got a truffle burger with house made potato chips. My dad got a club sandwich, which turned out to be more of a hoagie/​sub, so that was a little disappointing, and our buffalo wing appetizers were also a little weak, but as long as you’re not setting your expectations too high this place is just fine for a quick bite to eat.

Would like to give 2.5 stars.
I LOVE a good dive, but in a nearly empty bar it took more than an hour to get our food. I got a salad which was supposed to have blue cheese, but if it was there I certainly couldn’t taste it — and if there’s blue cheese, it’s pretty rare you can’t taste it.
The food was pretty good but not great, and the service was just awful. Also smoking was allowed in the bar, which I guess is a positive for some people but certainly not for me.

If you read my last review, then you know how paramount loyalty is to me. And with me, loyalty invariably involves quid pro quo.
I was first introduced to Corner Tavern at the 2013 Battle of the Burgers charity event. There’s an aphorism that stresses that individuals won’t remember what you say or do for them, but they will remember how you make them FEEL. That’s certainly true because I don’t remember which burger received my vote, but I do remember that Corner Tavern was the most generous with their freebies. My friend and I were so impressed by the free stuff coming from Corner Tavern’s booth that we both vowed to patronize Corner Tavern before the 2014 Battle of the Burgers. And, considering that said event is tomorrow, we procrastinated like champs!
The East Point Corner Tavern is a 2^nd story bar that is really inconspicuous, the kind of place that you could drive past every day and never notice unless you were specifically looking for it. It has all the trappings that you expect of a bar: a couple of dart boards, at least 4 billiard tables, TVs set to sports channels, a jukebox (that happens to resemble an iPhone, complete with giant touch screen), nightly specials, trivia & karaōke nights, heavy cigarette smoke, and people who’ve made questionable life decisions. One thing that Corner Tavern has that isn’t typical of bars is surprisingly good food. I ordered the Southwestern Chicken Pasta, which is delicious; it’s quite generous regarding portion size, and the chicken has just the right amount of char. I also had the pleasure of eating some of the Home Fry Platter. Pro Tip: order the Home Fry Platter. According to their menu, these fries are house cut, never frozen, and this yields excellent results. These fries are exquisitely seasoned and come with 2 (out of 10) dipping sauces of your choice plus a 3^rd mystery sauce. The Home Fry Platter is $ 6, but considering the quantity AND quality, that is a fair asking price. And you just know that Corner Tavern is confident in their fries to serve an entire tray of them.
As a straight edge guy, meaning that I don’t smoke or drink or do any drugs be they prescription or illicit, I always feel out of place while in bars. For example, when my party was seated, our server immediately brought cups of water and a large Jack Daniels bottle that functioned as our water pitcher. Lemme tell ya, it felt so alien to hold and pour that bottle given that I don’t partake of «the Devil’s water.» All that aside, I can see myself returning to Corner Tavern. It has good food & possibly the best fries that I’ve ever eaten, a somewhat arcane location giving it an almost exclusive feel, and the $ 20 food voucher that my party won as a 2^nd place trivia prize almost guarantees a return visit from this quid pro quo advocate.

This is an excellent place to hang out, play some pool, get some food, watch the eclectic clientele and listen to some very diverse music.
I have yet to have a bad meal in this place and they have a good beer selection as well. Definitely one of my favorite after hours places near the airport. I highly recommend trying this out!

Love this place! My boyfriend and I have been coming here for about 10 years or so now and we still love it. Karaōke night is entertaining and the music is good to listen to while talking and eating.
Pros: It’s a good atmosphere and place to gather for good food and drinks during the week or on the weekend. They have games, a outdoor patio and pool tables! FUN! We always order the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with Bleu cheese– we sub ranch– and get fries and onion rings as the sides. Freaking Delicioso!
Cons: The prices went up and they now charge $ 2.00 extra for onion rings and limit the selection of sides for platters. If you choose something that’s not under the list then you pay 2.00 more. Bummer! Anywho, it’s good enough that I pay anyway. Also, they allow indoor smoking so… If you hate cigarette smoke then this IS NOT THE PLACE FOR YOU! ! Pool tables, good food, good music, game nights and cigarette smoke! But again it’s worth it! Enjoy!
