Located on the corner of 10th Street and Monroe Downtown, Park Tavern is a quaint little restaurant nestled within the heart of Atlanta, Georgia's beautiful Piedmont Park. At this cozy, lodge-like restaurant, patrons can dine with a spectacular view of the park, with the Midtown area skyline as a backdrop.

One of Park Tavern's most attractive features is it's spacious outdoor terrace, where live music is often playing and where diners can sit back and relax while enjoying the pleasures of the natural world outside. Dog lovers rejoice! Dog tie-ups are also available on the patio, so you can refuel and relax after a day of playing at the park with your pet.

Park Tavern's standard menu offers classic American favorites like salads, hamburgers, and buffalo wings. If you're looking for something a little different, try the tangy artichoke dip or the savory pecan-smoked barbeque chicken. A wide variety of beers are also available, including the unusual, but tasty, Park Trail Ale and the slightly heavier Olmsted Amber. Of course, a full bar is also available and is located in the inner dining room.

If you have the opportunity, definitely check out Park Tavern's Sunday Brunch, which offers a huge selection of breakfast and lunch items that are all the more delicious when enjoyed in beautiful weather on the outdoor patio.

Aside from the restaurant's standard in-house dining, Park Tavern also offers catering for both its upstairs banquet hall, The Piedmont Room, and for off-site events. Without a doubt, however, Park Tavern is a beautiful event venue overall. With its breathtaking views and charming ambiance, it is the perfect location for any reception.

Park Tavern's patio and inside dining room are open from 4:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. from Monday to Friday. On Saturdays, the restaurant is opened from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 a.m. And, on Sundays, Park Tavern is open from 11:30 a.m. to midnight.

Keep an eye out for Park Tavern's frequently advertised special events, which often include concerts. Beer lovers should also note that on rainy days the restaurant attempts to draw in crowds with its $1 pint specials.

Park Tavern also offers frequent diners a rewards program known as "Royalty Rewards." In this program, the restaurant will credit every dollar you spend. After a certain number of credits, customers will receive a $10 gift card to be redeemed at Park Tavern.
