Buteco
Coffee Bar · Beacon
Sometimes the drinks are really cheap but they're always delicious. They have caipirinhas and the coxinhas from their little food truck are delicious.

Arches Brewing
Brewery · Hapeville
I can bring my own chair and stay for five hours and it's never a problem. Everybody is really friendly and you get a train shot whenever a train goes by.

Monday Night Grove
Brewery · Blandtown
Chill brewery in NW Atlanta. Great beers, cocktails actually reasonable at $14, pizza oven cranking out pies that look legit, plus wings and salad. Sit inside or outside. Favorite detail: free EV charging. Went with coworkers, spent $65 on drinks, got about $20 of free charging back while we were there. Totally worth it.

Monday nights are a rotating guest chef pop-up at 5pm till sold out. Wednesday music bingo with Dirty South. Sunday brunch with a live jazz band at 2.

Gives you an activity to do because it's a darts place. Has a slightly upscale vibe so it feels nice to do but it's still relatively inexpensive.

Window service — one line for food, a separate bar for cocktails. Lines can run long but pressure is low once you're sat. Relatively inexpensive.
