Le Bilboquet

Le Bilboquet

A haven for enjoying French bistro fare and sophisticated sips in a vibrant atmosphere, Le Bilboquet brings a slice of Paris to the center of Buckhead Village. New this season, the Raspberry Beret—made with High West double rye, housemade raspberry shrub, ginger liqueur and orgeat—is perfect for savoring on the restaurant’s patio. Pair with the de-shelled Maine whole lobster a la plancha with almond arugula pesto linguine, cherry heirloom tomato and beurre blanc. 3027 Bolling Way NE, lebilboquetatlanta.com

Forza Storico

An authentic Italian experience featuring timeless Roman dishes, an expertly curated wine list and alfresco seating awaits at Forza Storico, located in Westside Provisions District. Mouthwatering carbonara, amatriciana and cacio e pepe are on the menu, alongside 15 cocktails and 20 Italian beers. Opt for beverage director Jose Pereiro’s spring drink of choice, the Basilico Gimlet, made with Bombay Sapphire, pamplemousse, lime, grapefruit, bitters, basil leaves and basil oil. 1198 Howell Mill Road, forzastorico.com

Kyma

Escape to Santorini at Kyma, the Buckhead restaurant bringing a lavish dining experience and a handselected menu stocked with classic meze (Grecian small plates), pastries, seafood, cocktails, Greek wines and ouzo. This summer, snag a spot on Kyma’s dreamy weatherproof patio and enjoy seasonal beverage favorites such as the Morpheus martini with Barr Hill gin, elderflower liqueur, fresh lavender petals, lemon juice and candied hibiscus flower. 3085 Piedmont Road, buckheadrestaurants.com/restaurant/kyma

Mission + Market

Contemporary American eatery Mission + Market boasts a uniquely designed menu, an expansive wraparound patio and a bar program cultivated with the freshest local ingredients and syrups made in-house. Indulge with the bright and refreshing Ode to Betty cocktail, a delightful blend of butterfly pea-infused vodka, grapefruit, lemon and soda. To share, order the grilled Spanish octopus with hazelnut romesco and shaved vegetables, or try the braised brisket topped with caramelized sweet onions, peppered avocado and mozzarella. 3550 Lenox Road, Ste. 550, missionandmarketatl.com

Drawbar

Beyond the accommodations at boutique hotel Bellyard, buzzy food and beverage concepts await. Especially of intrigue is Drawbar, a craft American tavern residing in the hotel’s lobby area. A one-stop shop for all things bar-centric bites, dishes and craft cocktails, Drawbar houses 160 seats, both inside and out, and at the expansive bar. Inside tip between friends: Grab a spot on the open-air terrace for unbeatable skyline views. 1 Interlock Ave. NW, bellyardhotel.com/dine/drawbar

Three Taverns Imaginarium

In the popular Atlanta Dairies complex—literally right next door to Wonderkid—is Three Taverns Craft Brewery’s second location, Three Taverns Imaginarium. The two-story brewery and tasting room is the perfect Saturday drinking spot. Grab a draft beer from the to-go window (and stock up on a sex-pack to save for later) before snagging a seat on the brewery’s expansive outdoor patio. If you want to sit at the center of the action, you can also enjoy your beverage in The Yard, Atlanta Dairies’ half-acre green space, where you’re sure to see plenty of pups. 777 Memorial Dr. SE, threetavernsbrewery.com/imaginarium

Gypsy Kitchen

You haven’t been fully introduced to Atlanta’s nightlife scene until you’ve spent a happy hour (or two or three) at Gypsy Kitchen. The buzzing rooftop is a favorite of JEZEBEL’s Most Beautiful and Most Eligible Atlantans, and it isn’t hard to see why. Whether you’re snacking on one of the resto’s savory small plates or simply sipping on sangria, it’s the ideal place to be during a Saturday sunset. 3035 Peachtree Road NE, gk-atl.com

Willow Bar

Willow Bar is nestled behind the Kimpton Silvan Hotel’s lobby living room area, double doors open to unveil a captivating garden-esque sanctuary, complete with the bar’s namesake willow oak tree and thoughtful touches like illuminating floor lanterns. Sommelier Joe Billesbach has curated a selection of “patio-perfect wine offerings” alongside plenty of enticing cocktails, while executive chef Brandon Chavannes whips up delicious plant-based plates alongside nonvegetarian standouts. 374 East Paces Ferry Road NE, willowbarbuckhead.com

The Betty

Inspired by the glamorous supper clubs that dominated the mid-1900s, The Betty instantly transports guests to a bygone era when drinking and dining demanded a certain level of luxury. Behind the bar, sharply dressed bartenders shake up expertly crafted martinis served alongside redefined and reimagined cuisine. Grab a seat in the lavish dining room or on the outdoor patio and enjoy a blast from the past. 374 East Paces Ferry Road NE, thebettyatl.com

St. Julep

Atlantans love a good rooftop bar moment, so it comes as no shock that Buckhead’s groovy new bar and lounge is quickly becoming the place to see and be seen. Perched high on the ninth floor of the recently opened Kimpton Sylvan Hotel, the flashy indoor-outdoor space boasts a curated drink menu which shows love to tried-and-true classics like the gin and tonic, margarita and highball, but it’s the boozy soft serve ice cream that’s calling our name. 374 East Paces Ferry Road NE, saintjulepatl.com
