HereComesTheReignAgain Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I will be stuck flying to Atlanta for business on Sunday and staying in Marietta. I should be arriving around noon and would like to find a good bar to watch the game. Is anyone familiar with the Bills bars in that area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) Whitehall Tavern on Peachtree near Peachtree Battle. That’s the biggest one, but also Medlock Tavern (I’ve never done that one personally). If you want something closer (to most parts of Marietta), Padriacs near the Vinings is Buffalo folks. They have beef on weck on the menu, and the Bills on the main screen with (iffy) sound, but it’s nothing like the others. Edit: If you’re arriving about noon, you could go straight to Whitehall and it’s generally on your way to Marietta. Will you be renting a car?

HereComesTheReignAgain Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 I will be renting a car and staying at the Westin perimeter north in Atlanta. So I actually won’t be staying right in Marietta. My flight gets in at 11:50 so I won’t have a lot of time to travel to a bar. Thank you for the info! I really appreciate it. I normally watch the games with the North Jersey Bills Backers and would really like to find a bar with other Bills fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Had a good time at Whitehall Tavern last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Padriacs in Vinings, White Hall Tavern in Buckhead and Tavern at Medlock in Norcross are the Bills bars. There is a Mazzys in Marietta that shows all the games. That’s off of Roswell Road...it is a Jets chapter. There’s also Tin Lizzie’s that has the Sunday Ticket too....it’s a Steelers chapter I think. I live in Marietta so let me know if you need more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HereComesTheReignAgain Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 Thanks for all the advice! It looks like Whitehall Tavern is the best option based on my hotel location. Hopefully my flight is not delayed and I can get there in time for kickoff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Westin is SUPER nice...just had lunch there on Wednesday. P.S. Don't know how long you are there, budget, etc. - but if someone asks to take you to dinner - go to Hal's. Top 3 steak I have ever had. Edited December 1, 2017 by Richmond_Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinatraSinger Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 I'm actually headed to Atlanta this weekend also but for the Atlanta game. My son met Arthur Blank at his work place and they got along so Mr. Blank has given us passes into his suite this weekend with sideline passes. So I will be missing the Bills game this weekend, though Mr. Blanks suite may have TV's showing the other games. We will wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds awesome, but why do we call rich guys Mr.so and so, and normal guys we call by their first name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually calling him Mr because he is older than I am and I was always taught to address my elders as Mr or Mrs. I have not met him as of yet but when introduced on Sunday we will see what he wants me to call him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitehall is actually closest to the airport physically, and on a Sunday the traffic shouldn’t be too bad. (Famous last words in Atlanta...) Good choice. I’ll actually be at Whitehall tomorrow with a group watching the Xavier/UC hoops game. 2 hours ago, SinatraSinger said: I'm actually headed to Atlanta this weekend also but for the Atlanta game.

Before we moved to Atlanta my son shadowed at a high school he might have attended had we moved prior to his senior year. He shadowed with Rich McKay’s (Pres of Falcons) son. Somehow my wife got talking to his wife and we got invited to a game in the box. This was at the Georgia Dome, but it was still very cool to watch the game from the Presidents box. Rich watched the game from the owners box but came by to say hello. Very down to earth and likeable guy. Enjoy!

I’m coming from north jersey/ nyc area and I can’t imagine traffic being any worse! Thanks for the help and if you see a bald guy with a beard at the bar looking like a tourist, it might be me.
