East Atlanta Village isn’t exactly synonymous with sports. But drinking? Yes indeed. So when we want to participate in two of our favorite activities, we head to Midway Pub at the end of the EAV strip to grab a pitcher from their lengthy on-draft list and watch sports on the many TVs and projector screens that line the walls above the wooden bar. The standout here is the massive, partially covered patio, dotted with string lights that set the mood at night—and we’re suckers for some well-placed string lights. Midway’s food is typical bar bites, so grab some decent hot wings and a pretty good smash burger (double patties and plenty of pickles) to go along with that beer.
