Located in Grant Park not too far from the park and a part of the Beacon development. Grab a pint and check out shops & restaurants. Fun fact -there's a horse farm across the street that is used for the Atlanta Police Department - Mounted Patrol Unit (who would have thought that we actually have an equestrian police force!).
