East Atlanta

Beneath the 2015 incarnation of this bohemian neighborhood lies a storied past. What is now Flat Shoals Avenue—home to craft-beer bars, intimate music venues, and inventive restaurants—used to be the Sandtown Trail, a Creek Indian trading route. And where now Craftsman bungalows dot the residential streets, cannons and rifles once roared among the old-growth oaks during the Battle of Atlanta. Situated three miles east of downtown, East Atlanta melds the historic and the contemporary with a dose of independent-minded swagger, appealing equally to the weekend party crowd, 30-something professionals, families with kids, and long-time residents who still tend their gardens and water their lawns, watching the ebbs and flows of the diverse and dynamic neighborhood they all call home.

The Graveyard fits in just right in East Atlanta Village. A few neighborhoods to the north, and this type of place might attract the popped-collar crowd. But here, with its macabre name, dark interior, and a custom hearse parked out front, the Graveyard traffics more in tattoos and piercings than sorority rings. The big square interior bar serves strong drinks the whole night long, as patrons lounge on couches and chairs, shoot pool, and dance it out every weekend. The Graveyard features a full kitchen but its iconic status as EAV’s one true clar makes it more of an after-hours proposition.
