Years ago, it would've been difficult to imagine a spot like Seven Lamps being successful in the trendy Buckhead area of Atlanta. But Seven Lamps is thriving. The spot, located next to Lenox Mall in Buckhead, is somewhat of a gastropub which features craft cocktails.
While the space itself is small, there is quite a large portion dedicated to mixing cocktails. Whether it's vodka, rum or bourbon that you like, you'll find the perfect cocktail to fit your style at Seven Lamps. They even have a machine to infuse fizz into drinks, so they don't get the watered down taste that comes with tonic. If you're not sure what to order, just ask one of the friendly waitstaff and they'll be more than happy to make some suggestions.

Choose from menu items like beet salad, the off-the-menu bacon burger or pasta with rabbit or gnocchi. The charcuterie plate is outstanding and perfect for a group to share. The lobster roll is one of the best in city; it makes a great starter to share or you could have it as a meal paired with another side.
The restaurant is open late at night until 2 am on the weekends. Reservations are recommended for any night to ensure there's not a lengthy wait. Note that tables are communal in both the bar and the dining room.
