Daiquiri Factory Midtown

Many years ago I used to go to the Original Daiquiri Factory in Midtown so I was curious when I learned that this location had popped up in recent times. Went early one afternoon and it wasn't too packed and the spot wasn't filled with hookah smoke so we were off to a good start. Sat at the bar and ordered a daiquiri to drink and the crab legs to eat. I like that they have a variety of flavors and they let you mix flavors for the daiquiri so you can get the perfect combination of your choosing. The crab legs were tasty but could have had a little more seasoning added to them while cooking. The bartender was friendly but you could tell she was initially quite busy running around and not being able to check on us as often as she probably would have liked to (I think they may have been understaffed or between shifts at that time). All in all, it was a good enough experience that I would definitely go back to dine there, if I can arrive early enough in the evening.

Met some friends here one evening, and the best part of it the visit was being at the restaurant with them. Everything else was lackluster--the food and the service. They kept some of the aesthetics from FLIP Burger Bar, but the food at the former restaurant was much better. It didn't help that I had to wait over 30 minutes to even order. The wings were okay. I wasn't crazy about the zucchini sticks. The drinks were decent.Make sure your expectations are low when you come here. Or just come with your friends and have fun with them without thinking of the food.

Seriously one of the best places to have a good time. This week has been so stressful, so glad I decided to come to the Daiquiri Factory on Friday. They had a live DJ, his name was Ben. Ben's selection of music was top notch, his music had everyone singing and it brought back all the best memories. To top off the good music, our waitress was amazing. Shout out to Kiki, she said she was new (maybe new to Atlanta because she was way too nice). Now onto the food...I've been coming here since they first opened. I used to live in the area. Since day one their beyond burger and fries are always fresh and so delicious. I order my beyond burger well done (and add mustard). The fries are seasoned to perfection and come out hot but it must be the steak fries kind not the crinkled ones. I would say though, I'm not a fan of the mayonnaise - tried making Fry Sauce (if you know, you know ) and their sprite was a little weak.I'm always going to come back for their food and music.

We love free parking, this spot has free parking and a good happy hour. Got daiquiris for $5 or $6 I forgot which price but they were good along with $3 well shots which I wouldn't do again I'd stick with a daquiri. The menu has the strength level of them and it's easy to mix and match. The service was good, my friend had good wings and fries. I ordered garlic bread to suck up the liquor, it was $3 and they brought me butter bread, no garlic just bread with butter so that was disappointing.I'll be back for the liquor but won't be getting the non-garlic bread again.

I haven't been to the daiquiri factory is years, looks like they're in a new location.I enjoyed my fish sandwich. Huge portion and yummy seasoned fried, but my partner said the fried fish sandwich was a bit too dry. We both agreed that the fries were great.We went in on Sunday around 1:30 and it was empty. Staff was super attentive and our food came out quickly. It was also FREEZING in there! Overall, a cool place to get some frozen drinks and catch up with friends, but I'd be mindful on what food options to select. I remember the crab fingers being so good, I wish I got them again but we had to hit the road. I hope those still slap.

Saw this spot in our way to our original location and decided to circle back after we done. Good decision. We sat at the bar and Ben was great! They let you sample as many flavors as you want before you make your decision. I opted for the DUI with Sour Apple. I'm not a huge fan of frozen drinks but it was good. The food menu seemed to have a good selection. All the dishes we saw come out looked good but we didn't have any. Vegan options are limited to a few side selections. We were almost ready to go when we smelled coals and sound out they sell hookah as well. It's separate from the bar so they don't advertise it. Hookah was $40. Seemed a bit pricey. It guess it's pretty standard for the area. Refill for the coals were free if needed.

We went on a Saturday night and it was jumping!! They always have great music.. gets everyone going and jammin. The service is ok nothing special, but what surprises me is the food. Last time I just had wings. This time I had the grits and shrimp po boy. Let me tell you those grits are one of the best I've had in the Atlanta area. Nice and creamy and flavor!! Sorry no pic it didn't come out right. The wings are always on point. The shrimp po boy was good too. Just would recommend putting the sauce on the sandwich, and it may come in the sandwich and our server may have just thought I wanted it on the side. My friends order the shrimp and fish sandwich and they were both impressed. Don't sleep on this place food!!

This ended up being a great late night option after High Frequency Friday at the art museum as they could handle a larger group. When we arrived in a Friday night right around 10 pm, we found parking spots. But shortly thereafter, a security guard set up signs for $5 parking.The business was able to seat our party pretty quickly and our server did a great job of taking our orders and getting our food and drinks in a timely fashion and a friendly manner.They had a good variety of flavors. Please be adventurous and try more flavors swirled together(so good).I'll definitely be back.

Daiquiri Factory midtown is an Atlanta staple that has moved to West Midtown off Howell Mill. The chain has many locations but grew to fame due to its old location off W. Ptree Road.The new location is rather New and offers a more crisp clean patio with nice lighting. Inside is modern and clean with a DJ and ample staff. The food isn't anything to brag about but is your normal bar food. This is totally a drinking spot so don't come here expecting the food to be amazingly good. This visit I ordered the shrimp platter which I found very generous in the portion! I do think they need to ditch the steak fries though. Just my opinion. My only con is the parking situation here. There is a lack of parking and I did see a small $5 charge. I had to park across the street at a body shop as many others did also. I'm curious how long that will last!?!!?... I suggest ubering if you come here!

First time going. The place had really nice vibes. The DJ was playing good music. Our server was great , she was super sweet and friendly. We didn't order any food because we were bar hopping the night lol. Next time.
