The Midway Pub

A fun and easy spot for a drink in the neighborhood, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Midway on a recent Friday night. We popped in before a show, and loved how simple it was to order food and drinks at their walk-up counter. We settled in with a couple margs, garlic soft pretzels, and a surprisingly fresh hummus and falafel plate at a hightop on their expansive but cozy patio, and had a great time. A new EAV favorite.

When i got there, i was like hmm a Buffalo Chicken Wrap seems nice, and when i got it, the chips were dry and tasteless. I took a bite of that wrap and it tasted like straight vinegar...Then i decided to order their chicken tenders cuz u cant mess up chicken tenders, right? Well they were DRYYY and the breading was straight up ass, it didnt have any seasoning and only tasted like flour. The chicken wasn't even good smh...What made me extremely mad was that i ordered a lemonade cuz i love lemonade bro, IT WAS SO BADDD i cant even describe it, shit didnt even taste like lemonade.The burger was ok but the fries were dry too bro, barely any seasoning and moist, istg this is the worst place I've been to....At least there was a cure dog outside, that made me feel better but still this place is ass, i DO NOTTTT recommend at all

Dog friendly patio: check. Good solid bar food: check. Plenty of tv's: check. Tasty drinks: check. So overall, the perfect chill spot for a bite to eat in East Atlanta. After grabbing beers at Hippin Hops down the street, we decided to grab some REAL food but would also allow the pups, so our friends suggested The Midway Pub. Definitely super dog friendly, as there were already a few dogs on the patio when we arrived. We ordered inside at the register, I am a sucker for a greasy patty melt and that was exactly what I got, with a side of tots. And i don't mean that in a negative connotation at all. It was solid and perfect for soaking up the alcohol. Speaking of alcohol, they had boozy slushies going so of course I had to order one. The Midway Pub is the perfect spot for dog friendly sport watching hanging with solid food and drink!

You wanna go where everyone knows your name This is my version of a Cheers bar. Local down to earth people, good drinks, yummy fast food, TVs, good music and things like Tuesday night trivia. No pretentious vibes. Just a cool local place to relax and have a few drinks solo or with friends. EAV secret!

If you are looking for a new "guilty pleasure" spot, this is it. Food is delicious and while I am sure they have some healthy options, we ordered all the non healthy options lol. First of all, you have to try this place at least once just for the "Walking Tacos". Its a shell-less taco inside a bag of fritos. Delicious! I had it with Beyond meat instead of real meat and it was still delicious. I also had a fried chicken sandwich and by bf had the catfish and grits. The grits were super creamy. We topped this all off with a High Noon seltzer. This place was delicious and I will be back! For more food reviews, follow @theboogiefoodie

While I don't think I got to truly experience Midway Pub in the way it was meant to be experienced, I really liked what I got.So due to COVID, everything was outside which was the biggest change I assume in the establishment. You walk up to a counter, order, and if you want to leave a tab open you could. Once your order is ready (both drink and food) they call your name and you pick it up. There is very little human interaction here due to the regulations.I got their Chicken sandwich and a Greek salad. The chicken sandwich was so spicy. I like a spicy chicken sandwich and this was it! I only wish I had more to drink to cool down my mouth. The Greek salad was great, but the only thing I didn't like was that there were so many hot peppers in there. Like TONS! For my drink, I got their hard apple cider which was my favorite thing of the night. I had two it was so good. Perfect for a cool night in Atlanta.The downside to their COVID set up is everything is line based so if you've got a tab open you have to get in the same line as the people who never ordered to either get another drink or close it out. So there tends to be a lot of standing around if it gets busy. I'm thankful they were open, so believe me I'm not saying anything truly bad about it, but it was a pain point in an overall great experience. I can't wait to come back once things are better and truly experience this place.

This place sucks. I mean, maybe it once something better pre-pandemic. First of all, you have to order at the counter and then help yourself to silverware and condiments. Food came out pretty quickly, but you have to walk up to the bar every time you want to order a drink. No table service whatsoever. But I think the most horrible aspect of this place is the wretched punk music (sounding like the Dropkick Murphys) blaring. I will not be going back. There are much better places to dine EAV.

5 stars for a wide selection of beer and 1 star for food. The food has gone downhill, not sure why. 16$ for a burger plate with that's about the size of a McDonald's burger and Ore-Ida frozen fries. The fish sandwich tastes like it was caught in the local creek. It was 12$ by itself without fries.

Midway is my neighborhood watering hole. Right on the edge of the East Atlanta Village and right where you can actually find parking and have elbow room.Good food options. Full bar. Good vibes. Pretty solid all around.They have by far the layout for service based on the health and safety conscious society we live in now. You give your order to a server soon as you walk in the building, they call you up to get your food, you find your own seat, and you enjoy. No close contact, orders are fast, and everyone's safe.As far as recommendations, I usually get wings (lemon pepper) or the Nashville Hot Chicken Sammich. Tater Tots over fries in my opinion.

Went on a whim and was so pleasantly surprised. I got a fried chicken sandwich and a beer, very standard. The food was SO good & beer was solid. Good amount of seating and combo of indoor/outdoor seating. Will definitely be returning!
