"Manuel's Tavern is a reliable neighborhood hangout for beer and decent bar food. And as another historic Poncey site, it feels like stepping into a nostalgic time capsule with polaroids of old employees and a mish-mash of old-timey Atlanta memorabilia on the walls. With two massive dining rooms, it’s never hard to find a seat and there’s plenty of bar food options on the menu to keep everyone happy. Make sure to order the sweet and spicy Terry-style wings and the massive, classic McCloskey Cheese Burger, named after a long-time employee. Swing by, grab a beer, and bask in this bar from another era." - juli horsford
