Ticonderoga Club

"The cocktail king of Krog Street Market is where folks go for an eclectic menu. Those looking to eat steak for up to six people should consider ordering the Chuckwagon feast here. A dinner bell announces the arrival of the platter, which comes with 48 ounces (trimmed down from a 64-ounce cut) of medium-cooked, black Angus chuck roast served with roasted potatoes, fresh horseradish, wort, parsley and red onion salad, and a choice of two sides. Reservations required." - Su-Jit Lin

"To be a member of this Krog Street Market New England-style tavern, one simply has to walk in, grab a seat, and order a drink or a meal. Try popular menu mainstays like the Ipswich clam roll, the seasonal vegan noodle bowl, or the Club’s iconic veal sweetbreads. Cocktails at Ticonderoga Club are always top-notch, as the restaurant is owned by three trailblazers of Atlanta’s cocktail movement: Greg Best, Paul Calvert, and Regan Smith. The drinks rotate regularly here, but T-Club’s mint julep riff, the Ticonderoga Cup, and an Irish coffee are always on the menu. Reservations are highly encouraged." - Eater Staff

"Ticonderoga Club at Krog Street Market is co-owned by three forefolk of Atlanta’s cocktail movement: Greg Best, Paul Calvert, and Regan Smith. Cocktails rotate regularly here, but T-Club’s mint julep riff, the Ticonderoga Cup, and an Irish Coffee are typically always on the menu, alongside drinks like Slabtown Sling made with gin, lemon and lime benedictine, hibiscus, and soda, the Champ-Ale mixed with sweet vermouth, lemon, lager, and a dry sparkling wine." - Beth McKibben, Henna Bakshi

"When the mood calls for a round of drinks and a good meal, Ticonderoga is the total package. This Krog Street Market bar is perpetually lit by hanging Christmas lights, and cocktails like the Ticonderoga Cup (rum, cognac, and sherry) are a must. The small, seasonally changing menu has a bit of everything—from Chinese to Mexican dishes. And while we recommend diving into the excellent steak tartare or a huge plate of spiced pork confit, what you’ll really want to witness (or order yourself, depending on your appetite) is the $200 chuck wagon. A bell ringing signals that someone ordered it, followed by a big kerfuffle of servers gathering to cheer you on and present the enormous 64-ounce chuck roast.

"You can get well drinks anywhere. Vacation calls for drinks with pizzazz. Ticonderoga Club is a funky dining den and bar on the Eastside BeltLine with high standards for its food and drink. The cocktail lineup is like a temperamental teenager—changing constantly. But if you spot A Turf Club on the menu, know you’ll be in for a good night with this lightly sweetened, herbal gin martini. If you’re steering clear of alcohol, they have excellent mocktails too, like the Rose Bush, a citrusy drink with apple cider vinegar, pineapple, and lemon, that tastes like a lemon ball drop." - nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
