Restaurants
Crafted Places, Soulful Experiences
At Brewed to Serve, we believe every restaurant tells its own story—rooted in creative design, award-winning flavors, and local spirit. From Max Lager’s historic microbrewery to the refined soul of White Oak and the vibrant sanctuary of Bold Monk, each concept is thoughtfully shaped to welcome, delight, and connect. Visit us to experience spaces (and hospitality) that are as genuine as they are inspired.
White Oak: Where the Souths Meet
The South has never been just one place. It’s the comfort of a Georgia kitchen at sunset, where recipes are passed down through generations. And it’s the warmth of the Mediterranean—the terraces of southern France, the coastal air of Morocco, the olive groves of Sicily. Different regions, but the same spirit of hospitality, tradition, and care.
Cuisine du Sud, “the cuisine of the South,” brings those worlds together. It’s where American Southern cooking, grounded in memory and resilience, meets Mediterranean ingredients and technique—olive oil, spice, and soul. Cornbread and couscous share the same table. Collard greens meet preserved lemon. Every dish reflects what happens when stories and flavors move, blend, and evolve.
At White Oak, we cook with respect for where food comes from and curiosity for what’s possible next. A seafood stew might carry the influence of both the Lowcountry and the Maghreb. A slice of pecan pie may be brightened with rose water. Each plate connects the familiar with the unexpected.
Located in the heart of Downtown Atlanta, White Oak is a gathering place for neighbors, travelers, and friends. We serve more than a meal—we serve heritage. Our space, like our menu, is warm, intentional, and designed to bring people together.
White Oak is where the Souths meet—and where that story continues to unfold.
Bold Monk Brewing Co.
Bold Monk is much more than a brewery. It’s a Belgian-inspired restaurant, an intellectually curious bookstore, and a collection of community-centered spaces—each designed to offer a European-style escape in the heart of Atlanta’s Westside, a city whose global influence continues to grow.
Our inspiration comes from the balance between creativity and contemplation. From the belief that great things happen when people slow down, share a table, and connect.
The name Bold Monk reflects that idea. It tells the story of a monk who, after a lifetime of searching for meaning, discovered it not in ambition or noise, but in stillness, craft, and fellowship. When he introduced the art of brewing to his community, it wasn’t for indulgence—it was for connection. A way to serve others and create something that brought people together.
That spirit guides everything we do. At Bold Monk Brewing Co., beer is just the beginning. Each plate, each pour, each conversation reflects our belief that hospitality is both an art and a practice. Our space invites curiosity, creativity, and comfort in equal measure—where European sensibility meets Atlanta energy.
We brew, we cook, we gather. Not just to serve, but to inspire. To offer a place where craft, community, and conversation meet—where being bold and being mindful are one and the same.
Max Lager’s Wood-Fired Grill & Brewery: The Soul of Georgia Brewing
Nestled among the ever-evolving skyline of Downtown Atlanta, Max Lager’s is more than a restaurant—it’s a living landmark. As Georgia’s oldest brewpub, its story is written in brick and flame, carried in every pint poured and every meal served.
Since opening in 1998, Max Lager’s has been defined by its signature wood-fired grill, craft cocktails, and house-brewed beer—a combination that has earned it both staying power and loyal fans across decades. Here, the energy of the city meets the enduring comfort of great food, beer, and service.
Inside, the wood fire is always at the heart of the kitchen. Every steak, every pizza, every charred edge speaks to the timeless craft of cooking over flame. Just steps away, the brewery brings its own rhythm. Each beer is brewed on-site, guided by tradition and experimentation in equal measure. From bright, citrus-forward IPAs to smooth, malt-rich stouts and crisp, refreshing lagers, every pour reflects the care and curiosity that have defined Max Lager’s for more than 25 years.
The space carries that same balance of history and warmth. You can feel it in the hum of conversation, the glow of the bar, and the easy camaraderie that fills the room. It’s a place where locals gather, travelers linger, and everyone feels part of the story.
At Max Lager’s, we believe in the lasting power of good food, good beer, and genuine hospitality. It’s what’s kept us here—through trends, through time, and through generations of guests who’ve made this place their own. More than a brewpub, Max Lager’s is an Atlanta institution—rooted in craft, fueled by fire, and dedicated to the kind of experience that never goes out of style.
