Red's Beer Garden

Red's Beer Garden in Benteen Park brings families, neighbors, and dogs together in one place. So, Red's Beer Garden was born. All are welcome. All are loved.
(2)

Red's Beer Garden is a counter-service restaurant in the Benteen Park neighborhood of Atlanta. Coming from Wilmington, NC, the owners (Kristen aka 'Red' and Ed Sumpter) loved local spots showcasing beer in self-serve coolers. After moving to Atlanta, their mission was to find a similar cool beer spot, but it just didn't exist. Red's offers hot dogs, sandwiches, and over 250 types of beer, wine, ci

der, mead, seltzer, and non-alcoholic options from our self-serve glass door coolers. Beers from around the world, and from breweries down the road - everything from Monday Night Blind Pirate, to a Duchesse de Bourgogne, to a PBR. We are family- and dog-friendly, and offer events and drives for non-profits throughout the year, with a focus on connecting our community and neighborhood. At Red's, we believe in creating memories, cultivating friendships, and coming together with a common purpose: to enjoy good food and drink.

🌈PRIDE PARTY🌈
THIS Sunday, June 14th
12-6 pm
Rain or shine
Swipe for parking and event menu
Free, not ticketed, and all ages*

One of my favorite parts of Pride at Red’s is highlighting the businesses that financially support LGBTQ+ communities year-round!

We’ll be featuring beers, ciders, THC beverages, kombucha, and N/A options from companies that donate to LGBTQ+ organizations, support LGBTQ+ employees, or otherwise put real dollars behind the community.

A HUGE thank you to:
Brooklyn Brewery
Fremont Brewing
Bluejacket Brewery
Monday Night Brewing
Allagash Brewing
ANXO Cider
Atlanta Hard Cider
Botanist & Barrel
Aval Cider
Kea Kombucha
Athletic Brewing
Señorita THC
RYTHM THC

Their support helps make Atlanta - and the United States - a little more welcoming, safe and inclusive.

While you’re here, grab this year’s Pride glass before we sell out! All glassware proceeds benefit ’s “Pride Across the Peach State” grantmaking initiative, supporting LGBTQ+ communities throughout Georgia. Atlanta Pride will also be hanging out in the garden if you’d like to learn more or sign up to volunteer.

And because it wouldn’t be a Red’s party without some fun:
💘Baby Dee will be keeping the garden entertained all afternoon with crowd games, drag performances, and her signature platform crocs (BRING ONES!!!!)
💘Atlanta Freedom Bands’ Drumline and Color Guard will stop by for a pop-up performance. YEEHAW.

*but there will be a LOT of adult content 😀

We’ve NEVER shown sports before. But every four years, the world somehow gets behind the same thing at the same time. For one month, everybody suddenly has something to talk about with the person sitting next to them that isn’t depressing. Heck… let me open Red’s freaking doors to that.

And look - we’re not pretending to be the craziest soccer bar in Atlanta. It’s Red’s. We’re chill. You wanna be chill? Cool, come be chill with us. We’re just trying to make chill friends over here.

Inside the dining room with sound, drink specials, and a beer garden to wander around during halftime. We won’t be showing every match, but we will be opening early/staying open late for some, so make sure to check out the link in our bio for the games we’ll be showing at Red’s.

Match Specials:

We’ll have 50+ games set up in the garden. Swing by anytime between 1 - 4 pm and grab one (or a few?… let’s say a 3 game limit per household). First come, first served.

All we ask is that for every game you take, you donate at least $1 to - our Q***r . Another incredible regular, Abby, keeps it stocked when it runs low, so let’s build her book fund back up. Any amount helps (thank you, Abby)!

Want to bring a game/s and swap instead? Sure! Just make sure it’s in good condition - act like your mother raised you right.
