    I love this place. Upstairs and downstairs boosts all kinds of things for adult fun from playing darts, to putt putt, bowling, and just hanging out with friends for good food and drinks. This is the place for all of that. Upstairs outdoor seating. Lots of seating Upstairs in general. Great place to also host events. They do great catered breakfast and lunch for big events. I have enjoyed every drink and every meal I have gotten here. The staff are attentive and kind. The prices are a bit high but it's the Battery. That's expected. It's on of the greatest restaurants and hang out places in the Battery!

    Very cool location! It’s huge and has bar games like corn hole, bocci ball, and darts. And other stuff like bowling. Punch was well made! Strong but still tasty. And our server was great. He was very attentive and funny. My date and I had a great time and we plan to return soon. Restrooms were clean. No concerns with hygiene. It gives very relaxed vibes. Family friendly (maybe maybe not, but I did see some kids there). My food order was the burger (delicioso!); my date ordered the bison patty melt. It was the ugliest and unsatisfying meal ever (and price did NOT match the quality). Unseasoned and did not even look like a patty melt. They lost a point for that. Parking = nightmare. Not enough at all.

    I enjoyed the atmosphere but the drinks could've been better and have more variety. We had to find our waiter to get silverware. The section we were in was cool but definitely wasn't the best place to sit for us to eat.

    If you’ve been to a Punch Bowl Social in another city - you’ll be glad to know this is quite similar For others: it’s a large venue with bars, games, karaoke (although these guys only seem to have one room and not multiple like I’ve seen in other cities’ socials) We went the night of a game so they were out of a lot of things actually. Including like lemons and quite a few other ingredients so we had to change out our cocktail orders a few times The food was really quite good and the outdoor seating area was nice. Our servers were extremely nice too but were so busy they had to be reminded to get us cutlery and waters etc. The indoors were really quite crowded and the layout actually seemed like they hadn’t planned for lots of areas for people to sit at. So just know you might struggle a bit if you go on a game day too. This is not a quiet venue to chill at

    Super fun! Took my team for lunch & they put us in the semi private table. The menu was elevated bar food & everything tasted great. There's tons of games too but we really enjoyed having this little area to talk & laugh. Definitely will be back

    It was very packed and busy. My first time there and was excited to try the punch bowl drinks, but apparently they ran out. That was disappointing. I did try the shrimp wraps which was average but a good appetizer. Overall I think it’s a fun social spot to hang out.

    We were here to celebrate our anniversary and we loved the atmosphere. Sometimes you need noice,fun,loudness and delicious food to have a romantic date rather than candle light silent zone. We loved to be here ,songs,service,atmosphere all good. Wish to have more dishes in the menu for vegetarians and chicken lovers. Rest all thumbs up 👍🏻.

    My friends and I had a great time! The food, drinks, and vibes were all super awesome. Our waiter Lauren was great. She even helped me pick what drink to get and it was super good! She recommended the El Diablo and it did not disappoint. Very tasty!

    This is a nice size restaurant with many activities such as billiards, cornhole, ping pong…etc. it was not crowded when I went but the service was extremely slow. I wanted to order dirty fries made with crab for an appetizer… but they were out… so I decided to get rolls… but guess what they were out of those too. This was very off putting that the restaurant was “OUT”of ingredients. This restaurant charges too much to be out of anything. My son and I finally found an appetizer that was available… bison chili fries… they were too salty and not visually appealing. By the way the fries are not fresh. For our entrees… I order a bison burger with fried onions according to the menu… the onions were sautéed… not fried… that is a big deal for me. The burger tasted like a liver sandwich🤮… I will give my remaining portion to my dog… maybe he will like it. My son order chicken and waffle… that was the only winner at the table… I will not be back!!! One of the worst burgers I have ever had!!!!

    We had a group of 12-15 and the service was horrible! Our waiter lacked knowledge and people skills. I thought he was a manager due to his attire but I asked & he wasn't. My food came out 45 minutes late and it WAS COLD. When it came back out they skimped me on the lobster.. He seemed flustered and upset with our entire party. The food lacked flavor and the Red Velvet cake was awful but I didn't taste it until I left. The karaoke was down so we had to go into a little room where we couldn't fit but we made the best of it. Drinks were the best part and they were just okay. They didn't even care that we weren't happy. We had reservations so not sure why you all went prepared.

    Visited this PBS just to have a drink during Super Bowl Sunday night. First I tried the “im on a whiskey diet” cocktail and it was really good. Then I decided to trust the bartender to make an old-fashioned and she did a great job! So impressed that I ordered another one. Definitely made the visit worthwhile. Lots of TVs and great sounds system. I’ll have to go back and try the games sometime.

    First time here, I really like the fact that they have all the activities and games to play, definitely amplifies the experience. Nice place to go with a group of friends or watch the football/basketball games. The service was good, everyone was very nice. The punch bowl was a tad weak, flavor was there but it could have used more alcohol. The food was okay, I felt my fried chicken was a tad over cooked and could have used some additional seasoning for flavoring, the burger was over cooked, tasted dry.

    We came to eat, watch the Braves game and have a few cocktails. The guy didn’t take our drink order for at least 40 minutes. We watched the Braves game. When he found time to take our order My sis got a tokyo tea or a tully tea shot (idk), my dad got a Long Island (he Didn’t even ask top shelf Or Well), my mom ordered Titos w/ a side of Cranberry Juice. I USUALLY order Jack on the rocks. Tonight, I don’t know why I ordered anything different…BIG Mistake. I ordered the Punch— “I’m on a Whiskey Diet Thirsty AF” (bourbon, Pear Chamomile Tea, honey, lemon juice, blueberries, lemon). Definitely sugary and sweet not what I wanted & learned my lesson on sticking with what I know & love. Originally, I did ask for the drink with No Pear Chamomile Tea. After 20 Minutes he came and said they can’t make it without the pear chamomile tea bc it’s already made in the cocktail as a large batch. I said “ok, that’s fine”…. Another 40 Minutes. Still no drinks. An hour and 15 minutes (literally) later my family’s drinks arrive. Seriously, not exaggerating. Still I don’t have my Supposedly pre-made by the “batch” cocktail. My drink “In on a whiskey diet” came out last ..after the Long Island, Tito’s & Tully tea shot by about 30 minutes, ask anybody at the table and check the cameras. It’s a fact. After 90 minutes, and 3 reminders to the server guy on patio I did get my “On a whiskey diet cocktail “ What a pity waste. Everyone was hungry and we didn’t feel like waiting on food or another round of drinks bc the server was so danm slow so I asked for a Togo cup. I paid the el cheque (bill), left the place and we All went to Yardhouse to close out our night, eat & drink. Yard house has tvs so we also finished watching the Braves, Ate AND enjoy another round of cocktails (made right). Mama got Tito’s with cranberry, My sister & I each ordered a side car and a Maui Chicken Entree from Yard house, my sis got sliders, my dad got fish and chips. In all kindness, I use to be a server for 12 years. So, I have sympathy. My advice: Train your servers better, they suck. I tipped 15% (being very generous tonight) and I usually tip at least 25% smh. Dining out shouldn’t be this hard or difficult. Maybe hire more than 2 ppl To work on the patio on “game” Days..idk ..but I try to come with solutions when Clearly it’s a problem. 1 star for punch bowl, 1 star for Yard house saving the night.

    This is definitely a crowded space, there are games being played, cornhole, ping pong, table games, bowling, pool. Its a lot! We didn't play games we just watched from our table. The food was just ok. Be warned... they tried to charge $72 for a punch bowl that only served 4 people. Skip the punch bowl if u are a drinker, its a waste of money.

    This was my first visit to any Punch Bowl Social. I had never heard of them before stopping by for dinner with a group of friends attending a conference. I played Cornhole for the first time in my life lol. The very name Cornhole makes me giggle. I lost. Didn't score a single point. At least I can check Cornhole off my bucket list. They had several foosball games but I didn't play. We just sat at a long table and talked and stuff. I think all the action was upstairs, judging by the other photos people have posted here. We never went up there, so I might have missed out on the real magic. But we had a nice time. I had carnitas tacos which were very tasty. Sorry, not a very thorough review on this place. I'm not sure what else to report. This place was perfectly adequate I guess. How about this: Come for the tacos, stay for the Cornhole.

    It's a fun place to hang out here. The food is okay. Nothing special about it, but there are dart, cornhol, and bowling activities you can do all in one place. It's easy to get to this place since it's in battery park. It's perfect for a company gathering event, dating place.

    It was my First time & will definitely be my last visiting this poor establishment. The SERVICE is absolutely horrible. Our waiter was extremely rude, there were 12 of us & the waiter managed to be rude & disrespectful to all of us. I wanted to order a drink so I went to the bar sat there for 30 minutes no one acknowledged me it was not busy. The bar was covered in trash dirty plates unfinished drinks. I ordered the main on 11th it was disgusting 🤢 for 16$. I do not recommend.

  • 4/5 Lo L. 2 years ago on Google
    Chill spot. Good atmosphere. Had the Peach frozen alcoholic drink, it was pretty good. My friend thought it was too sweet. The only light concern was that I was given a skinny straw when the drink was extremely thick. I ended up asking for a spoon. 🥴 As far as staff, some had on masks and some didn't. I was never asked for ID ever. In all, I will definitely be going back.

    Punch bowl social is a true vibe and experience. I went in on Thursday and had the best greeting from staff. The manager Abdul, is the best. He was so friendly and gets to know his customers. As someone here alone, he made me feel right at home. My daiquiri was delish, my food was fresh and tasty. Prices are are great and they have KARAOKE, bowling and so much more. I will definitely Make this a staple in my nights out. 100/10 highly recommended! Come see Abdul and the Punch bowl crew!

    I had a good time with my friends for NYE. There one drink I had that tasted like bacon omg it was gross. I had to order strawberry daiquiri. The food was good and the atmosphere was cool. Plenty to do if you just want to chill out. I like that spot. Happy New Year 😁

  • 4/5 Joseph S. 7 months ago on Google
    I tried vegan options this time. All of them are tasty. When you sit downstairs, they have to bring your food down from the elevator which is fine but if you need a correction, they have to go back up and grab it which can’t take a second and easier to forget Because of the set up . The roasted beet salad was $16 and really was arugula, beets, and pecans perhaps. It should be cheaper, but it was delicious for it only having a few ingredients. I did remove the cheese due to my restrictions. The eggplant dish was not in today. The chickpea dish was really good and filling. The green beans were just just right. The brussels sprouts were the star of the show but a bit salty. For this being a gaming spot, the food is pretty good. Some of the plates looked kind of regular but really no complaints although when I left most people needed a little more to eat but that’s because we stayed there several hours with karaoke. I’d recommend and come back.

    My bestie brought me here for brunch while my car was getting serviced. We just sat and ate but will definitely return for the activities. Taylor was wonderful! Everything we had was good but the shrimp tacos were bomb!

  • 5/5 Princeton N. 7 months ago on Google
    Evie and Angel are next level amazing. We came here for an office function and they made us all feel like we owned the place. Very rarely do you get that kind of service when it’s busy, but the way the manged everyone was nothing short of spectacular. Punch bowl is the perfect place for a quick connect with your team… just make sure these 2 are at the upstairs bar!!!

    This place was a lot of fun! The food was great and the atmosphere was amazing. If you are in Atlanta for a Braves game, or in the area, stop in!

  • 5/5 Kristen B. 1 year ago on Google
    We went here on a Saturday night last minute and were able to get seated immediately even though it was BUSY. Our server was very attentive and helped show us through every part of the menu. The vibe was super fun all around and they had AMAZING drinks. I recommend the Tea Sour if you love watermelon like me. Would definitely come again if I’m in the area!!

  • 5/5 Casey E. 11 months ago on Google
    I am utterly and completely obsessed with the Punch Bowl Social! The Menu has a variety of items to choose from for the foodie at heart! My partner and I decided to sit at the bar for a quick bite to eat and ended up staying to engage with Tim our bartender at the downstairs bar who was engaging, funny, knowledgeable, professional, and personable! My partner had the catfish meal and I indulged in the cilantro wings. I originally wanted the Low Country Crab Dirty Fries; but I decided to wait until my next visit! I highly recommend checking out The Punch Bowl Social! Cheers to an amazing evening!

    Awesome food. Great service. Fun, light atmosphere! Great drinks. Recommend the Steal My Sunshine. Food prices for portions were better than most places in Atlanta.

  • 4/5 Janessa D. 8 months ago on Google
    We came on a Saturday evening before a game. While the atmosphere, food, and drinks were great- service was rough. Long story short- we waited an hour after being sat (which we only waited ten minutes for a table) before our server came. We tried to be understanding and gave them the benefit of the doubt, however after our first thirty minutes of waiting, we spoke up and contacted another server to try and figure out what was going on. We thought she had solved the issue and put in an app for us after our wait. This was not the case. Another thirty minutes went by and once again, we tried to be understanding. However, once we realized it had been an hour in total, we contacted another server in attempts to figure it out. Ultimately, they ended up waiting on our table and they were kind and attentive. I believe this all happened during a shift change, but an hour wait before being able to put in any food got a bit aggregating. Additionally, by the time everything was put through and we were finished dining, we planned to get our parking validated here. However, they told us they ran out of stickers after we had spent $80+ between two people and there was nothing they could do. Hoping this is not the norm and we just had an unfortunate first experience in that regard. Otherwise, I think this is a great spot which is why I still am giving it a 4 star rating!

  • 2/5 Angie F. 1 year ago on Google
    The only thing that saved this place/ review was the food. I had the Chicken and Waffle. It was very good. It was served with a Chipotle syrup. The drinks were super small. We went to bowl but they only had 2 lanes working and they said they were having issues with those. We had to wait on silverware. There was a nice ambience though.

  • 5/5 Symone M. 2 years ago on Google
    This is very nice brunch spot! I loved the food (I ordered the chicken and waffles) and my husband ordered the pecan French toast. I also loved the Frosé that I ordered. 🙌🏽 My husband and I plan to return. I loved the experience and the food! 🔥

    This is definitely a place to hang out with friends. I was passing by while watching a movie and the place had so many good vibes. Watch my full walkthrough video of the punch bowl on Tik tok & Instagram for more of Atlanta’s top resturants at myrecipesforsuccessatl
