This bar is a true Decatur staple, embodying the quintessential dive bar experience. The vibe here is relaxed, and the crowd is genuinely welcoming, making it a great spot for a casual drink with friends or to kick off a lively night out. While the food isn't anything to write home about--suitable for a light snack--ordering is done exclusively at the bar, so be prepared to be patient during busy times. And don't miss out on the fantastic drunk bingo every Thursday!

Stumbled across Trackside Tavern after being recommended to come here on a Sunday (when bars were closing before or by midnight across ATL) by a local bartender. I was happy we came here as there was 1) delicious and a variety of food, 2) plenty of space to hang, play pool, watch tv, and drink, and 3) a huge selection of draft beers and craft cocktails to have while you hang out. Outside area, in the back, was a chill spot too and a great way to meet locals and people who are hanging out. I ordered wings after midnight and they were delicious! My friends had a burger and fries and that slammed too. Definitely look at the board at the entrance for any specials on food and/or drinks. There are 2 sides of the bar so don't be shy and feel free to order your drinks or food on the other side if it is too crowded for you near the front. There is plenty of seating (booths) on the other side as well and is spacious. Loved that even though there were plenty of people hanging out and drinking that it never felt crowded. Definitely a spot to go to even if all other places are open and bumping. This is a cool dive!

This is not the kinda place one searches yelp for. This place is somewhere you stumble into cause nothing else is open. The beer selection is wide and the food is alright. The bartender Thursday night is a sweetheart. Took care of me and my guy. The patrons are friendly and this is cheers but not as preppy. The vibe, decor and everything around screams dive. Which I love but if your not comfortable with will be hard to swallow as they clearly are in their comfort zone. The only lost star is the mediocre food. But I would be back for the pool or darts or beer or the food since nothing else was open lol.

I've been coming to trackside on and off every time I live in the area. It is my favorite bar mostly because it's a friendly vibe with bartenders and customers, and it's great drink prices. I always meet someone new when I go to this joint. Lately I've been taking the pups to the outdoor patio. You can get drinks outside, but because they allow smoking, you can't take food outside. That's Decatur law. But it really sucks, it's the only reason I can give it 5 stars otherwise. Josh has been my bartender primarily, and he is great at remembering drinks and what the food and drink specials are to help you make a choice. They have fun shot options, and a great beer selection, which changes routinely. This bar can be one for you to go to every week because you dig the people, and because you can change up your order! The food is great here! For bar food, I would say it's one of my favorites. I love the mozzarella sticks, and the nachos! It's great portions for the price. I've also tried the wings and they were great as well! There's parking in the back - or it's an easy walk from the square and away from the chaos if you need a break from the square!
