el Barrio

Nestled in the heart of Five Points, this Athens hotspot feels a well balanced diet is made of a taco in one hand and a margarita in the other. el Barrio delivers an awesome experience for any audience. The space is almost entirely outdoors, with ordering, dining and drinking under the large metal roof porch, patio umbrellas, or the shade of Georgia pines. It’s the ideal tailgate spot to watch your favorite sporting event or cheer on the Dawgs with friends. Grab a drink from their custom Southern Brewing Co. beer cart, test out their putting green and snap some photos in front of their three distinctive murals, created by Athens' most talented artists. Taco happy hour is daily 3-6 p.m. Parking out back or at their bike rack.
