Atlanta's Original Brewpub
Your Beltline Brewpub
Paul Smith founded Park Tavern in Atlanta in 1999 in the heart of the city’s famed Piedmont Park. For almost two decades, he has been a restaurant entrepreneur, opening the first and oldest brewpub in Atlanta in 1996.
In 1999 he changed the concept of the restaurant and renamed it Park Tavern. He has since dedicated himself to the successful operation of Park Tavern for the past 22 years, remodeling and adding to the facility. He continues to update it with cutting-edge improvements in food and design.
