By George @ The Candler

In 1905, the Coca-Cola founder, Asa Candler, commissioned two architects to create a building that would become a landmark on Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta. The work of these architects, George Stewart and George E. Murphy, has been lovingly restored and reopened in the summer of 2019 as The Candler Hotel. The restoration of this stunning Beaux-Arts masterpiece represents a homecoming for Atlanta, bringing back a metropolitan polish that transcends trends and time. Within this iconic building, you will find a restaurant named By George, in honor of the architects who crafted its space. By George is the hotel's destination dining room, offering pure, classic cuisine with heavy influences from Contemporary American cooking. To complement the dishes, the restaurant has an extensive wine program and expertly crafted cocktails. The restaurant is open throughout the day, and the outward-facing design is fitting for a location that has so much to offer. The Candler Hotel, with its tow

What it is

By George is the all-day restaurant inside The Candler Hotel Atlanta, set in the space once occupied by Central Bank and Trust. The dining room is all north Georgia marble, crystal chandeliers and abundant natural light, a fitting stage for a menu of seasonal Contemporary American dishes built on classic technique. A deep wine list and a craft cocktail program run alongside the food.

When to go

The kitchen serves breakfast in the morning, lunch on weekdays, brunch on Saturday and Sunday, and dinner every night, so it works as easily for a morning meeting as for a special-occasion dinner. The bar opens in the late afternoon and stays open an hour later on Friday and Saturday nights. By George strongly recommends reservations, which you can make through the restaurant’s website.

Private events

For celebrations, rehearsal dinners or business dinners, the restaurant offers a 14-seat chef’s table, a 16-seat granite bar and a private cocktail lounge, with seasonal menus and a dedicated events team. Groups larger than 14 are asked to submit a proposal request form online.

Getting here

By George is at 127 Peachtree Street NE, in the landmark Candler Building. The restaurant offers valet parking for its guests at $6 for up to three hours.
