    Atlanta Kilt Night for April

    April 6 is National Tartan day, but I don't see any celebrations here in the Atlanta area. Would we like to meet on the 6th, a Wednesday, or would the following Saturday, the 9th, be more popular?

    I almost always wear a kilt on Wednesday, to a bluegrass jam I co-host. I am obligated there. Not bound, but expected.
    We'll see closer in. Saturday might get us our traveling monk and Leprechaun as well.

    Saturday would work best for me, as well. Are there any Celtic Taverns we'd like to try out? Or does anyone else have a suggestion?

    I think Saturday the 9th works for me, should work for Gil, who's in Peachtree Hills. Maybe Leprechaun finally. I can
    get Leprechaun there, and probably will need to provide for Gil as well. Gil mentioned a pub in Buckhead, couldn't think
    of the name. Maybe Fado? He also remembers Cafe Sunflower, as well. A bit pricier than other spots, but nice, and
    quieter. Don't serve alcohol at the Sandy Springs location, do at the one on Peachtree near Piedmont Hospital, though
    likely not the choices you guys would prefer. I don't know Olde Blind Dog, but I know where it is.

    Ok, my kilted friends, we're coming up on the 9th. The Olde Blind Dog looks fun, or I'd be happy to meet at the Meehan's we met at on St Paddy's Day. I'm also open to other suggestions. Does anyone care what time of day? Would a lunch, dinner, or evening work better?

    Wareyin, I notice you are on the forum, so I'll say I'm making calls over the next few minutes to see who's in.

    Well, only got hold of Gil, he votes for lunch or early afternoon. Works for me; other voices? Olde Blind Dog
    I don't know, Meehan's didn't seem that amusing. May have had something to do with being packed to overflowing
    and more noise than jet engines. I'll check back with Leprechaun, and see if I can twist Jim's arm to get him into
    town. Kinda doubtful.

    I liked the Celtic vibe of Meehans, but wouldn't want to go there if the crowd and band would be there like the 17th.

    I appreciate you calling around. I was debating calling things off due to lack of interest.

    Hey, guys. Sorry I've been a bit distracted what with trying to get myself gainfully employed again.

    Lunch would work best for me, as well.

    I've enjoyed Meehans when it was quiet, but I agree that on St. Paddy's it was not the best place to be. Of course there may not have been a best place to be. There are a number of options around the North side of the Perimeter (which I'm assuming is centrally located for us all)


    • 5 Seasons Brewing Co.
    • Ship & Anchor
    • The Pub Perimeter
    • Dunwoody Tavern
    • The Brass Tap
