Pretty big fan of this place on Friday night, but still a fan on other nights as well. They always have a cover, & the beer is a tad pricey, but the atmosphere is worth it.
Friday night is when they play the music & Saturday night is the live band. So each weekend night, expect to slosh around on the dance floor, spilling your drink in the process.
The place is always packed, & the crowd seems made up of recent college grads/young professionals. It kind of brings back a college type atmosphere back for me, just with louder music & better dressed patrons. Everyone always seems to let loose at Buckhead and the music usually keeps everyone going till 2.
The bar is pretty big, so getting a beverage usually doesn't take too long. And there is a nice outside area to get some fresh air from time to time.
Buckhead is always a fun time, especially on Friday nights, & you'll be around people thoroughly enjoying themselves...and sloshing drinks on the dance floor.
