Cafe Circa
3.9 (1,439)restaurant
3.9 (1,439)A two-story Old Fourth Ward lounge with rooftop seating, fusion comfort food, and a weekly 21+ Friday house party.
Description
The main floor is ample, comfortable for about 100, and the rooftop holds a similar crowd. The lower bar has a 'dungeon feel,' while upstairs leans toward a lively college-party energy. Fridays bring the 21+ Atlanta House Party, with DJs mixing hip-hop, R&B, Afrobeats, and dancehall, plus VIP tables and bottle service. Food is described as straight or decent; drinks are strong, though some find the liquor pricey. Reviewers praise the pretty, polite staff and the DJ's good mix of 90s, trap, and hip-hop, but one visitor hit an off night: the AC off, and many seafood items and alcohols unavailable.
