Tin Lizzy's Now Open in Grant Park

Tin Lizzy's Taqueria and Cantina, a locally-established neighborhood restaurant and bar, has opened its second location in Grant Park.

The new location will inherit the original menu items, including gourmet soft tacos, a variety of dips and fresh salads, as well as the restaurant’s extensive margarita list, signature cocktails and more than 30 beer selections. Guests will experience the same converted grocery store layout along with the legendary outdoor patio that offers a commanding view of Atlanta's skyline and overlooks the impressive Oakland Cemetery in Grant Park.

The bottom floor of Tin Lizzy’s will boast more than 1,500 square feet of dining space in a relaxed setting with seven high-definition televisions and a full bar. Patrons can also choose to sit on the 500-square-foot outdoor patio, which offers a stimulating dining experience facing the Oakland Cemetery. Tin Lizzy’s plans to expand the patio in spring 2009 to include more seating, another full-service bar and a restroom.

Located at 412 Memorial Dr., Tin Lizzy’s in Grant Park sits across from the historic Oakland Cemetery. Tin Lizzy’s will be open on Sunday and Monday, 11 a.m. – midnight, and Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. - 2 a.m., serving food until 11 p.m. nightly. Brunch is served Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. - 2:30 p.m. All major credit cards are accepted. No reservations.

Lamplighter Cafe Still Open

The owners of the Lamplighter Cafe near Grant Park want you to know they are still open for business. Many motorists have wrongly assumed the cafe closed because the usual sandwich board signs have disappeared. That's because the city made owner Erick Newman remove them for violations, and Newman said business has been off by 70 percent ever since. 

Lamplighter, 280 Connally St., serves up contemporary cuisine, with lots of deserts, pastries, wine and coffee.

Six Feet Under Moves This Fall

Grant Park favorite, Six Feet Under, is moving one block away to the Jane Building, which is currently being renovated. The new address will be 437 Memorial Drive. The Jane was built in the 1920s and used as an elevator factory. The owners say they plan to give the new space the same look as the old, and you'll still be able to sip a cold one on the roof overlooking Oakland Cemetery.
