Florida man to open sports bar on Eastside Beltline in the upcoming month

Next month, a new Gulf Coast-themed sports and dive bar called Floridaman will be opening on the second floor of Breaker Breaker on the Eastside Beltline. The bar is named after a persona commonly used in news headlines that has become a meme. This concept was inspired by the team’s own experiences growing up in Florida, where such bizarre incidents are a regular occurrence along the Gulf Coast.

The atmosphere at Floridaman will be reminiscent of Breaker Breaker’s vibe, but with a more tropical feel. The space will be decorated with patterned lounge furniture, artwork, and lighting installations, as well as tropical plants. Seating will overlook the Beltline, offering a unique view for guests to enjoy while they relax and unwind.

In terms of drinks, Floridaman will offer two potent frozen cocktails on tap, along with a beer and wine list and a selection of canned cocktails. The food menu will feature handheld items and dips that pair well with drinks. One of the signature dishes will be the Floridaman sandwich, a twist on the Tampa Cuban featuring roasted chicken, ham, salami, Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard, and mayonnaise.

The team behind Floridaman includes Alex Brounstein, Johnny Farrow, and Maximillian Hines, who are excited to bring a taste of Florida to Atlanta. The new bar will be located at 921 Wylie Street Southeast and promises to offer a fun and laid-back atmosphere for guests to enjoy on the Eastside Beltline.
