Lewis Barbecue Atlanta Grand Opening

From the venue:

Be the first to eat at the newest outpost of award-winning Texas-style Lewis Barbecue!

Lewis Barbecue, one of the nation’s most celebrated smokehouses, is bringing sinfully delicious flavors to a city that holds barbecue sacred. Lewis will fire up its newest location at the centrally located Ansley Mall, (1544 Piedmont Ave. NE, Atlanta, Unit 406). Guests can expect what critics have called “life-changing ‘cue,” served with honky-tonk tunes, ice-cold drinks, and laid-back Texas-style hospitality.

A grand opening and “rib pull” ceremony will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, December 8, 2025. It coincides with the debut of the new Beltline pedestrian bridge, creating a “bridge to barbecue” that directly connects the Northeast Trail to Lewis Barbecue Atlanta.  Grand Opening festivities will be held throughout the day until 9 pm.

A destination of smoky flavors, music and community with an open-air rooftop smokehouse, located next to The Cook's Warehouse.
