Poncey-Highland is getting a new brewery/restaurant, and it may happen as soon as the end of this month. It’s called New Realm Brewing, and chef Julio Delgado, formerly of JP Atlanta, will lead the kitchen while former Stone Brewing brewmaster Mitch Steele works the tanks. Expect hearty dishes like beer can chicken, brioche burgers, and wood fire pizzas served on multiple Beltline-adjacent patios and even a rooftop. The brewery will produce up to 20,000 barrels at a time.

The Public House in Roswell’s historic square is closing this Sun., Dec. 10 after one last brunch service. Open since 1976, when it was called Peasant Restaurant, the restaurant has had many names over the years but most recently operated under J. Christopher’s as the Public House.

Just in time for this cold snap, Tin Drum locations have four new comforting bowls. Two ramen bowls, one steak and one chicken include and egg. Two chicken curries- spicy green Thai or sweet potato Thai-are chock full of veggies.

Morningside’s Whiskey Bird has entered the Atlanta brunch game. We’re seriously intrigued by weekend brunch menu items like Hong Kong bubble waffles, bao benedict, and avocado egg salad toast.

Happy birthday, PCM!
