So I went here for a trap brunch this past weekend and I have no complaints! We love a good brunch with bottomless mimosas. I got the steak and eggs and my friend got the chicken and waffles. Prices are reasonable and the shots weren't too bad either. But back to the food- steak with topped with this bomb sauce and I was able to add peppers to my eggs. The place is very cute too! I would definitely do this again! Also a small area outdoors if you need a smoke break. read more

The menu was small for a brunch spot but I really appreciated it - it meant everything we had was delicious and executed very well. Coffee, tea, and mimosas available for drinks. The service was attentive but not overbearing and I really loved the space. I had the chicken and waffles, lightly dusted with powdered sugar, adorned with fresh berries, and a side of potatoes which had the perfect crisp and saltiness. read more

Highly recommend, live jazz music was definitely a vibe in the brunch setting. The food was spectacular, this was my first time eating blue grits and was skeptical at first but I am so glad that I tried! The fish and grits was a solid 10 out of 10. Overall everything was great, waiters were very knowledgeable of the menu and helpful with indecisive ordering. I'll be back. read more

traveled to ATL for a day trip, so glad we picked this place as a stop!! the ambience is perfect for a brunch day with the kindest hostess and server. live entertainment--the singer of the day (wore a blue cap and sunglasses, i didnt catch his name) had a lovely energy and stage presence, made brunch so much more fun! long wait for our food though, it was a bit busy that day but the server said it was taking the kitchen a bit longer to cook the salmon. we didnt mind though because the brunch vibes were great. salmon mac and cheese was amazing!! salmon was cooked so deliciously and had a great lemony taste. the mac was to die for and the spinach was a great addition. the server just asked me offhand if i wanted my dish with sauteed spinach or brussel sprouts, and i mistakenly thought it came with the dish until i got the check back and it was an additional $6. so be careful of that! had a bit of my sister's chilaquiles, which were also DELICIOUS !! the drinks were great too :) super yummy! service was also really good! even though there was a bit of a longer wait, they were really sweet about the whole thing. we were also able to get seated right away by the window. read more

I attended this business for the first time during their open mic night. The host was entertaining and the band was talented. Overall, I had a good experience. The food was fresh and tasty but took a bit longer than I'd prefer to wait and I'm pretty patient. The drinks were more juice than alcohol, which would be my only real critique. The chicken was fried to perfection and the sides were pretty darn good. Our server was patient and attentive. I will return and highly recommend. read more

This place is full of potential, a local eatery with a music, poetry, and art vibe. At the table we had four entrees, the southern style fried chicken with mashed potatoes and brussels sprouts, the chicken was great but the brussels sprouts stole the show. The salmon on the salmon plate was well seasoned but cooked a little too much, it came with Mac n cheese. The pork chop dinner was enjoyed as well as the Apache burger. The restaurant was short staffed, it felt like our waitress was the only person providing service outside of the two bartenders. The impact was noticed, but when Zarea was came over she was great. The location is on a side street off of Ivan Allen, no visible parking to speak of but within a few minutes walking to several hotels. The venue itself had a very cool ambiance, exposed brick walls with lots of art on the wall. read more

This is my response to the owner.... My wife and I left during intermission because the show was not the erotic experience we thought it would be. As for the drink, there was definitely more than 2oz. of alcohol making the drink too strong. I only asked for more tea but the chef volunteered to take the drink back. We'd been at your venue at opening (9pm) and was the 3rd couple seated, so we did give the event time (left at 11:15 or so). Also, when the waitress addressed my initial post, she asked about making the experience better, but I was not addressed when my wife told her I was the "Eliter". Crediting the admissions was not an option we asked for or even wanted. Seated in the back for first come, first serve seating was not fair as we were third in line. As a Yelp Elite, I shouldn't feel attacked because my experience of the show you put on, wasn't to my liking. Thank you for responding but we will not visit your establishment again and I hope others read my review and act accordingly. Too bad no one can see your original response. read more

Without question, this was my favorite meal experience in Atlanta when comparing it to all the other restaurants I went to. My order: Salmon Mac & Cheese: I could not decide between this or the Hong Kong French Toast. These tow items are complete and total opposites and I really could not decide which one I wanted more. When the waitress came back to my table, I explained to her my current dilemma. It was then concluded that the salmon mac & cheese was the better choice because it would be more filling from the protein and carbs. It was the right choice. The salmon fillet was perfectly cooked. It was juicy and seasoned right and savory. The mac & cheese was the best I have ever had (from both home cooked and from other restaurants)! The mac & cheese was creamy, cheesy, and baked to delicious perfection. It's cheesiness was consistent all the way through. I loved this dish so much that if I go on another trip to Atlanta in the future, I would make it a point to come here again. But next time it will not be just for the salmon mac & cheese; next time I would indulge in the Hong Kong French Toast (and possibly other tasty foods on t menu). When searching online for restaurants near me, this actually appeared as Blackbird on Google. Furthermore, here on Yelp, it shows Apache Café while Google also shows Apache XLR. When I entered, the waitress said, "Welcome to Apache XLR". Moreover, the menu in the restaurant was titled Apace XLR. The owners/management team here should make it a point to clear up the name of this restaurant online and in house so that it does not create any further confusion. The names across all mediums should be consistent. read more

History

Established in 2001.

The owners opened Apache Café for lunch at 11:00am on Monday April 9th 2001. Having spent the entire night awake in order to finish café recipes, they served just one table that day. With borrowed art on the walls and jazz music in the background they dreamed to create a place of creative freedom where great music, delicious food, and bold art could live. Open seven nights a week and serving a diverse group of patrons, Apache Café offers an intimate café, gallery, and venue with exposed brick walls and a loft-like style. As a restaurant café, Apache serves house made southwestern, Latin, and Caribbean inspired fare along with a full premium spirits bar, coffee bar, and dessert menu. As a gallery, you view artwork from a wide range of local and visiting traveling artists. As a venue, you will find presentations on everything from think-tank type discussion forums to world-class music ensembles. Come join us today!

Meet the Manager: Ray G.

Ray has over 10 years experience in hospitality, management, food and beverage, and event programming. She is focused on making sure your experience is great.

Ask the Community - ApacheXLR

Does this place have parking availablity?

There are parking lots available all around the venue. About $20

Is there live music on Saturday's for brunch?

There wasn't when I was there on a Saturday afternoon a few months ago, although I did enjoy the soundtrack on the speakers. I can't remember for sure if I saw musicians setting up or leaving as we arrived or left.

Does this place accept Apple Pay?

yes they do!

Is open mic also for comedians?

I would say it depends on the night. But in my experience there were a range of talents...singing, rapping, comedy...

How are Saturday nights?

They are really nice, and it get crowded very fast. So I suggest you get there on time if you want a table, because after 9:00pm it's literally wall to wall. They always have a live band and people performing so make sure you keep up with the… Read more

Anything going on wednesday nights?

Yes they have jam sessions.

What's the vibe like for Friday/Saturday? Dress attire?

You can dress down in something comfortable or dress up if you'll like. It's not a dress code and you can always come as you are no matter what day you go.

View 1 more answer

How can a table be pre- purchased for a group? The eventbrite only gives option for seating of 2. What's the minimum guest have to spend at table?

You may want to call first, because the tables usually go fast. If you get there early you can get a table of 4, and I don't think there is a minimum. I've never had to pay a minimum and I've been going there over 5 years now.

What's the best night for dancing?

Honestly I don't think this is a dance type place. I don't recall seeing a dance floor. But if you like live rnb and soul Wednesday is a great night to go.

My friend is a member and she asked me to be her plus one for Friday Night Music Remix at the High. I first attended the event a couple years ago with friends from out of town and was happy to return. By the time we got there, the jazz band was playing and all of the tables were occupied. There was only seating for about 100 and there were more people standing than sitting. After a few minutes we went upstairs to walk through the exhibits to a soundtrack of jazz. I really like the concept--enjoying music, sipping drinks and exploring the art exhibits. It's a very diverse crowd too in terms of race and age...20-somethings to 60-somethings...tourists...groups of friends...and people on dates. Some are there for the jazz and art; others seem more into the cocktails. The dress code is all over the spectrum from sophisticated to casual. Men wear things like polo shirts and khakis or button downs and jeans. Ladies wore everything from jeans, cardigans & heels to maxi dresses & sandals. My one criticism is about the lighting. I wish they would add mood lighting or at least dim the existing lights, something to make the large space feel more intimate. I know it's not a nightclub but I associate live music with low lighting, not high watt bulbs. Other than that it was a nice event and I plan to return in the next month or two.

Dancing is encouraged:)

Sign up and save $10 on the cover at the door. They seat you and servers provide menus for food and drinks. We had the grilled shrimp, others had pizza and light bites. The Texas margaritas were delicious and served strong. The talent was engaging and ranged from poets to singers. Overall, I'd definitely come back and check ahead to see who's performing. With the parking and cover, you invest some cash before you're entertained.

My boyfriend surprised me with a date night here! Parking is on the side of the building, valet…read moreonly but it's only $5. Inside is definitely a small and cozy experience! Good amount of seating that gives off a family basement kind of vibe. I'll start with the con: the service here was subpar. We sat in the overflow area and there were tables all around us. The two servers that we saw in the area repeatedly NEVER came to our table to greet us or take our order. My boyfriend ended up having to walk himself to the bar to get a drink and order some food for us. Even once the food came I had to flag her down to get another drink. We were not hidden or hard to see, so that was very disappointing. The comedy show was really good. The comedians were fun and funny. Each one's personality was so different and big and we laughed the whole night. Although good service is huge to me, I'd come back and give it another try because overall I really enjoyed the scene.

You'll go through security and come in and it's pretty much a dive bar with really good vibes. They have R&B, jazz, blues, lot of different myriads of music types. So it may not look like it, but it's actually a really good spot. I would say you could go and use this to kick it and take a date or a double date situation. There. You could get some drinks, listen to some music, play some pool, it's all good. Now they don't have food like that, but there's a food truck outside and the food truck is actually pretty decent. I'm not going to lie, those wings were actually pretty good. But don't expect this spot to have food on the inside. I've been going in and out here for years so I don't have anything bad to say necessarily. Pick the night you want to go, and go on that night because it's going to be a lot of fun if you pick the right vibe and music you're looking for.

I sat down at the bar at 9:04pm, and placed my order for the seafood gumbo, highly recommended by the hostess (who had the personality of a bumper sticker). I looked around the place. The live band was decent. Not terrible, but definitely not good enough for me to watch. Then I waited. And waited. Thankfully, I was able to doom scroll TikTok, because my food didn't arrive till 9:52pm- the place closes at 10pm! There were 4 customers at the bar (which seats 10), and one of the other patrons sitting near me clearly was annoyed that his take-out order was taking just as long. Do yourself a favor. Do NOT come here. The food itself tasted like microwaved leftovers, and was less than luke warm..... like my son's diaper 12 minutes after he pee'd in it. The bartender was nice, but even she apologized for the long wait. Yeah.... don't do it. Stay in your hotel with Lunchables and root beer.

Our server was so professional and let us know about the Girl Dinner on Thursdays too. We enjoyed our sandwiches, little desserts, and scones.

We sat down and were provided water and I asked for a purse holder and the waitress was able to locate one for me. We received our menus and if you're in to a French style menu, this is the place for you. I had the avocado tartine (toast), and others in my party had the eggs Benedict, the crepe; and pancakes. Two of us also ordered a mimosa. Because it was my aunts birthdays, they were given a small treat. It's quiet and very cute ambiance and lighting. They have tea time from 1-4pm which I will definitely be back for. ***I gave this place a 4 only because the menu was sort of limited from what I had known to be a buffet style brunch and I think, to me, I needed a little more seasoning.***

The building decor and design in itself is a treat--in an artsy and historical style--but the sound system in that hall was on fire! The line outside wasn't terrible, and the staff and security were all very respectful and laid back. No drama. Fair warning, they let me in with my mini-backpack but tossed any snacks I had in it. No biggie! So, if you find yourself touring around Centennial Park and want to catch a show, it's not too hard. The main floor allows for the party to really happen, but only for those who can endure standing for hours at a time as it's standing only. There's a floor level for VIPs, which I bet was totally worth the money. We sat up in the balcony, so we could sit and see it all. Whew! The seats are very snug! I'm only 5'3", and it was a squeeze for my legs. My 6'1" hubby said he was ok, but his legs were open the entire show to fit. On that note, be prepared for LOTS of stairs! Drinks were tasty and made well. My pizza wasn't exceptional in any way, but it was edible for bar food. And really, the bartenders were all friendly and patient. Just a cool night altogether. Great experience for a small-venue show on a date, with girlfriends, or a big group of fans alike! We saw James Blake, and the only issue I had was the bright flashing lights. I had to squint by the end of the show. But it didn't seem to bother the other thousand in the hall.
