This place is huuuuge! Not sure they are getting all of this space but it's enormous. There is a bar restaurant area near the front. They have a full arcade with tons of games, mostly the interactive type (think driving a car instead of Mortal Kombat). Then there is another equally large area with pool tables and axe throwing. The food was pretty good. I had the brisket chili and it was tasty enough. The beer selection was a little weak and pricey (I know I'm downtown), but it was a good stop overall. Service behind the bar was impeccable. I would go back. read more

Order a flight of beer & anything with brisket on it. Was happily surprised at the quality of the food. Honorable mention to the coleslaw--we ordered two! read more

Fried pickles delicious Friendly bartender Clean and unique decor We are visiting from Tucson Arizona and we decided to walk around looking for a cool place to hang out. We walked right past this place and ended up at another bar where there was absolutely no variety. Walking back we stepped in to Skool. I'm so glad we did! read more

I stopped in for a beer before dinner on a Sunday early evening. Apparently just missed the Minnesota Vikings fan club watching a game on TV. It was a large open dining room with a bar on one wall, lots of huge TVs, and Viking decor. In a separate room in the back there are axe-throwing lanes. Our table had a tiny lamp, without which it would have been kind of dark. The menu had a whole page of beers, several IPA versions, some German and Czech styles, and a sour. I had the sour, and it was great. Also on the menu some typical bar food like appetizers, sandwiches, and so on. Items leaned in to to Viking/Minnesota theme such as the Nordic smoked fish spread and the Juicy Lucy sandwich. Although I didn't have food on this visit I am interested in returning for that option. read more

Pleasing ambiance. Several screens but not too loud to enjoy your meal. Attentive, helpful service. Delicious chicken sandwich. And, as you would expect, delicious beer. Close to downtown hotels (easy walking distance from Marriott, Hyatt, etc.). Very positive experience. read more

We walked here on a Wednesday night after leaving a book launch event at the Central Library. Yes you can also do axe throwing at this location so make it a dinner and an axe throw type of night. We ordered the bacon double cheeseburger and it was good. It was seasoned well and the patties were cooked excellently. My only complaint is the bun coverage. I'm sure this is a style of burger; however, it looks like they're trying to save on meat or ran out and just used the little bit they had left because the meat patties did not fit with the size of the bun so there were some bites of the sandwich that were only bread and lettuce because the meat patties are so small. The Brussel sprouts were good but lack any healthy nutritional value so don't enjoy them for that, enjoy them because they're well seasoned Brussel sprouts. The fries were skinny and great like I like em so no complaints there. I'd go back to this restaurant, just wouldn't order a burger. read more

Came in last month for a team outing with my company! We're located up the street, so we walked, but saw a parking garage right across the street for those driving! Upon arrival, we were greeted by the hostess and seated until the rest of our party joined and until another axe throwing bay opened up. Our waitress was very attentive to us and great about explaining everything and how the whole flow of the axe throwing worked. Plenty of tvs turned to various sports to watch and it was a good volume so we could make small talk as we sat down. Once we transitioned to our axe throwing bay, we had the pleasure of being instructed by the owner on different techniques and different games we could play. They even gave us white board and markers to keep score. During this whole time, our waitress didn't miss a beat in continuing our drink orders and getting us food! Food: we ordered fries, chicken tenders, the dip, and nachos for the table. Wouldn't recommend chicken tenders for a large group unless you get multiple servings. Food was decent, nothing to write home about! Drinks: I had espresso martinis, delicious. This was my first time axe throwing, so I was a bit apprehensive.. sharp objects.. throwing them? But it was honestly a whole lot of fun and didn't feel as dangerous as it looked! I really appreciated how personable the owner was in showing us the ropes and even giving us different objects to try throwing. Once I left, I texted all of my family and friends to encourage them on an axe throwing outing, lol. I'd 100% go back. Also, saw darts and a few other activities there as well! read more

This is a cool bar and restaurant located in downtown Atlanta. Lots of old wood styling throughout keeping a vintage look with a trendy feel. Staff were super quick and attentive to serve our large group. Good food choices. I was super impressed with their cheese curds. It brought back memories of the Wisconsin state fair. I was told they used cheese from Wisconsin in these. There was axe throwing and ping pong available in the massive back area of this place. Cool vibe, good atmosphere, and good drinks. read more

Stumbled upon this place walking around downtown after dinner, it was a little confusing finding the entrance since it's on the backside of the building but the main space is huge, dark and plush lounge furniture, lots of big screen tv's. They do have axe throwing too if that's something interesting for you. Looks like they had some other games such as pool in the back area of this place. Drinks were good & so was service! read more

Cool spot. Friendly bartenders. Great food! I would definitely return again! Next time, I might even try the axe throwing. :)

Sat at the bar, bartenders were mostly great. Good conversations. They took 2/3 drink orders almost immediately but it did take a while for me to order my drink. I was definitely expecting the place to be more themed, but it wasn't. And they did not have any merch on-site either. Smoked Brisket tacos (special) 10/10 WOW. These are absolutely amazing. Brisket is delicious. The bbq sauce was delicious, on the sweeter side I think and little bit smoky too. And the crema is so so good. The crispy onions in there just add the absolute perfect amount of crunch. I could eat these every single day. read more

Skol has only been open a few months but they are doing great work. We stopped in for dinner while downtown for a rock show. The space is huge, well staffed, and looks nice. We sat at the bar doing happy hour and OMG the happy hour specials are excellent. It was delicious food with great pricing. I started with the cheese curds. These were cooked as there are supposed to be in Wisconsin. Maybe could have used a little salt and I prefer marinara but to each his own. Chris had the Brussel sprouts and I was shocked at how good they were. Sometime you get them and they are kinda meh but not here! The fried pickles were good, and they are slices if you like those. The burger was very good, very meaty with plenty of veggie condiments to compliment the giant pile of delicious and crispy fries. We had a pitched of the brown ale which was maybe just a little too sweet but very good. Our bartender was very nice and helpful. A fellow who was a manager or owner came over to chat us up for a while and thank us for having out. These folks are friendly! If I lived in the city I would be hitting up Skol Brewing once a week at least for happy hour snacks and beer! read more

This place has potential!!! I came twice on my trip to Atlanta. I loved it was walking distance to my hotel. Beer was good, they only had two of their own brews. 1st trip sat at bar entertained by the bartender. The decor was on point. The axe throwing was fun, but definitely expensive. 2nd time Super slow wait staff, didn't get any service for almost 15 mins and it was pretty dead. We had food this time. It was tasteful! The brussel sprouts and the chili were delicious. Did not love the plastic silverware weirdly wrapped up in the napkin. Did not like the "bubble snow machine". read more

Good brews and food, well located. Their IPA are really good. The pulled pork sandwich is great

Really cool place l. Got to drink and play dangerous games...lol. Throwing axes was an absolute blast and got pretty competitive. The instructor was very helpful the entire time we were there. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area. The brisket sandwich was really good. But dont bother trying to cut it in half. It just falls apart and gets messier. The truffled Mac n cheese was really good, but small portions. It got cold quick too... The smoked old fashion was OK. I've had better, but still cool. Next time I'm getting beer. All in all, we had a great time and we'll worth the price! read more

Wow, excellent find in DT ATL! We tried to get in another bar (however, athleisure was not welcomed!) and stumbled on Skol. Lots of variety in brews, and they have an extensive food menu. Everyone was super friendly - shoutout to our server Bebe who was so fun to chat with!! The space is huge as it was a former Macys - and they have tons of event space. If we were local, this would definitely be one of our regular spots!!! read more

Been here two nights now. Both times packed, on a Sunday & Monday! Staff was busy but still super courteous and on the spot. It's loud so be aware of that. Burgers are good, Recommended the brisket plate. and the beer is phenomenal. I travel the country and have visited 100's of breweries. This one is a must go if you're in downtown ATL. read more

Stopped by early evening and was immediately impressed by the lively yet relaxed atmosphere. The space is open and inviting, with plenty of seating, large screens for sports, and a fun themed design that gives it a unique character. There's even a separate area for activities, which adds to the overall experience. The lighting at the table created a cozy vibe without feeling dim. The drink selection really stands out, offering a wide range of styles, including some less common options. Everything felt thoughtfully curated, and what I tried was excellent. The menu also looked appealing, with creative twists on familiar favorites. Definitely a spot worth coming back to for both drinks and food. read more

This brewery is located right in the center of downtown. Easily accessible and big enough to host plenty. Really enjoyed that they had different choices from a delicious recommended blueberry cider. Best parking is the paid garage right across the street. read more

Skol has finally opened in Downtown Atlanta! After teasing us with posters and IG stories for years, they finally opened in January 2025. My husband and I popped in for a beer while out for the night and were seated at the bar with an enthusiastic staff. The manager on duty walked us through what beers were actually on tap from their menu. They weren't fully operational because they had only opened in the last 2 weeks. I mentioned their cocktail looked delicious and they offered to make me it on the house. There was an uneven balance between bartenders and patrons, so they were happy to make a drink and chat for a few minutes. I can't remember the name of the drink, but it was gin-based with glitter and champagne. Boy, was it strong! My husband had to finish my beer while I sipped on that. Skol is attached to an axe-throwing spot next door, and has a large back room for parties and tons of board games. We will be bringing out monthly Saturday night drinking club here to test them out in the future. A great spot for a no-nonsense beer in downtown! read more

Great vibe, space, music and drinks including the beer I would definitely meet here after work or before a weekend outing. The fish fingers in the other hand were not so good. I believe the oil in the fryer was too hot. The breading which was a little thick was extra crispy on the outside but doughy on the inside and the fish not cooked. I sent it back and opted for the pulled pork sandwich. While the coleslaw was excellent the pork was salty. The manager Phil was pleasant. I sat at the bar, the last available seat. So the service was acceptable given that the bar was busy. I'd go back if in the neighborhood but only for drinks. Cheers read more

Tried a couple of their beers and a small snack. The drinks were good and the food paired well with them.

I'm torn on this review because it's a really cool place But... it's a little chaotic. We were here on a Saturday night and they were busy. We sat at one of the High top tables where you have to go up to the bar to order rather than waiting 25-30 for a table. My husband went to order our drinks and an appetizer. He came back with our drinks and a number for our food. We sat and drank and chatted and still no food, we waited longer and still nothing. After waiting over 30 minutes he went back up to the bar and canceled the order. Apparently they had made the order but no one could find our table. They were very nice about it and took the order of our bill as well as a discount. This place definitely had potential, just needs to reorganize. read more

Stopped in for a quick pre-dinner drink on a recent trip to ATL. They had Mead on the drink menu and I was curious - never had it before. Told the bartender, "I would like a Mead and I would like it to not suck!" He said, "I got you!" Came back with a delectable choice! We enjoyed our time there so much, we even ordered the cheese curds! Truly a great place! SKOL!!! read more

A Nordic-Inspired Brewery with Great Beer, Juicy Lucys & Ax Throwing! I was in town for a work conference and on the hunt for a good beer when I stumbled upon Skol Brewing. As a die-hard fan of a certain football team that chants "Skol," I had to check it out--and I'm beyond glad I did. The atmosphere is incredible, with a Nordic-inspired design featuring antler chandeliers and a massive forest-themed wall mural that makes you feel like you're in a Scandinavian lodge. Adding to the fun, if you look closely, you'll spot portraits of the owners dressed in Nordic-style attire--a cool, quirky touch that makes the space feel even more unique. The bartenders, Ryan and Preston, were beyond helpful. They didn't just pour drinks; they took the time to give me a complete menu breakdown, walking me through their top recommendations and what makes each beer special. You could tell they truly love what they do and take pride in the bar's offerings. When I confidently ordered the Uff-da Double IPA and pronounced it correctly, they were visibly impressed--and let's be honest, that's not an easy beer name for everyone to nail! It was a small but fun moment that made me feel right at home. Speaking of beer, the Uff-da Double IPA is a must-try. Bold, hoppy, and packed with flavor, it's exactly what you want in a double IPA. I also had the chance to chat with John, the bar manager, who was incredibly knowledgeable about the bar's origins and how Skol Brewing, which opened on January 9, came to be. Turns out, it's owned by Drew and Gary, two Minnesota natives, which explains why this place feels like a slice of home. But the surprises didn't stop at the beer. They serve a Minnesota favorite--the Juicy Lucy! If you don't know, it's a burger stuffed with melted cheddar cheese, and this one was absolutely fantastic--one bite, and I was transported straight back home to Minnesota. And just when I thought it couldn't get better, I discovered they have ax throwing! Meghan was awesome, letting me try five free throws, and I have to say--my knife-throwing needs some serious work... but the throwing stars? Piece of cake and insanely fun. If you're feeling adventurous, you can throw knives, axes, and stars for an extra charge, and it's 100% worth it. And if you're a Minnesota Vikings fan, this place is a must-visit during football season. They host watch parties, and every time the Vikings score a touchdown, it actually SNOWS inside the bar. I know, it sounds wild--it's probably a foam machine--but either way, it's an awesome touch that makes game days even more fun. Bottom line: Skol Brewing isn't just a bar--it's an experience. Great beer, amazing food, fun activities, and a killer atmosphere. Whether you're in Atlanta for a weekend or live nearby, this place is a must-visit--especially if you love good beer, Vikings football, and a little Nordic flair. read more

Was visiting Atlanta in November for a conference and did my typical Yelp search for a local brewery. I was visiting from the Pacific Northwest and looking for a good IPA. I had no issue finding something delicious to drink, not to mention I had our hard time picking between two that were exceptional. The food was also great having tried the smoked brisket sandwich. The staff were also super kind and welding coming. Highly recommended. read more

Pretty cool newly opened place. Really like the ambiance and food was really good. Just need to work on a few things. With this good of food, can I have real silverware to eat with instead of plastic ware. This is advertised as a brewery. They only had 2 of their beers on the menu...and the one they were out of! Had 6 other local brew on the menu...and they were out of at least one of those too. Need to have more than 5 or 6 beers on tap to really be a "brewery" in my mind. Otherwise, great place and a lot of potential. read more

I've been wanting to go back to Skol Brewing since they officially opened. I attended a soft opening and loved it. The food, service and decor did not disappoint. Lynix was our server and he was absolutely amazing. He was so attentive, helpful, and had such a great personality. I came with a large party and we ordered a variety of food and drinks. For apps, we ordered the onion rings, roasted brussel sprouts, giant soft pretzels and the smoked wings. For entrees, a good amount of us ordered the Berserker burger. While the rest ordered the Juicy Lucy, chicken tenders and the Viking Club Sandwich. For cocktails, a few people order an old fashioned while the rest of us ordered the hard cider. The grumpy granny was the crowd favorite. Everything came out hot and fresh. For dessert, we all wanted to order the ice cream sandwich, but they were out of the flavors we wanted, so we settled for the vanilla creme brûlée. Surprisingly, it was better than we expected but I will definitely be back for an ice cream sandwich. Preferably, a cookies and cream , confetti or sugar cookie ice cream sandwich. If you're, looking for good food and fellowship, check out Skol, you won't be disappointed! read more

Wow! SKOL Brewery was amazing! My wife and I visited Atlanta for her bday weekend. We are Vikings season ticket holders so we couldn't miss the game. We saw on the Vikings fan page Skol Brewery was a place to watch the game. September 14 against the 49ers was a big match up to see where the Vikings stand in the 2024 season. The atmosphere was second to none! We've been to multiple cities for vacation and have watched games with Vikings fans throughout the country. Skol brewery has it all. Awesome food! Awesome beer and ciders! Fans were awesome! Our favorite was the fake snow that falls between scores! Just like the pregame at US Bank Stadium. They have a DJ that plays chants and music during commercials to keep the party going. One of the host walked around with name tags to help show your hometown. This is very helpful and cool to see which part of MN you represent. A super fan walked in with full fan gear. He had horns, lights, and a drum to hype up the crowd. Every first down he was on it! This place should be and deserves to be packed every Vikings game. I hope this review helps. Nothing but love from MN! Thanks ATL! read more
