I'm glad I didn't go by the negative reviews and miss this place! It was great food! We came for brunch and got eggs Benedict with crab. 4 dollar mimosas for brunch. A bloody Mary Bar. Food server Melissa was awesome! The food was fresh and tasty. Looking forward to coming back and checking out night life. They are open on Sunday. We were here Sunday and brunch is served until 4 p.m read more

See all

Great staff. Didn't intend to be here long, but stuck around for trivia and we had a blast! read more

Whistle Post Tavern - French Dip and onion rings - Music Venues Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

I cannot possibly say enough good things about this place! They went so far above and beyond what is typically expected from an establishment I will recommend them to any and everyone I know. This review is somewhat lengthy but please read because this is service that is unheard of nowadays! Long story short, I live about an hour north of Atlanta and I have a very good friend who lives in Conyers and is struggling with very serious health issues that keep him in and out of the hospital. His most recent visit was to Piedmont Rockdale and as much as I wanted to come visit him I just didn't have the time, so I wanted to get him his favorite meal to give him some comfort. He told me his favorite meal is the Greek Feta Burger from Whistle Post Tavern, which is amazing from what I hear. I told him I would have Grub Hub or Uber Eats deliver it and I'd call him back with an estimated delivery time. I checked online and found that neither business delivers for Whistle Stop Tavern so I called the bar directly, hoping that they might offer some kind of in-house delivery service. I spoke with Misty, the incredibly professional and charming bartender, and she said that unfortunately they don't deliver. At this point, I told her briefly what my friend is going through and that the hospital was close by and explained that it is his favorite meal and he goes there all the time. Misty then said, "I wonder if it's one of my regulars who always comes here and gets the Greek feta burger?" I proceeded to describe him (he is a very tall and charming guy so he's hard to miss) and she immediately said, "Oh my God! That's him. He's so sweet!" I then asked, against all reason and normal expectations, if they might be gracious enough to make an exception and bring him the food given the circumstances. She said very politely that she could talk to the owner, Linda, but they were a bit short staffed and couldn't make any promises, which was absolutely fair and reasonable. She put me on hold and I waited patiently. A few moments later she came back on the phone and told me that she couldn't promise a delivery time but that they would find some way to get it to him before 5 the same day!!! What a blessing and what an incredible way to show love and concern for your patrons. I am still so taken aback by this I can't say enough!!!! If you ever are lucky enough to be in the area and are looking for a restaurant or bar, do yourself a favor and go have some delicious food and drinks at a business that has such a big heart and truly cares about people. Hopefully you will get the chance to meet Misty, the bartender extraordinaire and/or Linda, the owner. Do me a favor and shake their hand and tell them about this story because these are the best kind of people you could hope to take care of you. #whistlestoppatronforlife #otherbusinessestakenotes #blessed #grateful read more

What is it about a medium rare burger that bar chefs don't get. Yep, it happened again, a very well done burger. Ordered steamed veggies and we were through eating before they ever came out. In their defense though, my burger was comped. Tried again. Server was clearly not having a good day. But when she dropped the f*bomb 3 different times...needless to say, manager came over and bought us a beer. woop-de-doo. read more

Wonderful place! Like Cheers but better. Great bar and amazing owner! Our food was delicious and even the kids loved it! Great service! A new favorite! read more

Our server Terrell is the best! Always smiling, friendly, and takes special care of his customers! He's the best waiter we've ever had. The food is good & they have some good live music too. read more

We tried this place for the first time on Saturday. The food Was delicious. I had country fried steak mac and cheese, and those hush puppies were amazing. Will be back to try the brunch menu. read more

My go-to spot in Conyers. The waitress who usually serves me is so nice and their pimento cheese burger is the TRUTH. Super clean and good atmosphere read more

Save your time and money and run somewhere else for a real meal served with respect for all and kindness. I refuse to pay to be disrespected, I can get that for free. read more

Totally met my wife here. Came in for a beer, started talking with a girl that was dating a friend of mine and she introduced us. Love it!! read more

Whistle Post Tavern - Angry Orchard draft. - Music Venues Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

When one advertises "Brunch" there's a small expectation of good, fresh food made that day....not the leftovers from the brawl on the night before. Today was the Official Understaff and UnderClean everything day. The two gals working were in the weeds on menu items with expectations of busing and wiping the tables from the brunch trade....good lord, I hope the mess on the table was just from the morning. The price for the "reuben" was a price that topped a good reuben tab in downtown Atlanta. Having to ask for the greased up fries was akin to asking for the rice paper sheath to go along with the Hiri Kiri blade....perfunctory yes, necessary for evisceration...not so much. The griddle had the taste of January 2009 on it as the deli thin homogenized meat product was warmed up there along with a little lard-o on toast to scorch on the same surface. My bride's hamburger...another high price for the production...was scorched and 30 minutes late after serving my Reuben. In looking at the other reviews....perhaps there's a clue to be found here in Old Towne Conyers...if you serve crummy food, people will write "crummy things" about your restaurant. The place has the potential for a good place to service the restaurant challenged community if you would hire proficient cooks, wait and bus staff that aren't in crisis mode at all times. Between the service; the lost workers; the untidy cooking area and high price and truly poor food qualify, it's difficult not to spend a couple hundred more words on the Whistle Post Tavern...but there's a scoop (a big scoop) of sorbet calling me to calm down my gastro-tract. Save yourselves!! read more

I'm indifferent to this place. went for a drink and food was not particularly impressed with either, the decor is old enough to be chic or a dive bar just old enough to be tired. The location is a strong indication of what the place can be, a real thinking mans pub with history shared across the bar and a variety of reds and blues, lawyers and the accused can have a brew. Until it has a personality I'm indifferent. read more

Went there because my daughter said they had good lunch menu. Very bad experience. Roaches started coming in and out of the wood paneling in the front wall at our table and just wondering all around the wall. These were full grown roaches. When we showed the waitress she stood there while my daughter killed one of them. She said "it looks like it's time to have them back out to spray again. We have to have them out every month or so." It sounded like it was a normal occurrence with them. I hope I didn't swallow anything that was crawling around in the kitchen. Then if that wasn't bad enough a lady brought a dog into the establishment in a baby stroller. I will never visit this place again and will make sure everyone I know hears about this place. Bugs and dogs. A bad situation all the way around. read more

This is a dump that serves horrible food. I'm not going to spend much time reviewing this.......place. It does not deserve a star. You will be disappointed! read more

Ordered fish sandwich and pimento cheese burger. Fish was good, burger was nearly RAW and NO pimento cheese. Delivery so not much I can do.

Met some friends for lunch today. Kayla sat us and was our waitress. She was super nice and attentive. I tried the oyster which was very flavorful and the fish and chips. The fish was grouper. It was so good I ordered a plate to go. Best hush puppies I've had since moms and I even enjoyed the Cole slaw. I might return for dinner. If not I'll return soon. Hidden jewel in Conyers. read more

Whistle Post Tavern - Music Venues Near Me - Conyers, Georgia

Wasn't impressed...at all. All around a bad experience! Maybe that's why I've only eaten here twice now and it's been years between the two times. All the food was bland. The burger (ended up being an open face sandwich on Texas toast), chili, onion rings, fries, chicken tenders...all no flavor. The kids tenders were slightly burnt and when my 5 year old mentioned the "black spots" the waitress just said, "well the good stuff is on the inside". Not a proper response to burnt food. One of the two kids meals didn't include fries. Really? The ond had more than my burger came with. The waitress later came by and ask if the child that didn't get fries would like some...she jokingly said she'd like more of the shrimp. So waitress brought out more shrimp... undercooked shrimp. Then asked her to try them and see if they were cooked enough. You're asking a child to see if shrimp are actually cooked? The child refused and the waitress picked them up and said she'd have them.placed back in the fryer...we never saw the extra shrimp again. Also, kid meals don't include drinks and are priced at the same as regular drink. And this was at noon on a Friday while we were only 1 of 4 tables there at the time... Again, not impressed and won't be back. read more

The food suck. Service was subpar. I wasn't impressed at all I had high hopes but I was disappointed.

it's a nice pub in old town but the prices are way to high for what it is. I did enjoy the free shits when a train passed by.

I absolutely love this place. My family & I probably come 2-3 x a month. Last time we came we had a sever named Brittany, she was new & she was amazing. We had our young girls with us & she was so great with them! Thank you for your service!! read more

I don't understand why this place has such a low rating. The food and service was really good. I like the Bloody Mary bar! Free shots when the train goes by. I will definitely come back. read more

Not clean. Roach problem, one tried joining us for brunch right up on table begging for left overs. Please find better exterminator. Food is decent. read more

I don't think the previous reviewer and I went to the same restaurant. This is one of my favorite places in Conyers. It's local, unique, and offers plenty of menu options. They are located right next to the train tracks, and whenever a train goes by, they hand out free shots. They often have live music on weekend nights. Maybe restaurants closer to the city have better food, but you can't beat the small-town atmosphere here. read more

I wish i could give a fraction of a star to this place. Went to this place a couple of times. Every time found a very rowdy crowd of young thugs inside who apparently were friends of the staff or the band. Needless to say it was difficult to have a good time. When you don't feel safe. Wish my experience was better. But I tell everyone who asks about my experiences. Save them the drama. read more

My mother and I live here in conyers and have always wanted to eat at the tavern (I was under 21 previously so we never went) now that I'm 22 my sister came to visit and she, my mother and I finally stopped by to have a meal and maybe a few drinks. We walk in and no one is there to greet us, instead there's a sign saying "Seat Yourself", that wasn't an issue at all. When we sat down at a Booth in the middle of the tavern we saw how empty it was inside. Not much staff and barley and customers. I watched as the tables around us all got served but no one came to our table at all! We weren't even offered water! I kept waving for staff to come over but they told us "be there in a minute". My sister, playing the role of an ameture food critic, set a timer on her phone and we waiting until it counted down from 30 minutes to zero minutes and still no one came to us. I was the first to get up and walk out of the door and my sister left a note on the table for staff to find later. Never. Ever. Going. Back. read more

This is the coolest place in Conyers - and wait for the train to go by, blow its whistle and get your free shot! Great food selection, great people, cold beer and great mixed drinks. Can't go wrong with the entertainment - and - they pour a GREAT Black & Tan! Love you guys read more

Went for brunch and based on reviews I read was not surprised. Food was actually very good and the Bloody Mary was excellent! Biggest drawback is the service. Took 15 minutes to clean a table for us and 45+ minutes for the food to arrive after ordering. I usually give the benefit of the doubt but they were not really busy. So, in short, great place if you are not in a rush. Not a good place if you are ready to eat. Regardless, this being the only close place to us that serves Eggs Benedict of any variety we will be back. read more

First time trying this place and I really enjoyed it. The Thursday $7 burger was one of the best burgers I've had in a while. The fries were a different style than I prefer, but still got the job done. Our waitress was friendly and there was very little waiting involved. I like the small-town bar atmosphere, but it's an added bonus that the place was clean and not too cluttered up. I will definitely be back to try out more of the menu, especially for Sunday brunch. read more

Stopped in for lunch and was told by a friend with us, that the portions are large. Wife and I split a Reuben and the advice was "on point". Half a portion was just right and the sandwich was very good. Always looking for a Wednesday night spot to eat and this will definitely be an option on Wednesday's. read more

Possibly the worst lunch I've ever had. How do you screw up a salad. Chicken was incinerated Got Texas toast with a nice patch of mold. Waitress was great! read more

Good food & service. Had burgers, chicken parm & salmon entrees with the fried pickles appy. Restaurant was clean...will definitely return in the future. read more

We had our family reunion at Lake Capri and went to the whistle Post about 8pm for drinks and Dj night. It was great music, food, and drinks. This is a place that we now frequent. It has great friendly patrons and gives you that feeling of peace, refreshing times and wholesome fun. read more

Crab cakes were a very good light lunch. Tots are a welcome treat although the fries are very good. Burger is excellent! Reasonable lunch prices in a nice setting in Conyers! read more

If you want a really good burger, this is the place. Their hand cut french fries cannot be beat. There is always a burger special on Thursdays. Had lunch today and it was awesome....so was the service. read more

This is by far my favorite place to go when I am visiting Conyers. Great food and very friendly service Lori in Illinois read more

Where do I start? I've eaten here probably five times and each time it was an absolute joke. I'll never forget the first experience. I ordered shrimp bisque and was served a soup bowl of queso dip with three and a half small shrimp in it! With a name like Whistle Post one would think that they would serve good Southern food. Not the case. Their fried chicken, while not too bad, is served with what is obviously commercially produced brown gravy from a mix or a jar, and awful. The last time I was in there, which will be the last time, I ordered chicken fingers and was served the most laughably measly portion of just-this-side-of-burnt chicken fingers that I refused the plate, sending it back with a "No, thanks." I wish I could attach a picture of this plate. You would not believe it. Go for drinks but be warned you will be served carefully measured, not generous, pours. Skip the trivia run by a know-it-all type who asks impossible questions (I often win trivia all by myself so my knowledge of trivia is not the problem. This guy's ego and sour personality is the problem.) They do have decent bands but eat elsewhere first! read more

Like every restaurant in Rockdale, the Whistle Post is a sad attempt at a restaurant. When I first moved back to Georgia after six years, this would be part of our weekly bar crawl through Old Town. Being a huge fan of beer and the fact that I despise all things Budweiser, Miller, etcetera they did have a large selection of import and micro beers. The last time I was there a year ago, the beer selection was limited and what beers they had were crap. I have taken my parents to brunch at the Whistle Post twice and the last time we went, my mother told me she would disown me if I ever brought her back. The waitresses are friendly and it doesn't hurt that they are (or were at the time) attractive. I have a useless-as-a-career culinary arts degree and thought the brunch menu looked promising. Unfortunately what we were served on both occasions was just awful. The pancakes were always extremely undercooked in the center. My eggs over medium should have had Goodyear stamped on the yolk. I can't remember what I ordered that came with hollandaise, but the sauce was cold, broken, and bland (and I'm almost certain I became I'll from being undercooked). The handful of times I've eaten there for brunch there haven't been that many patrons in the dining room, but it would always seemed like it took forever and a day for our meal to arrive. Also, it would usually arrive at various intervals and most items would be cold. It is a shame this place went from sugar to 5h!t because Conyers needs more independent restaurants. I despise chains. But the only way I can expect to find better restaurants is to move out of this rapidly deteriorating county. Get a good look at how Clayton county is now because that will be Rockdale's fate in the next five to ten years. read more

So much potential wasted at this lackluster restaurant. I really WANT to like this place but have simply had too many incidents of poor service and substandard fare to go back. Lunch or dinner weekend or weekday, it's just doesn't come together here. read more
