When it comes to the best place to snag a cocktail, people have strong opinions. And there are a variety of factors at play. Beyond the creativity and strength of a drink, walkability and atmosphere certainly factor in.
But, on lists that rank the best in every state, only one place can be victorious. A new roundup from the Daily Meal, a foodie website, determined the best cocktail bar from sea to shining sea.
To do so, the site looked at national bar rankings and looked at menus for “innovative concoctions.” They also considered industry awards and accolades. The focus was strictly on the best cocktails in class. While some places on the list do serve food, that was not considered.
“The primary focus of the bars on this list is providing the highest-quality cocktails in town,” according to the Daily Meal.
In Georgia, the list crowned Kimball House as the best of the best. The Decatur restaurant has a rotating list of specialty cocktails.
“But thanks to the ‘passion and humility’ that goes into crafting each drink, chances are you won’t be disappointed,” the menu notes.
Kimball House, housed in the former Decatur train depot, is a James Beard Award semifinalist.
