New, locally-owned eatery will feature first-of-its-kind format
| The Battery Atlanta, a premier destination for dining, entertainment and social experiences, will debut its newest offering, Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux, this summer. Known for combining a family-friendly sports bar atmosphere with an amped-up menu that delivers Cajun-inspired cuisine, Walk-On’s will add to The Battery Atlanta’s year-round experience and leverage the open container policy with a walk-up bar window. This restaurant is owned and operated by Atlanta-based Port Royal Brands. |
| The Battery Atlanta Walk-On’s location will incorporate elements of a recently-announced prototype for the brand to create Walk-On’s first non-traditional location, encompassing 3,600 square feet – roughly one-third the size of a traditional Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux. This intimate size and inviting environment will feature a bar-centric space in which guests can enjoy the Everyday is Game Day experience with 50+ TVs and signature menu items from the full Walk-On’s menu, including Mozzarella Logs, Fried Alligator, Bayou Pasta, Redfish Tacos and the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. Additionally, the restaurant will have upgraded kitchen technology to enhance overall efficiency. |
| “The Battery Atlanta offers a mix that you can’t find anywhere else, making it the perfect place to premiere the new prototype concept,” said Jef Wallace, Chief Executive Officer at Port Royal Brands. “With this being my hometown, it is so exciting to provide our community with an amazing restaurant to connect, cheer on the Atlanta Braves, and enjoy delicious, scratch-made dishes.” |
| “We are excited to work with Port Royal Brands to bring our first non-traditional restaurant to The Battery Atlanta—an exciting destination that is in our own backyard,” added Walk-On’s Chief Development Officer, Jennifer Striepling. “As we rollout our new prototype, this location will be among the first to feature our high efficiency kitchen, new exterior and interior design showcasing our brand story and local sports teams.” |
| Located across from Battle & Brew on Battery Avenue, just below the Aloft Hotel, Walk-On’s becomes part of a remarkable collection of restaurants, shops and entertainment venues that have made The Battery Atlanta one of the area’s most dynamic destinations. Walk-On’s will feature a 120-seat dining room and walk-up window, adding to the lively environment for baseball fans, local food enthusiasts and visitors. |
| “Walk-On’s shares our vision of providing exceptional experiences to our guests,” said Mike Plant, President & CEO of Braves Development Company. “Its dedication to serving top-quality dishes, delivering outstanding service and fostering an inviting, family-friendly atmosphere makes Walk-On’s the perfect addition to The Battery Atlanta’s robust restaurant lineup.” |
| Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux, a Louisiana-born restaurant, is renowned for offering a unique blend of amped-up Cajun-inspired dishes and classic American comfort food, all made from scratch with the highest quality ingredients. With its focus on providing a fun and energetic dining experience for sports fans and food lovers alike, Walk-On’s has become a favorite spot for both locals and visitors, creating a lasting impression in every community it serves. |
