The restaurant is replacing Park 75 in Midtown.
Chef Ford Fry is cooking up another Atlanta restaurant concept. The restauranteur has plans to open Bar Margot in the Four Seasons Hotel, named for Margot Tenenbaum, the playwright made famous in The Royal Tenenbaums,
The eatery will replace the now-shuttered Park 75 restaurant in the luxury Midtown property, at 75 14th Street NE, September 28.
“Atlanta needs a cool hotel bar with high-service standards, big-flavor food, and zero pretension,” Fry said in a release Friday. “Bar Margot will be a funky community lounge with uncomplicated, thoughtful food, small-batch spirits, and a rockin’ vinyl collection.”
Bar Margot will serve up eats like charcuterie and cheeses, crudos, and other small plates for sharing, and homemade pastas, as well as “craft espresso and high-quality coffee menus.”
Bar Margot will be Fry’s tenth Atlanta restaurant (with the addition of the soon-to-open Superica Buckhead). Under Rocket Farm Restaurants, Fry owns and operates JCT. Kitchen & Bar, The Optimist, and Marcel on the Westside, King + Duke and St. Cecilia in Buckhead, No. 246 in Decatur, The El Felix in Alpharetta’s Avalon development, and Superica at Krog Street Market.
