Southern casual and family-friendly eatery Bantam + Biddy is now open in Atlantic Station, the restaurant announced Wednesday. The eatery has transitioned from its former sister restaurant, Chick-a-Biddy, and reopened its doors in the mixed-use community last month.
When Chef and Co-Owner Shaun Doty last year revealed he would shutter The Federal nearby, he said the swap was coming for Chick-a-Biddy.
“Atlantic Station has long been a prime location for our concept Chick-a-Biddy, and we expect the same for Bantam + Biddy,” Doty said. “Bantam + Biddy is comfortable yet elevated, offering customers our beloved chicken recipes in a modern environment. The Bantam + Biddy brand resonates with people, and as Atlantic Station transformed, so have we to better serve the community.”
Bantam + Biddy offers breakfast, lunch and dinner and specializes in regional, all-natural and pastured poultry. The eatery serves a mixture of Southern-inspired cuisine with an emphasis on “freshness, gluten-free accessibility and tradition.”
Chef Shaun Doty started his career in Texas and went on to work in some of the largest culinary cities across the globe throughout France and Belgium, but his passion lies in creating simply prepared contemporary fare in Atlanta. He opened Shaun’s, a casual neighborhood bistro, in Inman Park in 2006 and also co-founded another Atlanta favorite, YEAH! Burger in 2010. Bantam + Biddy was established in 2012 with Atlantic Station marking the fifth location of the Southern diner with additional locations at Ansley Mall and Hartsfield-Jackson Airport along with out-of-state locations in Florida and Tennessee.
