Justin Amick, who once served as the general manager of Inman Park’s now-closed Brasserie and Neighborhood Cafe at Parish when it was simply “Parish,” is now opening his own business called Painted Park in the 240 North Highland Avenue NE building along with partner William Stallworth.
Painted Park will be part of Painted Hospitality Group, Eater Atlanta Friday first reported, which includes The Painted Pin restaurant and bowling alley, and The Painted Duck at the Stockyards development, an old-school gaming parlor and restaurant combined into one facility.
“Unfortunately, [this] was leaked by a tipster [to Eater],” Amick told What Now Atlanta. “[I am] unable to share any details at this time, [but will] hopefully be reaching back out very soon… once I officially announce details of the concept.”
The previous restaurant at the site, which had operated for 13 years before its closure this January, was owned by Concentrics Restaurants — a group founded by Bob Amick, Justin Amick’s father. The new establishment will reportedly serve food and drinks in an outdoor seating arrangement alongside a grassy area featuring lawn games along the Eastside Beltline.

Excited when you see in “The Works” but realize it’s not actually the mixed use development called “The Works”. Unnecessary joy wasted. Lol
Easter egg? 😉
Why is this happening everywhere but Los Angeles?!!! I don’t have the money to open a Painted Pickle or a Chicken & Pickle but I am a believer. We need this kind of facility in L.A. So sick and tired of telling folks about the concept only to have it catching on every place but my home town! So sad. I know hundreds of die hard picklers such as myself who would go crazy for a place like this in their own back yard. PLEASE bring your mad enterprise skills here. We have tons of crappy warehouses just screaming to be made into courts. If you build it, they will come. Seriously. Even the goofy hipsters want a cool place to play and hang out. Keeping my fingers crossed that this is going to happen…soon!
