Welcome to Atlanta's Newest Wine Haven: Side Saddle
Atlanta is experiencing a robust surge in the wine scene, and the latest gem to be added is Side Saddle Wine Saloon. Opening this Saturday on the trendy Boulevard Heights stretch of the BeltLine, Side Saddle marks a significant moment as the city's first dedicated natural wine bar. Brought to life by the team behind the beloved coffee spot Finca to Filter, this wine bar aims to create a unique space for wine lovers and novices alike.
A Nod to History and Progress
The name Side Saddle takes inspiration from the historical practice where women used to ride horses sideways to maintain grace dressed in skirts. As founder Kayla Bellman puts it, the bar symbolizes not only a reclaiming of that image but also a celebration of diversity in the beverage industry. “We’re honoring the pioneers — our women, LGBTQ+ partners, and people of color who have paved the way,” she explains. As a bar led by women and non-binary individuals, Side Saddle aims to create an inclusive environment where all can enjoy.
A Cozy Escape in the Vibrant ATL Neighborhood
This delightful wine bar boasts a cozy yet inviting ambiance, decorated with plush velvet booths and floor-to-ceiling window views that allow natural light to pour in. Beyond the elegant interior, patrons can enjoy a spacious outdoor patio that offers an intimate neighborhood bar feel reminiscent of the best places on the West Coast.
A Funky Selection to Savor
The wine menu is not just any ordinary collection; it features an array of natural wines, including pet-nats (petillant naturel) and sustainably produced varietals. Notable selections include an Oregon-grown Zibibbo, celebrated for its zesty orange blossom notes, and the Bocin Servaj from Piedmont, an organically farmed blend that tells local folklore with every sip. Additionally, Side Saddle will offer creative house drinks and several non-alcoholic options, making it a versatile spot for all preferences.
Experience the Local Atlanta Buzz
This new addition to the Atlanta food scene represents more than just another place to sip wine; it is a hub of community connection and celebration. With its focus on natural wines and inclusive leadership, Side Saddle stands to be a new meeting point for those interested in exploring Atlanta's culture, embracing a lifestyle that places value on diversity and sustainability.
So whether you’re new to Atlanta or a lifelong resident, mark your calendar and gather your friends, because Side Saddle promises an exhilarating experience that reflects the vibrant spirit of this city. Discover natural wine like never before!
