McCray's Tavern - West Village

McCray's Tavern at the West Village is definitely one of Smyrna's hidden gems. Redefining the concept of American neighborhood bar and grill, this instant classic is a cornerstone in Vinings, and a local favorite. McCray's Tavern boasts 49 taps with an eclectic selection of draft beers that compliment its exceptional American fare. Everything is prepared from only the highest quality and freshest local ingredients. Besides our diverse menu, our executive chef always has something special to offer every night of the week. Creating specials such as bacon-crusted meatloaf, to Rack of Lamb, this local gastro pub serves anything but "bar food."

"Good food, good time. I recommend going. My group had a wide variety of meals. My roommate was raving over the chicken salad panini, I had a steak worthy of a steakhouse. And beer lovers would enjoy there large selection of beers on tap. Also it's in a cool Area if you've never been there before."

"We went for Mother's Day brunch. There was a buffet that was reasonably priced for the menu. Their regular menu was also available if you didn't want the buffet, which a lot of places don't do. Noticed at times some of the music was not fitting for the occasion, but it was music I liked so it didn't bother me. We had a party of 8 that include a 5 yr old and 22 month old. They ate their food without issue. Kids ate free. We all left saying we would do it again."

"McCray's is a great neighborhood spot. It is a good place to hang out and have a few good drinks. The highlight is the service staff. They are friendly and make a pretty decent drink. The food options at McCrays, for me, are limited. It doesn't have great bar food, but it does have a great atmosphere."

"you just can't beat this place - in the six years since Ioved here I've never had a bad experience here (I go 2 to 4 x a week)
BEAT BRUNCH in Vinings area, Bloody Mary bar can't be beat!
Awesome staff with great food at a reasonable price - perfect combo!
Ask for one of the Britney's or Whitney, Sean or Ashley at bar - just wonderful service!
iIf your into sports - they have every game in the world available!
one of my favorites!
