ATL Shuck Boyz Fuel Monday Service Industry Nights

 LikeMinds is sticking around. Following an enthusiastic response to its opening and a packed World Cup run, the Krog District concept has extended its stay through the end of the year. Originally planned as a limited 120-day pop-up, LikeMinds is now fully embracing its sports bar status and setting up to be Atlanta’s fall football headquarters. The venue’s massive 16-by-9-foot screen, the largest along the Beltline’s Eastside Trail, will be tuned into the season’s biggest matchups and special events with full sound, including Atlanta United, SEC football, Atlanta Falcons, the World Series, and more. Music will remain a major part of the mix, with DJ Skooter on Fridays and DJs in regular rotation throughout Saturday brunch.

All that action calls for something substantial, and LikeMinds is answering with an expanded menu, including barbecue plates and an assortment of new appetizers created by Chef Julian Hower of Phoe Cue. While keeping plenty of LikeMinds favorites in play, including smoked wings, Korean barbecue egg rolls, Rockabilly Blues Meatballs, and Frazie’s Meat & Market sandos, LikeMinds is also adding new classics like Mr. Pink with Verlasso salmon, southern-style coleslaw, applewood smoked bacon, tomato, and sriracha in a warm spinach wrap.

On weekends, LikeMinds flips the record, serving up ‘Funk Brunch’ Saturdays and Sundays from 12 to 4 p.m., with barbecue plates, Southern brunch favorites, Cinna Guys cinnamon rolls, brunch cocktails and a soundtrack of funk, soul, and boogie through the afternoon. Menu highlights include the Fancy Biscuit & Gravy topped with pulled pork and egg and the $12 Hollar with bourbon maple sausage, egg, cheddar, and house peach jam.

The bar will continue to keep up with the expanded food and programming, with draft cocktails like the signature LikeMinded and Beltline Confidential, beer and wine, canned cocktails and wine, spritzes, NA beers, and THC beverages. Guests can also take advantage of The Turn at LikeMinds golf simulator lounge, billiards, and bar games throughout the 14,700-square-foot indoor and outdoor space.

On Mondays, LikeMinds teams up with ATL Shuck Boyz for Service Industry Night from 5 to 10 p.m., featuring oysters shucked to order, Southern-inspired plates, vinyl, and industry perks. The menu includes Southeastern raw oysters, Oysters Magic City, Okonomiyaki Hush Puppies, Blue Crab Pimento Cheese Dip, and more. Industry guests can show an ID or recent pay stub to take advantage of the night’s rotating perks.

LikeMinds will be located at 112 Krog Street NE, Atlanta, GA in the former BrewDog space. For more information about LikeMinds or to inquire about private events and sign up for the newsletter, visit

CREATIVE TEAM BEHIND WESTSIDE MOTOR LOUNGE TO OPEN POP-UP CONCEPT AT THE KROG DISTRICT – OPENING JUNE 18!

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 5/13/26

LikeMinds Will Be an Inclusive Space to Gather With Your People- Different Stories, Same Frequency

Featuring Live Music, Craft Cocktails and Food, Curated Vinyl Program, Billiards, and More

The Krog District will welcome a new pop-up concept this spring. That concept is LikeMinds, an inclusive and inviting space that is founded on the common thread that unites us all, whether it is immediately recognizable or not. Different journeys, same destination.  The pop-up, slated for a limited 120-day run, is fueled by a collective of Atlanta hospitality veterans for a high-energy experience rooted in music, food, and community.

Located adjacent to the BeltLine Eastside Trail, the 14,700-square-foot space (12,000 indoor, with an additional 2,700 outdoor) is LikeMinds, a concept led by Kelly Campbell and powered by teams from Southern Culinary & Creative, Smith’s Olde Bar, Frazie’s Meat & Market, Bunker Design, and other Atlanta partners. LikeMinds aims to offer a thoughtfully curated social venue that expands on the creative vision behind Westside Motor Lounge—Atlanta’s favorite adult playground known for its expansive indoor-outdoor spaces, curated menus, and the jazz kissa listening bar, Echo Room. 

But LikeMinds will be more than just an extension of Westside Motor Lounge- it is a brand new concept, envisioned by Campbell’s team over the last several months.  Open 7 days a week, LikeMinds will be a vibrant space, steeped in programming developed by Beau Nolen of Smith’s Olde Bar with regularly scheduled live music, guest DJs, a curated vinyl program, billiards and bar games, and an upgraded audio/visual setup for sports-viewing parties of all kinds. Additionally, LikeMinds will have a full menu led by Julian Hower of Smith’s and Mark Frazie of Frazie’s Meat and Market featuring Frazie’s Meat + Market sandos, sharables, and more.  On weekends, LikeMinds will introduce a brunch program designed by Hower and inspired by his Pho Cue concept, paired with a brunch beverage menu crafted by Dana Roberts of Westside Motor Lounge. Roberts is also designing the full bar program, which will feature craft and draft cocktails, spirit-free options, beer, wine, and THC beverages.

“This idea started with a simple goal—create a space where people can find their people,” says LikeMinds Co-Creator Kelly Campbell. “What makes LikeMinds special is the team behind it. This is a group with shared history, shared values, and a real passion for hospitality coming together to build something that only exists for a moment.”

LikeMinds is scheduled to open in late Spring in time to welcome the world to Atlanta.  The short-run “lightning in a bottle” nature of the project reflects a like-minded team of operators, each with their own established businesses, joining forces to create a can’t-miss summer destination.

“The LikeMinds team shares our belief that The Krog District serves as a place for connection and community,” said 26th Street Partners. “This pop-up concept aligns with our vision of creating an engaging, community-driven destination while shining a light on Atlanta businesses and brands, and we’re excited to have them on board for the summer.”

LikeMinds will be located at 112 Krog Street NE, Atlanta, GA in the former BrewDog space. For more information about LikeMinds or to inquire about private events and sign up for the newsletter, visit
