Quill at The Woodward Hotel

Quill is a hotel bar like you’d find in movies from the 1940s. The space itself is cozy-bordering on small-with a sultry, art deco vibe. There’s also a rooftop patio available with shade sails, a fire table and murals of literary greats from Georgia. The cocktail menu is well curated and sometimes literary itself. Definitely a place for grown-ups wanting to escape the college-town bar scene. 

5-10 p.m. Monday-Thursday; 5 p.m.-midnight Friday-Saturday, closed Sunday; 350 Second St., 31201; (478) 361-4055; thewoodwardhotel.com/quill
