Back in the mid-1800s, Henry Irby built a tavern and grocery store at what is now the corner of Peachtree Road and East Paces Ferry. His establishment quickly became a popular watering hole for locals and travelers, leading to the area being called Irbyville. Legend has it that a hunter hung a buck's head outside the tavern, which became a landmark for meeting up, and eventually the area was named Buckhead.

Our vision is to bring Irby's Tavern back to life, fostering a sense of community and familiarity. We aim to be a gathering place for locals and travelers alike to experience true Atlanta.

Irby's Tavern is dedicated to celebrating the city of Atlanta, its history, sports, and culture. It is a sanctuary for proud locals and a showcase of Atlanta for visitors.
