TreeHouse Restaurant & Bar

Food: I've mainly had appetizers but everything's been pretty good thus far. I've had the beer battered mushrooms and the blue crab dip and both were rather tasty. You can check their menu. Though I will say that their beer list is pretty out of date. Unfortunately, Dixie, isn't even made anymore and it's still on their menu.
Cheapest Beer: I believe a bottled domestic is $3.50. Draught Imports are $5.
Pros: This is probably the most relaxed and relaxing porch in Buckhead. Plants all around the deck and pleasantly not located just off a busy road. If you want to drink outside and talk with your friends this is definitely the spot. Service is usually pretty quick also. As is the norm these days, there are heaters outside for when it drops below 70 and stays above fifty five degrees or so.
Cons: This is definitely not a place to try and meet new people or grab a cheap drink. Though there is a bit of a happy hour crowd, it usually groups that keep to themselves. Also if it's raining and your forced inside there really isn't much to offer. The upstairs is small and cramped and downstairs doesn't really offer anything special. So I would generally avoid the Treehouse if it's under 50 degrees or raining. Since it's in the middle of Peachtree Hills, it's only convenient if you live at a nearby apartment and I'd say that maybe one or two cabs go through the area each day. So be prepared to drive to you next stop.
Parking: Not a problem. There are places to park on the streets nearby. Though a couple of nearby shops have gotten testy lately so make sure to look for No Parking signs and avoid the possibility of getting towed.
General Opinion: This is a place I generally hit up about once every other month. For example, I met my mother for a happy hour drink their today. It's just a laid back place to sit and have a conversation with someone when you don't want to hang out at an apartment or house. Give it a try and see what you think. To me, it's a weekday place.
SPECIAL NOTE: There has been a rash of cops at the park just north of the Treehouse on Peachtree Hills Rd. by the park. At points they've even set up road blocks. This may have slowed down since they taken efforts to control speeding on the road but be warned. I'd suggest not having an expired license or tag.
