Drinks in Roswell

The weather is hot, the sky is clear, and the days are long. Summer is here. It’s the best time of year to get out of the house, get some sunshine, and do something fun with your friends or family. But, when you’ve already gone to the beach or sat by the pool, what else is there to do this summer? If you’re looking for something to liven up the long summer nights, look no further than your local tavern. As a great Roswell restaurant to visit during the summer, we may be biased, but we think there’s nothing better than sitting outside, eating some good food, and sipping on a cocktail. Not convinced? Here are 5 reasons why you should visit your local tavern this summer.


Outdoor Dining

There’s nothing better than sitting outside to eat dinner in the summer. In fact, we think it’s the only way to experience fine dining in Roswell. The evening air is warm but not too hot, and you can watch the city pass you by as you enjoy one of the 1920 Tavern’s small plates like our crispy Rhode Island calamari served with wasabi aioli and creamy ponzu sauce or our Bayou fried shrimp that comes with cocktail sauce and jalapeño remoulade.


Seafood in the Sun

Nothing tastes more like summer than seafood, and our Roswell restaurant menu is full of delicious seafood to bring a taste of the ocean to Roswell. If you join us for lunch, try our inc. tuna tacos small plate that’s made with sashimi-grade tuna that’s lightly blackened, seared, and topped with mango salsa and radicchio wasabi aioli. Or, if you’re here for dinner, you can order Mark’s shrimp and chicken cajun alfredo served with button mushrooms, spinach, sundried tomatoes, tossed in a cajun alfredo sauce on a bed of fettuccine, and topped with parmesan and cheese.


Refreshing Drinks

Our local tavern has a number of delicious drinks to keep you cool during these hot summer nights. Try one of our signature cocktails like the coconut mojito crafted with Big Five coconut rum, mint, lime, and sugar. We also have an excellent scotch selection, including Abelour, Scapa Skiren, and Glenfiddich 12y. Our wine selection is unbeatable. Sip on your favorite glass of red or white as you enjoy the summer with us. For something more refreshing, try one of our craft beers on tap.


Tempting Treats

Summer is the perfect time to treat yourself, and what better way to do so than with one of the 1920 Tavern’s mouthwatering desserts? For something summery, try our vanilla bean creme brûlée served with berry compote. Or for a rich, gluten-free treat, order our Grand Marnier chocolate truffle cake with creme fraiche. Can’t decide between an after-dinner drink or a dessert? You don’t have to choose with our ice cream cocktails. 


Live Music

The only thing better than enjoying hand-crafted food in the sun at your local tavern is doing so while listening to live music. We have live music every Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday for diners to enjoy. These nights feature local artists to add an extra bit of fun to your dining experience. 


Whether you want to sit outside and soak up the sun or enjoy a refreshing cocktail with your friends, there’s nothing better than spending time at your favorite Roswell restaurant during the summer. The 1920 Tavern has the best food, drinks, and entertainment around, and we are so excited to welcome you to our restaurant. Whether you’re interested in dinner with your family or
private business lunches this summer, make your reservation today.
