Flip Burger Boutique

Flip Burger Boutique in Atlanta serves an upscale twist on classic American favorites. I tried a burger with caramelized onions, blue cheese and some sort of fruit jam. In addition, I sampled the onion rings with beer mustard and fries. Everything was amazing. Their milkshake selection includes a few unique flavors like Krispy Kreme and Nutella with toasted marshmallow. I tried the Krispy Kreme milkshake, which had tiny bits of doughnut chopped up in it. I think it may have been a crème filled one, but I wasn’t sure. Burgers run around $8 and shakes are $6-$7. At this meal, my whole family was doing more eating than talking, which is always a good sign.

The décor is urban chic. Seating is provided in long communal tables where some guests choose to talk with their “neighbors” while other patrons stick to themselves. There’s also bar seating around the perimeter where you can order cocktails or view one of the many tvs framed with white picture frames. On one wall, there is cushy, white leather seating that extends from the floor to ceiling. There’s also a patio with bursts of brightly colored pillows at each seat. On the interior, one wall is painted with an eclectic mural. Basically, there is plenty to take in with all your senses.

The uprising thing about Flip is that it’s actually family friendly while being chic. In the same room, you could see families, couples on a date and singles having a drink. It was a nice mix. In the end, it may have been a high calorie meal, but it was worth every bite.
