After a long day of looking at Atlanta homes for sale, sometimes you just feel like kicking back and relaxing with a nice cocktail. Luckily, the Atlanta area is home to several excellent bars and restaurants where you can order creative cocktails. Here are a few top spots we recommend checking out the next time you want a specialty drink.

• The S.O.S. Tiki Bar: 340 Church St. Decatur, GA 30030
  If you're in the mood for beachy, tiki hut-style cocktails, you'll enjoy visiting The S.O.S. Tiki Bar. The bar and dining area are dimly lit and decorated with hula skirts, palm fronds, and other beach decor. You can order a classic, like the Mai Tai, or something more creative, like Fool's Gold, a drink made with Jamaican rum, lemon, cinnamon, vanilla, allspice, blood orange, and hazelnut.
  
  The S.O.S. Tiki Bar has an in-house restaurant called Sugar Loaf, which serves tasty snacks like Buttermilk Fried Chicken Bites and Portobello Fries.
  
  
• The James Room: 661 Auburn Ave. NE, Suite 280, Atlanta, GA 30312
  The James Room is a cocktail lounge with a cozy, intimate vibe. They play mood-setting music in the background, creating a fully immersive drinking experience. The space does have a dress code; tank tops, flip flops, and athletic attire are not permitted.
  
  Favorites at The James Room include the Espresso Martini and the Old Fashioned. Guests also love The Great Gatsby, a drink inspired by the American novel. Order a charcuterie board to enjoy with your drinks, and you'll be set for a lovely evening.
  
  
• Parlor: 249-A Peters St. SW, Atlanta, GA 30313
  Parlor is a small, friendly cocktail den with brick walls, artsy decor, and comfortable couches to relax on. Their craft cocktails are as beautiful as they are delicious. Try The Smooth Operator, made with Old Forester Signature 100, hibiscus mint, and lemon. Or, try the Easy Peasy made with Gordon's Gin, Creme de Peach, Ghost Coast Verde, and lime juice.
  
  The food menu at Parlor is limited, but every dish brings something unique to the table. The Seafood Quesadillas served with mango salsa are great for sharing, and the grilled salmon is always tender and satisfying.
