As a result of spontaneous additions over the past 50-plus years, Manuel's Tavern is a rabbit's warren of meandering spaces, and it may be Atlanta's most notable tavern-cum-political spot. The kitchen turns out everything from sandwiches and burgers to a barbecued chicken dinner, baby-back ribs, Philly cheesesteak and chicken wings served with a house-made blue cheese dressing --- high points --- and about 20 beers on tap. The pork chops and meatloaf are generously portioned and provide enough food to take home for another seating. Among the burgers is an unlisted daily special made from American Kobe beef. Big screen TVs draw crowds for sports events, sometimes slowing service, and election night gatherings. On the first Saturday of each month, a comedy troupe, Laughing Matters, performs. In general, go for food at off hours or face a madding crowd.
