What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

On the October 2015 episode 'Finger Lickin' Food,' Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives visited the Wrecking Bar Brewpub, a basement gastropub and in-house brewery set inside a Victorian mansion in Atlanta's Little Five Points neighborhood. The segment highlighted the brewpub's house-brewed beer alongside its scratch-kitchen bar food, cooked to pair with the rotating beer list. The Wrecking Bar has operated in the historic mansion for more than a decade and brews its beer on site. A direct check of the brewpub's own website on 2026-09-08 found current hours, a 2025 copyright notice, and an active online ordering widget. Yelp's listing for the business, updated in July 2026, separately shows 825 reviews, with recent write-ups describing a new chef and dishes such as Georgia trout and a vegetarian summer harvest plate.
