The next time you want to go out with friends in Atlanta, go to FELLASHIP ATL. Don’t ask questions, just go, and thank me later. If you haven’t heard, FELLASHIP is Cam Newton’s new cigar lounge located a short walk from Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Castleberry Hill. It’s a vibe. That’s the best and only way to capture the essence of this place. From the in-house cigar aficionados, interior design, food, music and everything in between. FELLASHIP gets it. There’s been a need for a place like FELLASHIP that gives good vibes for a low-key night out, and that’s what we got.

Newton’s inspiration for the name came from growing up as a preacher’s son and spending Sunday’s after church fellowshipping. But the twist on the alternate spelling comes from how Newton says it’s pronounced in the South, hence the “a” in fellaship.

If you’re looking to switch it up from hitting Buckhead bars, Edgewood or even clubs like Gold Room, this is the place to go. It’s a nice change with a classy, grown and sexy ambiance. Now you won’t get away with wearing just jeans and a t-shirt, so be ready to dress it up (business casual). It’s just another part of the luxury cigar lounge experience FELLASHIP offers.

Now let’s dive into the food, drinks and cigars. The best thing on the menu was the crispy sesame shrimp. It’s the right amount of crunch with a delicious hibachi inspired white sauce for dipping. And no exaggeration, but FELLASHIP’s bartender made the best whiskey sour I’ve ever had, so I can only imagine how bomb the specialty cocktails were. When selecting a cigar, guests get to choose from an entire room filled with cigars with the help of a swaggy cigar aficionado. A night out doesn’t really get any better than that.

FELLASHIP opened its doors to the public on Friday, May 3rd and Newton held an invite only opening the night before to celebrate with friends and family.

Now that FELLASHIP is officially open and you’ve seen the photos, the only thing left to do is experience it for yourself. Leave a comment if FELLASHIP is the next place you want to go for a night out!
