The Peacherie, a three-stall food hall, and French restaurant Brasserie Lundi open on Sept. 10 inside the lobby of 1375 Peachtree in Midtown.
Located at the corner of Peachtree and 17th, one block north of the Woodruff Arts Center, the newly renovated, seven-story office building includes a Fedex store location and medical offices among its tenants. Prior to the renovation, the building once housed a location of Brash Coffee and hosted food pop-ups in a ground floor restaurant space.
Operated by Hospitality HQ, a Brooklyn-based restaurant group co-founded by Chef Akhtar Nawab, The Peacherie and Brasserie Lundi are meant to provide neighborhood residents, visitors, and office workers with all-day eating and drinking options.
Nawab owns La Esquina in New York City and Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant Alta Calidad in Brooklyn, with Hospitality HQ operating similar food halls to the Peacherie in Orlando and Los Angeles.

The Peacherie will eventually feature three food stalls. Discourse Eatery and Ninja Way Express will open first, with a third food stall opening later this fall. After that, look for a rotating lineup of restaurant stalls at the Peacherie throughout the year.
Owned by Chef Shawn Miles Davies and Jordan Bynum, Discourse Eatery serves Southern dishes, like fried green tomatoes with cherry tomato jam and smoked honey chicken, as well as smoothies. Over at Ninja Way Express, Chef Jack Bai (Gekko Kitchen) serves sushi, hibachi dishes, and poke bowls.

Nawab’s French restaurant and bar will anchor the lobby space at 1375 Peachtree, with indoor and outdoor seating for up to 130 people.
Expect full service and French brasserie dishes such as a foie gras torchon, Parisienne gnocchi with basil pistou and zucchini, poulet rôti (roast chicken), and poached halibut with charred leeks and smoked trout caviar. Dessert features a peach tart tatin and crème brûlée, while the bar offers cocktails, aperitifs, and a tight menu of Old World wines.
