Spring has sprung at Gypsy Kitchen
This spring, Gypsy Kitchen in Buckhead Village lures guests to celebrate the changing seasons and warmer weather with various specials.
When guests walk through the doors of Gypsy Kitchen, they are ushered into another world, one filled with eclectic bohemian style and culinary adventures boasting the flavors of the Mediterranean. These specialty nights are a way to celebrate this experience nearly every night of the week.
Every Monday through Friday from 4-6 p.m., Gypsy Kitchen invites guests for happy hour food and drink specials. The happy hour menu boasts a variety of flatbreads, patatas bravas, and croquetas de pollo. Glasses of wine range from $8 to $10. Grey Goose Essence spritzes, in three flavors, are $10, and the seasonal saffron-infused Highclere Castle gin spritz is $11. A portion of each Highclere Castle spritz sold goes to support Camp Twin Lakes.
On Wine Down Wednesdays, guests are invited for a midweek pick-me-up with reduced prices on bottles of wine and live music.
Gypsy Kitchen presents Third Thursdays, a new series happening every third Thursday of the month. On these evenings, guests can expect a lavish multi-course dinner exploring the Mediterranean's best flavors. The first event on April 18 features a five-course chef-curated menu with wine pairings. Fonseca Winery will host this event and feature some of Spain’s top varietals.
Once the weekend hits, diners can cap off dinner with DJ James Pruitt, who will be spinning low lounge house music from 8-11 p.m. every Saturday.

About Gypsy Kitchen
Located in Buckhead Village, Gypsy Kitchen draws inspiration from Spain's culinary riches—infused with Moroccan traditions from across Gibraltar and Indian influences that traveled west along the same seas. Centuries of interplay between these food traditions and lands inspire its Iberian-fusion plates.
