With the holiday season in full swing, Yeppa BeltLine has embraced winter with the debut of Yeppa 69 Lodge, an après-ski–inspired takeover that turns its BeltLine patio into a snow-dusted, mountain-chalet playground. Open now through the Winter Games in Milan, the lodge brings glimmering tree lights, wood-burning fire pits, and a cold-weather cocktail program rooted in the spirit of seventies and eighties après culture—infused with the easy warmth of Emilia-Romagna and Atlanta’s unmistakable energy. On Friday nights, the lodge shifts into a full snow storm, complete with swirling snowfall, a DJ beneath the lights, and champagne that inevitably becomes part of the evening.

In typical Yeppa fashion, Fridays heighten everything. As evening settles in, snowfall drifts across the patio, the music climbs, fire pits blaze, and the lodge takes on a celebratory, après-after-hours rhythm. Winter cocktails anchor the moment, shot-skis make unexpected appearances, and the snow gives the night a sense of escape—half snow day, half Italian house party. It’s Alps-meets-Atlanta in a way that feels both transportive and perfectly of the moment.

The snow storm is coming. Shelter in place at Yeppa 69 Lodge, located on the BeltLine

The seasonal lodge builds on the identity Yeppa BeltLine has been shaping since opening in May. Though new, the restaurant already feels woven into this stretch of the city, carrying forward the spirited world introduced at its Buckhead sibling. Inspired by the conviviality of Romagna, Yeppa BeltLine celebrates clinking glasses, open-armed hospitality, and food designed to be shared among friends. Indoors, curved lines and breezy details nod to the Italian seaside; outdoors, the patio remains the heart of the space—vibrant, communal, and always shifting with the BeltLine’s energy.

The kitchen continues to anchor the experience with house-made pastas, focaccia pizzas, seafood, spiedini, and Italian comfort dishes that lean into warmth without losing elegance. The approach remains hands-in-the-dough, personality-driven, and rooted in the joy of eating in Romagna. In summer, that shows up in breezy plates and bright drinks; in winter, in heartier dishes and the pleasure of gathering near the fire. No matter the season, the table grows, the stories stretch, and of course the mood stays unmistakably Yeppa.

Yeppa BeltLine is located at 667 Auburn Ave, Suite 120, on the Eastside Trail where Inman Park and Old Fourth Ward meet. Guests are welcomed Tuesday through Sunday, with dinner service during the week, late nights on Fridays and Saturdays, and weekend brunch that rolls easily into evening.
