Painted Pickle opens at Armour Yards: It’s called Painted Pickle, and no, we’re not talking about the kind you eat. The name of the game at this new Atlanta attraction is pickleball — and if you’re looking for a place where you and your friends can engage in a little friendly competition, look no further.

This morning on Good Day Atlanta, we "comp-eated" at Painted Pickle, the new gaming and entertainment venue located at 279 Ottley Drive at Armour Yards. Created by the Painted Hospitality — the company behind popular hangouts The Painted Pin and The Painted Duck — Painted Pickle combines food, drinks, pickleball, and a range of other lawn games. Located in a 32,500-square-foot space, Painted Pickle features eight indoor pickleball courts and one outdoor court, an indoor gaming lawn (we’re talking ping pong and cornhole, among other options), a performance stage, and outdoor patio spaces.
