Located on the main floor of the historic space, PARISH RESTAURANT serves a variety of Southern inspired dishes with modern twists, alongside a classic fully stocked raw bar, six nights a week. Saturdays and Sundays boasts an impressive comfort food inspired brunch.
Guests arrive via complimentary valet, spacious street parking or a self park garage and enter a casual relaxed atmosphere that includes a classic walnut and zinc bar, centered by a raw bar, along with a spacious outdoor dining area. All dishes pull from the Southern cuisines that blend French, Spanish, French Caribbean and African flavors.
Chef Joe Schafer
With fifteen years of culinary experience and a love for organic, local foods, Executive Chef Joe Schafer brings a passion for rustic Southern cuisine to PARISH, a vibrant Inman Park eatery and market that pairs modern influences with traditional Southern comfort food.
Schafer, a Georgia native, began his culinary path as a dishwasher at a mom-and-pop restaurant in his hometown of Senoia—and ended up in the kitchen where, as he says, he never left. Schafer’s talent for creating down-home cuisine was honed at the Art Institute of Atlanta, where he perfected his cuisine, characterized as “rustic Southern refined with European techniques.” Schafer graduated from AIA’s culinary school with honors in 2001. From there, he went on to practice his culinary skills at local restaurants such as Rainwater, where he learned under executive chef Todd Annis, and the Globe, where he helped win Atlanta Magazine’s Restaurant of the Year award in their first year of operation. Schafer joined Concentrics in 2008 as a sous chef at Murphy’s, helping to create upscale comfort food at Virginia Highlands’ favorite restaurant. A year later, he took on the sous chef role at TAP, Atlanta’s first true gastropub.
When he’s not in the kitchen, Schafer relaxes by tending to the watermelons, okra, beets, and other vegetables in his organic garden. He’s also passionate about curing and smoking his own bacon, known around town as “Joe’s Bacon, which he hopes to eventually market to the public. Schafer resides in Atlanta with his wife, Toni, and their dog, Cleveland.
PARISH Market is located on the lower level and offers a casual patio for relaxing, a communal table for a quick bite and boasts shelves stocked with fair trade goods, organic housemade breads, fresh flowers, eco-friendly packaged nibbles, premium cheeses, housemade salumi, homemade ice cream, locally-sourced produce and a variety of ever-changing niche wares. PARISH To-Go offerings, found in the Market, include classically crisp po-boys, gourmet deli sandwiches, ready-made soups and salads, homemade pastries and breads and hearty breakfast dishes all fresh from the kitchen and available for grab-and-go or free delivery within the neighborhood. To-Go also takes the hassle out of deciding what’s for supper with a home-cooked dinner available for pick up or delivery, which changes nightly.
Thirsty? Check out our full service coffee and espresso bar boasting custom made blends and Fair Trade beans, the juice bar with vegetable and fruit juices, or our selection of artisanal wine and beer that focuses primarily on local breweries such as Atlanta Brewing Company and SweetWater Brewing Company, alongside the entire line of New Orleans’ based Abita Brewing Company. Reserved parking spots for The Market offer patrons a quick and easy in-and-out and free WI-FI ensures patrons can connect with ease. Mingle and graze at the communal table, enjoy a latte at the outdoor tables or peruse unique sundries housed in an exposed brick space--all at The Market at Parish.
THE PATIO
Grab a bite and enjoy the Atlanta weather with a group of friends or by your lonesome on one of two patios lined with a wrought iron fence and draped in vines. Choose from the restaurant level patio or the market level patio, both perfect settings to host al fresco events, catch up on your book club reading or simply enjoy your lunch on a beautiful day. Feel free to bring your beloved canine to the market patio.

PARISH is located in the heart of Inman Park in a historical Terminal Building built in 1890. The only remaining structure from an old pipe factory building had been abandoned for some time. With respect to the building’s fundamental spirit, Concentrics’ Bob Amick and Todd Rushing have restored the building to its original grandeur allowing patrons to relish the antiquated structure as they take in the organically funky vibe found throughout PARISH. The space features fully-restored crown moldings, antique Parisian sconces, red murano chandeliers, vaulted interior brick arches, a walnut and zinc bar, the original tin ceiling, refurbished windows, original exposed brick, a classic raw bar and a Vermont slate roof. A spacious outdoor dining area offers patrons an alfresco escape. Each aspect of PARISH will exude the same comfortable casualness associated with the laid back culture of the South. Good food at moderate prices, quality company and comforting original rustic design makes PARISH a destination.
