A new name in nosh is headed to Perimeter Mall.

Cincinnati, Ohio-based Tavern Restaurant Group is bringing its British pub concept — aptly named The Pub — to the Dunwoody mall.

The Pub has leased 7,000 square feet at Perimeter, taking the former Hudson Grille space. It’s set to open in mid summer.

It will be the first location in Georgia.

Conceived by restaurateur Nick Sanders in 2001, The Pub is inspired by pubs found throughout Great Britain. Expect an authentic interior and beer-specific glassware.

One feature is the “Pour Your Own Beer Wall” where people pull their own pints and pay by the ounce.

The menu offers classic British comfort food such as fish-n-chips, bangers and mash, and shepherd’s pie.

The Pub could expand in Atlanta.

“I think we are open to other locations,” said Nancy Parrott, director of communications. “We are starting to take off.”

The Pub today has 11 locations in four states: Ohio, Kentucky, Florida and Tennessee.
