What happened after Bar Rescue?

SandTown Pub, a bar on Campbellton Road in southwest Atlanta, was featured on Bar Rescue in the episode 'Sandtown Rescue,' which aired 2022-04-24 during the show's eighth season. The episode followed Jon Taffer's usual format, using an unannounced stress test of the bar's operations to identify problems with service and the drink program before his team carried out changes ahead of a relaunch.

A Yelp listing for Sandtown Pub, updated in July 2026, shows the business still active at 5819 Campbellton Rd, describing it as a sports bar serving wings, burgers, and comfort food. The listing carried 164 reviews as of that update, with feedback split between praise for the food and atmosphere and complaints about order accuracy and phone wait times — a mix consistent with an operating business with an inconsistent but ongoing service record rather than one that has closed. A Google Places record checked on 2026-09-08 likewise listed the pub as operational at the same address, under the name Sandtown Pub, with a website at sandtownpub.com.

Separate listings on TripAdvisor and WeddingWire, the latter describing catering services offered by the business, were also found during this review, though neither carried a specific enough publication date to use as a standalone dated source for this record. An automated check of the business's own website could not be completed for this record; the request returned an HTTP 403 response, so current on-site hours, menu, or a dated homepage notice were not directly reviewed. The name on file has not changed from the one used on the show beyond minor capitalization ('SandTown' versus 'Sandtown'). No reporting was found describing a closure, rename, or change of ownership at the Campbellton Road address since the 2022 episode.

Because the clearest current-state evidence available is the Yelp listing rather than a review of the bar's own site or a second, differently sourced confirmation, this record is carried as reported rather than verified confidence. One search was used to confirm the pub's continued operation for this record.
