Dunwoody has never seen a sports bar like this. Streakers Sports Pub at Politan Row leans into the wild side of sports, with wall-to-wall scandals, jello shots in syringes, and cocktails named after the most notorious names in the game. It’s fun, bold, and completely different from anything else around.
It’s also the only bar at Politan Row with TVs, so you can catch every big play without leaving your seat. Even better, you can order food from any vendor in the hall right to your table. No lines, no missing the moment, just good eats and wild drinks.
Mara Mullen leads the bar program here and at two more Politan Row favorites. Bar Politan offers quick, classic cocktails right when you walk in. Okay Anny’s is the neon-lit lounge in the back, full of ‘90s nostalgia and DJ energy. Together, they’ve turned Ashford Lane into Dunwoody’s new late-night scene.
Streakers Sports Pub is a scandal-themed sports bar inside Politan Row at Ashford Lane in Dunwoody, Georgia. It serves jello shots in syringes, sports-named cocktails, and food from any Politan Row vendor delivered to your seat, and it stays open until midnight.
In Podcast 294 of What’s Up Dunwoody, I sat down with Mara Mullen, the beverage manager behind Streakers Sports Pub, Okay Anny’s, and Bar Politan. We talked about how a joke name became a real bar in under 30 days, why the walls celebrate sports’ biggest scandals, and what late-night options mean for Dunwoody.

Not Your Average Sports Bar
From the moment you walk into Streakers Sports Pub, you know this isn’t your basic Falcons-and-light-beer sports bar. The walls are filled with famous sports scandals: Tonya Harding, Lance Armstrong, and a few streakers who made the headlines. Mara described it best: “This is a bar dedicated to the stories in sports. The gamblers, the juicers, the cheaters… the people that make it interesting.”
Instead of picking a team or a mascot, the Streakers theme is all about celebrating the bold personalities and moments that keep sports fans talking. You may not remember who won the Super Bowl in 1994, but you definitely remember Nancy Kerrigan vs. Tonya Harding.
From a Joke Name to Open in 30 Days
The name “Streakers” started as a joke, a Hail Mary idea tossed out by Mara in a brainstorming meeting with her Politan Row team. She figured it would never get picked. But to her surprise, the team loved it, and just a few weeks later, the concept came to life inside Politan Row at Ashford Lane.
As Mara told podcast host Matt Weber, “I really thought they were joking when they said we were going with it. But less than 30 days later, we were open.”
Streakers Sports Pub sits in the back right corner of the food hall, just past Okay Anny’s. Mara runs all three bar programs at Politan Row: Bar Politan (the main bar up front), Okay Anny’s (the neon lounge), and now Streakers.
Jello Shots, John Dalys, and More
What makes Streakers stand out, aside from the unforgettable name and theme, is the beverage menu. There are the classics, like pub-style drafts and mixed beers (think Snake Bites and Dirty Hippies), but the real stars are the “juicers”, signature jello shots served in oversized syringes. Flavors are named after infamous athletes like Lance Armstrong and Lawrence Taylor.
Mara’s other favorites include the Darryl Strawberry Margarita and a house-made John Daly, which is basically an Arnold Palmer that’s all grown up. As she says, “Nobody’s doing craft jello shots in the city right now, so they are super fun.”
Two Bars, One Vibe: Okay Anny’s vs. Streakers
Just steps away from Streakers is another of Mara’s creative playgrounds: Okay Anny’s, a retro lounge that lives somewhere between the late ’80s and early ’90s. Trapper Keeper menus, floppy disk coasters, and Tom Selleck on the wall create a totally immersive neon nostalgia trip.
Matt and his wife even debated the era. “I said early 90s,” Matt joked. “My wife said 80s. We were pulling up the playlists to prove our points.”
Okay Anny’s stays open until 1 a.m. on weekends, with DJs and dancing. Streakers Sports Pub is the place to catch the game, laugh at the scandals on the wall, and maybe try a syringe full of margarita.
Late Night in Dunwoody? Finally.
Streakers and Okay Anny’s are leading a nightlife shift in the heart of Dunwoody. As Mara said, “There’s nowhere else to get a great crafted cocktail and stay out past midnight around here.”
For years, Dunwoody locals drove to Buckhead or Midtown for a night out. Now they can get crafted cocktails, jello shots, and a lively crowd at 4550 Olde Perimeter Way, inside Ashford Lane.
Anny’s is open until 1 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays. Streakers goes until midnight. Want to keep the party going? Word on the street is Mara’s watching the analytics and might push Anny’s to 2 a.m. if locals keep asking for it.
What Is Politan Row at Ashford Lane?
Politan Row at Ashford Lane is a chef-driven food hall in the heart of Dunwoody. It features more than a dozen food concepts, from 26 Thai and Master Pho to Delilah’s Everyday Soul and Bussin’ Jerk Jamaican.

- Okay Anny’s: a nostalgic neon lounge in the back with DJs on weekends.

The Community Vibe
What makes Politan Row unique is its community feel. Unlike mall food courts, Politan Row is run with intentional hospitality. As Mara put it, “You’re not just ordering food; you’re building relationships with the vendors. I see Maria at Bucatini, Jen at Master Pho, Luis from Millie’s… these folks are here every day, putting heart into their food.”

What Streakers Means for Living in Dunwoody
As a Dunwoody REALTOR®, I hear the same question from buyers all the time: is there anything to do here after dinner? Places like Streakers Sports Pub change that answer. Ashford Lane and the Perimeter area now give you a walkable night out close to home, which is a real plus if you are looking at homes, townhomes, or condos near Perimeter Center.
My Take: Streakers is the kind of fun, slightly weird spot that makes a suburb feel like a neighborhood. Go for the game, stay for a Darryl Strawberry Margarita.
