The Falcons open the season Sunday, September 13 on the road at Pittsburgh, 1 p.m. on FOX. Home opener the following week vs. Carolina. Home Sunday nighter against Baltimore on Oct 11.
We've got NFL Sunday Ticket. Every game, every screen. Falcons get the biggest wall with sound on. The primetime game each week gets the second-biggest wall. Beyond that, if you want the Bills-Chiefs, the Cowboys-Eagles, or your fantasy player's game — we'll put it up.

What Sundays Look Like at LikeMinds
11:30 a.m. — We open at noon, but Sundays we come in early during football season. Bloody marys, the espresso martini, and the smash burger + fries are ready. You can start eating brunch while the 9:30 game (or whatever preshow you follow) plays on the big wall.
12 p.m. — Full Funk Brunch menu goes live. This runs until 5 p.m. Half-pound BBQ $18, one-pound $26, plus the full brunch plates lineup and Cinna Guys cinnamon rolls hot out of the oven.
1 p.m. — Falcons kickoff (most weeks). Sound on the main wall. Second bank of screens has the other regional broadcast. Third bank has the RedZone channel with the audio muted so you can see every scoring play.
4-4:25 p.m. — Late window games start. This is when the room really fills up. Brunch menu is still running for another hour if you missed the early wave.
8:20 p.m. — Sunday Night Football. If it's the Falcons, we're staying open on the sports side as long as needed. If it's a national game, sound on the primetime wall, kitchen open until 10.
10 p.m. — Kitchen closes. Bar's still open until midnight.
Fantasy People, We See You
If you play fantasy, you need:
- All the games at once — Yes, we have RedZone plus enough screens that we can pull up specific games on request.
- Reliable wifi for score-checking — We've got it.
- A place to sit for 6+ hours without getting hustled out — This is the difference between us and everywhere else in the neighborhood. Come at 1 p.m. and stay through the primetime kick. We won't rush you.
- Food that doesn't require you to leave your table during a drive — Sandwiches, wings, smash burgers. Set-and-forget eating.
Come for the 1 p.m. games, order a one-pound BBQ plate and a Cinna Guys peach cobbler roll, keep the drinks flowing, watch the 4 p.m. window, and either head out or stay for Sunday Night Football. That's the play.
