A High-Tech Take on a Classic Game
Puttshack Atlanta - Dunwoody redefines the miniature golf experience, moving beyond traditional windmills and obstacles. Reviewers consistently praise the technologically advanced nature of the courses. Each ball is electronically tracked, automating scoring and adding a modern twist to the gameplay. There are currently at least four distinct 9-hole courses - Emerald and Sapphire being specifically mentioned as enjoyable options - with embedded interactive games and trivia integrated within the rounds.
Beyond the tech, commenters highlight the overall "vibe" of the venue. The atmosphere is described as lively, fun, and possessing a distinct "city vibe." It seems equally suited for a casual family outing, like the many noted on a Sunday afternoon, or a more energetic night out with friends. Accessibility is well-addressed with wheelchair accessible entrances, parking, and restrooms available. Puttshack offers an experience that actively engages players with more than just skillful putting.

Food, Drinks, and Stellar Service
While the mini golf is certainly a draw, Puttshack Atlanta - Dunwoody consistently receives rave reviews for its food and beverage offerings. The menu appears to be surprisingly diverse and high-quality for a mini golf establishment. Popular choices include the Lebanese Hummus, Thai Fried Chicken (described as smoky and delicious), and Shiitake Mushroom Potstickers with peach dipping sauce – frequently hailed as the standout dish. The OG Burger with bacon also earns considerable praise, disappearing quickly from the table, and flatbread pizzas (Pitmaster and Southerner) are also a hit.
However, the true icing on the cake appears to be the exceptional service. Multiple reviews specifically name-drop staff members, including Jada, Amicia, Tiffany, and Kyle, all receiving high marks for their friendliness, attentiveness, and willingness to go above and beyond. Kyle, in particular, is mentioned multiple times for excellent recommendations on both food and drinks, ranging from a Cinnamon Toast Crunch shot to a refreshing Peach Tea on Peachtree.
