As is usual, depends on the circumstances. If the establishment is defined as a "bar" under Georgia Law, meaning it derives more than 75% of its revenue from alcohol sales, the following code section 3.3.24.1 applies. No individual under the age of 21 shall enter or be allowed to enter a bar unless he or she is accompanied by his or her parent, guardian, or spouse who is 21 years of age or older. This subsection shall not apply to an individual while he or she is attending a live musical concert or live presentation of the performing arts for which he or she has paid an admission charge. This is a small number of establishments. Most liquor license holders are restaurants, an in those establishments there are no restrictions on either entry or where the minor may sit regardless of whether accompanied by a parent. However, many establishments seeking to preserve an adults only atmosphere at their bars will dissuade minors or parents with minors from sitting at their counter top seating and some will outright lie and say it's illegal, when there is no such law.
