Midtown to receive first Georgia location for the burger restaurant.

BGR The Burger Joint is opening its first Georgia location in Midtown, Hunt Archbold with Midtown Patch first reported.

The quick service burger restaurant will replace the now shuttered Doc Green’s, at 264 19th street, inside Atlantic Station.

Brian Dralle, the franchise of the Which Wich Superior Sandwiches located adjacent to the Doc Green’s space, will open the BGR: The Burger Joint at the mixed-use development in Midtown.

The Virginia-based chain has 18 locations nationally, according to its website. Plans for more locations in 2012 are underway.
