On this episode of Butternomics, our host, Brandon Butler, sits down with Camaran Burke, founder of Holiday in Atlanta, to talk about what really goes into building a bar that becomes a community hub. Cam shares his journey from physics major to bartender to owner, and how the business of hospitality demands more than most people realize. From grief and burnout to building systems and culture, Cam gets honest about what it takes to survive in an industry where 16 bars in West Midtown have closed in just the last year. If you’ve ever thought about owning a bar, this conversation is your reality check—and your blueprint.
