Lucian, a bookshop and wine bar from Katie Barringer, founder of the now-shuttered Cover Books and Jordan Smelt, formerly of Cakes & Ale and Bread & Butterfly, opened at Modera Buckhead this week. Named for the couple’s favorite artist—British painter Lucian Freud—the intimate, 2,149 square-foot cafe seats 40 guests and was inspired by the duo’s travels and combined passions for books and wine.
