Food Scene

Lots to do and see in this area! Worth paying for roof access and a meal overlooking the downtown skyline. Park in the garage and allow for time to walk around the area and explore the park and water feature across the street to the south and along the beltline.

A favorite of mine for decades. Great food at reasonable prices. Close to Historic Inman Park, the Eastside beltline, and the King Center.

Also another favorite eatery for decades. I think that says a lot in a market of foodies where a restaurant has this kind of longevity. The dining outside reminds me of a quiet European town.

The staff is amazing here, and the food comes from Greek family recipes! Don't miss the specials, either!

Trust me. You've never experienced anything like this. Food from all over the globe. This place is worth going to just for the international experience, and I bet you'll not leave without being amazed that there is also a cafeteria here. The sheer amount of selection here boggles the mind.

I've been co.ing here for years. The history alone is interesting. It was a hydro-powered factory during the Civil War and you can still see where the water was diverted. The ruins of the factory are still there, too. Picnic areas are nearby, too. As is 6 Flags Theme Park.

Feeling adventurous? Call ahead and get a ranger-led guide from here up Arabia mountain. Or just go to have a lovely time outside with a few easy hikes right out of the parking area.

One of the many things to visit on the Eastern Beltline. This park is close to Ponce City Market, too. From here you can quickly reach Piedmont Park and the Atlanta Botannical Gardens.

Easily the best view of the Atlanta skyline from the gardens at the center. Don't miss nearby Little 5 Points or Pince City Market!

Still within easy reach of my place (less than 10mi away), the eateries and highly walkable Square is a must visit. Bookshops, artisans, and music all in one place. You can get here using Marta, too!

How could you visit Atlanta and not spend some time walking around outside? So many things to do with the Park at the center of it all. CNN, Aquarium, College Football Hall of Fame, and lots of great food!

Besides being one of the largest salt-water aquariums in the US, the food here is pretty great, too.

This is a must-see, private owned gallery in West Midtown. If you go, tell Robin I sent you. If you're here on a Friday, you might luck out and get to see a show opening.

History

Want to know why East Point is southwest of Atlanta but named as it is? Besides Googling it, you could easily stop here (you can walk from my property just over a mile) and find out more about the City you are staying in. ;)

The Atlanta History Center got a major face-lift in 2014. Close to buckhead and not far from the new home of the Atlanta Braves, it's definitely worth a visit!
