Food scene

This is a busy breakfast and lunch spot just down the hill. Serves classic Southern fare in a super funky, artsy space. This place is an institution. On weekends, prepare to wait up to an hour to get a table - well worth it for the Comfy Chicken Biscuit and the live xylophone set on Sunday mornings.

Right around the corner, Muchacho has some of the best breakfast tacos around. Tons of outdoor seating right on the Beltline, this is a great place to bring a family, your laptop, or just do some people watching.

This little bodega has essentials - and they make fantastic burgers. We like the Cabbagetown Classic, but they're most famous for their sliders - and they make Impossible Burgers, too. Pick up some fries, beers, and a souvenir hat.

This place has great seafood and cocktails. It's a cool spot tucked into kind of uncool environs, but the quality of their food and design makes up for it!

What can we say about Grindhouse? Their burgers really are killer. We like the classic Grindhouse style with cheese fries and a beer, but their salads with a burger patty are also enormous, filling, and about a week's worth of greens. A great spot to hang at the bar and watch one of the weird, classic movies on the projector.

Our go-to for pizza, cheesy bread, and red wine. Right of the Beltline, this place can get a little busy but is totally worth it. They do dine-in and take out.

Three Taverns makes great beers, but the setting is what distinguishes this spot. They've got hammocks, large group fire pits, and tons of seating. Super dog friendly, the brewery's spread over a huge lawn. Food options are kind of limited, so order food to the Brewery or grab some takeout from Wonderkid, right around the Corner.

This place kind of feels like a taco truck that just decided to stay put. Supremo's got great tacos, super tasty aguafresca -- but the churros are where it's at. Order a few tacos (we like the mushroom and barbacoa) and enjoy them on the little standing-room patio.

This is a VERY popular spot. The attraction: they have a zillion beers on tap and you can pour your own using a little automized bracelet. Also nice - you can pour as much as you want of each beer. Just want to sample the Hefeweizen? Sure. Then an ounce of the IPA? Yeah. They also serve hearty pizzas and bar fare.

A great bar easy walking distance from the house, this place shows sports on the TVs, has some arcade games, tons of outdoor seating, and is a great place to grab a casual, neighborhood-y drink. Their menu is surprisingly good and changes frequently.

Sightseeing

Outsiders might think treating your cemeteries like parks is kind of spooky, but in the South, cemeteries are very much part of the community. Lots of famous local folks are buried here (like Gone with the Wind's Margaret Mitchell), and the Friends of Oakland Foundation is constantly caring for and beautifying the grounds. This is a great place for a stroll, a picnic, or even a live concert (try Tunes from the Tombs in the summer time). Check their website for special events and guided tours.

Grant Park is a lovely place to stroll. Spend the afternoon picnicking, playing on the sports fields, letting your dog loose at the dog park, or visit the zoo!

The Martin Luther King memorial is very moving, contemplative place. A great place for travelers to learn about MLK and Atlanta's significance to the Civil Rights Movement.
