Our Favorite Spots in Town

After many years of living in different neighborhoods of Atlanta, we have tried many restaurants and bars together. We love a delicious meal and a crisp drink at a fun spot—so you can trust this list. Everything here is within a mile (or so) radius of our hotel block. If you’re staying in a different part of town, send us a text and we’ll send more recommendations for your area.
