Guidebook for Atlanta
Food Scene
One of our favorites. Great seasonal, locally sourced food at reasonable prices. Fantastic craft beer selection. Walk down May, take a right on Flat Shoals and walk to the end. It is a half a mile away or so. Go on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday and have a drink the back room with skee ball, pool and other arcade type games!

Best bagels in Atlanta, get there before they sell out! Try the olive oil and sea salt with cream cheese, lox and capers. It is unbelievably delicious. (To Note: most orders are to go, although there are a couple of patio tables out front you can sit at).

A throwback to Venice Beach in the 70s, this little cafe is great for a breakfast taco and a mimosa, or any one of their delicious toasts. Along a section of the Beltline that is still developing, it's a terrific spot full of character.

My new favorite spot in Atlanta. Everything they do is gold. The food is amazing (get the bone marrow!), craft cocktails are built upon the classics, the wine and beer selection is carefully selected. And desserts are SO yum. Only open at night. And, the atmosphere is killer. It won best design in Atlanta in 2017.
