Breakfast:
Buttermilk Kitchen: small southern breakfast joint with some of my favorite from scratch biscuits and gravy
The Chastain- located at chastain park, great breakfast bites and perfect after a nice walk around the Chastain loop (3 miles and some of the pretties houses)
The Daily- there’s a few locations but the Inman Park location is our favorite. Great to come here for breakfast and then walk over to the beltline!
Superica- this one has made the list twice, but it’s a really great brunch spot with some of the best pancakes and huevos rancheros.
Lunch and Dinner
Fudo- this is Ansley’s and my favorite sushi spot in Atlanta and only a 8 minute drive from the hotels. There most likely will be a 30 minute wait, but you can also try and make reservations ahead of time.
Blue Top- casual spot with a garage like feel that opens up to the outside on a nice day. Great for bar food or just to enjoy the day and a drink
Superica- our favorite Tex Mex spot in Atlanta. Incredible food and margaritas. You can add your name to a waitlist ahead of time.
Houston’s- if you’re looking for a nicer restaurant and want some of the world’s best spinach dip, look no further. Highly recommend coming with reservations.
Flower Child- great healthy lunch spot walking distance from both hotels. Sandwiches, wraps and salads.
Yeppa- fun and trendy Italian restaurant in the shops of buckhead. Great for a drink as well!
Bar Taco- garage style and casual taco place. Great guac, poke (trust me on this one) and tacos. Fun atmosphere and perfect for a nice day.
Felinis- great NY style pizza restaurant and enjoy a beer on their outdoor patio.
La Fonda Latina- casual cuban restaurant with great salsa, daiquiris, and anything Cuban.
The beltline is a great and fun place to hangout during the day. It’s a large walking path lined with restaurants, shops and bars.
Make sure to check out Kroger St Market, New Realm Brewing, Barcelona, or Hampton + Hudson for great food.
Our favorite spots for a drink are the rooftop of Ponce City Market, Ladybird, New Realm Brewing, Lingering Shade, and Park Tavern (outdoor bar that sits right on Piedmont Park).
All of these can be walked from anywhere on the beltline. 5-15 minute walk depending on where you are and want to go.
If you get a nice day out and want to talk a nice walk, we couldn’t recommend this more. It has some of the most beautiful houses in Atlanta (feel free to walk down some of the side streets too) and is a 3 mile walk encompassing the baseball fields, golf course and playground.
Once you’re done, check out the Chastain for breakfast or a late lunch. Great coffee and breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and the best burger in town!

Ladybird on the beltline- perfect for a nice day outside. Huge outside area with tables. Very popular spot- must go to.
Lingering Shade- 2 minute walk from ladybird. Great for cocktails or a casual beers. Inside and outside seating
New Realm- very popular brewery on the beltline. Great place to start!
Johnnys Hideaway- not a place you probably want to visit during the day but one of the most fun bars at night. An Atlanta staple and great dancing. Close to the hotels
Clairmont Lounge- you just need to look this place up. Only for the night! One of the most famous bars in Atlanta and a memorable experience. Bring cash too.
St Regis Bar- upscale bar perfect for a night cap after the wedding
My favorite dive bar in Atlanta is hands down Northside Tavern. Very fun place to go after a wedding. Small hole in the wall bar that always has a great music (loud).
