Comin’ in Hot! Join us in the ATL Airport District for the best
week of the year—Restaurant Week! With over 130 restaurants and bars in the District, participating patrons will enjoy signature menus at exclusively discounted prices at the best College Park, East Point, Hapeville, and Union City restaurants. The seventh annual event will highlight the area’s outstanding dining experiences and some of our favorite culinary crushes at impressive prices—$9, $19, and $29 lunch and dinner prix fixe menus or a 20% discount—your stomach and your wallet will be happy! Contributing restaurants will be announced soon, but here are some of the places we love, so start scouring their selections (or go ahead and visit them) now! Downtown College Park’s newest restaurant, Virgil’s Gullah Kitchen & Bar, celebrates the preserved heritage of the Gullah Geechee people through delicious, mouth-watering Creole cuisine. And don’t forget the drinks! The bartenders serve up some of the tastiest craft cocktails this side of the bayou. Next door, The Real Milk & Honey has delighted the District with its all-day 10-item brunch menu from Chopped Redemption winner

Chef Sammy Davis and partner Monique Rose Simms. Both restaurants are giving Main Street a whole new welcomed vibe. A neighborhood staple, Corner Tavern in downtown Hapeville is the place to go for delicious pub fare and good libations (and good vibrations!). With plentiful menu options, a large selection of craft beers and craft cocktails, plus darts, pool and bocce ball, you’ll never want to leave. And with a beautiful covered outdoor patio and plenty of room inside, you’ll never have to! Another favorite watering hole is Chairs in downtown East Point, directly across from the East Point MARTA train station. There’s always a great selection of draft brews to complement the not-so-typical bar food—their famous brisket is usually smoking on the back patio, so just let your nose do the walking. While you’re hanging out, play a competitive game of darts or pool and meet (or beat!) some of the locals. We’ll see you in the ATL Airport District on March 21-29, 2020.
