Adventures in the ATL

The Big Peach has so much to offer. It is by far the flavor of the South. If you’re looking for a weekend getaway, with big city flair, Atlanta has you covered.

When you touch down at Hartsfield Jackson (ATL) Airport, the world’s busiest airport, you will already know that there is so much to do in the A. Take the MARTA (the metro) to downtown and check in to the Westin Peachtree Plaza, which is an iconic landmark and boasts 72 floors of guest suites. It also has the famous Sundial Restaurant with 360 views of all of Atlanta. Definitely start your Friday night with Dinner there, then head down the street to a speakeasy called the Red Phonebooth. Yes, it actually has a red phonebooth and you need the phone number to get in. Dance into our DMs for the number. When you get inside, we HIGHLY recommend the smoked old fashioned, it is their signature cocktail for a reason.

The next day, take a trip to the Atlanta Beltline, which is growing and growing every week. With breweries, restaurants, and food halls, there are so many options. If we could make a suggestion, start with the Krog Street Market and then head north on the Beltline to Ponce City Market, and maybe stop a few places in between. After a full day of adventure, freshen up back at your hotel, then head to the Highlands for some evening cocktails. We recommend Neighbors and Dark Horse. The later hosts live band karaoke, and if you have the singing chops, you may want to get there before 9pm so you can make the list.

To close out your weekend, head to West Midtown for Brunch. If you want a specific recommendation, we highly recommend West Egg, but be prepared to wait. Trust us, it’s worth it, and you can wait with a brunch bevie, so it’s not too bad.

Once again, we hope you enjoy our trip tips and please let us know if we can offer any other suggestions. Dance into our DMs or shoot us an email at hello@bowtiedexperiences. See you soon!
