King Kong Wings in Hapeville is doing a whole lot. The massive menu has egg rolls, kimbaps in bowls, ramen, gyros, and phillys—all of which are honestly skippable. So you'll see far more folks in this small dining room hunched over wings or walking in for a 10-piece to-go. And that's exactly what you should be doing too. They’re small, fried hard and make a solid choice whether you’re grabbing wings for the game or settling into a hotel-bed dinner after a long flight.

There’s parking onsite and on the street at Summerhill’s Talat Market (just don’t block anybody’s driveway, OK?). Not paying to park means you’ll have more coins to order the bulk of things from the small, constantly changing menu. And you should, since Talat’s Thai dishes are better than anywhere else—like their vibrant, spicy green curry soup, fried octopus in fiery XO sauce, and a tropical margarita made with fresh pineapple and lime.

Open 24 hours, Monday-SundaySublime makes some of our favorite donuts in Atlanta—they have the perfect consistency, soft and pillowy, and a boat load of flavors, from the delicious dulce de leche to the sweet cream-filled A-Town Cream. Both the Georgia Tech and North Druid Hills locations are open 24/7, so you can enjoy their donuts whenever the mood strikes, which, if you’ve ever been to Sublime, is probably often.

MTH Pizza, from the team behind Roshambo, is a casual Smyrna spot that works best for low-stakes hangs—weekly trivia, post-kid-soccer dinners, or group catch-ups over a pie. The pizzas here are better than your average neighborhood pizzeria. The crust has a nice mix of crunch and chew, and they flex a few reimagined twists on classics, like the pecorino-loaded Marry Me Chicken pizza with tangy sun-dried tomatoes and white sauce. Wings are also worth adding, especially the plump lemon pepper.

Sometimes you want those big, made-for-weekends breakfast plates without the overstimulation (hookah, flower walls, and loud music) that usually accompanies Atlanta’s brunch scene. That's when Rosie’s Coffee Cafe in East Point steps in, offering a cozy, downhome atmosphere serving up generously portioned comfort food. The wood-paneled, sunlit space feels like a big neighborhood coffee shop, the kind you can settle into for hours.
