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.

Painted Park is the fresh-faced newbie of the Beltline, with a multilevel space to sip local beers and a green space that could be the talk of a lawn Facebook group. No one is really here for the food. The crowds milling around are here to catch sports on the many TVs, jump in for a round of ping pong, and open drink tabs in a place where the probability of meeting someone is legitimately likely. Cold beer, fall-off-the-bone ribs, cornhole on a patio—it doesn’t get much more summery than that.

If you’ve lived in Atlanta long enough, you’ve likely had a school field trip, family outing, or some sort of staged photoshoot at Southern Belle Farm. And if you’ve never been, consider picking fruit here a worthy notch on your Metro Atlanta punchcard. The McDonough farm and market is a fun throwback to a simpler life, when peaches came from trees and not carefully stacked mounds in the grocery aisle.

Just AddedSituated in a quiet corner in Ponce City Market, LaRaiyah’s Bodega feels like stepping into another ecosystem. Ferns hang like curtains, the flower wall looks like it’s been doctored up in Technicolor, and downbeat hip-hop makes the chaos outside feel miles away. Bring that friend who names their plants and keeps a misting schedule more detailed than a strategic report. Smoothies named after rap legends like Nipsey Hussle and Missy Elliott are excellent.

From the Miller Union team, Madeira Park in Poncey-Highland sets the new standard for Atlanta wine bars with New American plates that hit like Steph Curry from the logo and an excellent 11-page wine list you’ll want to photograph so you can stock up at home. So it’s absolutely a spot for people who talk tannins, but even if you can’t tell merlot from moscato, the outstanding food is reason enough to be here. The creamy gnocchi and juicy poulet rouge (available after 5pm) are must-orders.
