Freedom Farmers Market
One of our favorite markets in Atlanta! Sean and I often stop by with Ellie for fresh veggies and especially baked goods.
The Lost Druid Brewery
Did you know that our neighborhood was voted the Nation's Best Small Town Beer Scene! Lost Druid is a woman owned brewery that we go to for brunch, trivia, or just to hang out!
Little Cottage Brewery
This new micro brewery opened in May 2021! The couple who owns it lives in Marietta!
Three Taverns Craft Brewery
Just another great place for beer in our neighborhood!
Wild Heaven Beer
The last brewery on our list is Wild Heaven! Bonus - it is walking distance from the Lost Druid and Little Cottage!
Banjo Coffee
If you follow Katherine on Instagram, you know we go to Banjo about two or three times a week. Katherine highly recommends their BEC Everything Bagel (I get veggie sausage) and the Carmel latte! Sean will always get an americano and a croissant.
Decatur Square
The Decatur Square has great options for food, local gift shops, and people watching! Our favorite restaurants are White Bull (Italian with a great back patio) and Iberian Pig (Spanish Tapas)! Save room for Jeni's ice cream!
