Megen & Dan
Things To Do
High Museum of Art
Check out some art ! Dan and I have gone on a few dates here and then walked down the street to Cafe Intermezzo or Colony Square - where tons of restaurants and bars reside!
Biggerstaff Brewing Company
Give each other a toast and grab a beer at Dan and I's favorite ATL brewery!
Moe's & Joe's
One of the top sellers of PBR in the nation every year. What more needs to be said?
Victory Sandwich Bar
You haven’t lived til you try a tiny sandwich and a whiskey Coke slushie
Georgia Aquarium
Truly first in its class. Free admission if it happens to be your birthday.
World of Coca-Cola
Not a place you would go to every weekend but definitely worth seeing once. Bonus points for sampling every flavor at the end. And every ticket purchase funds the scholarship paying for Megen’s tuition!
LLoyd's Restaurant & Lounge
An absolute favorite of ours. Late night slices for $3 after 9PM. Act like a local and order it with a Lloyd’s Light.
Fellini's Pizza
Visit the adorable downtown Candler Park and chow down on an Atlanta staple.
Victory C.C.
The geniuses behind the whiskey Coke slushie teamed up and put together a delightful cup of Joe.
Taqueria Del Sol
Megen’s hands down favorite. Walk across the street and play a round of mini golf at Putt Shack.
PERC
Originally founded in Savannah but a very welcome addition to one of our favorite neighborhoods (Virginia Highland). No better place to have an overpriced cup of coffee.
Manuel's Tavern
A longtime center of Atlanta Democratic activity and the place where Jimmy Carter announced his running for Governor.
Revolution Doughnuts & Coffee
This list wouldn't be complete without this treasure. Have the apple fritter and look down your nose at all other pastries forever after.
Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams
Over-priced ice cream that’s (almost) worth every penny. It’s no Paige’s Dairy Mart, but it will knock your socks off nonetheless. Up to a free trio (!) if visiting on your birthday.
A Cappella Books
Previously featured in the Wall Street Journal and Dan's personal favorite bookstore in Atlanta. Stop in and get him the signed copy of 'The Moviegoer' he's always wanted if you're looking to spend a few (thousand) dollars. Within reasonable walking distance to LLoyd's, Victory coffee, and Revolution Donuts, possibly even Biggerstaff Brewing if you're feeling particularly spry.
Muchacho
Tasty tacos, coffee, and cocktails. The perfect stop no matter the time of day.
Piedmont Park
One of Atlanta’s best parks and the site of many of the walks that built the foundation of our love! Also the place where Dan popped the question, narrowly avoiding the hail.
Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail
Part of an effort to make Atlanta more pedestrian friendly, and a direct link to many of the places on our list. Other honorable mentions along the trail are Dan’s first apartment (The Ford Factory Lofts), Ponce City Market, Krog Street Market, and Old 4th Ward Park. Stop at the fancy Kroger for a cheap slice of pizza and a cold beer.
