Classical buffs and cult noir fans alike will find something on the calendar at the city’s premier orchestra house.
Skip across Peachtree Street from a show at Fox Theatre for the bar scene at hotel resto Livingston, or make a weekend of it at this recently revamped landmark.
Hosting doggy days to jazz fests, the park remains the city’s big green oasis. Pack a basket for a picnic, fill up at the green market, and soak in the sun. There are plenty of grassy knolls to go around.

If it’s throwback fun you’re after, you’re bowling up the right alley. Technicolor digs, a full bar, and a traditional diner menu are a nostalgic twist on late-night fun.
An ecologically sound bed and breakfast with all the midcentury glamour of a Betty Draper getup. Vintage handbags in the front parlor, showers the size of small apartments, and a mean daily tea service.
The bar downstairs is smokey (in a good way) and the upstairs music venue plays host to rock locals and visiting players.
Beer barrel and chalkboard specials balance out floating glass walls and slick midtown decor. Take a meal on the busy city-front patio or hop upstairs for skyline views and a gastropub menu that warrants more than a Pabst.

The city’s buzzing art garden, greenhouse, and venue. Orchid care clinics, traveling sculpture exhibits, and nighttime concerts galore.
Renzo Piano’s Midtown ode to art and light. The city’s largest exhibits — sourced from the Lourve to ancient China and beyond — are housed. The inspired gift shop and on-campus restaurant Table 1280 are sense swayers, too.
Culture hounds and music lovers (oh, and boys looking to impress) make dates to take in sweeping productions at the city’s premier orchestra house.
