Piedmont Park
Neighborhood: Midtown

1071 Piedmont Avenue N.E.
Atlanta, GA 31132

Sarah B. writes: Great place to run into friends, have an impromptu race, pet other peoples' dogs and see "interesting people." We usually sit at our favorite spot---the clubhouse turn*---and wax poetic.

*Although there's technically no "clubhouse" at this turn, it…

Sevananda Natural Foods Market
Neighborhood: Little Five Points

467 Moreland Avenue NE
Atlanta, GA 30307

nikki k. writes: I wish there were more places like Sevananda... it's a great place to go to when you are being a lazy vegan and don't want to cook! They have a hot bar right up front with veg/vegan entrees (depends on the time of day- mostly 9 am to 6 pm, times…

Georgia Aquarium
Neighborhood: Downtown

225 Baker St
Atlanta, GA 30313

Chrissy A. writes: The largest aquarium in the world...In Atlanta Ga...Wow, who would have thunk it?

I went here last week with work @ the company's expense...And all in all, I had a great time. It was my first time visiting...and so I didn't really have…

Dave & Buster's

2215 D and B Dr SE
Marietta, GA 30067

Katie W. writes: 3 stars = average(4 stars to the game area & 2 stars to the restaurant/bar)

It was a Tuesday night and the restaurant was nearly empty. The bar was covered with a large tarp (under construction) and initially the waitstaff was quite friendly to our…

WhirlyBall Atlanta

608 Holcomb Bridge Rd.
Roswell, GA 30075

Sarah B. writes: The first time I played WhilrlyBall I was "unfashionably" late meeting my fellow Yelpers. Why? Because...

My better half couldn't decide which cargo short / t-shirt / flip flop combo to wear.

Urban Body Fitness

742 Ponce De Leon Pl NE
Atlanta, GA 30306

Brandon C. writes: After I finally rid myself of my corporate Crunch membership, I settled into Urban Body Fitness. As an independent gym, I found the service to be excellent. The upkeep of the machines was also top notch, and they had a great variety of equipment.…

Chastain Park

4001 Powers Ferry Road NW
Atlanta, GA 30342

Drew W. writes: As far as the music venue side of things, Chastain is truly unique. If you can snag a table (and it will definitely cost you) for a show, I highly recommend it. Being able to bring your own food, wine, mood lighting, etc. makes for a change of pace…

Centennial Olympic Park
Neighborhood: Downtown

265 Park Avenue NW
Atlanta, GA 30313

Gabrielle S. writes: I think that with a lot of Atlanta's landmarks, it's easier to appreciate them fully when you have an understanding of their evolution, most especially "what they used to be". Centennial Olympic Park basically used to be parking lots. This is part…

Stone Mountain Park

1126 Stonewall Jackson Dr
Stone Mountain, GA 30087

Drew W. writes: Stone Mountain taught me who won the Civil War: the gift shops. I for one salute our new gift shop overlords.

It's a monument to both commercialism and Confederate generals. The view from the top of the mountain is the best part, I can do without the…

Kashi Atlanta Yoga
Neighborhood: Lake Claire

1681 McLendon Avenue
Atlanta, GA 30307

Susan V. writes: Enter the doors and feel the love. Kashi is both a yoga and service studio. In addition to wonderful yoga classes for every type of yogi, Kashi is a service ashram. They feed the homeless every week through a program called Streetmeals and they…

Candler Park
Neighborhood: Candler Park

585 Candler Park Dr NE
Atlanta, GA 30307

David B. writes: The city has completely re-done the basketball court and the soccer field at Candler Park. Even with the drought, the field is in pretty good shape. If you're around on a weekend morning during the Latin league games you can buy some excellent (and…

Freedom Park
Neighborhood: Poncey-Highland

North Avenue & Freedom Parkway
Atlanta, GA 30307

Drew W. writes: I tend to think of this as less of a park and more of an exercise venue. It's distinguishing feature is an abundance of paved trails for walking or jogging. It's a good place to run without having to worry about being mowed down by cell phone toting…

Lullwater Park

1463 Clifton Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30329

Ivan S. writes: Though Piedmont Park gets all the glitzy attention in Atlanta, a deserved centerpiece of greenery centrally located in the hustle and bustle, off to the side on Emory's campus, Lullwater Park plays Jan to Piedmont Park's Marcia. Such shouldn't be…

Golden Glide Inc

2750 Wesley Chapel Rd
Decatur, GA 30034

Nigel B. writes: Great place for skating. Friendly atmosphere. Low cover ($5) . Good 80s and 90s music mixed in with more contemporary music. Plenty of people doing high skill skating rink tricks alongside people struggling to stay upright. They offer skating lessons…

Yellow River Game Ranch

4525 Stone Mountain Hwy 78
Lilburn, GA 30047

Justin B. writes: I have many fond memories of this place as a kid growing up around the Stone Mountain/Gwinnett area; although, I should add that most of the memories involve the smell of animal poop.

They have all kinds of smelly animals that seem to adore visitors…

Cascade Family Skating

3335 Martin Luther King Jr Drive S.W.
Atlanta, GA 30331

Blu M. writes: Sunday night, adult night, $8 admission, $2 skate rental.
Good music. Great floor.

Atlanta Hot Yoga
Neighborhood: Buckhead

2140 Peachtree Rd
Suite 240
Atlanta, GA 30309

Maigh .. writes: I have horrible circulation. I'm terminally cold and my little fingers can be like ice cubes...which makes for hours of fun when you're 8 years old and tormenting siblings but pretty lame otherwise. Case in point: it turns my 80+wpm typing to a…

Whirlyball Atlanta

608 Holcomb Bridge Rd
Roswell, GA 30076

Drew W. writes: WhirlyBall is tough to explain to someone who has never seen it. I first tried it out in Texas when visiting a friend. Since then, I've had one birthday party and one wedding shower here at the Atlanta location. The wife and I were opposed to the…

Studio Lotus

1145 Zonolite Road NE
Atlanta, GA 30306

Larissa G. writes: So you know, I thought I could handle a Pilates class even though I haven't had time to seriously work out for nearly 6 months.

A friend invited me to try Studio Lotus, and she's in great shape so I agreed. My hindsight at this moment is screaming…

Express Bowling Lanes Inc

1936 Piedmont Cir NE
Atlanta, GA 30324

Drew W. writes: Wow. They really cleaned this place up. It's almost high class bowling! There are beers on tap other than High Life, Miller, and Bud. It hasn't lost any of its charm with the new coat of paint and a less virulent colored carpet.

You really get an…

La Fitness Sports Clubs

1155 Mount Vernon Hwy
Atlanta, GA 30338

Edward L. writes: This is THE morning gym of choice for me. Great crowd, easy availablity to all the free wieghts, machines and cardio equipment you could possibly want.
The 6:00am spin class with Randy rocks.

That Tattooed guy all over the place in great shape 6:00am…

Springs Yoga Studio

4920 Roswell Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30342

Susan M. writes: Great studio. The owners are Ruthann and David. They are the main instructors too and are fantastic people. They are warm and welcoming and keep their studio very clean. Classes on the weekend get very crowded which means get there early or go during…

Dekalb Medical Center

2701 N Decatur Rd
Decatur, GA 30033

Jessica H. writes: Now known as Dekalb Medical Center, it used to be called Dekalb General Hospital. I call it - the place where I was born! Thanks doctors for not squishing my head and for giving me an innie.

While I've never ended up in the hospital, I did spend…

Buckhead Baseball
Neighborhood: Buckhead

445 Pharr Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30305

Dad B. writes: A bit like Disney World. Seriously, when my youngest child declared ( at 6!) he was "el mas macho hombre" of our family we weren't sure he was really ours. My wife and I never cared much for highly structutred youth sports, but we knew our little one…

Zoo Atlanta
Neighborhood: Grant Park

800 Cherokee Ave SE
Atlanta, GA 30315

Joel C. writes: As Leslie said in her review, my company had a spirit event called "IBM Spring Fling @ the Zoo" I totally had to go since I have never been to Zoo Atlanta and when they said there was free popcorn and snow cones...I was sold! It's a nice perk to…

The Art of Wellness
Neighborhood: Atlantic Station

401 16th St. Suite 3000
Art Foundry Lofts at Atlantic Station
Atlanta, GA 30363

Lori S. writes: I never thought I ever say that I loved a gym, but I love MY gym.

It's so pretty and soothing to walk into, just like walking into a spa. All the staff are so nice and know you by name. The amenities are great: steam room, sauna, showers, you name…

Kangaroo Bob's

4335 Bells Ferry Rd.
Kennesaw, GA 30144

Amara K. writes: Love this place. A great way to get your under 5's to wear off some energy. It's small enough that you don't worry about them them being too far away or out of sight like at Monkey Joe's or Chuck E Cheese. They can't have as many kids in there so…

3106 ES&T
Neighborhood: Georgia Tech

300 Ferst Dr
Atlanta, GA 30308

Diane I. writes: come join me in the hottest spot in town.
that's right...my office.
a stunning view (that's actually true) of midtown and the hum of computers to lull you to sleep.

Youth Art Connection
Neighborhood: Downtown

63 Auburn Avenue
30303
Atlanta, GA 31132

Susan V. writes: What a worthwhile organization. As a teacher of a recycled material sewing reconstruction workshop, I worked at the Youth Art Connection for a week. During this time, I saw just what a great opportunity this place provides for Boys and Girls club…

Fitness Factory

749 Moreland Ave SE
Atlanta, GA 30316

Sara L. writes: I joined this gym a few months ago because it was the only one near my house. I recently quit.

Positives: the staff are always friendly and willing to suggest a new excercise to target whatever you are trying to work on. Its never crowded so, don't…

300 Atlanta Bowling

2175 Savoy St
Atlanta, GA 30341

Katie W. writes: Review #100 is for 300! 300 Atlanta Bowling, that is.

We came here after being summarily dismissed at another bowling alley which was more "in-town" (I won't name names here but I did write a review of this other place). After being so harshly…

Georgia Aquarium
Neighborhood: Downtown

Centennial Olympic P
Atlanta, GA 30303

Malika H. writes: Man this place is great! I thought I'd wait until it had been open for about a year before I'd even think about dealing with crowds.

I went there and was truly impressed. And believe me, that's not an easy thing to do for me. I had gone to the…

Tanyard Creek Park

Collier Rd at Walthall Dr
Atlanta, GA 30309

Drew W. writes: I hesitate to review this park, because it's one of those little secret getaways in Atlanta that I enjoy for its relative seclusion. But...to share is to care, I suppose.

Tanyard Creek Park is the site of some of the fiercest fighting during the…

Kangazoom

4479 Atlanta Road, SE
Smyrna, GA 30080

Sarah B. writes: I occasionally borrow my friends' kids and act the fool. Sometimes we swing & slide at Chastain. Sometimes we hit Chucky Cheese - "THE PLACE" to get pink eye. But I nearly lost all sense of reason the day we went to Kangazoom and I found myself…

Candler Park Golf Course
Neighborhood: Candler Park

585 Candler Park Dr
Atlanta, GA 30307

Michael B. writes: This review is kind of a preservation project, for I believe Candler Park is about to lose some of its Pasture Golf charm (http://www.pasturegolf...).

In other words, the grounds are starting to get too nice.

Here's what I love about Candler Park…

La Fitness Sports Clubs

2995 Cobb Parkway
Atlanta, GA 30339

Lauren S. writes: This is not my favorite LA Fitness gym in Atlanta. It's a little bit older and while it's huge, it is packed out every time I've ever been. Where the Buckhead and Dunwoody locations are packed out with people around my age with your random older…

Stone Mountain Park

US Hwy 78 E
Exit 8
Stone Mountain, GA 30087

Blake B. writes: This review is more aimed at the only reason I've ever come to Stone Mountain: the laser show. THE LASER SHOW! The name alone just espouses some hick-ass repercussions. "We're gunna go out and sit in a big ol' field with blankets and KFC and rub…

Georgia Tech's Campus Recreation Center
Neighborhood: Georgia Tech

750 Ferst Dr
Atlanta, GA 30332

angela y. writes: Cool....We can review anything on Yelp!
I love this gym!!! I pay $27 a month (staff rate) and I am actually motivated to workout when I come here.. I enjoy the rec pool (i am actually going to do some laps in a few minutes). I have tried the personal…

A Brand New You

927 Schoel Drive
Decatur, GA 30033

Donna E. writes: I highly recommend A Brand New You. I have lost 32 lbs to date (that's right Laura!). I learned how to weight train as well as eat properly. Laura emphasizes slow and steady weight loss. I actually look forward to exercising now. I started…
