Fox Theatre
Neighborhood: Midtown

660 Peachtree St NE
Atlanta, GA 30308

Lauren S. writes: Oh I love the Fox. I can't believe they once thought of tearing this beauty down.

Eddie's Attic

515 N McDonough St
Decatur, GA 30030

Berlin B. writes: I give Eddie's a 4.5. It is an amazingly cool environment for just relaxing and listening to acoustic music. I am really starting to annoy the staff there because I keep thinking I can walk in there without paying the not so expensive $5-10 cover…

Martin Luther King Jr Center

450 Auburn Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30312

InfodivaMLIS B. writes: Yo Martin. Happy Birthday To Ya. I am singing the Stevie Wonder Song for you.

Neighborhood: Buckhead

3380 Peachtree Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30326

The Tabernacle
Neighborhood: Downtown

152 Luckie St.
Atlanta, GA 30303

Falicia G. writes: I love this venue! I saw The Roots here so my review is totally biased. The show was off the hook! The reason being that in the Tabernacle, you have a great view from everywhere! Lupe Fiasco opened up and from the balcony, you could see that the…

Eyedrum

290 Martin Luther King Jr Dr S
Atlanta, GA 30312

Michelle K. writes: I had an art show here last semester and it was really cool. It's just an open area that allows acts or art projects from pretty much any line - paintings, media, entertainment, etc. I was part of Georgia Tech's Listening Machines night, and it was…

Landmark Midtown Art Cinema
Neighborhood: Midtown

931 Monroe Drive
Atlanta, GA 30308

Shakespeare Tavern
Neighborhood: Downtown

499 Peachtree St NE
Atlanta, GA 30308

Justin B. writes: In no way, shape or form will I ever associate myself with going to the theater on a regular basis; mainly, because I prefer the company of sports and my testosterone driven man status; however, I heard about the Shakespeare Tavern from a reliable…

Churchill Grounds
Neighborhood: Midtown

660 Peachtree St NE
Atlanta, GA 30308

J C. writes: 'Straight No Chaser'. That's what I think of when I think of Churchill Grounds. My step-father brought me up listening to all of the classic jazz artists...Mingus, Parker, Davis, Evans, Silver...on and on. Because of that exposure I grew a…

Smith's Olde Bar
Neighborhood: Morningside / Lenox Park

1590 Piedmont Ave NE

Atlanta Symphony Orchestra

1293 Peachtree St NE Ste 300
Atlanta, GA 30309

Atlanta, GA 30309

Youngblood Gallery and Boutique
Neighborhood: Grant Park

629 Glenwood Ave
Atlanta, GA 30312

Brian H. writes: Youngblood rules the school. I have been hip to it for a couple of years now, and I think the initial regrets about not getting hip sooner have worn off. Seriously, it's the cat's pajamas.

Let's be honest with each other. Where else are you going to…

Philips Arena
Neighborhood: Downtown

1 Philips Dr NW
Atlanta, GA 30303

Brandon C. writes: I've been here more times than I care to remember, for both sporting events and concerts. I was usually in a luxury suite paid for by my friend's firm (what, you thought my cheap ass company would get a luxury suite? PUH-LEASE, they wouldn't even…

Plaza Theatre

1049 Ponce De Leon Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30306

Ivan S. writes: I will freely admit that I'm a sucker for places like the Plaza Theater. Tiny, little Davids battle corporate-backed Goliaths with their THX sound and their massive screens and their comfortable stadium seating. Stupid, sexy stadium seating. There…

The Northside Tavern
Neighborhood: Westside / Home Park

1058 Howell Mill Rd NW
Atlanta, GA 30318

Rebecca O. writes: Sunday night blues at Northside Tavern ... my new favorite activity.

The Fat City Wildcats rock my world. I saw them play for the first time last night and am hooked. Thankfully, they play every Sunday night so I can feed my addiction. They play blues…

Johnny's Pizza & Subs

676 Highland Ave NE
Atlanta, GA 30312

Deanna J. writes: Word on the street is that one of our New York (read: Pizza Expert) friends endorses Johnny's as good pizza. In fact, apparently it's his new Atlanta pizza crush.

Though this is a chain, I get the feeling that each location has its own flavor. The…

14th Street Playhouse
Neighborhood: Midtown

173 14th St NE
Atlanta, GA 30309

Cory F. writes: Okay, I'll admit I'm biased on this one because I work here, BUT, I wouldn't work here unless they were good people to work with and produced quality material!

I've spent 6 months here in Atlanta performing on the mainstage of the 14th Street…

Center for Puppetry Arts
Neighborhood: Midtown

1404 Spring Street N.W.
Atlanta, GA 30309

nikki k. writes: Most childless adults have no idea this even exists- shoot, I didn't until my friend suggested that we go!

The lure for me was being able to see a skeksis from my childhood favorite "The Dark Crystal", and oddly, Madame from the TV show "Madame's…

Turner Field

755 Hank Aaron Dr SW
Atlanta, GA 30315

Joseph D. writes: A nicely designed stadium but I cringe everytime i hear the name "Turner Field." One man's ego gone out of control. I will say it's easier to say than Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. My main complaint is not so much with the design of the stadium…

AMC Parkway Pointe 15

3101 Cobb Pkwy
Ste 201
Atlanta, GA 30339

Lauren S. writes: I always go to this AMC because it is convenient and right around the corner. It is a newer theater and its....a theater. Nothing spectacular, but it's got mega screens, good sound, and stadium seating.

I saw "300" here and I would highly recommend…

Lefont Theatre Sandy Springs

Sandy Springs Circle NE
Sandy Springs, GA 30358

Edward L. writes: This theatre is my current favorite place to see a movie in Atlanta... they server Corbin Canyon Merlot & Zin, Corona & PBR not to mention Hebrew National dogs...
The bathrooms have movie quotes that act as fortune cookies for the slightly…

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…

The Earl
Neighborhood: East Atlanta Village

488 Flat Shoals Rd
Atlanta, GA 30316

Berlin B. writes: People seem to go the Earl for the bands and cool east-atlanta-show-off-you r-tats environment. I usually end up at the Earl for the drink. Of the times that I have gone (normally around Sunday brunch time), I have missed the bands and only hung…

The Drunken Unicorn

736 Ponce de Leon Place
Atlanta, GA 30306

Valentina V. writes: Unicorns here, unicorns there...Deanna said it loud and clear, there is nowhere in the U.S. featuring more unicorn paraphernalia. You can't, CAN'T ignore the fact that you are in an environment that resembles some sort of underground, dark version of…

Blind Willie's

828 N Highland Ave Ne
Atlanta, GA 30306

Falicia G. writes: This place is a gem in the Highlands. Walking around outside you may feel like you are in yuppie-ville but once you step into Blind Willie's the crowd changes into a more diverse (age, culture, style) crowd that can appreciate good live music.

I went…

Rialto Center for the Arts
Neighborhood: Downtown

80 Forsyth St
Atlanta, GA 30303

Drew W. writes: I've lost count of how many films I've seen here during the last few years of the Atlanta Film Festival. Everything from nature documentaries to martial arts flicks featuring blind swordsmen. One of my favorite events I saw here was a cultural…

Apache Cafe
Neighborhood: Midtown

64 3rd St NW
Atlanta, GA 30308

Julia H. writes: I saw a super-long poetry reading at the Apache.

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…

Woodruff Arts Center
Neighborhood: Midtown

1280 W Peachtree St NW Lbby
Atlanta, GA 30309

Jennifer M. writes: This review is only for the Hertz stage because (I am ashamed to admit) I haven't really been to any other part of Woodruff yet.

AMC Barrett Commons 24

2600 Cobb Place Ln NW
Kennesaw, GA 30144

It is hard for me to pick…

Roxy
Neighborhood: Buckhead

3110 Roswell Rd NW
Atlanta, GA 30305

JAYCE B. writes: I remember really enjoying playing the Roxy.
We had perfect parking all day and a lot of time to roam around... I think I recollect a Wendy's one way and a Border's the other so between the two, I was set!
Oh and a liquor store in back which served a…
