Bars and Restaurants in Decatur, Brick Store Pub



Brick Store Pub

125 East Court Square, Decatur, GA 30030 

One of my favorite places in Decatur is the Brick Store.  For beer geeks, there's just no other place where you'll feel as at home.  From the staff to the patrons, these folks know their suds.  You'll find an incredible array of beers on tap, some of the finest (and most potent) beers crafted from around the globe.  The Brick Store takes the word ...

Your DeKalb Farmer's Market

3000 E. Ponce de Leon Ave., Decatur, GA 30030 

Talk about one of the area's "10 Best" !!!  The DeKalb Farmer's Market (officially and invitingly marketed as "Your DeKalb Farmer's Market̶ ;) is one of the finest in the world.  Yep, I said it...IN. THE.

Zagat Guide Atlanta



Visitors to Decatur will find an impressive array of chic cafes and restaurants to explore.  First-time visitors are often surprised to see the number of "Zagat Rated" signs in our restaurant's windows.  While most people hold the misperception that they will have to travel into the City of Atlanta for amazing food, you could just as easily stay right here in Decatur and have a fantastically memorable epicurean adventure. 

An exciting bonus is that you'll ...

Visiting Atlanta



Millions of visitors will travel to Atlanta this year.  Most of them will traverse the crowded city, both blissful and ignorant of what lies just outside of the city-center.  Don't get me wrong--Atlanta hosts some world-class attractions and amenities.  But if you're the kind of traveler who would like to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, the answer lies just a couple of miles away. 

The City of Decatur ...

Hartsfield Jackson Airport Named Busiest in U.S.



The numbers are in, and Atlanta is once again home to the busiest airport in America.  Over the past decade, Hartsfield Jackson in Atlanta and O'Hare in Chicago have vied for the top honor, with Chicago narrowly coming out on top a few times.  But for the past couple of years, the competition hasn't even been close, and Atlanta is hosting more air travelers than any other destination in the ...

Living in Decatur, Georgia



Living in Decatur, Georgia is a true delight!  This is a cozy, close-knit community that's just a fantastic place to live, work and play.  I've lived in a host of cities across America, and find that my favorite places maintain a nearly impossible balance--they're small enough that I know the grocery clerks by name, but large enough that I always find something interesting to do.  Decatur is definitely that kind of ...

The streets radiating out from Ponce are also packed with great boutiques, coffee shops, the Decatur Library, and the Decatur Rec ...
