*Walking distance*
One of my all time favorite restaurants which makes it dangerous being in walking distance. ;) Amazing ambiance owners and staff who are just all around fun and engaging ppl. My daughter jokingly refers to it as a “Cheers Bar for Classy Hipsters” lol Both Dining and Bar menu are incredible, inexpensive really great and unique small seasonal plates at the bar, hands down the best grilled cheese sandwhich you have ever had and did I mention they serve food till 11pm or midnight almost every night? I dare you to disagree! ;)

New to Eastlake but an Atlanta staple with consistently delicious latin food fare. I highly recommend the seafood pallela, salmon salad & chicken soup. Affordable and not stingy with their serving size.

603 Atlanta StZooming forward a few eras, Atlanta rollerskate culture has thrived for decades, in no small part because of Cascade Skating Rink. Since opening in the Cascade area in 2000, it’s been a favorite place for skate lovers to gather, and you can marvel at acrobatic rollerskaters, dance teams and novices together at the rink. Celebrities like Beyoncé, Sean “Love” Combs (formerly known as P. Diddy), Usher and Magic Johnson have all been spotted reveling in Cascade’s lively energy.
