Atlanta Underground is a great place to go. During the day, the place is a mall. It has all kinds of shops, and I love going there. It is a very cool and neat place to go. They have all types of stores and that's why I go there. At night, this whole area becomes one party place. It's all bars and clubs then, and on Sundays, you can even get an alcoholic drink at 4am! But beware, at night, there is also a lot of cons going on, solicitors (for a good word), and thieves. But that comes with a place like this. I recommend Atlanta Underground.

Fernbank is a remarkable museum in the Emory-North Druid Hills area right on Clifton Road. It is an architectural marvel and the artifacts and activities inside are all very fun and very educational. Kids will love this place. They also have an IMAX theater for some fascinating IMAX movies.

We recently took a tour of the fabulous Fox Theatre and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I learned a lot of information about this impeccably preserved magnificent landmark that has been designated a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally built in the late 1920s as the Yaarab Temple Shrine Mosque, it has survived depression, mortgage foreclosure, bankruptcy, competition, and a force which affects all of us, age. Through the work of volunteers and skilled artisans, The Fox Theatre has not only survived but been restored to its original opulent grandeur. Today, it regally hosts a variety of programs - theatre shows (such as The Phantom of the Opera, Riverdance, Radio City Christmas Spectacular), Delta International Series' musical presentations (opera, Gilbert and Sullivan, Mozart, ballet), weddings and receptions, corporate affairs and cocktail parties. Whether it be in The Egyptian Ballroom, The Grand Salon, The Arcade, on The Terrace or the Theatre Stage, your wedding, reception or party will be unrivaled.

My family and I have been members to this museum for some time. Parking, as with everything in the area isn't great, especially during it's renovation, so go a little early, and be prepared to drive around a little bit.
Family days are well planned for children of all ages.
Even if there isn't a "Family Day", make sure you go, and check out a Family Pack from the front desk. It contains a scavenger hunt, and pencil and paper for the children to sketch what they see.
Just delightful.

This is THE place to go with the kids, with the date, with a group of friends even. They have six screens and for $6 each person you can watch a double feature. Now, granted it is about 100 ft. from the local landfill. And when the wind blows you really get a whiff. But it's loads of fun, they're all new feature movies and you can even sing to the show if you're in your car. I've never seen anything "inapropriate" going on, but it probably does!

This place was a blast. I went with my husband's work and I do think it was more fun because we knew a lot of people in the audience. The show is improvisation and they ask for audience participation which was easier to do since we knew almost everyone in the audience. The actors were really sharp and I was impressed at how good they were. My sides ached by the end of the night.
Only complaint is that they have pizza they reheat so the quality and selection isn't that great.

Dad's Garage was the envy of theaters across the nation for its ability to generate buzz and draw a young audience. That was a mixed blessing as its director was lured away by bigger money in a bigger city, but so far there's no sign that the theater is lagging under new leadership. Dad's Garage mixes it up with great improv nights that change their themes often enough to keep you coming back. They also have plays which aren't improved, but they're fun as well. The shows are fun and the place has a fun and casual vibe. You can take your beer and drinks to your seat and heckles from the audience are encouraged.

Criminal Records fits an astounding selection of albums in its cockeyed Little Five Points Storefront. Cds are displayed spine out behind glass in the massive, tall front counter.
Basically anything you could want, think or dream of is there—the most obscure indie releases, a huge selection of foreign imports and even rare limited releases and out of print albums.
They also have listening stations with all the latest releases, a selection of non-music items (obscure magazines, comic books, graphic novels, collectibles) and in-store performances from your favorite acts.
Put them to the test, they’ll have what you’re looking for.
