Things To Do In Midtown, Atlanta

Whether you're early to a morning meeting or have time to kill between presentations, you might be wondering what the city of Atlanta has to offer. With a population exceeding 447,000, it's easy to get lost in “the city in the woods”, especially for a visitor or recent transplant. If you're new to the city or are a local who hasn't explored much, here's some things to check out in Midtown.

Holeman and Finch Public House

Holeman and Finch Public House

2277 Peachtree Road NW  

Atlanta, GA  30309 

(404) 948-1175

 

If you just wrapped up a late meeting and need to refuel, head to Holeman and Finch Public House. Although the restaurant is known for their double patty cheeseburgers, they only make 24 each night! Served on house-made buns and with homemade ketchup, mustard, and pickles, the burger isn't on the menu but can be reserved at any point during service – sometimes they're sold out before the 10 PM serving time, so get there early and hope for the best. If you missed a burger during “burger time”, head to Holeman and Finch on a Sunday, where it's offered as a mainstay on their brunch menu.

 

High Museum of Art

1280 Peachtree St. NE

Atlanta, GA  30309 

(404) 733-4444

 

Whether you need a burst of creative inspiration or are entertaining a client who loves art, The High Museum of Art is a perfect midday excursion. As the leading art museum in the Southeastern United States, you'll find classic and contemporary art and photography, in addition to American, European, and decorative arts. Their selected exhibitions change on a quarterly basis, so check back frequently for exhibitions from your favorite eras in art history.
