Best Shopping Malls in East Cobb Area

"The titanic Sears, Roebuck & Co. building (1926) on the newly revitalised BeltLine in the Old Fourth Ward neighbourhood is one of the largest buildings in the Southeast United States. After Sears moved out in 1987, the city of Atlanta took up residence before the site was sold off in 2011 to be turned into this amazing shopping, dining, entertainment and residential space. The soul of Ponce City Market is in the Central Food Hall, which is along the same lines as Manhattan’s Chelsea Market for its globetrotting jumble of grab-and -go food stalls, sit-down restaurants and market vendors specialising in cheese, fresh bread, spices and fish."

"Ponce City Market is a former Sears, Roebuck & Co. retail store and regional headquarters that features shops, restaurants and offices. Make sure to go to the roof for great views, food and Skyline Park, with an 18-hole mini-golf course, Heege Tower and three-story slide. Location: 675 Ponce de Leon Ave."

"Leading up to the new SunTrust Park development, The Battery Atlanta is not only home to new shops, dining experiences and living quarters, but also to the Atlanta Braves baseball team. If you’re a big fan of the team, getting a picture of this sign with you underneath or just by itself will make you feel like you’re really at home in the Hollywood of the South. Parking in the red deck will get you closest to the sign’s location."

"Located in the mixed-used community The Battery, Omni Hotel at The Battery Atlanta is within steps of Truist Park, home of the Atlanta Braves professional baseball team. The area is also rife with premier office space, the Coca-Cola Roxy music venue, a variety of shopping, and great dining options. Less than a mile away are the Cobb Energy Centre and Cobb Galleria Centre entertainment and convention venues."

"Just up the street from the Atlanta Braves Stadium (officially named Sun Trust Park) in Cumberland, the Omni Hotel at the Battery Atlanta offers 4-star luxury accommodations for baseball lovers. Rooms and suites are dog-friendly, and the whole family can enjoy amenities including an outdoor pool, restaurant, and shuttle service. There is also a restaurant on-site, as well as a fitness center."

"Featuring more than a hundred iconic and trendsetting brands, Phipps Plaza is one of the most sought-after shopping destinations in Atlanta. Open daily from 10 in the morning until 9 in the evening with the exception of Sundays, when it opens at 12 closes at 5:30pm. Splurge on some smart wear and iconic streetwear from some of the famous clothing stores, including Gucci, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, and Louis Vuitton."

"Located within walking distance of Hotel Colee, Phipps Plaza pushes Atlanta’s fashionable foot forward with luxury shopping outlets in North Buckhead. 0.6 Miles from Hotel Colee. 3500 Peachtree Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30326"

"Scofflaw’s original 18,000 square-foot facility and a tasting room, located in the Bolton neighborhood, is still a favorite among locals and westside residents, much like the POG Basement IPA. Now the brewery has a second location nearby at the Works in Underwood Hills. Currently open Thursday through Sunday, Dr. Scofflaws includes a huge rectangular bar of taps offering the brewery’s standards and special releases. Grab a seat on the outdoor patio featuring the jagged remains of an old brick wall, outdoor heaters, and games."

"Coming off I-75-85 to the Carter Center (and a few blocks up from Auburn Avenue) on Freedom Parkway is Homage to King, a sculpture by Barcelona artist Xavier Medina Campeny. The raised statue shows Dr. King with his arm outstretched, welcoming visitors to the city. Location: Freedom Park Trail"

"On this tour, learn about the city’s history and architecture with a stop at the beautiful 1928 Swan House and a visit to either the Margaret Mitchell House, the governor’s mansion, or the Rhodes Hall. Details of the tour depend on the day of the week and other details, but with three historic homes and two famous neighborhoods, you will learn more about Atlanta than on any other city tour."

"This Romanesque-style home is a rare surviving example of the mansions that once lined Atlanta’s fashionable Peachtree Street. The house was built for furniture man Amos Giles Rhodes in 1902-1904, its distinctive design inspired by the castles Rhodes saw on a visit to Germany’s Rhineland. The house is now occupied by the Georgia Trust, which offers tours of the historic property."

"Chase Medlin, the former head brewer of Twain’s Brewpub and Billiards in Decatur, opened Contrast Artisan Ales in Chamblee in 2018. The brewery is located on Peachtree Road with an outdoor space out front. Some brews have hip-hop references, including the Boom Bap double dry-hopped IPA and the Hypnotize Biggie stout."

"Brewmaster Chase Medlin, the man behind Slow Pours Brewing, Twains and Locomotions, has opened another spot to get your ale on: Contrast Artisan Ales. Menu faves-to-be: Double Dry-hopped Fever Dream DIPA w/ Citra. The new brewpub is located in Chamblee, a short distance from Lowes home improvement."

"Now owned by Canadian cannabis company Aphria, the longtime Atlanta brewery still feels local, with socially distanced drinking in its mask-mandatory taproom, where wings, boiled peanuts and more are steadily coming off the line in the rear kitchen. The latest brews include the H.A.Z.Y double dry-hopped IPA and the Oasis line of hard seltzers, packed with electrolytes and vitamin C. The Woodlands Project, located next door to the main brewery, continues to be the place for experimental barrel-aged, Belgians and sour beers."

"Sweetwater is the OG in town, founded in 1997 by two college buddies inspired by the beers they'd had in Colorado. Their ever-expanding taproom is where you can get their well-known beers as well as ones only found here. They also have events throughout the year like music festivals and river cleanups."

"Near the ASW Distillery which abuts the Peachtree Creek, Sweetwater Brewing has been slingin' craft beers for over two decades. Every year they rock the SweetWater 420 Fest, with touring bands and other live music. SweetWater is an Atlanta staple."

"Head brewer Craig Mycoskie is fond of German style beers and has brewed beer in cities like Denver and Austin. He even volunteered at SweetWater Brewing in Atlanta while he was in college. At 26,000 square feet, Round Trip Brewing features a large, string-lit outdoor seating area, a 12-tap tasting room, and a 15-barrel brewhouse."
