Tons of shopping, restaurants, and a movie theater! Kid friendly activities as well. We especially love eating at Rumi's Kitchen!

Some of the best restaurants here are South Main Kitchen or Smokejack BBQ for more casual dining. There are also breweries like Jekyll Brewing and Currahee Brewing.

Miles long walking trail in Midtown, Atlanta, about 30 minutes south of Alpharetta. Breweries, cocktail bars, and restaurants, this is the perfect way to spend a day in Atlanta. Some of our favorites include Lingering Shade, Ladybird (kid-friendly), Delbar, and The James Room. For the easiest parking, go to New Realm Brewing.

Located about 30 minutes from Alpharetta. If you go, make sure to stop by Park Tavern for a drink! The easiest parking options are either at Park Tavern or at the Botanical Gardens.

Located about 15 minutes from Alpharetta, Canton Street has restaurants, bars, and shops. Some of our favorites include Roux, Gate City Brewing, Variant Brewing, and Mac Mcgee's Irish Pub.

The beautiful winery where we got engaged! Good wine and lots of outdoor seating, located about one hour away from Alpharetta.

Helen is a German themed town where they celebrate Oktoberfest for the whole month! It is also located 10 minutes from Mount Yonah Trailhead, which is a beautiful (but slightly strenuous) hike.

Located 20 minutes north of Alpharetta, this is a shorter hike with great views.
