Known for its beauty and affluence, Buckhead is one of Atlanta’s most prestigious neighborhoods. This dynamic suburban town just north of Downtown Atlanta is a trendy and chic destination, with critically acclaimed restaurants, renowned shopping, intriguing art installations, and memorable landmarks all within easy reach. Here’s a closer look at just a few of the locals’ favored destinations.

Shop at One of the Best Shopping Malls in the Southeast

For the fashionista always searching for the latest trends, Lenox Square Mall has an array of stores to choose from. With four stories and more than 250 stores, the mall ranges from exclusive designer boutiques to casual staples, ensuring plentiful options for every member of the family. Five restaurants and an extensive food court make the mall a popular dining and entertainment venue.

Explore Local History at the Atlanta History Center

What once began as a small historical center has grown over the decades to encompass 33 acres of curated Goizueta Gardens, four historic houses, varied programming, and award-winning exhibitions. The Atlanta History Center showcases all of Atlanta’s vast history, from the state’s original Muscogee and Cherokee inhabitants to present-day stories of Atlanta citizens. Visitors can also explore nine distinct gardens with acres of preserved woodlands or discover some of the city’s oldest surviving houses that are on property.

Admire Contemporary Artwork

Buckhead Art & Company is one of Buckhead’s hidden gems, and a premier destination for contemporary artwork. This locally owned art gallery provides a space for local artists to flourish, with a 4,000-square-foot gallery that exhibits proactive pop works, harmonious landscapes, timeless paintings, meticulously crafted designs, and more. All the pieces within the gallery are also for sale, allowing visitors to take home any vibrant artwork that catches their eye.

Discover an Ancient River in a Modern City

For those who cherish spending a day outdoors, the Chattahoochee National Park is a great place for a picnic, bike ride, or a leisurely stroll. Over 48 miles of rivers flow through the park, offering excellent opportunities for a leisurely paddle, canoe, or kayak ride to observe the area’s flora and fauna. Fishing in the Chattahoochee River yields year-round catches of trout, bass, catfish, and other species.

Indulge in Critically Acclaimed Restaurants

Known among gourmands and foodies as a top dining destination, Buckhead has an array of extraordinary restaurants, cafés, bakeries, and eateries. Enjoy innovative and carefully curated farm-to-table menus at Atlas Buckhead or Aria Restaurant. Head to Storico Fresco for fresh pasta dishes, Chai Yo for a high-end take on classic Thai dishes, or another of the many eclectic international cuisine venues. No matter where residents choose to dine, there is a perfect choice for every mood, taste, and occasion.
