Restaurant/bar with a old timey vibe and the biggest selection of oysters I've ever seen. It's a converted train station with some of the great old fixtures still in place. They also have very talented mixologists on staff...it's fun to sit at the bar and watch them do their magic.

It's a new, local restaurant (just 1.3 miles away) with a cute outdoor back patio area. The bar and back patio area are both great for unique bar bites and drinks. The very small restaurant area serves up a small menu of just 4 entrees and appetizers. One of my current local favorite spots to get together with friends. If you're feeling up to a 15 minute walk through the local neighborhoods, it's also a pleasant walk.

Stone Mountain is a quartz monzonite dome and the site of Stone Mountain Park in Stone Mountain, Georgia. Stone Mountain is well-known not only for its geology, but also for the enormous rock relief on its north face, the largest bas-relief in the world.[1] The carving depicts three Confederate figures during the Civil War: Stonewall Jackson, Robert E. Lee, and Jefferson Davis. Spread across 3,200 beautiful acres, Stone Mountain Park is Georgia’s most-visited attraction – and with good reason. The fun never ends at Stone Mountain Park, where family activities reign during every season.
