Metro Diner and Bar

"Metro Cafe Diner opened in downtown Atlanta’s Peachtree Center in 2006. This is where to head for breakfast fare, wings, classic burgers, and even baby back ribs and platters of spaghetti at any hour. Currently, the restaurant closes at 4 a.m. (5:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays) to restock and refresh the menu, before returning to all-day and all-night dining at 6 a.m. Hours are extended when conventions and larger crowd events are in town. Metro Cafe Diner also includes a location open late in Stone Mountain." - Beth McKibben, Eater Staff

"This downtown Atlanta mainstay for breakfast, lunch, and dinner keeps the party going every night. The diner hosts a DJ and nightly karaoke downstairs starting at 8 p.m." - Eater Staff

"Open Until: 4am, Sun.-Thurs. | 24 hours, Fri.-Sat. Metro Diner is downtown, smack dab in the middle of the hotel district, so there’s a weird mix of locals and out-of-towners at this diner and bar. Step inside and you’ll instantly be reminded of Kusama’s infinity mirrors. Neon lights bounce off the mirrored walls, and if you’ve had a few, you could envision an extra staircase where there isn’t one—but we aren’t speaking from experience or anything. Sit on the upper level to order impossibly fluffy pancakes (easily the best thing on the menu) or an extra-cheesy Metro melt and heckle the folks singing karaoke out on the dance floor. In the wee hours on the weekends, it gets pretty packed and the DJ makes sure to keep the party pace ramped up with eclectic mixes." - juli horsford, nina reeder
