"Known for its beautiful historic craftsman bungalow homes, cozy porches, and tree-lined sidewalks, Virginia-Highland is a great spot to pair brunch with boutique shopping or dinner with a patio. The main drag is North Highland Avenue, where you’ll find people roving from eatery to clothing store to gelato shop to pub at all hours of the day. It’s relaxed, neighborly, family-friendly, and shaded by oaks." - MATADOR_NETWORK
"A visit to the Virginia-Highland neighborhood (named for the intersection of Virginia and North Highland Avenues) is like a mini city break, within the city limits. Just 10 minutes from downtown Atlanta, historic craftsman homes and cottages line the streets of the picturesque neighborhood that's a lovely spot for a morning or afternoon stroll. There’s also a booming retail district that includes Atlanta institutions like George’s, a bar established in 1961, and brunch go-to Murphy’s. Exciting newcomers are Kinship Butcher & Sundry and Academy Coffee; the latter is known for its cocktail-like coffee drinks (think lattes with bitters and fanciful syrups). Other must-visit spots include Doughnut Dollies and Virginia Highland Books, an independent bookstore with a cushy seating area to sit and read over a coffee." - Lia Picard, Jennifer Bradley Franklin
"Ama, a Beltline grilled seafood restaurant by chef Nhan Le, could open by this fall with help from former Atlanta District 2 councilman Kwanza Hall." - Eater Staff
