Ponce City Market

"Ponce City Market is a massive food hall, shopping haven, and Atlanta landmark (the historic structure used to be the Sears, Roebuck & Co warehouse and later our city hall). On weekends, this place can get stadium-levels congested, but the nice variety of restaurants and convenient access to the Beltline make visiting PCM a must for out-of-towners. The main food hall has solid options like H&F Burger (home of one of the best burgers in America), a fast-casual Mediterranean spot, and a sit-down refuge to chill out with a margarita and giant burrito. For a less crowded scene, get a ticket up to The Roof to score brilliant skyline views of the city and play carnival games and mini golf." - nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard

"A mixed-use development with a food hall, shops, and offices, known for its vibrant atmosphere and variety of dining options." - Henna Bakshi

"The former Sears, Roebuck & Co. store and distribution center was sold in 2010 to Jamestown Properties and became the new Ponce City Market, a sprawling five-building, 3 million-square-foot community hub of offices, residences, retail, and the renowned food hall with more than 30 concepts for dining and drinks, plus the rooftop Nine Mile Station." - Tori Allen

"The team behind El Super Pan brings another restaurant to Ponce City Market with La Metro. It's a tapas restaurant with snails, sardines, croquettes, and paellas. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"Atlanta’s affinity for repurposing old buildings is on grand display at this mammoth development along the Atlanta BeltLine. Ponce City Market is somewhere you come for a good time, whether it's shopping at a small boutique, gallery, or larger store, or for a meal or drink in the central food hall. A mix of locally-owned shops, like leather goods store Glad & Young and Souk Bohemian, and well-known brands like Williams-Sonoma and Posman Books make up the composition of the market’s shopping options with something for any budget or desire. You can also pay a fee to ride a freight elevator to the rooftop for carnival games and killer city views. Visitors love Ponce City Market as much as locals do. Taken just at face value, it's an enjoyable way to spend part of the day or evening or as a stop while you stroll the BeltLine. Scratch beneath the surface of functional space, cool shopping, and terrific restaurants, though, and it's a great story of a historic building experiencing a rebirth." - Lia Picard, Jennifer Bradley Franklin
