Dining Options Around Atlanta's Summerhill Neighborhood

Halfway Crooks

Address: 60 Georgia Ave. SE, Atlanta, GA 30312

When you're in the mood for a craft Belgian-inspired lager and some elevated shareables like Belgian fries, hickory-smoked sausage, or lemon-pepper wet wings, head to Halfway Crooks. Looking for some heartier fare? The smashburger, also available in a veggie version, or a Cuban sandwich, fits the bill. Housed in a historic building, Halfway Crooks' interesting decor features plenty of '80s retro tech, including game consoles, classic keyboards, circuit boards, and floppy disks, all sure to make you feel nostalgic.

Little Bear

Address: 71-A Georgia Ave. SE, Suite A, Atlanta, GA 30312

Honored with the prestigious Michelin Bib Gourmand distinction, Little Bear serves a frequently changing menu featuring dishes made with ingredients from local farmers. Dishes are inspired by spots around the globe, and popular choices include the chicken liver custard with corn cakes or the cumin lamb. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, the menu also includes:

• Dealer's Choice: four-course prix fixe menu
• X.L. Meat du Jour: featuring a "big hunk-o-flesh" with whatever the chef wants to add

Southern National

Address: 72 Georgia Ave., Suite 100, Atlanta, GA 30312

Southern flavors influence the menu at Southern National, as you'd expect, but it also draws on many global influences. The restaurant was named a James Beard Awards semifinalist and serves original, creative dishes that reflect an updated South. Examples include a salad that combines grilled okra and shishito peppers and bread service with sheet-pan biscuits with pepper jelly and jalapeno johnnycakes with cane sugar syrup butter. Treat yourself to a beverage from the bar, such as a Coconut Negroni or a boozy pecan Old Fashioned float, to satisfy your sweet tooth. And although dinner is an excellent time to visit the restaurant, it also serves a popular Saturday and Sunday brunch that's definitely worth trying.

Talat Market

Address: 112 Ormond St. SE, Atlanta, GA 30315

Talat Market marries Thai culinary tradition with fresh local ingredients to create inventive beverages and boldly flavored dishes. A Michelin-recommended and James Beard Awards finalist, the restaurant's menu is meant to be shared and enjoyed family-style, and it's relatively small, so the chefs can focus on just a few dishes at a time that change seasonally. Customer favorites include the Northern Thai Chicken Laap (minced chicken salad) enhanced with fish sauce, lime, and shrimp paste, as well as various iterations of oysters on the half-shell.

The Little Tart Bakeshop

Address: 68 Georgia Ave. SE, Atlanta, GA 30312

Known for its flaky croissants, seasonal pastries, and expertly crafted coffee drinks, The Little Tart Bakeshop is a favorite neighborhood stop in Summerhill. The bright café serves sweet and savory baked goods, making it a perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon treat. Grab a seat on the patio and enjoy the lively atmosphere along Georgia Avenue.
