Home to the Atlanta Braves since 2017, the Battery Atlanta has an open, outdoor campus designed for both relaxation and recreation – no matter your vibe. While we recommend catching a Braves game, there are year-round events for all ages, so trust us, you do not have to be a sports fan to enjoy a day at the Battery. Whether you are heading to the Battery for one of their Movie Series nights, taking a free weekly yoga class on the lawn, shopping at the seasonal Farmers Market, enjoying live entertainment or just going for dinner and drinks, one day may not be enough to explore everything the Battery has to offer. Lucky for you, we’ve created this guide to maximize your day trip to the Battery – see you there!
Pro-tip number one for visiting the Battery is to come hungry – there are a variety of food options for all the fellow foodies! With both old favorites and new one-of-a-kind concepts, the Battery has a table for all taste buds. With over 20 eateries, many including social lounges and gaming parlors, your Day In The Life At The Battery could be exclusively food-focused – and we wouldn’t blame you! In fact, we’d be asking to join. Grab an authentic slice at Antico’s, play a game and drink at Punch Bowl Social, catch a trivia night at Battle & Brew, feast at Ph’East and finish the day with a treat at Jeni’s Ice Creams. Pro-tip number two: you can get alcohol to-go as long as you stay within the Battery, so you can walk around with your drink and not have to stop exploring.
