Chastain Park

The city’s northernmost tip that still gets to claim ITP status. Built up mostly in the 1940s, the area is largely residential. Chastain has plenty of greenspace thanks to the city’s largest park, full of wooded jogging trails, tennis courts, a horse park, and a beautiful outdoor music venue. But as development ever expands along Roswell Road, new culinary and cultural spots are starting to pop up in this otherwise sleepy area.

Let’s be real: if you’re not a local, and you’re not here for a day at the park, the reason you’ve come to Chastain in the first place is probably Buttermilk Kitchen. Chef Suzanne Vizethann, a native ATLien and Chopped winning contestant, has cooked up a renowned brunch that sources ingredients from local farms (there’s even a White Oak sticker proudly emblazoning the front window). The quaint building has a line out the door on weekends. Inside, the rooms are filled with eclectic signs, lights and wall paintings, and the bowtie-clad staff bring portions that will require an afternoon nap. It’s one of Atlanta’s best brunches (recommendation: order anything/everything with pimento cheese in it), and a definite must for visiting the neighborhood.
