Virginia Highlands

Leafy side streets and a scattering of clothing stores, bars, and restaurants give this historic neighborhood an appeal that's hard to resist. Named for the main streets in this area, Virginia Avenue and Highland Avenue, the neighborhood has a wide selection of shops that will speak to a range of people. Men and women can snag trendy garb from atelier Bill Hallman Original; camping gear from Half Moon Outfitters; handcrafted, gourmet chocolates from Cacao; or American-made gifts and home goods from the Indie-Pendent. Fashion-minded ladies can score Michael Kors, Free People and Rebecca Minkoff styles at Winter Wren, while trendy workout fiends will want to stock their closets with cute gear from Atlanta Activewear.
