thumbnail for Downtown DecaturIf you are looking for a family friendly community or just a night out on the town, try the Decatur Square in the heart of Downtown Decatur. A few personal favorites include the Brick Store Pub (if you love a good beer and English fare), Iberian Pig (one of the best restaurants in Atlanta, hands down) or if you just want an inexpensive dinner, Raging Burrito.
