Cafe sunflower is great! however it is one of the more expensive restaurants you could go to for vegan food in atlanta.

It is certainly pricey. We don't frequent either place as often as we'd like to. :-/

While we're talking up veggie restaurants in ATL, has anyone tried the World Peace Cafe just up the street from the Sandy Spring Cafe Sunflower? My husband and I dropped in just before Christmas to see what it was like and were pleasantly surprised. Yum.

I'm planing a trip to Atlanta for my birthday (in June) any suggestions on where I should go for shopping, Restraunts, Etc?

But where are some whole foodstores in the atlanta area? preferably austell, marietta area? i know theres one in smyrna but I cant remember that name of it....my brother took me there once....

[MichelleC]

I'm in Marietta, about 15 miles outside of Atlanta.


me too! well, between there somewhere. in austell

[MichelleC]

Well, there's Sam's, but then there's Harmony! Too bad it's in Chambodia.

I live in Cobb County, about 26 miles from my job downtown. It's a good thing I get to work from home once a week, or I'd eventually be on the news for road rage. Wait, that could still happen.


me too!

[MichelleC]

what is that? and why to veggers talk about it?

[MichelleC]

In my experience the best natural food store in Atlanta is Sevananda (http://www.sevananda.coop/retailer/store_templates/shell_id_1.asp?storeID=C5G13S77A6GB8P0JT1P2Q4XBHR8 BFXX2). It is a food COOP in little five points. The entire store is vegetarian, all organic produce, and all the vegetarian staples you would expect.

It might be a bit far from marietta though unless you work in Atlanta proper. You need to move into the city :).

Take a look at this list: http://www.happycow.net/north_america/usa/georgia/atlanta/index.html

Of the places there the ones I've tried and like are:

Cafe Sunflower: More of a gourmet veggie found than anything else you'll find in Atlanta. A bit pricey though. Good for a treat.

Dynamic Dish: Very fresh and the ingredients are organic. Weird hours though.

Green Sprout: Great if you're in the mood for Chinese food. Plenty of vegetarian mock meats.

The others I either wasn't very impressed with or haven't tried yet. Hope this helps.

Now that each state has its own forum I'll be closing the state threads. Please continue any discussion by starting a new thread in this forum. Thanks!
