50 BEST SHOPS IN ATLANTA

50 Best Shops in Atlanta

Shopping in Atlanta has never been better, with new developments, luxury boutiques, and specialty stores popping up faster than you can say “charge it.”

Our team scoured the metro area for the best places to buy clothes, jewelry, and cosmetics for men, women, and kids. “Shops,” we decided, are intimate spaces that feel like a one-of-a-kind experience, whether they’re locally or internationally owned.

These are the spots with the best merch, cool buys you won’t find anywhere else, hangout-worthy interiors, and top-notch customer service that sometimes comes with a cold beverage. We didn’t say it was easy.

A pop-up before pop-ups were cool, Club Zebra featured live readings, music performances, poetry, dance, and everything in between. The audience watched from small cabaret tables and sipped beer and wine purchased via donations since the show had no alcohol license; it was a speakeasy, after all.
