Dining, Entertainment & Shopping
You'll find no end to the wonderful things to do, places to shop, and international cuisine to try in Chamblee. Enjoy a taste of the town's history at the 57th Fighter Group. This dining experience honors WWII veterans with combat vehicles outdoors and some incredible memorial walls inside. Enjoy top-end American pub fare, including beer cheese soup, enormous fried shrimp, loaded burgers, and southern breakfast.
Fudo is a local Japanese restaurant that is always packed. This airy industrial-style dining room favors bar-height chairs and natural wooden tables. From the sushi bar at the front to delicious platters and stir-fry to share at a family table, locals can't stop raving about the cuisine.
Dive into foodie heaven and support your local farmers at Southbound, a southern-style farm-to-table restaurant with a vintage wooden bar and farm-fresh southern food. Every meal looks mouthwatering and tastes even better than it looks, including burgers, steak, home fries, and loaded breakfast scrambles.
You'll find folks lined up around the corner on a hot summer day at The Frosty Caboose. In a converted train car painted bright red, this delightful local ice cream shop serves enormous cones and sundaes with all the toppings.
Of course, the trendiest eatery in town is the Food Terminal. Decorated in bright neon and eye-catching industrial decor, you will soon discover Malaysian cuisine and Asian street food in a mix of flavors most locals have tasted nowhere else.
Looking to discover something new, simply drive the Buford Highway Corridor. There are dozens of restaurants on this road alone and plenty of opportunities to find your new favorite.
Things to Do
Looking for places to enjoy yourself, start your search along the Buford Highway. The Plaza Fiesta is a Mexican-themed indoor shopping mall with more personality than your average Galleria. From the paper flags above to the many colorful children's rides and toys within, the whole family will find something to love and more than a few things to buy at the plaza.
Chamblee is a tapestry of wonderful parks for outdoor recreation, including sports fields, hiking trails, local playgrounds, and even a miniature local forest preserve. There are nine great parks and over a dozen little parks throughout the area.
You may also enjoy being close to the Peachtree DeKalb Airport. This small local airport is actually a local attraction. Parents take their children to the nearby playground and watch the annual local air show.
Schools
Chamblee is a city that cares about high-quality education, and there are several great schools in the area that reflect this priority. You can find public and private schools for your children and near-Atlanta learning opportunities and programs.
