One of your area's most popular places for a great meal is Staplehouse, a restaurant that promises a seasonally driven menu combining the freshest ingredients available. The menu changes with the season, but previous dinner menu items have included a hearty dish of beef sausage with farro and leek, a blue crab plate with parsnips and fermented shrimp served with cabbage. The restaurant is open for dinner Wednesday through Saturday and for just lunch on Sunday.

Staplehouse is only two miles away from Station R, and we should note that a seat at this local restaurant is just about one of the hardest seats to snag when it comes to the Atlanta dining scene. Reservations open up for the following month on the second Friday of the current month and are available on a first come, first serve basis, so be sure to make your reservation soon! Those who don’t snag a reservation for their desired date can try to get a seat at the bar where a number of walk-in spots are available.
