I am in need of recommendations for a place/restaurant to meet my college daughter for a few hours somewhat near the airport.

I will be flying out of ATL in the evening in a few weeks, and my daughter will come from AL to meet me in the afternoon. I need a safe place or restaurant to meet her at to spend a few hours. She will be driving alone so it needs to be safe, and I need to be somewhat near the airport to make my plane.

Recommendations appreciated. Thank you.

Peachtree City! about 30 minutes south of the airport with tons of awesome restaurants! gorgeous community, safe, tons of families, and wonderful vibe.

You could also check out Trilith in Fayetteville, about 30 minutes as well south of the airport -a really cool hub of entertainment, shopping, and food: https://www.trilith.com/shop-and-dine

I’d recommend Hapeville. Safe city with easy parking and there are plenty of casual restaurants and a few coffee shops, plus a couple little plazas if the weather is nice.

Been meeting friends for years at Spondivits on Virginia Avenue. I guess they are still there.

Its still there. There's also a pub, Manchester Arms(?) just up Virginia Avenue from Spondivits, closer to Woodward Academy on the other side of I-85.

I'll second Manchester Arms, and add Brake Pad (just around the corner, a former art deco style gas station transformed into a good bar and grill) to the list.

I’ve been to Brake Pad in Historic Downtown College Park several times. A nice place.

Based on the posts above, it seems the best options would be:

Brake Pad
Manchester Arms
Eateries/Restaurants in Hapeville

Chairs Upstairs is another one in East Point to consider. Good (bar) food, pool / arcade games, etc. Also Volare in Hapeville or The Corner Grill in College Park if you're just looking for a nice meal.

Super convenient to the airport too since you can drive straight down Lee St. and get to the airport without having to get on the highway, or of course Marta will drop you off inside the airport in one or two stops from East Point or College Park Station.
