Underground Atlanta

Im from NY and i can to Atlanta for a business trip and thought it was a good idea to visit underground Atlanta the website makes this place seen like you HAVE to stop there but NO im a 24 your old female my co-worker and i decided on are

This place is horrible. Mostly all the stores are useless, you've got people running around acting like hoodlums, and to top it off you have homeless people begging for money every 10 feet.

There are always something new going on at the underground in Atlanta such as the new Dupsies African clothing store with the unique clothing for all, the styles are not only unique but cut across all ages. My feelings and view of

Pros: Unique stores such as Dupsies African clothing is there!

Cons: You have to pay for parking

We drove around the Underground part of Atlanta fully expecting to get out and do some shopping because several internet sites recommended this as a great historic shopping area. This was at 5 - 6 pm, not yet dark out. There was NO WAY

Pros: shocking

Cons: shocking

As a native of Atlanta and a local I have to say that Underground is a good place to visit. The crime that some have associated with Underground and the area are not so. I have lived in Downtown Atlanta and work across the street from

Pros: fun atmosphere, lots of interesting shops.

Cons: World of Coke have moved

Atlanta has been over hyped and 'PR sanitized'-the reality is far different!(higher per capita violent crime statistics than LA,NY and Chicago)-Dont expect a pleasant, fun experience! If you are not within eye ball range of a uniformed

Really good shopping , but the area isn't the safest. There are a few good restaurants and a few night clubs. Its a cool hang, but be sure to have a ton of friends with you.

Family visited Undergropund Atlanta several years ago (maybe late 90's) Back 8/08--dirty, not safe, gangsta adults and kids bunched up in groups all over blocking sidewalks. I don't think we have ever been so disappointed in a place in

Pros: nothing !!!

Cons: everything--ditry-not safe--a disgrace to a great city

My husband & I went to the underground to party on Friday & Saturday night. We both LOVED it we are going back next month. We are from Annapolis Md. We never experianced so much fun with so many mature fun loving people.We have no place

Pros: Fun, Cheap nice verity of music & clubs

Cons: long lines for clubs & some are over crowded when you do get in

to me underground atlanta is unlike i anything ive ever experience contrary to popular belief i loved it. it was a diffferent atmosphere than anyone shopping place ive been to. the stores are different (in a good way), an item you buy in

Pros: walking distance from the marta

I went, I saw, and I'm thankful I lived to get home! Underground Atlanta is a HORRIBLE place. I went and took my 16 yr old daughter. Major mistake! The lewd comments made toward my daughter by the trash hanging around there and the

Cons: All have been stated

After hearing great things about the Underground, I decided to pay a Friday night visit. I was NOT impressed. First of all, it's in a sketchy area. Second, there is nothing to do after the stores close. The "clubs" if you want to call

Cons: Smelly, dirty, and unsafe.

I think it is still the same as back in the day. Fast food in variety, shoping places, single professionals. By me traveling around the country, I've learned to enjoy myself where ever I am. Regardless of the kids, lack of security,

This is a nice spot to walk around with someone, possibly a date, and just see things and talk about world affairs, politics, the sidewalk vendors hocking wares or the GREAT chili cheese fries at the Johnny Rockets near the music store.

Pros: Laid-back atmosphere, nightlife

Cons: Lots of high school-age children running about

Over twenty years ago, when Underground Atlanta, first opened, this place was the bomb! Great Restaurants/Bars/Clubs and unique shopping. Today this is not even a skeleton of the original. Tacky vendor booths, lousy food-court, and out

Pros: None!

Cons: Poor Quality Retail and Food, Unsafe Area!

Underground Atlanta, back in the days, was the place to visit. It is now full of shopping stores and restaurants which would be an outstanding place to go if they would just control the kids/childrens. Children under the age of 16

Pros: Bands, Bars, Restaurants

Cons: Kids w/o parents, Need bands outside, Affordable shops

THE UNDERGROUND HAS REALLY GONE DOWN. ITS JUST A PLACE FOR PARENTS TO DROP OF THEIR KIDS TO RUN WILD, BUT I FOR 1 WOULD NOT. IF WANT TO SEE A BUNCH OF PUNK ROCKERS, DOOMS DAY, OR MAYBE A COUPLE OF 'I DONT KNOW WHAT I AMS' TEENS, THEN THIS

Cons: KID CROWDED

Well worth the trip -- but once is probably enough. Lots of interesting shops, but few selling much more than junk. A few good restaurants. It's just an interesting place to walk around.

this a place of class and comfort not much fun and play but breath taking views and miles of interesting people and booths in all i would not take kids to it but mature adults with patience and time can enjoy the coca cola musuem for the

Pros: inexpensive, good parking, diversity

Cons: shows to crowded

All the shops were the same as you would find in any mall in America. The only thing my group found remotely interesting were the historical markers telling what had been in that spot. I enjoyed the architecture but somehow the overhead

Pros: hist. architecture

Cons: shops & vendors

Who did these top 10 in Atlanta? Lenox Square is more exciting than Underground, which is constantly under GUARD to prevent crime!
Get a life!

Cons: overfpriced, average mall attracti, no parking

Fun, activities, restaurants, shops & atmosphere... you will find the best here. Only minor draw back... some of the cart vendors are less than the best.

Pros: Shops, Restaurant selection

Cons: Cart Vendors

This is just a large tourist mall -- great if you're looking to buy some Atlanta magnets. It is conviniently located right in the downtown so I think it's worth a short trip to see the interesting decour.

the chocolate shop and the souvenirs if you are visiting as a tourist. Try anything with pralines and the Tuttles are mouthwatering. If you live/work in ATL & need a sinful stress reliever (or something to sneak in to Turner Field for a

Underground Atlanta is really nothing more than a glorified shopping mall. Unless you're being forced to walk through it to get to the Braves shuttle, this is not a place I think of frequenting or taking visitors when they come to Atlanta.

Pros: near MARTA
