Not only does the Little Five Points neighborhood host the city's Halloween parade, but it also invites live musical acts to concert halls including The Star Community Bar and Variety Playhouse. But grab dinner and drinks before the show at places like The Vortex, Tijuana Garage, Front Page News, Porter Beer Bar (order the fries) and more. Watch a soccer match at Brewhouse Cafe, a popular destination for Atlanta United FC fans. And you have to order a drink in the basement of an old Victorian mansion that is the Wrecking Bar Brewpub.
