Roswell Living

 Roswell, Georgia holds a special place in my heart. It is where we bought our first house, hosted showers and parties for our friends,and where we have cerebrated big moments like promotions. So I thought I would share a few of our favorite spots! There are too many to count, because the city of Roswell has done such a good job on making this town feel small in a large suburb of Atlanta!

Outdoor: 

Hiking the Roswell Mill. This is an easy hike and pet friendly. A ton of people love to come and hang out by the banks of the small waterfall when the weather is just right. Roswell began as a mill town and you can still see the remnants on the hike!  The covered bridge is perfect for overlooking the mill and a photo op if hiking isn't really your thing! 

Food: 

There is no shortage of food options in Roswell. You can find everything french inspired food at Roux to down home BBQ!  Roswell Provisions provides that local cafe feeling with delicious sweet treats. The inside decor transports you into a little french cafe. Definitely stop in if you are exploring and want a quick pick me up!

While MacMagee's  isn't exclusive to downtown Roswell, it definitely gives you a local feel. This is one of our favorite places to grab a drink before dinner or take friends to listen to the local bands on Friday nights. The food is always good!

There are several BBQ spots in Roswell, but one of our favorites is Spiced Right Rib House. This family owned establishment always has great service and the freshest food. We love to take our family here because there is plenty of seating and great portions!

Local Breweries:

Gate City Brewing was one of Roswell's first breweries and has expanded due to the quality of service and the fun environment they bring to the downtown area. This is a family, dog and people friendly brewery. They also bring in local bands on Friday and Saturday nights. 

If beer isn't always your thing but your friends are really into the craft beer scene. they also have water and sodas for sale. The other great thing about downtown Roswell is that there is an open container policy. As long as you have it in a plastic cup you can walk around with your beverage. 

Newer to the local Roswell craft beer scene is From The Earth Brewing Co. is similar to a Wicked Weed vibe for those of you who have been to Ashville. Great food and an upscale atmosphere. Perfect for a relaxed date night!
