The post Little Five Points, Atlanta: Quirky, Weird, Original appeared first on Traveler Dreams.
]]>Little Five Points is the convergence point of Atlanta’s streetcars lines since the 1890s, and this was the inception of this shopping district. While the 1960s and 1970s saw the area deteriorating, it got a second wind in the 1980s and restored its allure with live music venues that saw acts like Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, and Marilyn Manson.
The folks at Little Five Points kept their neighborhood from becoming mainstream. They managed to keep the chain stores out and the local businesses running, which preserves the area’s quirky character.
The local businesses are more than atmospheric, it’s actually a great place to go for a shopping day if you like to be a little bit off the mainstream. Clothing and music shops, great places to eat and see art of all genres, including a local theatre and a live music venue, this is a great neighborhood to spend a day in.

]]>Founded in 1930, this “sandwich shack” is claimed to be the best cheesesteak sandwich in the area, but it is agreed that John’s pork roast sandwich is even better than the cheesesteak. They are confident enough in their food to work relatively limited hours, with a closing time of 7pm.
This institution was opened by two brothers and their father in 1992 in South Philadelphia. The original Tony Luke’s was famous for their hoagie sandwiches, but popular demand got them to develop one of the best cheesesteak sandwiches in town. Tony Luke’s is now a chain of stands and franchises, including locations in New York City and even a few locations in Bahrain!
Opened in 1947, Campo’s was originally a butcher shop. Their meatballs are still made on-site, so you can get them fresh out of the oven, as a side for your cheesesteak. They also have gluten-free and vegan alternatives.
