The Best Place to Stay for a Braves Game

The team at Discover Dunwoody made the trip to show other fans how accessible the stadium is from Dunwoody. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the Braves or simply enjoying getting to know the game, here’s our team recap with everything there is to do at a Braves game to ensure you have an unforgettable experience.

Located in the heart of Dunwoody, Perimeter Mall stands as a bustling hub within the Perimeter Area, offering a variety of shopping experiences tailored for Braves fans. For those seeking authentic sportswear, Champs Sports is a go-to destination, stocked with everything from hoodies to jerseys. Nearby, Lids specializes in stylish baseball hats, perfect for shielding oneself from the sun. Additionally, Academy Sports, Target, and Walmart in Dunwoody cater to all budgets with their wide range of offerings.

Perimeter Mall isn't just about shopping; it's conveniently located near the stadium, making it an ideal spot for pre-game preparations. After a day of shopping, Dunwoody's vibrant dining scene awaits, with options like Buffalo Wild Wings, Gilly’s Sports Bar, and family-friendly Hobnob, known for its board games. Marlow’s Tavern and Taco Mac further enrich the local dining experience, and are beloved staples within the community. Along with these amenities, there are excellent transportation options like MARTA and Uber to ensure seamless access to the stadium, enhancing the overall Braves experience.

Parking can be a dreaded task when going to any sporting event. This can be even more difficult if you go to a weekday game where only half of the parking spots are available due to neighboring business hours. Follow our lead: The Discover Dunwoody team took an Uber to the game. In anticipation of the game day traffic, Ubers are plentiful and can pick you up within minutes. This 20-minute car ride goes by like a flash when you’re amping up for game day with your friends. Get dropped off right outside The Battery, an outdoor shopping and dining center, and enter through any gate.

Truist Park, the home of the Atlanta Braves, is a modern marvel. The stadium boasts impressive architecture, comfortable seating, and a myriad of top end amenities to enhance the fan experience. Take some time to explore the concourse before finding your seats. The variety of food at this stadium could fill an entire blog of its own but we’ll give you the quick rundown.

Baseball is synonymous with hot dogs and beer so make sure you grab these classic snacks available on every level. If you want something to keep the kids busy and have a souvenir to take home, order the dip ‘n’ dots served in a Braves baseball cap. The H&F classic burger is pricy but also a gourmet local favorite. For those looking for another Atlanta favorite, try anything from Fox Bros Bar-B-Q or Superica, you won’t regret it. We’re only one of two Garden & Gun Club restaurants in the country specializing in the popular magazine’s take on Southern cuisine.

If you’re attending with kids make sure to stop at the Sandlot Kid Zone for some incredible hands-on activities. Enjoy experiences such as rock climbing, ziplining, or carnival games. This is a perfect spot to take restless kiddos who struggle with sitting down for a few hours. Look for a game on Sunday when kids get free access to these activities.
