The eatery opens at 5 p.m. each day and typically closes at 10 p.m. but stays open an hour longer on Saturdays and closes an hour earlier on Sundays.

Here’s what one visitor says about 9 Mile Station. “On top of Ponce city market is this restaurant that offers a great selection of food options and great views. First of the food was really good. Enjoyed the mussels and our dinner options (salmon and the meat trio). Obviously they have a mixologist making drinks because they were very good. Now let’s talk about the views from the roof, … very scenic. Definitely try this restaurant for dinner but if not for dinner go for drinks and just sit and look and realize how pretty the city is.”

They have picnic tables outside, tables downstairs, an upstairs area that feels like a lounge with couches, and an outdoor area upstairs too. I went with a big group on Saturday, 3/5/22. I got the Lord Grey and the Saporous. Both were delicious! Light and easy to drink. We got there at 1:00 pm, which wasn’t too crowded yet and we were able to snag a table. It got suuuuper packed later on. Beware that parking in the deck is pretty expensive – $15 for 3+ hours.”

Popeyes is celebrating its 50th anniversary by giving its customers a great deal nationwide, including in Atlanta, Georgia.
The popular fried chicken restaurant began in the New Orleans suburb of Arabi, Louisiana on June 12, 1972. That’s when owner Alvin C. Copeland Sr., opened his “Chicken on the Run” eatery.
After months of unimpressive sales, Copeland renamed the restaurant “Popeyes” after Popeye Doyle of The French Connection and the eatery took off.
For a whole month, Popeyes will offer two pieces of chicken (bone-in) for just 59 cents, the same price the restaurant sold it for in 1972.
The week-long promotion starts June 12, Popeyes’ 50th anniversary, and runs until June 19.
The 59-cent menu includes a two-piece order of chicken. To qualify for the 59 cents deal, you have to order a $5 order minimum and it has to be a mobile order or done through the Popeyes app.
These Popeyes locations in Atlanta are all participating in the 59 cents deal. Click on the link to open a Google Map to the restaurant.
