As fall colors begin to paint the city, Atlanta’s vibrant Upper Westside is set to transform Howell Mill Road into a pedestrian paradise for the third annual Westside Stride block party.
Though anticipation has been building for the event’s original Oct. 4 slot, organizers announced a slight shift to Sunday, Oct. 5, 2025, ensuring families and friends can kick off the weekend with a full afternoon of community fun from noon to 6 p.m.
Inspired by the successful Atlanta Streets Alive series, Westside Stride closes a bustling stretch of Howell Mill Road to cars, inviting residents to reclaim the pavement on foot, bike, scooter, or stroller.

I don’t know how much you know about Atlanta’s nightlife, but Georgia biggest city is the country’s day party capital: Vibe-heavy food and music affairs that go on all day until the night every weekend.
Day parties became popular on college campuses when university officials instituted curfews on university property. The parties soon began to pop up in nightclubs in college towns.
These days it’s a small thing to catch a day party in a large metropolitan city like Atlanta.
What Can You Expect At A Day Party?
A typical day party is a experiential dining .event that caters to all the senses. In addition to premium food and drinks, many day parties have hookah available for select tables.
What separates this scene from a regular restaurant episode? The music! Day parties are just that — parties — which means you can expect a wide range of music, including Reggae. Soca. Afrobeatz. Hip Hop and RnB tunes from the DJ.
Let’s look at some of the most popular day parties that frequently occur in Atlanta:
Boogalou Restaurant & Lounge
239 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30308 | (404) 464-7705

What one reviewer says about Boogalou Lounge: “My son suggested this place for Mother’s Day brunch and I was so impressed. The food was delicious, the service was fantastic and the atmosphere was on-point. I had the seafood omelette with grits and a lobster tail on the side and the glass of strawberry mimosas just topped it off. My son had the seafood omelette & grits as well along with chicken wings and French toast. He boasted about the chicken wings were fried perfectly and French toast was delicious. The food portions were so much that I needed a to-go box. For my first time, I really enjoyed myself.”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Vision Lounge
2520 Piedmont Road Northeast Atlanta, GA 30324

Here’s what one partyer says about Vision Lounge. “The pictures online look much better. Chill laid back spot. The food was cool. The lamb chops were good but the mash potatoes were cold. The fries tasted like they were cooked in old oil. My burger was off but I can’t put my finger on it. Everyone liked their food besides for the plastic forks we were given . Our waitress was amazing.”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Cafe Circa Atlanta’s #1 Saturday Day Party
464 Edgewood Ave SE, Atlanta, GA 30312 | : (404) 477-0008

Here’s what a reviewer says about Cafe Circa: “We had a lot of fun, and the food was amazing and worth the return, alone. We had salmon n grits & whole wings with¹ french toast. So full of flavor! The advertising about the Brunch Mimosa R&B Day Party needs to be made clear as there was some confusion about this. It would have been nice to hear more R&B during the event. The DJ played a lot of hip-hop, catering to his own liking, but once he started playing R&B, the customers lit up, danced, and really appeared to be having a great time. Once the rooftop opened, we went up and planned to hang up there a while longer, but they turned off all heaters, which made it cold and uncomfortable, so we left. We will definitely return again now knowing what to expect.”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Club EMBR
1136 Crescent Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30309

What the parties at EMBR are like: “We definitely had a time here! Great way to kick off Nurses Week or whatever occasion you guys want to celebrate! Our server was really good to us! I can’t remember her name but I remember her saying she is from St. Martin! So if you see this review, give her a raise Embr! The prices were reasonable for the section and the chicken tacos were fire. Will definitely be returning!”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Pure Lounge & Hookah Bar
1594 Woodcliff Dr NE A, Atlanta, GA 30329 | (404) 600-6390

Photo credit: Pure Lounge in Atlanta Here’s what one reviewer says about Pure Lounge: “I’ve been here twice and both times I’ve enjoyed myself. It’s a cool vibe, a little out there but you’ll be able to listen to some good music and chill. If you’re there past 12am just know things are about to get routy because of the club next door.”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Suite Food Lounge
375 Luckie St NW, Atlanta, GA 30313 | (404) 577-2500

Photo credit: Food Suite Lounge Here’s what one reviewer says about Suite Food Lounge: “It was a wait for the food however the waiter was good with updating us. Once the food came out I had ordered the Bourbon Salmon and Shrimp I was worth it!!! So delicious! With mash potato’s and asparagus it was warm would have been nice to be hot that’s the way I like my food. Hubby had the wings and they were good too. Nice ambiance like the R&B music they played we had an early reservation at 6:30 so it wasn’t so busy cause this place gets really busy as it gets later.”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Rose and Rye
3377 Peachtree Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30326

Here’s what one patron says about Rose and Rye: “Nice rooftop. I came here when it was Whiskey Blue. Different name but same vibes. The music is good and the food is good enough. I’ve tried the fries and the wings. Nice for an after,dinner cocktail but I wouldn’t come here for dinner unless I was staying in the hotel.”
Hookah: Yes
Parking: $40
Why Atlanta Is The Day Party Capital
Day parties are huge in urban metropolitan cities like Houston, Baltimore and New Orleans, but there’s nothing like the ones in Atlanta, Georgia.
Atlanta’s strong collegiate presence, especially the Atlanta University Center (AU) which serves students at Spelman College, Morris Brown College and Morehouse College, makes the city a hotbed of activity when it comes to nightlife events.
It was just a matter of time before day parties became the norm in the warmer months of the city.
Final Word
Thinking about going to a day party soon? You’d better save up your cash. Day parties can be expensive. Not only will there typically be a price of admission (unless you RSVP). there will be a parking fee.
One of the biggest expenses will be the drinks and food you buy. Most day party menus have entrees that are $20 and up and include shrimp and lobster.
