3. Cereal and Cream - Grant Park

My kids are obsessed with cereal and ice cream, so Cereal and Cream is the perfect themed restaurant. The dessert shop started as a food truck and eventually opened a brick-and-mortar location in Grant Park. Customize your treat by choosing one base (i.e. vanilla ice cream) then any three mix-ins (cereals, candy, toppings); or order Cereal and Cream mix-in combos named after Atlanta neighborhoods (my favorite is Midtown, with Apple Jacks and more). Kids can also create cereal-infused waffle sundaes and milkshakes.

This beloved Candler Park eatery feels like you've entered the world of Wonderland, with its quirky decor of hanging umbrellas, lampshades, bird cages, and paper cranes, as well as bookshelves bursting with books, comfy chairs, and of course, endless choices of tea.

6. Medieval Times - Lawrenceville

We can't have an article about eatertainment in Atlanta and not include one of the OGs --Medieval Times! Go back about 600 years to the times of knights and fair maidens at the ultimate dinner show.

And as families feast, they get to witness (and be a part of) a knightly competition, involving jousting and combat atop live horses.
