Where to eat in Marietta: lists by category

Last checked Oct. 6, 2026. Refreshed every three months.

Marietta’s restaurants concentrate on and around the Square, where sidewalk tables line North and South Park Square and the Marietta Square Market food hall sits on North Marietta Parkway. Beyond downtown, Cobb Parkway, Whitlock Avenue, Roswell Road and Canton Road carry most of the rest. The lists below cover places inside the city limits. Each one is alphabetical, with addresses, hours as each place publishes them and phone numbers.

How we made these lists. Every list starts from OpenStreetMap records inside Marietta’s city limits, the same data behind our business directory, checked against each place’s own website. Places with no website, or whose sites would not load for us, are confirmed through the Georgia Department of Public Health inspection database. The lists are not rankings or recommendations, and nobody paid to be on them. Run a restaurant? Write to us to correct your entry.
