Reviews of The Georgia Freight Depot

B Mccoy

Very nice location with parking on site. We were invited to a Women Veteran Legislative event. The space was accessible with wheelchair access as well.

Lolita Anderson

Absolutely phenomenal venue a very spacious and plenty of breakout rooms maintain very clean and excellent teams

Alycaria

Neat building, some parking, by the old Coke building. Easy to drop people off. Next to a parking deck (Underground). Temp gets colder/warmer in the back of the building from the door.

Suzanna Martinez

I went here for Georgia Hispanic Chamber event that hosted the Governor. It was a great venue. It was little dark. It is a great place to host the event just have extra lighting for those volunteers checking in guests.

Nathanael Flock

What an awesome venue! The size, the location, the amenities... It was a great experience and the parking lot next to it was extremely convenient for those who were attending the event we threw. In Atlanta it's hard to find a venue with convenient parking, but this venue is literally surrounded by parking opportunities! It definitely has a historic feel, but doesn't have a drafty atmosphere or stale smell. It could fit a thousand easily, but even around 500 didn't feel like it was too big. Our team at City Gate Atlanta was very thankful for the experience!

Christine Allen

My bestie just had her wedding here and it was excellent. As a member of the bridal party I knew more than the average guest but was not in on all the details so my info is limited. The planner was great and staff made sure we had everything we needed all day. We were there for over 13 hours the day of the wedding. Parking is a paid lot so taking an Uber might be ideal depending on your reason for visiting.

Mark Anthony Johnson

Very informative and enjoyable and enlightening and engaging. My activist ideas 💡 were awakened. …

Shawana L

They had a family, fun entertainment, and the juneteenth celebration. It was awesome.

Mr. Infinity

Pretty solid place for events. Attended a catering food show and the set up was beautiful.

Barbara Lee

I went to Sysco food show and saw a lots of new innovative catering items as well as tasted new product's. Should have taken more photo's. They had a new Brisket by Austin Blues it was Delicious !!!

Ashish Lirani

I was there to attend the ac3 music festival and it was so much fun. Great croud and great logistics.

Sam Keske

Great spot for a wedding, and apparently adjustable to fit wedding size. Rustic, but refined. Only complaint: only paid parking for guests.

BKA Beautifull

Awesome venue space for almost anything. Parking is easy and accessible too. I was here for the Pancakes and Booze event

Dexter Christian

Set up as a vendor. Loading area was accessible from loading dock to front doors. Comfortable indoor climate. An all around nice venue for events.

Michelle Anderson

Historic Building with interesting architectural features. Accommodates a very large crowd.

Sarah Fitzpatrick

We were here for a wedding reception and it is a great location with wonderful service and food!

Oscar Melara

Great venue and the spacing between the tables was great!!! The food was amazing and so were the drinks

Deborah Gates

It’s a great place to have wedding reception more

Payricia Keith

Great deals are waiting on you for the pickings. Come on out and grab yourself a ton...

Amelia Jackson

Great event space. Attended Pancake and Booze Art Show.

Brianne Rogers

This was a venue for a show that I went to, and it was pretty cool. There is an entry way, and then a main room, and a side room. The whole place was air conditioned, and it was pretty huge. There were a ton of people there that night, and enough room for everyone. There was an outdoor area where everyone could smoke. It was neat being in this old, brick building. Super conveniently located, and there is parking very near by.

Ay Jay

Pretty cool venue. I've attended The Village Market there twice and its been an awesome experience. The parking deck is next door. The venue is clean and centrally located downtown Atlanta. Spacious areas to host events within the main event. Unfortunately, the event I attended has probably out grown the space. I do look forward to attending any other event that may utilize this venue.

Georgia A. Logan

I bartended at a wedding at the Georgia Freight Depot. It is a lovely venue for all occasions.

Lakeisha Aiken

Attended a Greek event at this venue. It started at 10 pm and went to 3am. This venue is in the heart of downtown. Literally like across the street from The Underground. During the week, after 6p, not many food options around. I walked about 10 blocks to find food. If you're attending an event at this location that's not catered, eat before you go. The venue is beautiful for evening events. They have cute retro street lights that illuminate the entire patio area. Great for parties, celebrations, maybe even small concerts.

Xay Barron

Had a training session here for Chevrolet Silverado and enjoyed every thing about the building!

Alx C

Catered food was very well done. A little surf and turf. The place was very spacious and there were over 300 attendees to the conference. Although parking might be on the high end.

Neke Barnes

Experienced the Village Market here for the 2nd year in a row and it was awesome. Very beautiful scenery, with natural brick walls inside. It will be a great place for a wedding, a reception, or even a parties.

Tiffany Youngblood

Went the first time to Georgia Farm Bureau Day at the Captain and the luncheon was here. Very lovely place, beautiful interior.

Gina

I attended the Family Food Festival held Sunday, June 16th. I was one of their handicapped guest. Apparently, the event planners didn't give any considerations for attendance of handicapped people. Accessibility was a struggle throughout the entire event. Upon arrival, since this building had not been updated with the new standard sizes doors, there was a struggle to get the second door open for wheelchairs, etc. to enter. Several areas of the main floor's set-up didn't allocate ample space to maneuver in a crowded environment. Also, there should have been some requirements implemented for the participants providing food & drinks regarding the amount of the sample to be distributed per guest, because some provided more to some guest than to other guest in the same line. The majority of the tables used a standard half oz. or one oz. serving container. Some of them gave me a full container and some gave me barely enough to cover the bottom of the container, which was unfair. The organizer should have had the amount to be served as a stipulation of the registration; therefore, advising how much to be provided & distributed to accommodate this event. Otherwise, I enjoyed it.

I went to the vegan festival and expo. I had a wonderful time. The venue wasn't big enough for the amount of vendors and it got hot inside after a while, but the festival itself was great. Great food and products to purchase.

Rachel Wilson

They have construction going on at this location and I do not like how the depot doesn't own the parking lot sitting right in front of their establishment. I attended this depot for a church function and had an amazing time. There was a stilt walker, second line dancers, and a live band it was amazing. Just wasn't thrilled with the parking lot and construction. The staff was amazing and wonderful to work with.

Amelia Hamilton

The best venue for a wedding or event! A beautiful old building that you can use for anything. We had our wedding and reception there and everything turned out perfect. Kinisha is so fun and easy to work with and made sure everything ran smoothly. The in house catering was AMAZING. Some of the best food in Atlanta for sure! I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding in Atlanta. Great location and an overall beautiful venue.

shaniqua tiera

Attended the Pancakes & Booze Art Show and it was great experience vending. Heavy traffic of like-minded locals to connect with. Venue was huge and creatively set-up for artist to showcase their art. Parking was reasonable.

Bennit Hayes

Mayor threw an epic after party

stephen moore

Great time at Pancakes & Booze! Need more trashcans.

Juliana m

This is a nice event space. It's very spacious. I showed a few paintings in a Pancakes and Booze art show. Very limited onsite parking, so either plan to ride share or park on the street or a nearby parking lot.

Pedro Ban

Our daughter had their wedding here. Great location in downtown ATL. However, if u truly want a memorable occasion, select Designs by Devereux out of CLT for that WOW effect.

Kelly Marble

I had a good time at Georgia Freight Depot supporting The Black Village Market. The vintage building has a rustic charm with southern character. This place is a hidden gem. I would consider going back.

Deaf Guy Chronicles

I was filming a movie in that area so holding was in this building. Cool place.

MC Davis

Chic occasions had a bridal show here. It doesn't really show off the space with so many vendors there. Parking was strange and very few handicapped spots.

Angelo Giuffrida

Very cool venue, is versatile and whilst I was there for a corporate function I can certainly see the potential in any event to be held within this space.

Stephanie Dykes

Very spacious, great inside and outside areas, good facilities (water fountains, bathrooms, etc). Underground Parking lot is right beside it. I went here for the Atlanta Cheese Festival, and it was fantastic!

Jason Smith

We were there for the maker faire and found it to be an excellent venue for the event. Would have appreciated food options nearby, and the guidance from parking was not great.

Jeff Short

Nice place to be. This is a place that should be considered a safe and fun place if you tend to like places similar to this place. But then how could you even know what type of "place" this is without visiting it. Ignore comments and just come check it out. It's recommended by many. You have approval.

Gabriela Blooming

Beautiful venue. Staff were friendly and the interior was nicely decorated. Driving here can be difficult due to the one-way streets in Atlanta.

Will Hill

Went to Pancakes and Booze. Great venue! Plenty of space.

Crystal Leitch

I attended an event here and the location was nice and the building was large. The event held here was overcrowded and not well thought through. This place held up to its name it is truly beautiful inside.

Nathan Anders

Usually come here for events/etc, was recently here for the Pancakes & Booze Art Show. Definitely great atmosphere, service, people, and music.... I go pretty much every year

Tony Rossi

Great space and great people 👍 👏 …

Greg Treadway

Been to this venue many times for events. Always lovely. Great space with nice staff. Easy parking and great location.

Dona Mathews

Most of the events I've been to here has been fantastic! It's a beautiful location. Always staffed properly, and always professional

nas d

Nice venue for small to medium sized event.... Multiple rooms and slim to none parking. Freight Depot has the potential to be nice with some fabulous decor

Kristen Donahue

It's outdoors so highly dependent on the weather. I don't remember seeing any bathrooms outside but I'm sure there was at least a port a potty somewhere. Closest parking is street for around $3.00 for 1.5 hours.

Aries Love

Went Here for an event last night

Challah Muhqueed

I went to outdoor reggae concert. The music was awesome

Jen Lackey

Georgia Freight Depot is a great wedding site. My client's loved the history and the feel of the venue. The wedding turned out great. I look forward to working at the Freight Depot again soon!

Bruce Graves

This place is really nice for any event! I was there for an art exhibit but would be great for your next event!

Amy Gutting

I was here for a business luncheon, and the food was really good. The staff was on top of refills, and I love the brick interior and history that shows in the background of any events held here.

Hae Hae

The inside of the space was perfect for the Christmas craft market. No direct parking available on site but there was a paid lot about 2 blocks away.

Doug Abbott

Highly recommend this as a wedding venue. Food was excellent (our guests are still talking about it), venue is beautiful, and staff is attentive and organized.

Smiley Face

Pancake and Booze was great. Nice facility. Clean, breathable and safe

I McCormick

This place is a nice little slice of history and I'm so glad that Atlanta kept it up. It makes a nice meeting place every year for the Mental Health Day at the Capitol.

M S

My friend and I came here for a Pride event, the space was beautiful!

YarProductionz Y.A.R.

This will be a great place for a wedding or or ception or private party last time I was there I did a gig around Christmas for Satan oh I meant that I worked with Satan and his name that day was and still is... Mike Ertle

Andrew Bauman

Beautiful, modifiable, industrial space. Paid parking. Great venue for food and art events.

Jourdan Scott

It's a huge venue it's looks well kept I would go here again and a heartbeat

Dominique V

I was too busy on the dancefloor to notice anything but the amount of space there is in here.

Amy Roberson

Maybe it's just the events I've been to here, but I'm not a huge fan of the space. The restrooms aren't the best and the flow of the space is odd

Craig Scarlett

Great repurposing of the old World of Coca-Cola site. Very good for both indoor and outdoor events.
