How to
Build an Atlanta Conference Week Food List
Mosey · November 11, 2026 · 5 min read

An Atlanta conference week food list is a shared list in the Mosey app, sorted by day, with one note per place, so colleagues know where to eat without a group chat. This page shows how to build one around Downtown meetings, with Paschal's, Atlanta Breakfast Club and Broad Street BBQ as examples.
What is an Atlanta conference week food list?
A conference week is five days of the same problem: where do we eat that is close, quick and good enough to talk in? A list answers that once. You build it before you travel, add places as you hear about them, and send the link to the people you are traveling with.
The list is not a review site. It is your shortlist, in your words, ordered the way your week will run. Each place gets a line on why it belongs, such as "counter service, ten minutes from the convention hall."
Which Atlanta convention restaurants are near Downtown?
The Georgia World Congress Center and State Farm Arena sit on the Northside Drive side of Downtown, and The Infatuation's guide groups the nearby restaurants by area: South Downtown, Centennial Yards, Castleberry Hill and Northside. A few places that appear in more than one outlet can anchor your list.
Atlanta Breakfast Club. The Infatuation lists gulf shrimp and creamy grits and a chicken and waffle sandwich, and a chef recommended its shrimp and grits to Atlanta Magazine. It fits an early day.
Broad Street BBQ. The Infatuation lists brisket, wings and griddled cakes at its South Downtown counter, and Atlanta Magazine placed it next to the Five Points MARTA station.
Paschal's. A soul food restaurant that The Infatuation describes by fried whiting, yams and collards, and that the AJC lists among Atlanta's long-running restaurants. It suits a dinner with colleagues who want a sit-down meal.
For the wider area, the Downtown guide covers the streets around Centennial Olympic Park, and the stadium meal guide lists more places within a short walk. The US food guides cover other cities if your next conference is elsewhere.
Where to eat in Atlanta for a week: how to set up the days
Give each day its own section, so the list reads like an itinerary. A simple plan:
- Monday: arrival. Somewhere easy near the hotel, with a note on how late the kitchen runs.
- Tuesday and Wednesday: meeting days. A fast breakfast, a counter-service lunch and one dinner with the team.
- Thursday: the long dinner. A table for a group, ordered in advance if you can.
- Friday: departure. A place near your hotel or the train, with an early start.
In the Mosey app, sections are part of a list, and each place can carry a note under "Why it belongs." Use it for the practical things: how far, how fast, what to order. Do not put prices or opening hours in the note unless you checked them recently, because they change.
How do you cover Atlanta work trip food outside Downtown?
Meetings move. If your week includes Midtown or Buckhead, add a section for each. The Midtown guide and the Buckhead business lunch guide are good places to find names.
If you are flying in, add a note on the first meal and the last. Atlanta is a big, spread-out city, and a hotel shuttle or a car service may decide how far you can go. The simplest rule is to keep dinners within a short ride of the hotel.
How do you share a food list with colleagues?
Open the list, choose Invite people, and send the link. Anyone with the link can join as a collaborator, even if they are not on Mosey yet, so a colleague can add a place from their phone before they land. If you prefer, invite people you follow who follow you back. A QR code or a list link makes it easy to share in person at a registration desk or in a team meeting.
You choose who sees the list. A private list is seen only by the people on it, which suits an internal trip. A public list can be found and followed by anyone, which suits a list you want to hand to a wider group, such as a conference attendee channel. You can change this later.
Collaborators can add their own places and notes, so the list reflects the whole group, not only you. Agree on a naming habit: a place name, then a short note.
How does the list connect to rating?
A list is your shelf of places to try. A rating is your view of a meal. After you eat, you can rate the place and each dish, add tags such as Business Lunch or Group Dining and tag the colleagues who ate with you. They can add their own rating of the same meal. Following people shows what they rated and saved, so a team that follows each other can see where everyone ate. The lists page describes how lists work in the app.
Start the list on your phone before you travel, add three places per day and send the link to the first colleague today.
Before you board, open the Mosey app, start the list and send the invite link to your team, then rate each meal you eat so the next conference week begins with a head start.
Questions
Common questions
How do I make a food list for a conference trip to Atlanta?
Open the Mosey app, create a list, name it and choose whether it is public or private. Add places by searching their names, give each a short note under "Why it belongs," and group them into sections by day. Invite colleagues with a link when it is ready.
Can colleagues add places to the list?
Yes. Invite people you follow who follow you back, or send an invite link. Anyone with the link can join as a collaborator, even if they are not on Mosey yet. Collaborators can add their own places and notes, so the list reflects the whole team.
Which Atlanta restaurants are near the convention district?
The Infatuation groups restaurants near the Georgia World Congress Center and the stadium by area. Places named in more than one outlet include Atlanta Breakfast Club, Broad Street BBQ and Paschal's. Check hours, the address and the walk before you plan a meal around any of them.
Should the list be public or private?
Private suits an internal trip, because only the people on the list see it. Public suits a list you want to share with a wider group, because anyone can find, save and follow it. You can change the setting later, so start private if you are unsure.
What's the best way to keep track of where to eat in Atlanta for a week?
Mosey is a food app for finding, rating and sharing places to eat by the dish. In Atlanta, build a list with sections for each day, add a note on every place, invite colleagues with a link and rate each dish afterwards. Following friends shows what they rated and saved.
