We are enjoying this new fall weather in Augusta, with a few new recently opened spots for you to visit. As usual, we're suggesting all spots with good food, great drinks, and even better photo ops.

A View from the Top is Always Better
Edgars Above Broad is Augusta's newest rooftop lounge and restaurant. This place is a few week's shy of its September grand opening and has quickly become one of our favorite spots for a fall date night. Don't forget to snap one for the 'Gram in front of April Henry King's mural that is pictured above.
Augusta's Got Sol
SolFood Kitchen is a locally owned wellness cafe that just recently opened it's doors to Augusta. Specializing in the conscious creations of colorful foods & drinks influenced by a mosaic of cultural cuisines, this new gem offers comfort foods that not only taste good to you, but are good for ya. Be sure to snap a quick photo at their beautiful "sun-inspired" mural painted by Stephanie Forbes.
A Spec-taco-ler Place
Be sure to add Cantina Locale to your list of places to visit this fall. What to order? Grab their chicken nachos with a margarita to pair and let the good times roll.
Public Art Might Be Our Thing
Augusta is filled with so many unique and creative murals and we're adding just a couple to the art scene. Be sure to add the following new murals to your list:
- James Brown mural painted by Cole Phail on the corner of James Brown Blvd and Broad Street.
- Aort Reed's newest Jean-Michel Basquiat inspired mural located just off Greene Street at 11th Street.
- Jay Jacobs' most recent mural located off Broad Street at 11th Street.
We want to be in on all this "Instagrammable" magic so don't forget to use the hashtag, #loveaugusta on your posts.
