Mercedes-Benz Stadium is stepping up its game, on and off the field. From exclusive clubs to food for thought, here are the best places to grab a bite this season.
MOLLY B’S
For Falcons fans who want to add a taste of luxury to their game day experience, Molly B’s (@mollybsatlanta) is the place to be. The Southern-inspired chophouse boasts a panoramic view of the field, premium dining and a full bar, so it’s no surprise this exclusive club is members only through the first quarter. Luckily for fans, the hot spot has two concession stands open to the general public.
Location: Sections 133 and 338
Best Bite: Molly B’s switches up its specials every game day. From smoked brisket grilled cheese to prosciutto-and-Swiss-stuffed challah, we recommend going with the pick of the day.
SUBLIME DOUGHNUTS
Sweet tooth? Say no more—Sublime Doughnuts (@sublimedoughnuts) has you covered. This Atlanta favorite made a name for itself through its specialty sweets—and after receiving love from the likes of Food Network and Food & Wine, we get the hype.

WEST NEST
Owned and operated by local nonprofit Westside Works, West Nest—led by chef Juliet Peters and focused on locally sourced ingredients—allows Falcons fans to put their money where their mouth is. A portion of West Nest’s proceeds will go toward the Westside Works Culinary Arts Program, which educates members of Atlanta’s Westside community in culinary arts.
