Five Points MARTA station restaurants (Photos)

If anything, the area around the Five Points MARTA station almost feels like an outdoor food court when it comes to dining, plus there is also a real food court in neighboring Underground Atlanta. Catered toward the business and university student population, most places to eat offer quick service for the weekday crowd, so don't be shocked if a few establishments are closed on the weekend. But if you are in the area for work, school or sight-seeing, here are the restaurants to choose from on the major surrounding streets.

Upper Alabama Street/Underground Atlanta
Just across the street from the Peachtree Street station exit on Upper Alabama is a Waffle House and further down a Quiznos for a quick sandwich. Below the street in Underground Atlanta are several other food options:
