There is a cafeteria which opens at noon, it has indoor and outdoor seating and is nice and airy. The food offered is written down on a blackboard and I believe it changes daily. When I was there they had roasted chicken, potatoes, gravy, rice and some vegetables. I think you pay a single price for the whole order. I didn't eat there (because there were no vegetarian options and didn't want to pay a full price for just the vegetables) so I'm not entirely sure of what the charge is -I vaguely remember it being something between 10-15 USD but don't hold me to it.
What would the nearest public transport option from Downtown Atlanta be? I'm staying near the Peachtree Centre. The nearest train station looks quite far from the library. Are there any buses which stop here?
We are driving our own car, stayed last night on McDonough drive. How much is parking at museum and should we drive ourselves or take a cab? How crazy is it to drive to downtown Atlanta?
