Between October and next spring, the Beltline-straddling Krog District expects to welcome a host of new retail and dining options, including additions in high-profile places. 

Four new tenants—Eggslut, Nando’s, Tyde Tate Kitchen, and YETI—will be dotted throughout the district as a means of boosting its allure as an all-day, cultural food and shopping destination along the Beltline’s Eastside Trail, according to project officials.  

Charlotte-based developer Asana Partners completed construction on The Krog District in early 2023, replacing a gravel parking lot and industrial buildings with more retail, office, and parking options around Krog Street Market, an Atlanta food hall pioneer. The district also includes adaptive-reuse Atlanta Stove Works and townhome-retail combo SPX Alley.
