This week, I'm doing something a little different. Instead of covering all of Gwinnett, I'm zooming in on one neighborhood: Peachtree Corners.

Whether you live there, pass through it, or have been meaning to check it out — this one's for you.

Before we dive in, I just want to let you know that next week we will be doing a special giveaway. So be on the lookout next Tuesday and Thursday.

Let's go! 🍑

This week's feature digs deep into one of Gwinnett's most beloved cities — a place with a world-class Town Green, incredible dining, Gwinnett's only Trader Joe's, and a community that genuinely feels like a neighborhood.

The Parkside

Tucked right next to the Peachtree Corners Town Green playground, The Parkside is a brand-new Southern comfort bistro that's quickly becoming a neighborhood favorite. Their hot honey truffle sliders are dangerously good, the fried green tomatoes are a work of art, and the patio overlooks the playground — making it the perfect spot for families. The owners are warm, the vibe is casual and welcoming, and the food is anything but ordinary.

📍 5170 Town Center Blvd Suite 410, Peachtree Corners

🕐 Tue–Fri 11AM–9PM | Sat–Sun 8AM–10PM/9PM

Stäge Kitchen & Bar

This one has been hiding in plain sight along Peachtree Pkwy and it deserves way more attention. With a menu that spans cream pasta, seafood gumbo, Philly cheesesteak, and yakitori bowls — all under one roof — Stäge is the kind of restaurant that surprises you on every visit. Reviewers consistently rave about the attentive service and the artwork on the walls that makes the atmosphere feel elevated without being stuffy.

📍 5260 Peachtree Pkwy, Peachtree Corners

🕐 Mon–Thu 11AM–10PM | Fri–Sat 11AM–11PM | Sun 11AM–9PM

Park27 Korean Steakhouse

If you haven't tried Korean BBQ in Peachtree Corners yet, Park27 is your sign. With a nearly perfect 4.9-star rating, all-you-can-eat options, quality meats, and a beautiful interior, this spot is a hidden gem that locals are slowly discovering. Great for groups, date nights, or a fun family dinner.

📍 5145 Peachtree Pkwy Suite 470, Peachtree Corners

🕐 Daily 11AM–10PM (Fri–Sat until 11PM)

Trader Joe's at The Forum — Peachtree Corners

Did you know that the Trader Joe's located at The Forum in Peachtree Corners is the only Trader Joe's in all of Gwinnett County? Neighbors from Suwanee, Buford, Lawrenceville, and Duluth all make the drive down for it — and for good reason. From the famous Mandarin Orange Chicken and Everything Bagel Seasoning to seasonal specialties, fresh flowers, quality wine, and organic options at prices that are genuinely hard to beat — Trader Joe's is a Gwinnett treasure hiding in Peachtree Corners.

If you haven't been in a while (or ever), this weekend is a great excuse. 🛒

📍 5185 Peachtree Pkwy Suite 101, Peachtree Corners (The Forum)

🕐 Daily 9AM–9PM

If you've never spent an afternoon at Peachtree Corners Town Center, you're missing one of Gwinnett's best community spaces. Built around a stunning two-acre Town Green, this area has become the true heartbeat of the city — with something for every age and every mood.

Here's what makes it special:

The Town Green hosts free events throughout the year — from summer concert series to seasonal festivals to yoga on the green. It's the kind of place that makes you proud to be a Gwinnett neighbor.

📍 5140 Town Center Blvd, Peachtree Corners, GA 30092

While the big Town Green concert series kicks off in summer, Peachtree Corners Town Center is always worth a visit this weekend for a relaxed afternoon out. Here's how to make the most of it:

🍽️ Dine on the Green — Grab lunch or dinner at The Parkside, Stäge Kitchen & Bar, or one of the many restaurants surrounding the Town Green and enjoy the open-air atmosphere.

☕ Coffee + a Stroll — Start your morning at Sequel Coffee Co. or Giulia Italian Bakery, then walk the Town Center area or pop into The Forum for some shopping.

🛒 Trader Joe's Run — Make it a family outing and stock up on your favorites at Gwinnett's only Trader Joe's. Pro tip: go early Saturday morning for the best selection.

🛝 Playground + Lunch — Let the kids play at the Town Green playground while you grab a bite from The Parkside right next door. It doesn't get more convenient than that.

I'm a big believer in lifting up great local voices — and this week I want to introduce you to a newsletter that pairs perfectly with Gwinnett Best, especially if you're in real estate or just love knowing what's coming to your neighborhood before everyone else.

It's called Gwinnett Realty Briefing, and it's one of the sharpest, most well-researched local newsletters in the county. Every Tuesday morning, they break down zoning decisions, school updates, and major county and city projects — the kind of insider intel that helps you understand where Gwinnett is headed before it hits the news.

Recent issues have covered things like Loganville's fast-changing real estate landscape, a new 300-unit apartment community breaking ground near Dacula, and what the Murphy Middle School rezoning means for families across the county. It's smart, specific, and 100% free.

If you're a realtor, investor, homeowner, or just someone who loves staying ahead of what's coming to Gwinnett — I think you'll love it.
