Images: Roswell’s first food hall taking shape in former church Josh Green Fri, 10/18/2024 - 13:47 Two hot Atlanta trends—the redevelopment of former churches and food halls in general—are converging at a single site in one of the metro’s buzziest suburbs.

Construction is wrapping up on Roswell’s first food hall project, Roswell Junction, after transforming a former church at 340 S. Atlanta St., just south of the Fulton County city’s Historic Square.

Roswell Junction officially broke ground in January and is considered part of the broader redevelopment of Atlanta Street, a main Roswell thoroughfare. The city’s famed Canton Street food-and-drink row is located about a mile up the road, to the north.

Partners in the deal include developer Will Colley and food-and-beverage experts with Coliccio Consulting and Cushman & Wakefield.

Plans for 12,000-square-foot Roswell Junction call for eight unique food concepts, a 2,400-square-foot patio dubbed the “Trailer Park” with an entertainment stage (and Airstream trailer bar), plus other bars and areas for games, including an arcade.

The former Atlanta Street Baptist Church, which relocated to Woodstock, is surrounded by free parking, the development team has noted.

Officials with management company National Food Hall Solutions told Appen Media this week the food hall could start opening as soon as Monday.

Signed tenants include Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee (moving and expanding from a location on the same street), Across the Coast Seafood and Flying Fish (housed today in Atlanta’s Chattahoochee Food Works), Mad Dad Philly’s, Pretty Little Tacos, Shawarma Shack, and burger concept Cleaver & Co., per the news site.

Roswell Junction will have a 350-person capacity, with roughly 100 parking spaces, and a greenspace behind the main building for yard games such as cornhole.
