Roswell, GA - Never Bored 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( Jul 27, 2010) I have lived in the city of Roswell for the past six months. I find that it is a very pleasant place to live and the people are friendly overall. There is always something going on, therefore you will not suffer from boredom. A favorite hangout spot for the locals is the Windy Ci ...Read More ty Grill. This is a restaurant that is located on Woodstock Road. They have the best pizza in the city of Roswell. On a warm summer night, people like to gather at this restaurant and have a drink on the outside patio.

My teenage kids enjoy going to the Roswell Area Park pool. The pool is really cool because it is Olympic size and a very popular hangout spot for the teenagers during the summer. You can even purchase a drink from the concession stand if you get hot on one of those hot Georgia summer days.

Roswell even has a little piece of Broadway to offer. The Cultural Arts Center hosts numerous plays throughout the year and can be rented out for weddings and different types of functions.

Roswell is a great place to come looking to find some of that great Southern hospitality, you will definitely not be disappointed Read Less
