Yes — we're on the Eastside Beltline near Trader Joe's. Look for the BeltLine directional sign pointing to the Midtown Promenade exit, then follow the covered breezeway through the retail building. Take the ramp or stairs down, turn left, and pass Trader Joe's. You'll see Handel's Ice Cream below — keep walking past it toward the left and down a short flight of stairs. Apres Diem is to the left of Midtown Art Cinema: look for our wooden lattice patio, then the red umbrellas and metal café tables.
