Atlanta is big, depending what terminal you arrive in and where you need to go that might eat up most of your layover.

If you have lots of time, Concourse E is the international terminal and has the best food court by far. However, it does take a few minutes to get back and forth, so plan accordingly. Airport is an airport, sit at the bar closest to your gate and enjoy.

Same here. I’ve been to that airport a dozen times or so and have never come close to missing a flight during a layover. LAX on the other hand, now that is a big airport.

Big airport is different than poorly laid out airport. Hartsfiled is well layed out and has good inter-terminal transportation… there is a reason it is the busiest airport in the world.
