Among the voters, 19% of people would enjoy catching a movie and going mini-golfing at Aurora Cineplex/The Fringe miniature golf (Area 51), which finished third. Movie-going proved popular on rainy days in Roswell, as second place went to Studio Movie Grill on nearby Holcomb Bridge Road. Despite the spot having an Alpharetta address, Roswell residents thought it was worth venturing to the neighboring city to catch a film; it received 21% of votes.
So, which activity was chosen as the best one when it rains in Roswell?
That’s having a beer at Variant Brewing Co. The spot on Norcross Street got 27% of the votes.
