baw just summed it up.
There is plenty to do at the battery north of Atlanta as he said. Sport and Social is a cool, though crowded fun time.
PBR bar is also fun. You're about 20-30 away from downtown, but all the recommendations above are superb.
If you are in to hiking there re tons of fantastic trails within walking distance of the battery at Bob Callan Trail/Palisades unit of the Chattahoochee River national park. And Kennesaw Mtn about 25 minutes north of the Battery is an absolute gem of a park.

Be aware that the roads and traffic and drivers here are absolute shite at all hours of every day.
Stay off 285 as much as you can

Red Hare is a brewery that's a little closer to the area of the park (slightly further north). Not as nice of a spot as Monday Night, Sweetwater, or others, but if traffic looks bad getting into town or you just want to stay outside the perimeter, it's worth a shot. Quality beers.

Monday Night Brewing has 2 locations now and make fantastic beers, if heading into town, I'd put them on the list over Sweetwater. Red Brick rebranded to Atlanta Brewing Co and I think they've had a nice resurgence in their beer quality as well.

Antico Pizza at the battery is very good. Plenty of good eating options there.

You should have a great time... All of the recommendations above are solid.

It is the South's version of Gettysburg. You can't do it all in a day. But go to the main park, spend time in the museum, then hike up the mountain. They have shuttles too.

Very close to Braves area, right up I-75 about four exits, then about 5 minutes off the interstate.
