Bottle cap and opener.

Giant Bottle Opener and Bottle Cap

The information kiosk outside the World of Coca-Cola is built in the shape of a giant bottle opener with a giant Coke bottle cap as an awning.

Take pity on the poor staffers who have to stand here on a 95 degree Atlanta afternoon.

Secret Formula Vault.

The New World of Coca Cola

When you enter the New World of Coca Cola building, you're welcomed with a mini can of Coke, then ushered through the double doors to start your self-guided tour. We had a great time and took lots of pictures. The tour lasted about an hour and a half.

World of Coca Cola

It must be noted that there is a hefty admission fee. $16 when I went in May of 2015. I have a very high tolerance for the absurdly sublime, and I love cheesy weird things. But for me this was like paying $16 for a walk through an infomercial. It wasn't "so bad it was good;" it was simply bad, even offensive.

[Loretta P, 05/12/2015]

The marketing cheese is more pungent in the New World of Coca-Cola than it was in its predecessor, the old World of Coca Cola (Although for its time the old World was pretty pungent, too).

Avoid Beverly.

The New World of Coca-Cola

Interesting. Don't forget to try the different sodas but I don't recommend the one named Beverly. The employees were very helpful.

[Eileen, 06/09/2013]

Yes, by all means -- avoid Beverly.
