TL;DR
Most intercity minibuses and buses depart from Ortachala bus station. Trains, including to Batumi, leave from Tbilisi Central Railway Station.
A minibus to Rustavi (no route number, marked 'Rustavi' on the sign) passes by — you need to cross the road from the station to flag it down. There's also bus/minibus route 24 heading toward Ortachala, but it stops a bit further from the station — check a map for the exact stop.
