    Avoid the drive thru if possible - 15 minute wait
    CJ T.

    First off, we do love this location. The manager and staff are very nice. The prices are a little steep. My wife and I each had a sandwich, 1 cup of soup we shared, a latte and she had an ice tea with an 18% tip equaled a little over $60. And that was lunch. We love the ambiance and watching the people outside. The vanilla latte was perfect. The grilled chicken avocado sandwich my wife had was so chewy. Unfortunately we ordered this same sandwich to go for her mom and we she opened it up the sandwich was burnt on both ends. Look at the picture. So crazy they would allow this to go out. I did call and spoke with Bronson who was so accommodating. He did say he would refund the sandwich. Sadly though my mother-in-law was left with a burnt sandwich. Yes, we were offered to come back to redo the sandwich but it's 20 minutes away and it was just after the snow storm so needless to say we respectfully declined. We'll still come back to this place because of the people working there more than anything else. It would be nice if they get their cooks to be more thoughtful and pay attention to what they are doing.

    Atwater's is such a great place to grab a quick, chill bite for lunch with a friend! I love the tofu bahn mi sandwich so much- it is so flavorful and fresh. It doesn't look like much but it's super filling. The honey lavender oat latte is also divineeeee. The food comes out super quick even when it's super busy! I love how packed it is even on weekdays off hours! Shows how great their food and service is. The outdoor seating and drive thru options are also convenient.

    First time here! Great experience! My son and I stopped in before I took him back to Towson. He had the grilled cheese & bacon sandwich which came with sliced apples. He said it was very good! I had a half of Atwater's chicken salad sandwhich and it was perfect!! I also got a cappuccino which was amazing. The service was great, they brought everything to your table. The inside is kind of small but was perfect for just the two of us. Will be back on Sunday and may do the drive thru!

    Stopped here yesterday after a near by doctor's appointment. Parking was pretty easy. I wasn't expecting it to be so small and tight. The service was welcoming and friendly. It was definitely crowded inside and a little noisy because everyone seemed to be sitting so close. I ordered a grilled cheese with bacon which came with sliced apples. The grilled cheese was a little greasy.. I also grabbed a apple cider. My order was prepared pretty quickly considering it was pretty busy. I decided to eat in my car because it was no seating left inside. I enjoyed my grilled cheese with bacon. It was very tasty and the sliced apples went well with it. The apple cider was refreshing as well. This was a good and satisfying choice for me.

    Iced Mocha Latte

    To start off, every time I've been to Atwater's (this specific location), it's always been super packed with people. They must be doing something right! I personally couldn't sense a vibe that would make me sit down to eat here-- hence one star off. But I must say, they have the best coffee in the area. I usually order an iced mocha latte or last time, I got a seasonal drink (pumpkin spice latte & they have real pumpkin bits in it!). The coffee is never watered down nor too strong that I can't finish it. It has the perfect amount of sweetest and honestly feels refreshing. If you're ever in the area to get a coffee, try this place. This will be worth your time! Plus side, they have a ton of cute jams and muffins near the front.

    I was in the mood for a light lunch and after some deliberation, I decided on Atwater's. They have soups, salads, sandwiches, pastries and a few other small breakfast items. They had a drive through which was very convenient especially because the parking lot it is located in is very chaotic and it can be quite difficult to find a spot. I was also in a bit of a rush so this was perfect. I ended up ordering the chicken bacon and avocado sandwich and adding on their feta spread. The chicken breast was a little dry, I don't think I would have enjoyed it on it's own. However, the components of the sandwich worked really well together. The addition of the feta really elevated the sandwich, it was creamy, salty and really made up for the dryness of the chicken. The avocado and arugula tasted really fresh and the sandwich comes on a brioche roll which was perfectly soft. It's important to note that all of their breads are made in house which definitely added to the freshness of the sandwich. My only criticisms would be that the drive through was slightly slow, the chicken breast was over cooked, and it was a little pricey for what you receive. However, overall, this was the perfect place for a quick lunch made with fresh ingredients. I would give it a 3.5 if I could.

    This was our first visit here, and we decided to stop in for lunch. Parking was brutal on Saturday, but we managed to squeeze into a spot nearby. This place is very small on the inside and has limited seating. The menus are available at the counter as well as near the front entrance. After glancing at the menu, I ordered a bowl of gumbo and a bacon and grilled cheese sandwich, which came with a side of sliced apples. Hubby ordered the country breakfast meal. Along with our meal, I ordered an iced tea that was sweetened with some sweetner, and hubby had coffee. We were able to find seating and enjoy our beverages while waiting for our meals. The food was good. Hubby said he was still hungry after his meal. He felt that for the price, the meal could be more filling.

    This place used to be a good place but one bad experience can change all of that on a dime. Which…read moreis what happened to us. We came in for a nice breakfast early in the morning (literally 5 tables of customers - including us). The waitress gave us a booth and 10 minutes later decided to come back for our drinks so we ordered our food as well considering how slow she was working. It's early so we definitely need our coffee at this point. 10 minutes past and she literally did everything else but bring us our drinks. After disappearing for another 5-10 minutes we still don't have our drinks and by now our food is probably about ready. So I get up and explain to the kitchen manager (Julian) that we don't even know where our waitress is and she is out OFO (military term) and asked if we could get our coffee. He huffs and puffs because that's not his job but agrees. I sit down thinking all is good. He comes with the coffee and fills up my wife's coffee and I tell him that he doesn't have to pour it; I can do it and thanked him. He then, in a condescending tone, lectures us on "good vibes" and this is a "good vibe place so refrain from insulting the wait staff" and continues his lecture. Seriously? At this point I go thru our convo and at no point did I insult her other than to say she's no where in the building and yes she was OFO because she wasn't doing her job after waiting a decent amount of time before saying anything. So now I'm upset and we decide that's it, we are leaving. On the way out I see the manager that we talked to as we walked in and explained the situation as Julian tried to come up and hear what I said. So I literally spelled out all the facts and yes I did say OFO but did not insult anyone but merely described her lack of service. That particular manager apologies and Julian huffed and walked back to the kitchen after the facts and timelines were laid out. I told the manger that we will not come back especially when there are other First Watch restaurants nearby. So let me get this straight, I'm expected to pay what we have to pay (this place is a little pricier) for our meals then tip 20% for subpar service after waiting forever and get a lecture from Julian who's upset because I described poor service in a more direct tone. As I said, the expectation is to provide reasonable service in a timely manner then you may get 20% but 20% of my hard earned money for these "good vibes" is not where I'm spending my money.

    I'm not sure I even know where to start. Me and my best friend rolled up (without reservations -…read moreoops) but were greeted and seated almost immediately. The area near the front window almost feels like a private table. It was definitely giving a great vibe. We checked the menu prior to picking this place and they had EXACTLY what I wanted. I had a big ole brunch of their Grand Marnier Strawberry French Toast which was a three stack of THICCCCC cut Texas bread. It was better than I hoped for! And I brought at least half of it home, because ole greedy butt over here also got the platter with the home fries (I asked for onions and got this caramelized onion topping that was almost a jam. Yummm), the bacon and the eggs your way (scrambled with cheese). My companion had this big ole omelette with a lot of veggies and shared my french toast. The sauce they served with the home fries was sooooo good - it was almost like Heinz 57 sauce but with less of a vinegary bite. The jam that came for my English Muffin was delicious and praise GOD they served butter that wasn't ice cold and unspreadable so yeah hella points for that. For the mimosas, we did the "buy the carafe and the bottle", with a carafe of cranberry juice and a bottle of Cava Prosecco. I loved that we were able to select WHICH bubbles we wanted and for two people it worked out very well price wise. The host (tall guy with a mohawk) and our server (Robyn) were absolutely fantastic. Personable and friendly and very attentive, very much able to answer any questions we had (THANK YOU ROBYN!!!). In short - this place is a gem and yall should go! Be mindful of the parking in the area, but dont let that stop you from a delicious meal in a lovely setting!!
