brunch spot on Saturday and overall had a really pleasant experience. The space was cute, clean, and had plenty of outdoor seating, which made it perfect for a relaxed brunch vibe. The setup is casual--you order inside and they bring the food out to your table--and the service was friendly and efficient. The smoked salmon toast was definitely a highlight--fresh, flavorful, and well put together. The pancakes were also delicious and cooked perfectly. The veggie scramble, however, fell a bit flat and could really benefit from more seasoning and overall flavor. One downside was the lack of paper towels, both in the restroom and in the dining area, which was a bit inconvenient. Overall, I would definitely go back. It's a solid brunch spot with great potential--I just wish they offered mimosas to round out the experience
Food was good! Staff were nice and it's a cute place. $45 for two meals and 2 coffees/lattes. You order when you come in and then find a table.
Solid brunch spot in Kennesaw! I was with some friends running near by and we had a big crew so we were looking for a more casual spot that could accommodate us on a Saturday morning. The staff was super friendly and patient with us which I really appreciated! I got a vanilla latte and a bacon egg and cheese biscuit with a side of grits! I also shared some of the hashbrown casserole with someone and it was all delish! A solid biscuit and I really loved how peppery the grits were. The hashbrown casserole had a good amount of cheese and it was great but honestly I think my favorite part of all this was the price. I got the biscuit, grits and a latte for under $20 and I was able to tip which I loved! The latte wasn't the best one I have ever had but I still enjoyed it! Great casual brunch spot to try if you are in the area.
I passed by this location many times but when I visited I realize how big it is. From inside. Embiance was great. Very welcoming entry. They side you right want I like smiley staff. Restroom was clean. I tried cold coffee with dark chocolate was good and they're beetbutter Avacado toast yummmm
I mean you can't go wrong with weekend brunch here and I'm glad they added some new items to the menu from their Marietta Local location. We always go for their ginormous chicken biscuits and their delicious Nashville hot chicken wrap. We've been patronizing this place for the past 4+ years and it continues to satisfy. Weekend brunch gets extremely busy and seating becomes extremely hard to find inside/outside after 1100.
Always love the breakfast here. The biscuits are so fluffy and buttery! Someday I will try the lunch or dinner. It can get crowded and eating outside is nice if the weather is ok. Good service as they helped my mom with her coffee.
The restaurant is very cute and has a good location near Kennesaw mountains so you can grab breakfast and go for a nice hike or a walk right around the corner. When we went in, we were told to take a menu and then order at the host stand and then be seated and wait for our food. We got the Nashville, hot chicken sandwich with one with cheese grits, and one with hash brown casserole. The sandwich was delicious , not too spicy, but had enough of a kick. As far as the sides go, the hash brown casserole was a winner and I would definitely order that again! The hostess didn't seem very friendly. Maybe she was just having an off day, but this being our first time there I was definitely hoping for a little friendlier of an attitude. We didn't really have a server, they bring out your food and leave it and then we were pretty much on our own. We didn't need anything which was fine.
Loved it! The line was out the door when I got there and which is always a good sign. Got through the ordering fairly quickly with no issues. Ordered the biscuits and gravy with friend chicken and it was delicious. The gravy was great which I'm usually picky over. The chicken was moist and tender but the star was the biscuit! It was soft, hearty, and pretty perfect. Will return!
I want to start this review by saying that Basecamp is a place that my entire family loves to eat at and has been in our restaurant rotation for years. However, my most recent experience was not positive and should have been handled much better by the restaurant. I did an online order for a salad and added chicken to it, as shown on the receipt. When I picked up the order, I did not check it and when I got home the salad was missing the chicken. So I went back to the restaurant and explained the situation and they threw a to-go cup of chicken down on the counter. No apology, no offer of a refund or comp for their mistake. Just poor customer service and a pathetic way of handling the situation that was completely their fault. I'm going to take both Basecamp and The Local out of the rotation for a while.
This is my second visit to Basecamp at Kennesaw Mountain and it's still great. It's a rustic spot in the mountains but has a very nice feel to it. Service is good. The young lady that took my order was so patient while my 5 year old niece made up her mind on what to order. Ordered my niece the kid's pancakes and I got the fried chicken and French toast combo and coffee. My niece tried my chicken and ate the majority of it. She liked her pancakes while I loved my French toast. The stewed apples were also good. I will skip the coffee next time. It was lukewarm and wasn't that great tasting to me. Overall, it's a great spot to eat.
This was my first visit to Basecamp at Kennesaw and I was planning to order the French Toast. I ordered the bacon infused pecan pancakes served with fried chicken. My dining companion order the chicken Philly. We ordered the self serve drinks and this may have been some of the best sweet tea I've had in Georgia. All the food was served hot and fresh. I only had two small complaints. You pre-tip the servers which is perfectly fine; however, they only bring your food. If you need refills or anything else, it will require you to go inside and get it yourself. Also, the hand cut French fries were not crisp. This was a nice spot for breakfast or brunch especially if going for a hike up Kennesaw Mountain
Before receiving my food, 1st impression not positive. Sunday AM. Packed. Loud & Festive like. Lots of kids. All hard surfaces. 1 room. 'Open' kitchen. PRICEY. 3 pancakes, 2 scrambled eggs, bacon. Coffee. Tip. Total $30. Order in line, then get seat. VERY CREATIVE menu. Home made 'cathead' biscuits. White gravy. Coffee/drinks are serve yourself. Should have tipped only 15%. Minimalist approach. Nothing on table except S&P 'camping' disposable set. Grab extra napkins when squeezing around the drink stand. Server brings fork&knife wrapped in one. Tiny maple syrup plastic container. Wasn't enough for the great fluffy buttermilk pancakes. Small plate filled w/ my order. Bacon was excellent. Owner came by and another server a bit later. I'm sure I could have asked for more syrup. The quality of food is a 5. Hot, hits all the marks. Service is a 5, but I take 1 off for self serve and salad bars. Haha. Atmosphere...kid and family festive. With all the hard surfaces, I suggest outside, but it does sits back from busy road. (I finished my review outside and had a loud Camaro show his age.) BUT, when going to car I realized they have added picnic benches with tent coverings along the side. Finally, it was fast. They've changed a few process things to handle their popularity from a few years ago during my first time. All improvements in terms of speed. They need to be. On my way out, the line was long to order (10:30), maybe 15-20. Constant stream. It was Mother's Day. Assume this is a big breakfast demand. Well handled. Owner present.
Came here for a Saturday brunch & had a wonderful time There's plenty of parking in the lot and we didn't have reservations nor was there a wait around 1145am. I got the pancake special which was bacon praline pancakes & you can add chicken but I added Nashville hot chicken instead of regular. So good! And definitely worth the cost I also got a side of Mac n cheese and it was all delicious and a ton of food I ate about half of one pancake, the chicken and macaroni so breakfast for 2 days around $20 The staff were friendly & you self serve your drinks and some condiments. They take your plates upon departure and were all super helpful. They have patio seating and indoor seating & it's a casual vibe. Dogs common on the patio. I didn't see any cats so not sure if they allow all pets or just dogs.
Reviews are generally positive. Many highlight the friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, and quick service.

Quaint little spot at the bottom of Kennesaw Mountain. Family owned opened only for breakfast/brunch. My food was delicious. Had the breakfast burrito with chorizo sausage. Although there was a lot of people service was quick. If you are in Kennesaw stop in! read more

I have one word for basecamp.. YUM. This is an order at the counter and take a number to the table joint. There is a dedicated parking lot adjacent to the building. We were able to get a spot without a problem and the restaurant was full. In addition to the seating inside, there is outdoor seating right outside the front door and picnic tables set up under a tent along the side in the parking lot. The tables inside were placed pretty close together and there was only one tiny table available so we sat outside at the picnic tables. After ordering the food was brought out to our table. Everything was hot when it arrived. They did run out of jelly so they brought me sugar free jelly which was gross. The food, however, was spectacular. The burrito was huge and served with salsa and sour cream. The chicken biscuit was perfect. They didn't let me add bacon to my biscuit so I just ordered some on the side. The grits were amazing and the apples were the best I've had! We will totally return for another awesome breakfast. There are so many other things I want to try. I'm only sorry we waited so long to try it! read more

This is a quaint breakfast place tucked next to Kennesaw Mountain. We enjoyed our meal very much but we thought for the price we paid the portions were a little tight. My wife ordered the pancake breakfast and a coffee and I had their signature meal, the French toast and fried chicken. The food did taste great but the total for the meal ended up being over $40 and that was before they asked for a tip. Although we wish the prices were a little more reasonable for breakfast food the service was nice and the food was fresh and tasted good. read more

Came in on a Sunday morning at 8:40am and was quickly seated and served right away. The idea of having fried chicken with French toast-- instead of waffles-- was very tempting! This plate did not let me down!!! It was a delicious mix of perfectly cooked fried chicken with amazing French toast. The cinnamon apples that came on the side were also on point. Definitely recommend and wish I lived closer so I would come back any time! read more

Went to this restaurant on a Saturday morning. Upon arrival there was a small wait because you place your order at the front and then receive a number and seat yourself. Drinks are self service and the server brings the food to your table once it's ready. The service was pretty fast for the amount of customers they had. There is indoor and outdoor seating available. I ordered the French toast and fried chicken. The chicken was seasoned really well and the French toast was pretty good. Overall, I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more
Came here for a quick breakfast on Sunday. I have been to their sister restaurant multiple times and Marietta Local is solid but think I actually like this location a bit more. They have everything and more than Marietta Local. I had the classic fried chicken and French toast. Everything was hot and the apples were so good on the french toast. Also tried the cinnamon roll pancakes and they were hot and tasty. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the biscuit because it was cold and usually marietta locals biscuits are nice and hot. My recommendations to better the experience would be to add the Marietta Local soda machine to this location. Love those unique sodas! Also adding fresh homemade jelly for the biscuits and fresh juices to the menu would take it to another level! read more
Awesome dog friendly breakfast and lunch spot - perfect to stop at before or after a hike at Kennesaw Mountain. Got to meet the owner and the staff was very nice. He was telling me about his favorite dish- a chicken biscuit with the chicken tossed in Nashville hot sauce. I had actually just ordered exactly that and a side of apples. The apples were so delicious & the chicken biscuit was huge! It had a great flavor and was not too spicy. I think next time I would ask for a little ranch as also. My husband picked the French toast with fried chicken, apples, and asked for a side of their bacon pecan praline sauce. Wow that was good sauce! I didn't get to try the French toast because it was too good he "forgot" to save a bite. It looked amazing. They had an interesting tea selection of mighty leaf teas & I enjoyed the jasmine tea. read more

Ordered the bacon infused pancakes and chicken with a side of Mac n cheese. The chicken was ! The Mac was extremely bland, even after adding salt, pepper and hot sauce. Wasn't for me. The pancakes were soft, and the syrup seemed extremely thin, almost watery. The bacon that was cooked into the pancake was a little chewy for my liking. I gave it 3 stars because the chicken really was the star! read more

Great breakfast experience. We all had the fried chicken and French toast. We all enjoyed it. The chicken was fried just right. It was seasoned just right. We ordered as we came in and received a number to get our order brought to our table. The French toast accompanied the chicken. We enjoyed the small but roomy dining room with table for 4 seating. We got our own drinks and waited for our food. The wait was Short and the good was good. read more
