Warm amd welcoming café. They have an extensive beverage menu, sandwiches and pastries.

This little cafe has become one of my must-stop places when going to/from Atlanta! This was my second time visiting, with the last visit being a year ago, and I swear the owner looked at me like she'd remembered me from before. Service was quick and friendly! I stopped this time to have my mother try a croffle for the first time ever. We both ordered the Lotus croffle, and I also had a strawberry lemonade. My mom purchased mini pecan cookies to take home. All were delicious! I love that their desserts are just sweet enough without being overly sugary. A perfect laid back cafe with ample seating for studying, quick meetings, or coffee dates.

This was my first visit here the young lady 6/30, was very friendly and explained to me how the croffle is made and how it tastes. I decided on the Crème Brûlée Croffle it was delicious and will definitely return and order that flavor again. I can understand why the Crème Brûlée is the best seller. There's plenty of spacious seating inside, this is an overall place to come study or meet up and talk for a girls afternoon out over matcha or coffee. I also ordered mango matcha and I did not like it very much as it was not sweet at all. The young lady said she could adjust the sweetness. It didn't work for me this time so I'll try it again my next visit and stress that I'd like it sweetened a lot little more than the usual sweetness. UPDATE: Earlier I said I didn't like my Mango Matcha, now I have to change that once I put the straw in my cut and stirred the matcha it was delicious. I didn't realize I shouldn't drink it from the cup without stirring first. I feel so silly now. I changed my four stars to five stars and a newbie like me now will know to stir the matcha first. I received an awards card after ten stamps I believe I get a free item. Sounds fun. Parking is not a problem there's plenty. I can't wait to visit here again.

Peach Tea Americano
Ashley B.

Super cute and minimalist place with great food and drink options. Cafe flat was a coffee meeting spot for me to catch up Roth and old friend. The volume level was great and we were able to have a great conversation without being interrupted by loud music or ambiance. I decided to try something new and go for a peach tea americano and it was AMAZING. No joke I literally looked up the recipe right after to see if I could make it at home. The flavors of the eta and coffee blended perfectly and I was able to finish it very quickly. The seating is nice and I would consider coming back here to get some work done if it wasn't so far away! They have other unique coffee and tea options so I definitely recommend if you're looking to try something new.

Creme brulee croffle, blueberry cream croissant, einspanner
Amanda C.

Cute and aesthetic coffee shop with lots of seating! The cashier was kind and patient as we decided on our croffle - so many flavors to choose from! We ended up with the creme brulee croffle, blueberry cream croissant, and einspanner drink. The creme brulee croffle was amazing - thick and tasty custard with a crunchy top that paired well with the croffle. The croffles here are pre-made, so they don't come hot like other spots. We didn't mind for this flavor. The cream croissant on the other hand was a bit dry - wish the croissant was more buttery - the pastry felt papery or leathery in a way. The cream inside was good though. The einspanner was a wildcard pick for us - ended up being a very strong coffee with a layer of whipped cream on top. Super good if you like strong coffees! Also not sweet which is how we like it. Would come back to try more drinks & other croffles!

Caneles

I tried a hot oat milk latte with honey and cinnamon along with a canelé while my son tried an iced dirty matcha latte from Cafe Flat. Service was fast and friendly. The space is bright, open, and laidback. It's a great place to work or study as they have lots of tables. Cafe Flat offers more than just coffee and tea. They also serve pastries and desserts like croffles, cheesecakes, bingus, and more. They all looked tempting, but I just stuck to my coffee and canelé, which were both wonderful. My son also enjoyed his matcha.

This was my first time at Cafe Flat. I wanted a hot drink before I stopped by my grandparents' house and they live right down the street. I came across this shop by looking on Apple Maps, and they had a bunch of good reviews. Upon entering, I was surprised how big the shop is. The vibe is very minimalistic with an emphasis on high quality food and drinks. They had a pretty big menu! Not only do they have a bunch of drink (both coffee and tea) options, which you can get hot or iced, but they have quite a few food options too. They mainly have like pastries and smaller type things, but they do have some bigger sandwiches as well. The drink menu is pretty unique! I got a pistachio latte, which was honestly pretty good. I had some questions about the other drinks on the menu, and the worker (I am assuming the owner) was knowledgeable about it and provided me with further detail about the drinks. I paid about $7 for my latte, which wasn't terrible, but upon getting my cup, it felt like it wasn't filled to the top. It would've been nice for it to be completely full, but I'm not too made about it. There is plenty of parking in the shopping center. They also do have a stamp card, where after every 10 stamps, you get a free drink I believe. I don't normally come to this area too often, but I kept the card anyways. I would come back for sure, if I ever found myself wanting a good coffee.

The flavor of the yuzu croffle was light and good but the croffle itself was kinda stale and hard. It was very difficult to cut to eat. I liked that there were decaf coffee options but the drinks weren't good/ fairly watered down. Could barely taste the coffee. We tried the iced dalgona latte and vanilla latte. The cafe was well lit and the music wasn't too loud. However with the food and drinks being lackluster, we prob won't be coming back.

Mango Matcha Latte, Pistachio Latte
Carmen P.

Lots of drinks and croffle options here! Stopped by last Friday to do some remote work with friends. This is a good place to work, study, or catch up with friends. The inside is very spacious, airy, and has minimalist decor. I tried the Iced Pistachio Latte and Iced Mango Matcha Latte. The pistachio latte was good with strong nutty flavor. I also liked the mango matcha but it was a little too sweet.

Strawberry Fresh Cream & Yuza Cream Cheese
Karissa K.

I've been meaning to try this place out and I absolutely love the unique croffle options! I got the strawberry fresh cream & yuza cream cheese croffle and they were the perfect sweet! Not overpowering. My favorite was the yuza cream cheese, it reminds me of lemon drop cookies. I also bought some of their macaroons here and they were good, a little more on the sweeter side though. Service was kind and fast. I'll be coming back to try more!

I was craving some yummy Croffles, and noticed this place had high ratings... So the place is chic, with a minimalist decor...and I liked the overhead music played. Even initially, I was a bit disappointed with a rather skimpy variety of Croffles displayed in their window. For some reason, I expected more varieties...and in a way, a more polished display? I decided to try 2 flavors of their Croffles...Blueberry and Injeolmi flavors...and here's the deal. The flavors were really good, but the textures were way off. Not soft, warm, fresh or anything. Nothing like what I had at TwoHa's, for instance! In fact, these Croffles were somewhat hardened, and it was extremely difficult to eat them with the cheap, plastic fork and knife given. I basically had to eat with my hands. Ultimately, it was very disappointing. Given the high ratings here, I expected these Croffles to be fresh, warm, soft...the whole works. Nope...they almost had a hard, stale texture. Again, nothing like the high quality, warm, soft Croffles I've tried elsewhere. I also tried their Iced Matcha Latte...and well, it was WARM. They didn't put enough ice in the drink. Again, disappointing. I doubt I'll be returning here.

What a cute little cafe with great croffles and treats along with plenty of drinks! My friends and I stopped by here in the morning to get breakfast and hangout. We all got three different croffles, and I got the strawberry fresh cream one along with an earl gray latte. They do have plenty of milk options as well which was well appreciated. It took a bit of time to get our food and drinks since there were a few orders ahead of us, but overall I really enjoyed my food and coffee! I've never had a croffle like this one and liked how crispy yet soft it was. The fresh cream had a faint sweetness level and was so airy and light and liked the strawberries on top to complement the dish. I also enjoyed my coffee and liked how there was a faint taste of earl gray in every sip and wasn't overly sweet. The ambiance of the place is quite clean and modern with plenty of seating available to do work or catch up with friends. There's also a giant size parking lot in the front. Overall, a great cafe and can't wait to come back if I'm in the area!

Grapefruit ade
Jordanna B.

Service was exceptional. I ordered the peanut cream latte with grapefruit ade. The latte was perfectly sweet with light peanut undertones. The grapefruit ade was also not overly sweet, refreshing and the sprig of thyme made it WOW! Music is nice, light and cheerful.

The First Level / First Floor is for the coffee, teas, drinks, desserts, pastries, sweets and/or…read moreshaved ice / ice cream. The Second Level / Upper Floor is reserved for if you are going to be ordering/dining in for the pastas and/or savory foods. I only tried their coffee today on the first level. I did go upstairs to check it out and did see a bunch of people upstairs just sitting and chilling on their laptops with their coffees/drinks; so they may not really enforce their "reserved for pasta dining only" rule. Not sure. Ambiance (First Level / First Floor) - clean, nice, laid-back, chill, cool environment. Casual setting. Cool architecture, design, layout, and decor. Can get loud inside as ceilings are high and can get echo-y, especially if there are alot of people. Also, there is music constantly playing in background. Service (First Level / First Floor) - customer service was quick and straightforward. They were nice and polite. A+. No complaints here. Coffee (First Level / First Floor) - tried their "Korean Iced Coffee" for $7.25. It was one size only and one price at $7.25. It was delicious. Almost similar tasting to a Vietnamese coffee in my opinion (both are delicious). That strong, brewed coffee flavor with this delicious milky, sweetened condensed milk taste. I am not exactly sure if they used sweetened condensed milk in the Korean iced coffee, but it sure does taste similar to it. It's quite good. Also had a "Large Hazelnut Hot Coffee" with creamer for $5.95. It was okay. Total with tax for the two drinks was $13.99. Keep in mind that the WiFi is on your receipt as a QR Code at the bottom. So if you want to use the WiFi, ask for the receipt and/or keep the receipt so that you can scan the QR Code in order to use the WiFi. There was no password on the receipt, only a QR Code that you need to scan. Overall - Yes I would recommend this place for a nice little coffee stop. Check it out for yourself. Enjoy!

We have been waiting to try Flavor Rich for some time now, and it was worth the wait. We were…read morefortunate to go on a weekday and were seated immediately. Our server was friendly and helpful. We ordered the classic chicken and waffles and the breakfast plate with cheese grits and cheese eggs. The food was DELICIOUS, and portion sizes were generous. It's rare for everything to taste amazing, and all of it did! We will definitely be back!

-1 hour and 20 minutes wait on wait list (and we think the hostess forgot about us)…read more-30 minutes to wait for food after seated -some elements forgotten on food This was my first time at the suwanee location. Showed up at 11am on Sunday for a birthday brunch. The hostess said there was a wait but could not give us an estimate. We got on their wait list which was on the toast app and texted to us. We sat in the car and waited as people shuffled in and out of the door. There were 7 tables ahead of us according to the app. We waited 1 hour and 20 minutes. We noticed so many people were doing take out orders. We went inside to inquire about the remaining wait time to consider take out instead. When we asked the same hostess who put us down on the wait list, she seemed alarmed when I gave her my name and was like "oh you're (my name)". We asked if we missed something for the wait list and she said no. A table was leaving and she said we could have that one and this was when the wait list said there were 2 tables ahead of us left. My group felt that she may have skipped us or forgotten about us based on her reaction. Our server was very nice. We waited another 30 minutes for food after being seated. My sis wanted to go here for her birthday because of the brunch vibes and mimosas. This was a part of the reason why we just waited the long wait. Turns out this suwanee location does not serve alcohol. :( Food: The shrimp and grits and fish ($25) and grits were pretty good, but I was surprised by how many onions were inside. I have never seen so many onions in grits before. It was in every bite. There were a lot of half cut bulbs of small onions in my grits (as pictured). I also felt that the presentation for the fish and grits was really messy and rushed. The fish and grits ($26) did not have that many onions in comparison. They also asked if we wanted cheese on our grits. We both said yes and it turned out there was a dollar charge added to our receipt for each one. I noticed mine didn't have cheese once I looked back at my photos, but my sister's did based on the color and taste. Hers was yellow on top and more savory. Mine was plainer and white, so I think they forgot my cheese. The shrimp was blackened and seasoned well though. The salmon was also a little dry and didn't pair as well with shrimp since it wasn't crunchy according to my sis. The chicken and biscuit ($18) had a lightly fried and crispy chicken that was very good. However, there was very little gravy just on the bottom of the plate, which was different from the photos where it was covered with gravy sauce on top. It made the dish a bit dry without more gravy. The side of potatoes for $5 was incredibly bland and plain. We barely touched them. The server automatically gave us 10% off our check because our food "took a while to come out" when we did not say anything to them. I wondered if its because they really did forget to seat us from the wait list. The food was pretty good outside of the lack of gravy on the chicken and bland potato side. But the wait time and overall experience to actually dine really took away from the overall experience. The seating is pretty limited to 2 seat tables and bigger groups would take up conjoined tables, which I believe is why the wait was so long. I think we would have had better luck with timing to going our food as so many people were picking up to go orders. The hostess also kept coming to our table to take the menu qr sign and would say sorry and interrupt our meal and then bring it back to interrupt again. She did this twice. The strange thing was that every table had one and we were seated furthest from where she was standing at the front door. I didn't understand why she couldn't have taken it from a closer table or why they didn't have a copy up front. It was disruptive. Overall, the potential for all of our dishes to be really good was definitely there. Some stuff was forgotten on our plates and the long wait really took away from the experience unfortunately.
