French toast
Amber Q.

This was a beautifully decorated restaurant. We were happy with all of our food selections - French toast, avocado toast, blueberry pancakes, and salmon Benedict. The restaurant got busy after we came, so although our food arrived fairly quickly, it took a while to wrap up our tab. Overall, Caroline's was a great brunch spot! I would def return and try a cocktail as well.

A beautiful location located in downtown flowery branch. This place has a beautiful girly aesthetic for all of your social media pictures. The service was very top-notch. And the food was phenomenal. The chocolate martini was to die for. Everything felt fresh. The service was great and the place was super cute!

Beignets
Sandra Q.

We wanted to try somewhere new, so we browsed Yelp and decided on this café. Street parking was limited, but there's a decent parking behind the restaurant, which was convenient. The moment we walked in, we were greeted by a very pink, cozy interior -- cute and inviting. The café does get busy, so expect some hustle and bustle. Menu-wise, the selection felt limited compared to what we're used to. We started with the beignets, but unfortunately they were too dense and tough for our liking. The chocolate sauce didn't add much flavor either. For our mains, I ordered the Hopewell Farm grass-fed burger with pimento cheese, and my husband had the buttermilk pancakes. The burger was delicious -- the pimento cheese really elevated it. The horseradish is made in-house which was creamy and delicious...coming from someone who does not like horseradish. The pancakes were huge, fluffy, and very filling. Overall, the food was good and flavorful. Service was fine -- friendly but nothing remarkable. It's a cute spot to try once, especially if you like a photo-worthy atmosphere, but it probably wouldn't be our regular go-to.

What a super cute place ! Great for non vegans ! Definitely wished it was more diverse with vegan options ...in their menu! The service was friendly and quick! The food was amazing and they do have a variety of options for alcoholic drinks as well as non alcoholic beverages. Super cute spot will be coming back when in Georgia!

Avocado Toast on Gluten-free Bread with Potatoes
Dixie B.

This is a fabulous little place on Main Street. The decor is a little cutesy - definitely will be a favorite with women - but the food is delicious and done well. Service was also good. We came during off hours as we traveled the area. I recommend you try this place. Let me know what you think.

Server was so polite and professional as it was our first time, we had lots of questions. The ambiance was relaxing with happy customers! The blueberry pancakes were absolutely the best I have ever had. My husband ordered the classic eggs and the roasted potatoes were huge! Took some home and they were just as delicious the next day. We will return!

Biscuit with House made berry jam
Paula M.

This was our first time here and the food at Caroline's was delicious and definitely a 5 star rating. The interior was super cute and clean. It's girly with lots of pink but has a chic cafe feel on an adorable little town square. The service was the one area that was lacking and why the 4 stars. The Good: The food was great. It was fresh and prepared very well. The avocado toast had tons of flavor, the bacon was perfectly cooked, the potatoes were crisp in the outside and soft on the inside, the sourdough toast was very good and the biscuit and the house made jam was on point. The Ehhh: We were seated immediately, which was great, but then we were forgotten. We sat there for about 15 minutes before anyone recognized that we had not been approached by a server. The place is pretty small inside and there was a ton of staff working so that should not have been the case. Once we were served, the server really didn't follow back up with us, even knowing that we were missed in the beginning. As someone who has done that job, that's definitely not the way to course correct. I will give them the benefit of the doubt that this is not the norm and see how the service is the next time we go. I would definitely recommend that you go and check them out.

Fried chicken sandwich (had it grilled tho)
Lavinia I.

Great food, great service, great ambiance. I look forward to another visit when I can try more of the delicious sounding items on the menu!

First time feels!
Natalie W.

Classy! Stylish. Pink walls! Just so unexpected for little ole downtown Flowery Branch, GA. And yet, EXACTLY what Flowery Branch needs! Breakfast with a dear friend was just as perfect as the meal. Waitress was patient yet attentive. Potatoes crispy. Avocado toast spicy and satisfying. We'll definitely be back!

Fried Chicken & Bourbon Waffle
Raul G.

Caroline's in downtown Flowery Branch is a gem that deserves all the love. I've been a few times now, and every single visit has been consistent, fresh, flavorful, and just impressive from start to finish. The location is right in the heart of downtown Flowery Branch, which has been growing fast and becoming a really cute, walkable area. Parking has never been a problem for me--though I typically visit during non-peak hours--but I can imagine it gets busier during prime brunch time. Still, it's worth the effort. The inside of Caroline's is honestly adorable. It has a charm and comfort that feels inviting right away. Great lighting, tasteful art, and very comfortable chairs (I appreciate that as a bigger guy). It feels thoughtful--like someone took their time designing a space that people would actually want to spend time in. Whether you're there with a significant other, family, or friends, it's just a great environment to enjoy a slow, delicious morning. Let's talk food. The menu is tight, and that's a great thing. It's clear they focus on a handful of items and knock them out of the park. Everything I've tried so far has been excellent. My wife can't get enough of their TK Sandwich: grilled sourdough, lettuce, tomato, Dunes mayo, white cheddar, bacon, egg, and she always adds avocado. It's balanced, fresh, and that grilled sourdough is crispy perfection. My first visit, I had their fried chicken & bourbon waffle with bacon jam, brown butter farm egg, maple syrup, and hot sauce foam (don't worry, it's flavorful--not spicy). I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best chicken and waffles I've had. The waffle is soft with just the right hint of sweetness, the chicken is tender and perfectly fried with a thin, crispy crust, and the bacon jam + syrup combo is just magic. Then came the sweet section. They serve a butter-fried banana bread topped with whipped cream, maple syrup, and fleur de sel. I'm a banana bread fan to begin with, but this is next level. It's the first time I've ever had it fried like this, and it was so good I had to stop myself from eating the whole thing before my meal. A must-try. On another visit, I tried their fried chicken sandwich--and let me tell you, it's the best chicken breakfast sandwich I've had in the area. Pimento cheese, bacon, Alabama white BBQ, and green tomato chow chow on a grilled brioche bun. It all came together perfectly. Now, the sides. The crispy potatoes are absolutely incredible. Golden, flavorful, soft inside with a perfect crisp outside--not too crunchy, just right. I forgot to order them the second time and got fries instead, and I was a little bummed... until I tasted the fries. Turns out, Caroline's also makes some of the best fries around. Flavorful, crispy, not greasy--just delicious. Caroline's has quickly become one of my favorite breakfast spots. Everything is made with care, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the food is consistently amazing. If you haven't been yet, I highly recommend stopping by, supporting local, and giving them a well-earned shoutout. I'll definitely be back (again and again).

Bourbon pecan waffle
Kelsi H.

Be prepared to wait! But it's worth it. We got there around 11 on a Saturday and it was about an hour wait. Luckily our group had a LOT to catch up on, so we didn't mind it. The food was good! We started with a bourbon pecan waffle for the table. Everyone got a few bites and it was so yummy. I ordered the fried chicken pimento sandwich for my meal. It was HUGE. And so good. The fries were okay, but could have used a little more salt in my opinion. Overall a great new addition to Flowery Branch. I can't wait to come back and try other items.

Berry Prosciutto sandwich (think monte cristo) Sweet and savory
Sandra P.

Came here on opening day because we live close by And we love Antebellum! We are so excited to have a brunch spot and it does not disappoint! The aesthetic is something right out of sex in the city vibes, pink walls, gold and white accents- it was too crowded to take pictures today but you'll have to trust me on this. Unfortunately today they were out of many menu items but it's understandable and our second choices were very good. We didn't have any adult beverages today but the menu looks fun! Our server was very attentive and helpful. There a few tables outside as an option on a nice day but parking is a little scarce. Be prepared to walk a block or two however its free to park downtown here.

Pork Special
Denise N.

A very charming and busy place. The food is amazing. The banana bread was warm and delightful with the extra fluffy side of cream and syrup. Perfect! The Berry and Prosciutto sandwich was such a lovely balance of sweet and savory. The best combination. Not to mention the salty vinegar fries. Even the Pork Belly sandwich special killed it! I'm so thrilled to have another amazing place to eat in the area. Friendly and warm interior. Do yourself a favor and go!

What a funky, fun spot! The patio was awesome. Our server (also the hostess, it seemed, although…read moreone other gal popped her head over to get confirmation on one of the sides we'd asked for) was beyond nice. She genuinely seemed happy to be there, and not just for tips - didn't get her name, but she had GORGEOUS purple hair. Food - YUM! Onion rings were the perfect size so that one bite didn't result in the whole onion slipping out of its fried blankie. Grilled shrimp - also the perfect size!! Not those tiny little grubby ones. Date's ribeye was perfectly cooked! He had fried okra as his side and I despise okra, but it was actually pretty tasty! We agreed that for a menu that sounded like "basic burger bar food" it was really great and worth repeat visits in the future.

It was kind of odd having the manager's office in the front of the restaurant and in view of customers. Tables had an odd texture to them. Like they were painted but remained sticky for some reason. Pretzel appetizer was good and toasted. I could have used more acid and leche de tigre in the ceviche. So it was just OK. Skip the country fried steak. The brown gravy is flat out gross. The steak is definitely frozen. The onion rings and the Mexican corn were the best part of the plate. Very likely will not be back.

Despite our unexpectedly late start to the day, there was a steady flow of customers the entire time we ate breakfast. Customers ranged from young families, single guest and friends gathering in small groups, everyone we saw ordered a variety of breakfasts. There are options for all types of morning eaters. Small portions to big meals. You are bound to find something to fit your mood. While the options are typical choices you find in many breakfast diner type businesses, the quality of the food and the freshness was evident. Nothing was "greasy" or flavorless nor was anything "slammed " together to get diners in and out quickly. Care was taken to provide a good breakfast with warm southern hospitality. I ordered the short stack (2) of the blueberry crunchcakes. They were two large blueberry pancakes topped with granola. They were not overly sweet nor did the granola conflict with the pancake experience. It was actually my second favorite pancake I've ever had. They were large enough I only ate half the order. I requested a side of bacon and it came with three strips, cooked nicely. Not too crispy and not too floppy. My husband ordered the Western Omelette which had ham, peppers, onions and cheese. He also chose the oven roasted potatoes and the English muffin. He was pleased to see there was not a ton of cheese inside as he has experienced elsewhere, so you could easily taste the various flavors of each ingredient. The portion was hearty so he too only ate half. The potatoes were perfectly golden and tasted like potatoes. Nothing was greasy nor overly salted so it felt like a hearty breakfast. If you are in town and want a yummy breakfast of some classic breakfast favorites, make it a point to eat at J. Christopher's. You will taste fresh ingredients, get good portions and won't break the bank. I wasn't a fan of the hot or iced coffee though, which always completes my morning. If you are in the mood for more than a pastry at breakfast, this place is one to try.

They also sent out a reminder text 30 mins before we were due at the restaurant and checked on us to make sure we were coming when we ran a little behind schedule. We were seated promptly and our server was Mickey. Mickey was helpful when we asked for suggestions on drinks, appetizers and entrees. I ordered their drink the Pom De Vie. My mocktail was delicious and fruity. My husband ordered the Manhattan. He enjoyed his drink as well. Bread was brought to the table and we really enjoyed the sauce to accompany the bread. The sauce was a mix of balsamic vinaigrette, garlic and tomatoes. For our appetizer we ordered their calamari and boy was it good. We are used to a dipping sauce being served with it but it did not need it. The breading that was used was perfect and light. We enjoyed the onions and peppers that were lightly fried with the calamari as well. The chili sauce that was drizzled onto the calamari was delicious. For our entrees my husband ordered a wedge salad (not pictured) and we shared and enjoyed that together. He ordered their 22 oz ribeye with Oscar style. He really liked his ribeye as did I. I tasted a piece and it melted in my mouth. For my entree I ordered their August special: Summer Barramundi. I have cooked Barramundi myself and it is a favorite. This is my first time trying Barramundi at a restaurant. It was cooked to perfect. It was served with fried okra and watermelon along with a pickled watermelon rind. The pickled watermelon rind was a cool and interesting way to put a twist on taking advantage of using the entire watermelon to eat. It was really good. For dessert, my husband and I ordered the crème brûlée (not pictured( and we really enjoyed that together as well. We enjoyed the service by Mickey. We enjoyed this establishment and their food.
