I travel a lot for work and get to experience some of this country's best spots. I've only been to one bakery as good as this, and that was Liberty Artisanal Bakery in Chatham, MA. You really feel like you are in a bakery, not just looking at a display case. You can smell the bread, there's a fresh rack of what just came out to your left. An army of people are kneading dough and prepping goods. You feel like you are walking into someone's workplace and it was bring-your-neighbor-to-work day. This was my 2nd visit of what will be hundreds to come, and I'm just floored by this business. What led me here was going to a coffee shop that carries their goods. I was annoyed by the line and thought, let's just go to the source. I fully expect any coffee shop in Atlanta that doesn't bake their own goods to carry Colette. On the top shelf are the sweets and on the bottom is the savory. On my first visit I had the sweet -- an apple pastry. Flaky, good, and perfect! Not too sweet. I'm not a fan of overly sweet pastries, which is why Revolution is my favorite donut shop. This time I went savory and had the French onion brioche. I couldn't decide, so I asked the cashier to choose for me. She pointed me to the French onion brioche because it was a unique special. I took it home and heated it in my oven. The caramelization of the onions was incredible and the flavors blended so well. My only suggestion to improve would be to have a warmer like Starbucks has to heat items before serving. Heat brings out the best in the pastries. Adding that touch for people who don't want to wait until they get home would be icing on the cake. Bottom line: this is the best bakery in Atlanta right now. If you have a chance to heat it up when you get home, do it. A true bakery that you have to visit. read more

Excellent pastries that change regularly with intentional thoughtful use of seasonal fruits and spices. Nothing is ever overly sweet but so much is very desirable. read more

Super small, local buisness. Really glad I passed by the food was definitely unique. I liked that the second you stepped into the bakery you could see and smell everything being made in-house. The cashier was very nice giving us time to order and great reccomendations. My only complaint is that I wish the food would have been heated up. Everything truly was amazing (with the exception of the cinnamon roll which was just OK) but having it be cold dimmed the experience for me. read more

I love this cute little bakery. Parking is easy on the street and lots surrounding (although paid). This is definitely a grab and go place. There are a few small tables outside, but they're usually full. I love that they have a good variety that changes very frequently. I got a fun bread pastry with an egg/ricotta/proscuitto. It was a great little breakfast before walking over to the Freedom Farmers Market! read more

Colette Bread & Bakeshop - Brioche with egg/ricotta/proscuitto - Bakeries Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

It's cute inside, grab and go style. I've heard great things about this place and have been wanting to try for a while. I got a donut, cinnamon roll, breakfast bun, and coffee cake. The breakfast bun was delicious!!!! It was the perfect blend of seasoning, egg, meat, bread. The coffee cake was dissapointing, I just felt like it was lacking flavor and could benefit from being a little smaller. The donut was one of the most light and airy donuts I've ever had. The cinnamon roll was just mid, nothing to write home about. I'd definitely come back and try some more things. read more

Colette Bread & Bakeshop - Bakeries Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Colette Bread & Bakeshop offers a tempting selection of (mostly) sweet and savory pastries. We ordered the savory brioche with egg, ricotta, proscuitto, and sprinkled with everything bagel topping. The bread was fluffy and it had great flavor. I wish it had been warmed up though. We also ordered the orange cardamon bun. It was tasty; however, I wish it had a bolder organge/cardamon flavor. Any who - looking forward to trying more of their options. There is no seating in doors, but we were able to enjoy our snacks outdoors on their mini-patio. read more

Cutest bread shop! Went in here at the end of the day so there weren't many options but I grabbed the banana and chocolate muffin and let me tell you...it was perfect!!! The flavors blended well and hit the spot. The music playing inside was awesome and so was the cashier who gave us a little treat for being first time visitors. I'm glad we stumbled upon this place. I'll visit again most definitely read more

Amazing bread and pastries. Well done, high quality, artisanal. Service is always friendly and helpful. Parking is a bit of a challenge, but it's not a stay and eat kind of place anyway, you grab and go. Get your stuff early, go home and enjoy it there. And you will enjoy whatever you get. The place is cute and decorated in a way that is welcoming. read more

Colette is hands-down the best neighborhood bakery in Atlanta. Sarah, the owner, baker, and pastry chef, has poured so much heart, talent, and hard work into creating something truly special -- you can taste her passion and love for the craft in every bite. The hardworking staff is consistently kind, welcoming, delightfully quirky, and genuinely happy to see you walk through the door. The sourdough bread is incredible, the artisan pastries and seasonal galettes are both beautiful and delicious, and the Focaccia BLT may honestly be one of the best lunch sandwiches in Atlanta. It's the perfect cozy walk-up spot for coffee, treats, and nourishing, thoughtfully made bread. read more

Great local bakery that I can't imagine getting any better is now open. This morning I arrived to a small line of three to four people ahead of me. When I placed my order for a blueberry scone and brioche tart and sourdough ( I was only planning on purchasing the sourdough) I found out that I purchased the last loaf. The person behind me asked for a loaf of sourdough and was told they were serving brioche and it was on rotation. The sourdough was perfection. Just out of the oven fresh. The brioche tart barely made it home. It was very good as was the scone. I'm trying to save the blueberry scone for tea. I'm happy the owner, Sarah has found a place to make her own. I'm looking forward to seeing what she's has in store for the future. It seems I got there just in time this morning. When I left there was a small line of about eight. There are a few barstools outside for seating. Parking is limited so prepare for that'. UPDATE: Yes, an update an entire day after my first visit. Yesterday, I devoured the brioche tart so today when I went in for coffee I was on the lookout for that and the blueberry scone. Also, the nicest ladies working the counter let me know the brioche tart would be available in about an hour. They had just sold out of the tarts a moment ago. Now, the update the sourdough is CHEF'S KISS. Though I have been purchasing sourdough elsewhere it was nothing like this. The sourdough was damn good. Run don't walk. I also got a chance to get a latte today from the pop-up Mezcal.Atl. I ordered The Standard which has vanilla and cardamom. It was quite good. Subtle flavor. He is only there one more day. read more

Cute little bakery in poncey highlands. They have limited parking right near here, so keep that in mind. There are some other parking options close by so plan ahead! Everything is baked fresh and you can't go wrong with anything. I got the cinnamon roll and was super impressed! It was so soft and the frosting was the perfect amount of sweet. read more

Amazing!! Love their sourdough and their sausage and cheddar turnover. Everyone is always super friendly. Get there early for the biggest selection especially on weekends. read more

The baked goods were so delicious. The service was kind despite being busy. They don't warm the baked goods because it is industrial kitchen but the baked goods taste good either way. You can enjoy your treats outside on the seating provided. read more

Stopped by after coffee for morning snacks. Walked right in. Small bakery with somone upfront to help immediately. Didn't stay to eat, took pastries home. Savory carrot pastry was delicious. The blueberry frangipane pastry was overcooked, dry, and couldn't taste the frangipane. I'd go back to try more options. read more

If you're curious how good this place is, I can tell you I drive 40 miles for their sourdough and focaccia bread and it's worth it every time. My family uses their bread to make sandwiches at home and it lasts 1-2 days before it's gone. read more

I am always on the hunt for a European-style bakery in the city, and Colette is my current obsession. If you are looking for an absolutely decadent, mouthwatering, perfectly seasoned and tender focaccia, look no further. I'm not even the biggest focaccia fan, but this spot has me clamoring for it. Simply outstanding, I can't wait to try more of their divine creations. read more

The bread I bought was fantastic. I need to come back when it's nicer weather so I can sit on their porch. Would love for them to expand their beverage offerings - I would have killed for an iced coffee! read more

I LOVE this little bakery. Come early to get the good stuff, the focaccia here is amazing and so is the bread. I've gotten the sourdough and olive sourdough and it is *chefs kiss*, especially when it's right out of the oven. I'm not sure how they get the bread texture so chewy and springy. Their baked goods are good too and always on rotation, I've liked everything I tried. There's a teeny parking area but it's always been available when I come. The people are lovely, and there's a little tiny outside seating area. read more

We stayed in an airbnb that happened to be right around the corner from Colette, which was very fortunate for me. The pastries are varied and excellent, coffee was, as well. Super friendly people working here, it was a very nice find. I can see why they sell out quickly every day! read more

The bagels! The focaccia! Service is excellent. Never a long wait. Location is very convenient as well.

This bakery is absolutely amazing. Everything they make is so fresh! I did the sourdough workshop and learned a lot. I come here multiple times a week. I love the different types of pastries and that they all aren't laced with sugar. I never get bored of their selection. The foccacia is amazing. Sometimes when I go at 8am, they do not have any yet. That is my only constructive criticism is to make the foccacia available in the morning! The cinnamon roll is to die for and has a kind of sour icing. Wow! read more

Delicious but overpriced very pricey . Try the Collette specials . Delicious . I would love to order daily but it's like going to Whole Foods . Your whole paycheck would be gone by end of month read more

I love coming here but lately the product has been extremely inconsistent. Today I got a Nutella bun that was extremely small to what the usual size I have received in the past. I love the bread and the sour dough is often amazing but has also been inconsistent in the past couple of weeks. Also while in line I over heard a customer in the store (she was masked) was there with covid! Yikes, not necessarily the bakeries fault but I did feel very uncomfortable over hearing that. I will definitely be back and hope that maybe it was just an off day! Cinnamon rolls were excellent today too. read more

Wow this was awesome. We were actually driving by to a different bakery when we saw a line out the door and decided to try it out. I'm so glad we did--this place is so cute and had incredible baked goods. I got the strawberry galette and banana chocolate chip muffin. My bf got a brownie, lemon pound cake, chocolate chip cookie, honey biscuit and the banana chocolate chip cookie (major sweet tooth guy). The strawberry galette was insanely good!!! Everything else is delicious too. I also love how you can watch them baking behind the counter while you're waiting in line. Keep in mind that there's no indoor seating so it's best as a grab and go place but that's what I like about it. So glad we found this place! read more

LOVE Colette. So excited to have this bakery in the neighborhood! Everyone in the store is very friendly and the pastries and bread are to die for. The shop is also very cute and small - it feels nice and cozy. I took a sourdough class here as well, which was amazing. Would recommend for beginner or advanced bakers!

Fantastic local bakery with delicious pastries and fresh bread. Friendly and welcoming environment with a cheerful staff. There is limited space inside so plan on enjoying your fresh pastry at one of the barstools outside. It can get a little busy on weekends so I recommend getting there early if there is a specific item you want to try. They don't offer coffee (yet), but often have pop-ups from local coffee shops on the weekends (East Pole is just down the block as well). My personal favorites are the everything bagels and cinnamon rolls. read more

Very friendly staff. Got a savory scone but unfortunately the dough was still raw and it was quite dry. Have had much better elsewhere. Will maybe give it another try but not in a rush. Seems like the breads might be more their forte. read more

Run dont walk!!! Best ever. So kind and passionate about their baking. Took a sourdough class and absolutely loved it.

Amazing quiche, to die-for Nutella pastry, and a lovely scone too. Coffee was amazing yummy complement to our breakfast.

I'm a vegan and I'll make an exception for this place. Insanely delicious, lovely staff, nice no-nonsense atmosphere. They focus on the product and it shows. read more

I don't really get the hype around this place - not as good as Alon's, for just as much money
