    Love this place! Inviting, open space. The baristas are friendly, talented and efficient. The neighbors will welcome you and strike up a conversation while you wait. The baked goods looked delicious. I enjoyed my iced lavender lush latte from the spring menu and especially the conversation with the two neighbors who identified me as a visitor and wanted to be sure I knew they were glad to see me

    I came here for breakfast. It is really cute. There is a grocery store in front and a cafe in the back . I was shocked at the affordability. The cafe is awesome! The menu has a lot of food and coffee options, including specialty drinks. I ordered a turkey sausage, egg, and cheese croissant. It was delicious and only $6. The cafe also has pastries and other refreshments. Britley was really nice and offered great service. There is ample space to work as well. I will definitely be back.

    My iced latte hit the spot! This location offers a nice variety of coffee & latte - such a Lavender flavored. The server was helpful in providing details when asked about the method, also there is plenty of seating for sipping and chatting with a group of friends. They also offer breakfast & lunch sandwiches. Grab a seat near the window for great light and people watch.

    Very affordable and comfortable space to WFH or meet up with friends. Has some good vegan options. Service is quick and everyone is friendly.

    The perfect place to work from home! I wasn't in the biggest mood for coffee today, so can't comment on that, but the other patrons were speaking of how great the coffee and pastries were I opened got a blueberry jasmine kombucha and it was very tasty! Power was a bit difficult to find, bur seating was ample and bright, which was a plus for me! I can see myself coming to this place often! Parking was great in the back! Prices were reasonable (cup of Joe for less than $3) Customer service was great as well!

    The community grounds Café is an asset to their community friendly environment, free Internet service, free parking , clean tables very clean bathrooms and everyone that goes there is very friendly as if they are your neighbor! The food there is very healthy and prepared in a clean environment. Their coffees and tea are very good selection. I highly recommend.

    I decided to support a local business instead of Starbucks as I was in dire need of caffeine. I've known of Community Grounds but have never been, so decided to give it a shot. It's attached to the Carvers Food Market near Chosewood Park. Besides coffee, they also offer breakfast and lunch items, plus the typical pastries. I ordered an iced medium sugar free vanilla latte with oat milk. To my surprise, I was shocked when my total only cost $5 and some change. They will give you a ticket with your order number and you wait for your number to be called. There were a few orders ahead of me, but only waited around 5 mins until I got mine. My latte was pretty good and the jolt of caffeine I needed. The drink was a little too sweet for my liking, so I think I'll ask for just 1 pump of syrup next time (I'm assuming they did 2-3 pumps for a medium sized drink). There are tons of parking available too, which always helps!

    #LakewoodLatte is my favorite drink right now YUM!

    It's a whole vibe. Only place in this community where you can get fresh veggies and produce, coffee, pastries, and great conversation. Love the staff AND the eats. We need more like this!!!

    Folks here were very attentive to us as we sat down outside one of the guys brought out an umbrella to give us a little shade against the sun. We ordered a couple of paninis and I had coffee and then we all really chowed down. Community grounds had hanging art for sale and free WiFi. Due to C19 there were no seats available inside. The location is at the start of the historic southern Atlanta trail. Can't wait to drive down that another day.

    I think this is my greatest food find since moving to this side of town. There is no Starbucks near (we all know how scarce they get in black neighbors) and guess what it hasn't effected me at all. #1 I love the staff. They are so personable and eclectic. Just real folks serving their community. It truly is a beautiful thing. Now just best service is first please don't get confused the tasty available on the menu. The pastries are flaky buttery goodness that everyone should have in their life. The quality of the ingredients in the food is above average and the coffee and specialty drinks are top notch.

    Very friend staff, tasty drinks! Setting: this Grocer+Coffeeshop combo is pocketed in the Urban-Suburban area of South Atlanta. The place is eccentrically decorate and provides a hip-modern feel. Food: I had an overloaded caramel frappe. Very rich and very sweet. Service: very friendly staff. I spoke with one of the clerks about their engagement with local artists in Atlanta, and I'm excited to see what they have in store. Cost: reasonably priced food and drinks!

I had to change plans last minute for a loved one's…read morebirthday celebration, and when I called two days before I needed a reservation, the staff was so kind and accommodating! We had to make a decision quickly when we were pivoting, and when we came across the great reviews and photos of the food. we didn't think twice about checking to see if we could make it happen. When we arrived, the staff was already preparing our table, so we only had to wait a few minutes before being seated. The space is pretty tight, and you're going to be close to the tables near you, but we were able to sit comfortably. Our server came over quickly to take our drink orders, and afterward she came back to answer any questions. Most of the food was ready at the same time. We appreciated that it came out as it was ready and wasn't left sitting. And everyone enjoyed the food! The only "complaint" one of my friends had was that she thought there was a little too much sauce in her shrimp and grits dish. She felt that the sauce, while it tasted great, overpowered the dish and she would've liked to taste more of the grits flavor. All in all, I'd say we'll likely be back to try something else on the menu.

That said, the aesthetic feels less Buckingham Palace and more whimsical London antique shop -- charming & eclectic. I ordered the blueberry lavender matcha and a breakfast plate. The menu names were definitely on brand, but not quite catchy enough for me to remember them later. Both were solid, though, and hit the spot. Service was a highlight. The cashier really leaned into the accent and took the time to thoroughly explain the menu, which made the whole experience feel more immersive and welcoming. Parking was easy on an early weekday afternoon -- always a win. The space works well for small parties, but be prepared: tables are small and seating is close together. One tip: avoid sitting upstairs in Eden. It's noticeably warmer than the rest of the restaurant, and you'll likely leave smelling like breakfast. Overall, a fun, themed spot with great service. But I don't think I'll be back.

Typically I research and take a peek at the menu, photos, etc. but I didn't this time. Peters Street has ample street parking and a few lots for a fee. Just check the signs before you leave your car. The entry is unassuming because there's so many little places on this street but once you enter you're in another time! The medieval theme is super cool - a Barron greeted us at the door. Seating is casual - find a spot to sit and then order from the digital menu at the door. Orders are taken at the counter but entrees and drinks are brought to your table. The owner Josh was extremely accommodating! He gave us some tastings of coffee, tea and the French toast. 10/10! I personally ordered the Blueberry Matcha and a Bowl (done keto). Everyone's meal looked amazing and not a crumb was left. We left with some of the canned whiskey drinks - Strawberry Whiskey Sour and Kentucky Mule made with bourbon. Josh said best enjoyed mixed together! The photo opps, food, drinks and aesthetics are so good here. Only comment is that the tables are pub or cafe style and best for small groups or just takeover a section like we did. Enjoy!

We made reservations for the 6 of us, and upon arrival we were greeted by the friendly staff. There was a line of people waiting to be seated, so we were concerned about having to wait since we were heading to the airport. We had a brief waiting period before being seated. Jasmine D, our server was prompt and very personable. The menu was full of delectable choices for brunch or lunch. We ordered the Very Berry French Toast, Chix & Pancakes & bacon, Jerk Chicken & Sweet Potato Waffles, and a Kids Cheese Scramble & bacon and grits. Everything was absolutely delicious! Our server was attentive and patient with us the entire time we were there. If you're looking for great food, a great welcoming down home ambiance and are in the area, The Breakfast Boys is a great place to go, but make reservations! We can not wait to visit the Atlanta area again and to visit The Breakfast Boys.
