    Veggie hash with two over medium eggs and breakfast sausage added.
    Amy M.

    Service was great! Atmosphere is quiet and peaceful. Very cafe-ish! They have great background music (oldies). Food is awesome! Like you are going to your friend's house or grandma's for brunch! Homemade jams for your toast or biscuit. Pretty sure those are seasonal. Their bread is definitely homemade. I had the wheat bread. When in Marietta near the big chicken, PLEASE try this place out! What a gem!

    Smoked Turkey Hash
    Shani B.

    I remember when this place first opened. Today was my first time visiting in many years and it is nice to see this small business maintaining the integrity of its purpose. I was greeted by a warm server who was happy to invite me to a table in the dining room. She served me fresh hot coffee with lots of milk as I requested. Throughout my dining experience, she kept my coffee topped off! The Smoked Turkey Hash was delicious. At first glance, the portion looked small, however, I was unable to even complete the meal. It was very filling. The dish was served hot and my eggs were cooked as I requested. The dinning room and bathroom was clean and fresh. Overall, it was very nice to return to this restaurant after a few years and experience this breakfast spot. They are still serving good food, fresh smoked meats with good service.

    Still thinking about the Fried Chicken Biscuit with Hot Honey Garlic Sauce from Crooked Tree Café in Marietta, GA. Buttery biscuit, tender chicken, and that hot honey flavor? Crazy good. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area! #rolieats #goodeats #foodie #atleats #mariettaeats #southernfood #biscuitlove #supportlocal

    Brisket Sandwich
    Najah H.

    This has been a local Cobb County favorite of mine for years. Took my son for breakfast but he decided to have lunch. When we walked in it reminds you of a country kitchen, comfort food trope of place. It's not a big place but there's plenty seating inside and a few tables on the front patio. I ordered pancakes with chicken sausage and my son got the brisket sandwich with macaroni & cheese. The orders come out fast and service is in point. My son's sandwich was gone in minutes. He wasn't a fan of the mac - it was more like noodles with cheese sauce versus baked mac 'n cheese. My breakfast was yummy and super fresh, fluffy pancakes and what tasted like housemade sausage. If you're a pancake, French toast or country breakfast lover (eggs, meat, grits, toast or biscuits with gravy) add this place to your list. They keep early hours so remember that.

    Chicken Apple Hash and Denver Omelette!! So good!! Chicken apple Hash is different but good!!

    The food was amazing!! Very chill country cafe inside feel!! Staff were friendly and attentive!!

    Sweet potato pancakes, what? Fluffy, flavorful and all around delish!
    Chris C.

    This is BY FAR the BEST biscuits and gravy I've ever had and I didn't even know sweet potato pancakes existed, but oh so YUM! Everything was expertly prepared and supremely delish! Service was fast and friendly. Prices were reasonable for large portions. All in all, this is now my favorite breakfast spot...I cannot wait to go back!

    "Over medium" eggs on breakfast platter.

    Cute interior with comfortable seating. Good menu selection with mediocre pricing. Unfortunately food was very MEH and service was a bit surely. The specialty apple and pineapple jellies were the highlight. The biscuit was good but a bit dry. My "over medium" egg was a bit less than over easy. The hot chocolate was clearly instant. Probably will not return.

    Brisket grilled cheese - substituted chicken (they were out of brisket) and hold the pimento cheese. With a side of green beans.

    Exterior Located on Cobb Pkwy right across from Ferguson Plumbing Supply. Interior Small and kinda dark but not unwelcoming. Several small tables and a few booths. Customer Service My waitress and the two other staff members were very friendly and accommodating. I specifically dropped in to try the brisket grilled cheese and when I found out that they were out of brisket, I was gonna head some place else, told them that I would check back another day - but they went ABOVE and beyond to try to find a sandwich and a side that I might like. There was a group of 5 - 6 construction worker dudes leaving just as I arrived. It was about 50 minutes before closing time and there were only 3 other customers - an elderly lady dining alone and a youngish looking couple dining in a booth, so I think I arrived after the lunch rush was over. Because of the small dining room, I chose a spot that was an equal distance from both of them. While I was dining - the male half of the couple took a large swig of his soft drink, then threw his head back and let out a HUGE loud belch. His female companion laughed as though it was the most charming thing she'd ever witnessed and I guess he felt so pleased by her response, that he chugged some more soda and treated us all to another longer, louder burp. They looked like college students and the waitress had mentioned to me earlier that she was a KSU student, so I genuinely hope these were not her friends. She saw and heard the guy (EVERYONE turned to look at him when he did it - both times) but she didn't say or do anything to reprimand him. No stars deducted for this. Price / Value Priced about like all restaurants nowadays. Lol. Food My green beans were cooked to the perfect consistency. Snappy but tender. My grilled cheese with chicken was tasty. Overall I would come back, but I would definitely call first to check availability and I would get takeaway instead of dining in.

    Chocolate Chip pancakes
    Lisa W.

    What a great way to start my day! Headed into Crooked Tree where Daniel served our part of 4 with a few good recommendations. It was a groovy and eclectic vibe with nostalgic memorabilia donned on the walls. The music was nice and the homey atmosphere welcoming. The food was delish like some had been in that kitchen working hard. We all enjoyed our meals from start to finish. My favorite dish was the fluffy pancakes, with chocolate chips. So delicious! I don't think I ate again until we'll in the evening. Filling good service and a Groovy atmosphere. What's more to love!

    Food today was horrible. Unsure if they changed cooks or not. The food was CROOKED. I'm heading to Waffle House near the big chicken I eat the biscuit and tried to eat the small part of the bacon the was actually done. This was CERTAINLY NOT ABOUT MONEY, but not to have any discount offered.

    Tonya -- you rock. Stop for the food, stay for the bbq sauce / syrup / jams. ----- locally sourced mixed with chef owned and made. Breakfast caught my eye during lunch time. Did the brisket hash. Not the best brisket I've ever had by a long shot. But. It lead me to the most Georgia BBQ I've had since I've moved here. First. The hash. Red potatoes, quartered and seared. Green pepper and onions need larger knife cuts to show up. Egg test. Soft scrambled. Passed. :) Over easy: Passed. :)~ BBQ sauce - sweet plus vinegar in perfect harmony. I declare this the taste of Georgia. No where else have I tasted a bbq sauce quite like this. Toasted banana pancake was good but stood up and made itself known with the addition of the pancake syrup. The syrup and jams are crafted in house. This place is clean, upbeat (house of blues music), and is staffed by the kindest people. They are super busy on the weekends. If you want a calm quiet experience, check them out during the week. Small improvement note: smell. Think a cleaning product was strong today. Hit me when I walked in. I'd rather a place be too clean than not clean enough. Just wish the food was the fist thing. Brussel sprouts - more steamed than seared. Tots. Just tots. Will be back.

    Been there many times and love it.. Looking for a good place on a Sunday for my moms 96th Birthday. Good for large group on a Sunday?

    Possibly if you get there before the "after church crowd". Call the manager/owner and check. I think they could pull some tables together. Accolades to you for doing this for your mom!

    To whom it may heavily concern,…read more On June 12, 2026, I Mr. Jorael White " African- American Male" entered the establishment of Williamson Bros Bar-B-Q located in Marietta, Georgia at 1425 Roswell Rd as a paying customer to place a take-out order. Upon entering the establishment, the restaurant was not overcrowded, and weather conditions outside were extremely hot, approximately 89 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit. After waiting for the customer ahead of me to be served, I placed a take-out order consisting of one brisket sandwich and one order of hush puppies. Following completion of my order, I observed available seating located directly adjacent to the designated take-out area near the restaurant bar. Before occupying the seating, I asked the front counter Attendant, who processed my order, whether the seating area was available for me to use while waiting for my order. He expressly informed me that the seating was available and I could wait there. I then approached the seating area where one elderly male patron was seated. I politely greeted him and asked whether surrounding seats were occupied by anyone else. He informed me that the seats were available. Shortly after sitting down, I was approached by a female employee, "Caucasian", approximately middle-aged, who asked whether I intended to order alcoholic beverages. I respectfully declined and informed her that I had recently placed a take-out order with the front counter associate and step aside to wait for my food. I further stated that I would not be consuming alcohol because I needed to drive home safely, but I would accept a glass of water. Immediately after hearing my response, the employee informed me "if you're not ordering an alcoholic beverage, you can't sit at the bar" I reiterated that I was already a paying customer waiting on an active order. Despite this explanation, I was again informed that unless I purchased an alcoholic beverage, I could not sit there. I then stood up, collected my belongings, and relocated myself to wait for my items. This interaction caused me to feel very uncomfortable, unwelcome, and singled out as a paying customer. I was left with highs concerns that I may have been treated very indifferent from those of my peers and other patrons present in the establishment. I am documenting this event because I believe the circumstances warrant review regarding whether unequal treatment or slight discriminatory conduct occurred.
