The Spindle is a bike shop on one side and a cute little coffee shop/cafe on the other side. The…read more"other side" is referred to as Spindle Kitchen. My partner and I checked them out one Saturday afternoon and we were definitely impressed. The location is in Old Fourth Ward on Auburn Ave, near Krog Market. There is a collection of studios, businesses, etc. called Studioplex, this is where Spindle Kitchen lives. You will enter through the bike shop, question why you don't ride your bike more, and then walk through to the cafe. Spindle Kitchen serves breakfast from 9-11 and lunch from 11-4. During this time, they have their own menu of available items, but they also host pop up dinners throughout the week and pop up brunches on Sunday. You can check their Instagram or website to see what it coming up. We decided to start with their menu to feel out what they are all about. Everything on their menu was vegan or vegetarian and they use locally sourced, organic ingredients when possible. I ordered the Rose Beet latte which was made with cashew milk. It was delicious. For my meal, I went with the Radish Toast. It was amazing. It had a walnut ricotta base and was piled with thinly sliced raw radishes and spring onions. So fresh and tasty. My partner went with a curry style soup. She is still talking about how great it was. It was served with Naan on the side. I will definitely be back to try the breakfast options!

We peered through the window and Ezz, the owner, actually opened up long enough to have a chat with us. I thought that was pretty cool. My next visit I was a bit more confused, shop in the front, cafe in the back. BUT, since then I have stopped by regularly as I get my haircut right around the corner. Got to say, Ezz is incredibly welcoming, accommodating, knowledgable and skilled. He runs a cool, unique little place with great food, personal service, and quality products, built to order if desired!

All the sewing kits in the area were sold out but I popped in here and Gregory was a Saint.

He is truly the epitome of southern hospitality and his shop is amazing. 100% recommendation.

I had been looking for a nice leather handbag for awhile. I couldn't find anything that I really…read morewanted in the price range that I was willing to pay. I remembered someone telling me about Brahmin bags. I decided to search online. I immediately fell in love with a bag I saw. It was listed on other retailers but I wanted to know if it was in the store so I could see it in person. The reviews were great for the bag so I would have purchased sight unseen anyway. I called the store and spoke with Deja (pronounced Day-jah). She was extremely helpful. She gave me some info about the bag I wanted. However, they did not have it in stock. She offered to order it for me. OMG! REALLY!!!! She walked me through the process and was so professional and engaging. She won me over. She let me know that the bag would be sent to me, when I would receive and how to get additional info on the purchase if I needed it. She won me over with her great customer service. They have earned a customer for life. Next time, I will actually go in the store and meet her face to face and tell her.

So I had gone to Joe's for years. I took a break, but I came back. He's just as good as he was…read moreyears ago. He gets things done in a timely fashion. And he'll make sure to communicate with you along the way. I needed a suit cut for an event, to and he got me together. Figuring out his hours were a little bit tricky, but the number that he has listed online, you can call him at any time. So at least he's very open to communication in regards to that. I first got there and he fitted me for the suit and he was good to go. He told me when to come back, and I came back around that time, days later. When I got there, the suit fit perfectly. He didn't need to make any other changes or alterations and it really show the quality of his work. Also he works really late so if you can't get to him in the morning or afternoon, it's most likely is going to be easier for you because he'll work in the evening time. So he's very convenient when it comes to that as well. Again I have been going to him for about 5 years or so off and on, he has not led me astray yet! Also to note, he has his own clothing line so he can actually suggest things from his personal line or he can custom make you something as well. So that's definitely something to keep in your pocket because you may not find what you want but he might be able to make it for you.

I've past by this tucked away little kid's shoe store so many times and never stopped. I suddenly remembered it and realised it would be worth checking. I'm super glad I did as they were so helpful and the experience reminded me of why shopping locally is often a better idea. My son is small for size and hasn't yet learned to tie his shoes but also didn't want Velcro. We tried to find the "bungee" type laces but it didn't work out in his size. The two staff members gave us so much more attention than we had at athlete's foot and made the experience more enjoyable for everyone. They even sat with my son and helped with trying to learn to tie his shoes when we couldn't find a better non-laces alternative. Price wise this store was not cheap, but comparable to the corporate stores minus the occasional sale pricing that I see that probably comes more with scale. I liked that they had a climbing tree in the center for play and actually trying the shoes in an effective use case scenario. The store is small, but friendly, and helpful, and I would check here again the next time I need shoes for my kids.
