The viral Gong Gan Atlanta just opened, in soft opening.
New Korean viral cafe outside Atlanta, from LA to ATL.
Seems like we have been waiting years for this location to open. Basically, in the same shopping center as two other famous local cafes.
There is going to be some tough competition here. But, this is a totally new vibe that you haven't seen before in Georgia.
Yes, they are open to the public.
The space is large, modern, and open with gorgeously branded design and furniture.
What makes this location special?
The modern approach. A twist of old and new on the menu, atmosphere, and down to the branding. Old Korean flavors like injeolmi, Korean melon, and mugwort, mixed with flavors like Norwegian brown cheese and cottagecore mushroom themed cheesecake.
Should you try it?
Yes, because everyone has a different view point and preference. I hope you can try all the local businesses before naming a favorite.
I purchased from the limited soft opening menu:
1. Corn Latte - Not too sweet, but also not as much corn flavor as I'm used to at other local cafes. I don't know it it always has this, but it included a complimentary piece of candied croffle on top that is perfect for dipping in the coffee foam.
2. Machest - Classic matcha latte with oat milk. Not too sweet and tastes like what I make at home.
3. Brown Cheese Croffle - This is one of the best quality croffles that I've had in Georgia. Large croffle, generously covered with Norwegian brown cheese, and a large portion of syrup on the side for drizzling. Scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
Overall, I will definitely return to try more than once. This was just my initial review at soft opening. read more
