I came across Gut Busters while I was out and about but the crowd alone told me everything I needed to know. This place was jam packed. Wall to wall! I ordered the French toast breakfast with cheese grits, cheese eggs, and beef sausage... plus a drink and when I say everything was good? I mean EVERYTHING. I don't had any complaints. I can't lie I was a little skeptical off the presentation but the food was amazing. The cheese grits were seasoned, the eggs were seasoned, the sausage was cooked perfectly, and the French toast was done right. Even the drink was good. And breakfast be simple, so if you mess it up?? But this?? They did exactly what needed to be done 10/10 I'd definitely come back. read more

Gutbusters Breakfast - Candler Rd - American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

First time Uber Eats order. Arrived early. Packed. And well secured. Friendly driver followed delivery directions. I ordered the pancakes and a breakfast bowl. Amazing! The pancakes are light and fluffy so tasty. Bacon fried to perfection. Not well done just real good. The breakfast bowl was generous and the sausage was also good. The croissant was soft fresh and tasty as well. I will definitely order again. Highly recommend read more

Great breakfast. Not a lot of options for seating, so plan on taking it to-go. They were fast and had a variety of options but we did notice people who came in / ordered after us were getting their food before us. Overall it's pretty good. read more

Hello, I really like Gutbusters but each time I order the BLT the lettuce is old and bad. I let the first sandwich go by thinking it was a mistake. Now I see that it's not. Please don't hide this bad lettuce in the sandwich, it's not good or healthy. The sandwich I bought today had two (2) problems. The lettuce and the bacon was not cooked thoroughly, more raw fat than cooked bacon. Very disappointed read more

This was the MOST DISAPPOINTING & DISGUSTING food I've ever had in my life! Is this actual salmon or cat food? Did yall even use salmon or just all bread crumbs?? You can taste the old oil use to cook the salmon patties & the eggs?! No salt no pepper, with hardly any cheese that I paid extra for at that! How is this even a restaurant?! Pitiful! read more

Gutbusters Breakfast - Candler Rd - American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

A good breakfast for cheap. The food was just okay but, the portions are large. I got the grits on the side and that was more than two portions. It didn't have much taste even with the cheese. The salmon cakes were disappointing, lacked seasoning. If you're looking for a filling warm breakfast, give it a try. I may go back and try other items on the menus. The service was quick. There was a line when I arrive and I placed my order under 5minutes. Barely any seating. There's two benches and maybe 2 high tables. It's pretty much a take out spot. read more

I am not sure why I am just discovering Gutbusters, but I am so glad that I did! I have been to the one near my job over off Camp Creek and I have been to this one on Candler Road. Not only is everything quick, but it is fresh and extremely delicious. I got a croissant with extra cheese and eggs, and it was nice and buttery and perfect. It melted right in my mouth. The eggs were fresh, the cheese was perfect and I didn't need to add salt and pepper. I got the shrimp and grits with extra sauce and no shrimp. The sauce that goes on top of the grits (by the way, you can get cheese grits or regular, I opted for cheese) and this is the best I've ever had and for a fraction of the price. The sauce also has beef sausage in it for the flavor but I picked them out this time. Will definitely eat them next time! The line is organized. I ordered mine through clover and it was ready when I pulled up 8 minutes later without issue. The line moves quick and the food is fresh and HOT. This may be my new breakfast go-to! read more

This cozy spot may be small, but the service is warm and welcoming, and the food hits the mark. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served with genuine care. Perfect for a laid-back, satisfying breakfast--definitely worth a visit read more

An 81 Health Score provides a sketchy welcome, but isn't actually wholly unsurprising in this day and age. Additionally, none of the violations were of the "bugs and rodents present" variety, which is an IMMEDIATE "Hell NO" and I've already eaten there plenty, so on we roll. The customer service is usually pleasant, gracious and efficient (Unlike their location across town). I've NEVER had any complaints about my food and the bang for the buck is pretty good (I can almost always make 1 order into 2 separate meals). Party on Gutbusters!! read more

Food was tasty fast and I would definitely come again in the future probably the best breakfast I've ever had. I got the bacon egg and cheese with a side of potatoes. read more

Best breakfast and a great price I order mine online and pick it up on my way to work they are so good and wont break your pockets

I been here countless times. I first discovered this place years ago visiting my mom at Eastwick Apts. I haven't been in awhile. They cut breakfast at 12:00 I believe and serve lunch for the rest of the day. I found out about the flat shoals location years ago breakfast all day. Breakfast for a good price delicious quality food. Cheese grits with cheese eggs and chicken sausage with a extra link and a biscuit with grape jelly. Iykyk read more

1st time every trying. I got salmon, grits and eggs. The salmon did not look or taste good at all and it was burnt. Eggs and grits were ok but if I ever go again I would just stick to bacon,eggs and grits. Also prices are good but I would try a different location next time read more

Me and a high school buddy(class of 82 from Chicago Vocational) needed a meetup spot on Candler Road. He lives in Conyers and I in Mableton so half way point Decatur. In my former life, I sold Gutbuster's food & beverages in the early 2000's. They threw down then and haven't missed a beat since. My buddy had the shrimp & grits, and me ALL the available proteins with a side of cheese grits. We enjoyed it ALL! To top it off, packed house even at 1pm, he needed change for $100 bill and with a smile she took care of him. We ate there. Clean place as well, especially with the number of patrons on sight. read more

Don't judge a book by its cover! Gutbusters (Candler Road) is a real gem for GOOD, AFFORDABLE food - especially their breakfast! We had multiple breakfast combos - Fish combo, Salmon cakes combo - and everything was hot (temp) and good! flavor. Grits were like I remember from mom's home cooking. Why even cook with a place like this right around the corner!? read more

I happened to see this place on the way to get a window replaced in my car at 9 o'clock on Sunday morning and turned around and figured I would give it a try since I was a little early for my appointment. They did not disappoint! I just moved to Atlanta from a small town and I've been looking for a place where you can get a good homemade breakfast biscuit and this place was it!! price were very reasonable. The portions were great. The service was smiles across-the-board. I definitely recommend this place for anybody who's looking for a good homemade breakfast. read more

That's a lot of food for $7! This was not my first visit, I like this place, especially when I'm looking for a hardy breakfast. My son was a different story...he is not a fan at all. He dont like potatoes with all of the veggies and that's what I ordered him. The place could definitely use some updating, somewhat of a hole in the wall type of place. Pretty good breakfast food and the prices you can not beat. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

I ordered the shrimp basket, I was disappointed in the portion size for the price. The shrimp were small and the tartar sauce and ketchup came in packs. The flavor of the shrimp was underwhelming. Would not recommend this menu item. read more

If you're big hungry, you want to go here. Even when you order delivery from ubereats, the portions are massive and the prices cannot be beat. You can walk out of here with a giant meal and drink for less than $10 even now in 2023 with all the inflation. The food is so good. I just ate it and I'm already looking forward to next time. read more

Amazing fresh food, service is quick and the ambiance is casual. Parking is limited front and back. This place stays busy. Glad they are open later. They have been renovated inside. They have a menu to order from the back or they do have a buffet style that they serve in the front. Pancakes are big and shrimp and grits are fye. read more

Gutbusters Breakfast - Candler Rd - American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Best cheap breakfast you can get. I'm from New Orleans so I'm accustomed to good corner-store/gas station food. This place delivers that. I wouldn't say this place is as good as what I get in New Orleans but it's definitely the best I've had out here. Do not expect restaurant presentation because you will not get it, but what you will get is a solid and filling breakfast. The outside needs some freshening up but the inside is not the worst. Also if you can handle some misplaced aggressions from time to time the service isn't half bad either. read more

I woke up wanting breakfast but didn't want to cook. And for the past few months I've been saying I was going to stop in Gutbusters which is literally up the street from where I live. To today was the day that I placed an online order because driving by I usually see their parking lot is full as they are always full of customers. So I place my online order which said it would be ready within 15 minutes. I arrive for pickup exactly 15 minutes later. Walk in a see several people ordering and waiting in line for their food. I approach the online & phone order pickup line and was immediately greeted. She asked me my name and was able to locate my order. When I say quick and easy pickup and service, I was in and out within 2 minutes. I didn't get the young lady's name but she was really nice when assisting me. Despite busy super busy with customers, their service was A+. Although this was only my second time having Gutbusters for breakfast the food was amazingly good. I had two orders of their french toast because that's my favorite breakfast food. And an order of cheese grits which were the best cheese grits I ever had. Needless to say, I will definitely be ordering breakfast from here in the near future. read more

The food is beyond delicious & the owners are beautiful people inside & out!!! The restaurant is very clean. I highly recommend this soul food to everyone looking for ahmazing food. read more

Hubby and I LOVE coming here for a breakfast fix. I was the one that turned him on to this place. Prices are definitely reasonable and they give you big portions of food. For the price you can't beat it. I haven't had anything from here I didn't like. read more

Gutbusters Breakfast - Candler Rd - a sandwich and french toast in a styrofoam container - American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Gutbusters has the best breakfast in the city. Money & Value wise? You won't find a better option. $7 is gonna cover enough grits, eggs, meat, and bread to solve any hangover possible, so that's enough to cover everything else too. I don't really have anything 'special' to say about GB that hasn't already been said when it comes to breakfast. It's good, cheap, and if you tossed the tray of food at someone's head it's enough to knock them flat out. Yes, that's the best frame of measurement I can use at this time. So since breakfast is covered, let's talk the rest of the menu. Lunch wise? They make a pretty bomb hoagie, which shouldn't be odd considering they're definitely more a hoagie shop than a breakfast spot... but no one goes there for that and it's a shame. Their Italian is great, 12' & fries for like $8. Their rice dishes are good too, I like the lamb and rice for like $11 and once again, it's enough to be super filling. If you're looking for enough food to fill you up on a single meal for the rest of the day, Gutbusters will well, bust your gut. read more

Gut busters is your local "Hole In The Wall" takeout Breakfast spot. They serve hot breakfast to go! If your looking for a fancy, breakfast spot with top notch service, this isn't it. This the type of spot where you come, order quickly and patiently wait for your meal. Order a peach drank while you're there and enjoy it while you wait lol. The value for the amount of food you get is decent. For about $7 you can get eggs, a side, toast or a biscuit and a meat. You will definitely be full once you're finished. The cheese eggs & grits were my favorite. I like that I didn't have to add salt to the grits, however the potatoes lacked flavor and were a bit disappointing. The biscuit however was pillowy soft. I'd definitely come back for a quick weekday breakfast when I don't feel like cooking! May even bring my daughter here b4 school! read more

The line to order is ridiculously long which is how you know you had a great place to eat, but the service is fast so you won't be waiting long. I highly recommend this location because the food is delicious and the portions are large there's not much ambience but you don't need it because it's a pick up. Location. read more
