    Strawberry matcha!
    Jasmine D.

    Cute place. I had the strawberry matcha with oat milk I believe and it was great but you gotta shake it. Even though I love the layers it's gross if you don't mix it up lol. They present really well and the coffee prices are a bit higher than average. However the sweet treats were adorable but ridiculously overpriced! I think it was close to $20 per treat. At that rate you're paying for artwork.

    hot matcha latte. cute mug!

    I tried the earl grey mousse cake, the new strawberry lime yuzu tart, and hot matcha latte. I enjoyed the earl grey, and found the tart to be fine. The matcha latte was good, earthy and umami, but this is the most I've spent at a cafe for drink and a few pastries. I appreciate the intricacy of the desserts, but don't think I'll come often as there's many other cafes around the area that offer similar items at a lower price point. The baristas were friendly and there wasn't much of a wait for our drinks, and you buss your own dinnerware when you leave. The cafe itself is very aesthetic and modern, with lime-washed walls and wooden accents, and seems to be a popular spot to camp out and get work done. I believe they've added a QR code for their parking validation as there's a lot more traffic in this area now, but we went on a Friday morning and were able to grab a parking spot and a table for two.

    Raspberry Chocolate and Coffee

    Laylo Cafe is a modern cafe selling drinks and pastries. The interior is very sleek, but seating can be hard to find as it is a fairly new cafe with lots of customers coming in and out. They are known for their knitted mousse cakes, which at times run out for a bit. The service was good when I went. We got our cakes right on the spot. There is a retail parking garage next door which allows up to 5 hours of free parking after scanning the QR code inside the cafe. I split the Raspberry Chocolate and Coffee knitted mousse cakes with two other friends to lower costs. The knitted mousse cakes are based off of a Korean cafe, which means that they are not too sweet. The Raspberry Chocolate was in the shape of a yarn ball which was really cute. It tasted of dark chocolate and a raspberry sorbet or cream of sorts in the middle which made it both a sweet and tart dessert. I liked that the most out of the two cakes we got as the Coffee, which was supposed to have a caramel coffee mousse, tasted way too light. I definitely give props to the care they put in designing the knitted mousse cakes because they look incredible. However, the taste was a bit lackluster for my American taste palate, haha. Also, everything is kind of expensive... $12 to $15 for the knitted mousse cakes and around $7 to $10 for drinks, all of which were fairly small. I think that this place would be great a study spot or a chill hangout place to catch up with friends. But I think it is definitely overhyped in terms of the drinks and food (all being very adorable and creative). It is more of an aesthetic spot than a dine-in spot, in my opinion. I would check it out for the vibes, but it would not be in my rotation of cafes to go to. I would give it a 2.5/5 stars if I could.

    Overpriced and overhyped. Pastries were very pretty to look at but didn't taste half as good as they looked. The drinks were too pricey for the size they gave, I literally finished my drink by the time I got back to my car on my to go order. Influencers sure did oversell this place bc I definitely would not go again.

    TL;DR -- Laylo Coffee Shop is a sleek, modern spot with great vibes and plenty of space, but the drinks didn't quite hit the mark for us. The Earl Grey Mousse Cake was a nice treat, and the atmosphere makes it a solid hangout spot -- just don't come for the coffee. The space itself is genuinely impressive. Great lighting, simple and modern decor, and enough seating that you're not fighting strangers for a table -- rare for a spot this popular. It's still packed on weekends, but it doesn't feel cramped, which is a win. If you're looking for a place to catch up with friends or hang out for a few hours, this checks the box easily. They seem to have an on-site roaster, which got our hopes up -- but honestly, the drinks were a miss for us. Maybe we ordered the wrong thing, but it didn't leave us wanting to come back for another round. The food fared a little better. We tried the Earl Grey Mousse Cake, which was cute and tasty, though the blueberry jam inside pushed it into pretty-sweet territory. Worth a try if you've got a sweet tooth. One practical heads-up: parking is in the same building, but make sure you scan the QR code inside the store, or you'll have to go in for an extension. Drinks: 2/5 · Food: 3/5 · Atmosphere: 4/5

    Had the pleasure of meeting a friend at Laylo today, and it was such a lovely experience. Before jumping into the food and vibes, let's talk parking--because that always matters. GPS will route you directly into the parking deck; you'll want to park on the lower retail level. Upon arrival, scan the QR code to register your car, and once inside, there's another QR code that extends your parking for up to five hours, which is a huge plus. Now for the ambiance--very chic and calming. The space offers a variety of seating options, perfect for both intimate meet-ups and larger groups. I was immediately drawn to the glass-filled shelving showcasing a few bakery selections. I opted for the glazed croissant paired with an iced latte with caramel drizzle, and let me tell you--the latte was amazing down to the very last drop. My friend also thoroughly enjoyed her strawberry iced matcha. This was my first visit, but it definitely won't be my last. A great spot for conversation, coffee, and a calm reset.

    Amazing coffee and pastries. Easy parking in the attached parking deck. Their house drip is strong. If you stay and drink, you get a free refill. The black matcha croissant was so good. The matcha cream was so flavorful without being too sweet The earl grey sweater pastry was also amazing. One of the best I've ever had. Can't wait to try their other pastries.

    No food

    Congratulations to those that were able to figure out parking and actually try the desserts here at this new spot. Took me almost an hour in traffic from Duluth to get here. I arrived on a Thursday at 10:30am, but the parking garage for retail was about 95% full. Weekends when people are actually off work must be a nightmare. Then, I had to walk around the entire building uphill to find the shop. Which took another 15 minutes. Why is no one mentioning this issue? Are they all paid reviews? Then, when I arrive they are packed and have NO DESSERTS, no food all, see photo. Understand they are in soft opening, so will try back later. Added photos to help with parking situation... Mainly, just want to let you know to use the "RETAIL PARKING" packed levels at Manor Apartments. Then, do not use stairs and exit front side of the building to find this business streetside. Yes, cars will try to run you over at high speed in the garage, so just be careful. If you use proper exits, it will take you to the back of the building and walk another 15 minutes around the entire building uphill. Good luck and enjoy!

    Disappointment

    I mean the hype is definitely real this place is one a kind (for Atlanta) and totally adorable. But unfortunately the overall experience really was dampened. I came in on a Friday at 8:00am and there was minimal wait but unfortunately they had no matcha and the workers let me know it would be at least another week until it was back? That feels a little crazy... As for the pastries these are definitely worth the visit! The mousse cake creations are absolutely divine. I got the coffee sweater cake... it reminded us a lot of a tiramisu and was yummy but unfortunately this is a warning no one gave us DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING TO GO!!! This cake could not even last the 15 minute transport back to the house without turning into a melty mess. Super disappointing especially with all precautions taken to secure it. The dirty pan au chocolat was yummy just nothing super special I should've gotten a different/ more unique pastry. And it was very messy. Parking is super convenient the deck is right next door and free. I wish I could've tried the matcha and had a better overall experience but everyone should try it and DINE IN STORE !!

    For starters parking was free! This is a rarity when an establishment is attached to a living community. Upon entering the establishment, I immediately realized how clean and aesthetically pleasing it was. When I arrived, there was no line and more than enough tables available for you to sit and enjoy your coffee and pastries. The customer service here was exceptional. I was informed about the products, and offered friendly energy/vibes from each, and every person that works here. While waiting for my to go order, I was offered free water and to go utensils that were handed to me directly by the staff. The decorative pastries are a bit pricy starting at $13, but delicious nonetheless! For two coffees and a pastry i spent about $28

    Came here on a weekend and the wait was something to be expected. There is parking in the retail parking spots of the apartment complex but it definitely got very busy as it's directly in front of a traffic light too-so it got backed up fast. The line was not too long when I came in but very very slow to move. I think I waited around 35 minutes with maybe five people in front of me. Service was okay, the display shelf had no cakes left except for one pineapple lime so I asked if there was any cakes and she sighed and said yes it'll take like 10 minutes. So I ordered the earl grey cake and a vanilla latte. The latte was pretty good. They ran out of matcha but the price of the matcha was definitely steep. It was $9!! The cake was $14. Was it worth $14? Not sure lol. I thought it was okay. The earl grey flavor was not as strong as I thought it would be and the bottom was stale. I thought the service was kinda rude as well. The line up situation was so confusing, and the employee was not nice when directing traffic. Since this was an aesthetically pleasing place, many were taking pictures and I could hear her mutter "better not get me in the picture." Hopefully this spot improved because the interior is very pretty and seems like a great catch up spot with friends. But the wait and price is not very justified.

    Kindly disregard any reviews falling short of five stars; we should be championing establishments that prioritize aesthetic intentionality and refined presentation. Laylo is a VERY rare gem within the Atlanta landscape, meritous of even more than a perfect score for its attention to detail. Thank you, Laylo Cafe, for setting such a sophisticated standard for our city.

    This new cafe brings a whole new aesthetic to Atlanta. The prices are definitely higher than other places. We wanted to try it out at least one time. The desserts looked cute, but not at the cost of paying over $10 for a small tart. But again, just this once right? The strawberry matcha was also pricey compared to other cafes. It definitely was a good brand of matcha though.

    Skilled latte art! Things you should know:…read moreI. PARKING There's slim spaces of parallel parking in front of the building, but to the street to the left (Pierce Dr.) there's more free spaces. II. SERVICE The barista making the latte art is talented! This is one of the slim cafes in Atlanta and the surrounding area that uses glassware, elevating the experience. There's outlets throughout the cafe and a self-service water station. III. QUALITY All of the coffee I've tasted has been dense in flavor. Great craftsmanship. IV. CAPACITY Seating is quite limited with how in demand this location is. I went around noon on a week day and got lucky to find a spot. I can imagine weekends are even busier; I recommend visiting on a work day.

The space is open, airy, and thoughtfully designed. I especially loved the seating layout. There's actually room to breathe. You're not crammed next to other tables or accidentally overhearing your neighbor's entire life story. Some cafes feel packed like sardines, but Kin does it right. They even have a cozy living-room style seating area that adds to the relaxed vibe. There's also outdoor seating, which would be perfect on a beautiful day. The latte I ordered was divine- smooth, balanced, and perfectly crafted. As someone who loves good latte art, Kin's baristas absolutely deliver. We were served the most beautiful swan latte art, which made the experience even better. Totally brewtiful! Everyone in our group loved their drinks. One friend mentioned their strawberry matcha is amazing, so that's definitely on my list for my next visit. Another thing I loved: they showcase work from local artists that's displayed and available for purchase. Love, love, love when cafés support local creatives. They also offer a few pastry options that could pair nicely with your drink. Will have to try that next time My only wish? That they stayed open later because I could easily see myself hanging out here all the time. If you appreciate great coffee, good and chill vibes, and cafes that really know their craft, definitely check out Kin Coffee. They even roast their own beans, which makes it a true coffee lover's spot.

I opted to park at the Wal-Mart and wasn't as familiar with the trail so I took the street route. Well-light and populated for safe crossing. The venue is very open and was relatively empty since we arrived shortly after it opened. I love the indoor seating concept with plenty of couches, movable chairs, tables near the open-area space and smaller sections for 2-4 people tucked away along the wall. The DJ was already doing his thing and the bartenders remained busy. As someone who wasn't interested in the drinks, I appreciate that there was a self-serve water cooler in the center of the room. The Jenga and jumbo Uno cards were a hit!!!! It was so nice to have these options available. And as others mentioned, the large screen was playing a classic movie - which we could still see from inside. I didn't stay long and this was a Sunday night but the parking lot was much busier when I left. I imagine the outdoor space gets crowded later in the evening as well. The DJ was just okay - not my cup of tea - but folks seemed to be enjoying themselves. I can definitely see why this place is popular. Although parking is less than desirable, it is not unreasonable. The venue is well-lit and easy to move around. The crowd was diverse, with various ages and backgrounds represented. And depending on the DJ, this would be a great place for meeting with friends, date night or just zoning out to some wonderful music ... especially on a beautiful night.

For $26, I got a ton of food and 90% of it was absolutely delectable. And I say that with an 8-year-old in tow who enjoyed it too! Let's start with the never again item: the Flossy Bun. It's a popular Chinese pastry made with soft, sweet bread filled and topped with sweet and savory pork floss... allegedly. There weren't any descriptions, so I looked it up online. But let me tell you--no. Just no. I don't get how it's popular. Definitely a cultural preference, and it's not for me. I even paused mid-bite hoping I'd grow into the flavor. Nope. Then there was the Coffee Butter Cream Pastry. I thought at the very least my fiancée would like it since she enjoys coffee flavors. That was another miss. I even gave some to two little ones, and the faces they made reminded me of the time I tried canned octopus. That's how bad the flavor was. But now to the good stuff--because the rest? Fire. BBQ Pork Bun - Yummy! Not packed with meat, but enough to enjoy and super easy to pull apart. I really wish they offered a heated option for this, because that would've put it over the top. Japanese Milk Cream Bun - Super creamy. I do wish it had just a little more cream inside, but the bread was so soft and delicious, I honestly didn't care. Hot Dog Cheese Bun - I got this for the little one and I've never seen a child eat something so fast. I'm taking that as a solid win. Egg Tart - Grabbed this from the front warmer after watching another customer snag one. I had missed it earlier. Not totally my thing on its own, but when I got home and added a little chili paste? Devoured. Hong Kong Boba Milk Tea - I went with this instead of the brown sugar version and kind of regret it, but it wasn't bad at all. All in all, the prices are great, the flavors were mostly on point, and the man at the register was super friendly and open to answering questions. Yeah--I'm sold. Looking forward to coming back!
