Pretty decent cafe - their fries are standout! Perfectly thin and crispy. Be prepared for it to be slammed during the weekends and needing to keep your eye out for a table, as well as needing to wipe it off yourself. You order at a counter and they'll bring the food out to your table. I got a BLT and thought it was pretty good. They also have cafe drinks and self serve water at the utensils station. Bathroom is in the lobby of the attached hotel. During the weekdays it's a bit more calm and can be a chill place to work or people watch if you sit at the counters.
Obsessed. The weekend grab and go Caesar wrap was such a great way to 'wrap up' a Sunday morning Beltline stroll. Not pictured but also split a side of the fries, thin and crispy!! Super aesthetic interior, and all the coffees looked awesome. Will definitely be back:).
Lobster roll was fantastic. I'd go just for this. It's quite busy on a weekend so it may take some time to order and sit but food was quick. It's a cafe vibe so don't expect a sit down experience.
*Review for coffee only Necessary Purveyor is on the block outside of Ponce City Market. We stopped in for coffee after the market. I had a matcha latte with strawberry, and my friend had a salted caramel latte. Hers may have been the best salted caramel I've had. Mine was also very good. That said, they are very pricy, for the same standard size. The cafe is nice and airy, with lots of windows, upscale casual. The service was friendly, drinks were prompt, though I note it was not very busy during the last afternoon.
Definitely one of those cute breakfast restaurants you go to for the picture or vibe. Since this is very common in Miami where I'm from, it wasn't anything out of this world for me. Felt like your typical semi-overpriced cafe. The egg biscuit was pretty good though!
Came on a weekend and it was definitely busy! The ordering process took a very long time! The line is long and getting your order is confusing. The coffee to the side doesn't even have a ticket system. They just say your name and leave it on the table but it got a little confusing if you share a name w someone or if you didn't see which drink they put down lol. I want the correct order if I'm paying $10 for a latte! We also got a breakfast plate and it was $18 and mediocre. The Rockos cutlet chicken was fried and pretty tender but the bread was a little dry. The service wasn't too friendly either, I tried to get a to go box and they just pointed in the direction of the line when the boxes were right in front of them. Overall, overpriced and overhyped in my opinion.
Stopped by Necessary Purveyor recently and was really impressed. This newer addition to Ponce City Market seems to have found a great groove--what started with more of a fine-dining approach has clearly evolved into something more customer-driven and approachable. The vibe and energy are great. There's always a steady flow of people, but it never feels overly crowded - just the right amount of buzz. It works for just about anything: casual coffee/matcha (ceremonial grade!), breakfast, lunch, drinks, a date, meeting with parents, or even a quick business bite. The bar also has a TV, which is nice for sports fans. Big fan of the grab-and-go market section too - perfect for quick, healthier bites before you head out or for a stroll on the beltline. Service was impressively fast. We tried the Cobb salad, steak sandwich, and short rib hash. The steak sandwich was outstanding and easily the standout of the meal, and hash a close second. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to!
Great strawberry matcha! Got it three mornings in a row. Woke me up and tasted just right in terms of sweetness level. Also really liked the bacon egg cheese bagel and the avocado toast. They make it on a sourdough bread which is sooo soft and fluffy. The one disappointing breakfast item I tried was the lox bagel. The lox was really overpowering and a bit too fishy - not sure what brand they use. Service was fast and nice! There's a good handful of tables inside, of varying sizes. Really nice to sit there in the morning and enjoy a good breakfast.
Stopped by for happy hour and had a great experience. The bartender was friendly and attentive, which always makes a difference. We ordered the fries, which were delicious as always and never disappoint. We also tried the tuna tartare--it was okay, just not our favorite item on the menu. One of the highlights was the drink dispenser, which was fun and tasted great. It's only available during happy hour, so definitely worth checking out. Overall, a great spot with a welcoming atmosphere, good drinks, and excellent service. We'll definitely be back!
uuUuuMmmMmM HELL YESSSZ! Came here because the chicken caesar was recommended, and omg!!!! It reminded me of a place from back home in Florida. Anyways, cayUuuUuTe cafe style vibes the kitchen and bar are in the center but the seating is nice. I believe it's lowkey a great coworking space as well. The cashier was also the bar tender great recommendations, super accommodating! Along with the wrap I got the shoe string fries 10/10. Will be back to try some pastries
Came in for brunch this past weekend and loved it. This spot is super cute and a great spot for a nice weekend brunch. Their lunch menu also looked really good - some good looking sandwich options. For brunch, we got the bacon egg and cheese biscuit and the pancakes. The biscuit sandwich was so good! The biscuit itself was delicious. The pancakes were yummy too. I liked the honey butter that came with it. It came with 3 pancakes so definitely enough to split! I also got the banana bread latte and it was incredible!
This is an amazing new spot to pop into at Ponce City Market!! Not only do they have amazing delicious coffee and pastries, but they also have a full brunch, lunch and dinner menu. The sandwiches are amazing and a perfect afternoon treat after shopping. I split a sandwich and fries with my sister and it was the perfect amount of food. I would highly recommend going over there! You can just walk in during the day and it seems like they have reservations as well for dinner!
This place has been all over social media lately for their yummy sandwiches and good offering. I can't attest to that because we only stopped here for coffee. I'm trying to cut down on caffeine and unfortunately, they do not offer decaf espresso. The staff suggested I get one shot of espresso instead of two in my latte, so I did just that with lavender syrup. It was definitely on the sweet side and was decent. My husband ordered a cortado - one shot for $5!!! Everything was decent but definitely will come back and try their food next time.
Oh babyyy, I am a new fan. I see what all the hype is about! I visited Necessary Purveyor on recommendation from my teammate, Sierra, as we planned lunch for two. As soon as she dropped their name, it was an immediate yes for me. I have heard, seen and read so many great things about the food and service, it was about time that I visited. Located at Ponce City Market, finding the restaurant is incredibly easy and there's lot and street parking all over. We visited on a weekday afternoon and I snagged a parking spot easily, and strolled right in. Necessary Purveyor is beautiful! It reminded me of a little French bistro. There are a number of tables all over and it's seat-yourself style. I grabbed a table as I waited for Sierra and took some time to look around. I love that they have fridges setup that have wine, beer, different sodas and juices, picnic needs and even some of their chicken salad and pastas to go. So many options! To order, guests must line up and order at the register and then your food is brought to your table. When I first entered, there were a number of parties sitting down but there was still space. As noon rolled around, it got thick in there! I could tell that the lunch rush was on and wow, did Necessary Purveyor get hit. But the team handled everyone so smoothly, the guests were patient and were rewarded by a swift ordering process. For lunch, Sierra went in knowing that she wanted their chicken salad as she said it was her favorite. I opted for the Mexican wrap and that bad boy was huge! All of the wraps that I saw coming out were massive. I'll definitely be back for a chicken caesar wrap! I loved that we could see all of the food being prepared behind the glass. Everything was delicious and I can't wait to go back! read more

This place is truly a gem. The interior is simply stunning and the food was AMAZING!! What a great addition to Ponce. The staff are super friendly and helped with so many recs. The banana bread latte was delicious and the "viral" chicken Cesar salad wrap was yummy! Can't wait to come back and try more and bring my laptop to do work next time! read more
Came here when visiting the Old Fourth Ward area of downtown Atlanta. So glad this place was recommended! This is counter service and you order when you walk in, grab a number and your food is delivered by a SUPER friendly staff member. There is a cooler where there are some quick grab and drink options. We ordered the steak sandwich, the Philly cheesesteak and a BLT. ALL were excellent!! Each sandwich was served on ciabatta style bread which sometimes can be a little hard and crusty. These were not! Soft and delicious. These sandwiches were stuffed and I have to say my favorites were the BLT and the Philly. Thank goodness we are a sharing family! Plenty for now and definitely needed boxes for later. Fantastic meal! Served with pencil thin cut French Fries and a side of ketchup. The staff here are super friendly, and there was a slight mishap right next to us involving some broken dishes. The server who slipped could not have been nicer and apologetic. She checked back on us several times. The restaurant has super high ceilings and it was quite lively and busy in there. It was a bit loud, but the food and service well over shadowed any problem with the noise. We had a great time, a quick lunch and full bellies!! Great location in a super cool and trendy area right outside Ponce City Market! Get here for this BLT!! read more
This is a super cute little spot. I've heard alot of great things about it so I had to check it out. The sandwhich was good but it was a little pricey. You do get a good amount of food but I still think it was over priced. The staff was sweet and the food was prepared fast. I would come back to this place and try something else if I was in the area. read more
This is a review on behalf of my husband, as they don't have much of anything GF (real bummer) but he loved it! He had a BEC sandwich for breakfast and an Iced Latte and really enjoyed them both. We went on their 2nd day open and it was already smooth sailing in there. Service was very friendly and fast. The space is so beautiful and clean. Great addition to the Scout Living hotel. I hope they consider getting some additional tea options (other than the current Chai and Matcha) in the future! read more

I ordered a matcha and it was tasty. I was a bit sticker shocked when I purchased the drink here compared to some of the other matcha drinks I've purchased. Inside is super cute and would be great for a brunch spot or to work remote for a morning. I felt the flavor add-in was a bit mild and wished it had been a bit stronger/more bold. read more

It's a nice casual ambiance. I was just in the neighborhood and wanted to stop in to check out this new business. There is a bar and there's also tables.You order your food and then you sit. the-line for just coffee's or pastries is separate from where you would order food. I ordered a latte - $7. If you want to add any sweetener, even if it's just simple syrup 1dollar. I went ahead and just got salted caramel to make my money's worth. There's one bathroom in the lobby of scout living. It's a gender-neutral bathroom, but there's just one. it's really nice. Have great products and great décor. I definitely would like to come back here and try some of their food. read more

I was very disappointed in this place. My friends and I came on a Sunday afternoon and had to wait for people to leave so we could sit after we ordered. We got the don theo , short rib & rockos cutlet. It was about $20 for each sandwich which is way overpriced. I won't come here again. read more

3rd time's a charm! I was on the HUNT for a great cup of coffee. I didn't even know this place existed. Stopped by Ponce City Market for an unrelated matter and Purveyor was PACKED! I thought why not give it a try . Their Americano did the trick. If you're in the area and looking for a swanky spot to grab coffee, breakfast or the like, give them a try . read more

AMAZING! The food was absolutely delicious! The fries were perfectly thin and crispy. The Caesar wrap was perfectly chopped and had the right amount of dressing with extra on the side if needed. We also got cappuccinos and they were fantastic. The service was absolutely wonderful and the staff were so kind. Love the vintage aesthetic as well. read more

tep inside and the first thing that grabs you is the space itself airy, open, and full of natural light. It's got that minimal, farmhouse-inspired aesthetic that makes you want to sit back and soak it all in. There's plenty of seating, so it never feels cramped, even during busier hours. Service, though, left something to be desired. I'm big on customer experience, and sometimes all it takes is a simple "hello" to set the tone. Here, the staff felt more reserved, which made the atmosphere feel a little flat. The main reason I came, though, was for the coffee. BigFace Coffee founded by NBA star Jimmy Butler has been on my radar, and I had to see what the hype was about. I ordered my usual vanilla oat latte. The roast itself was impressive: smooth, with a perfect shot that wasn't too bitter or sour. The flavor leaned a little sweet, but it still allowed the espresso to shine through. Beyond coffee, the menu extends to handcrafted sandwiches, pastries, and even a full bar, so there's something for everyone. Overall, my experience was good but not great. The coffee lived up to the reputation, the space was beautifully designed, but the customer service kept it from being as memorable as it could have been. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth a visit just don't expect the warmest welcome read more

Been coming here since they opened and received the worst service from Kim W. I've typically been able to adjust my egg preference on my bagel (done this plenty of times before, the manager also assured that though they typically don't, they didn't mind bc I've come so often) anyway.. she took my order and after taking my payment, she walks back over to me and says "look, we will not be able to do this again." Look? Excuse me? Really wish if she was unsure she would have been stern and not allow me to make adjustments and I wouldn't have been so irritated. But to take my order, take my payment, and call yourself checking a customer is unacceptable. Will never come back bc of such poor service. read more

I had the Short Rib & Fontina sandwich that has been the rage of food critics lately and it absolutely did not disappoint. The short rib melts in your mouth. The restaurants space is very nice as well. Not a lot of interaction with the staff since it's counter service, but everyone I encountered was very nice and helpful. read more

This place is a gem. Been in Georgia for business for a few weeks and I'm here almost every morning. The staff is warm and welcoming and the store is beautiful. You can either dine in or choose a great selection of grab and go quality food from the cooler, great option for those who are on long stays or working late. Ownership/ Management is hospitality driven and it is %1000 visible in the staff. Jordan and Tyler will take the time to make you feel welcome and Chris and Mel at the cashier area will remember your name and make you feel like your at home every time. Blown away. The food is also amazing which helps but the hospitality is above and beyond in every way from top to bottom. read more
