Classic 4-Star Breakfast Spot…read more This was a really solid breakfast spot. The atmosphere was popping. I went on a Saturday and it was crowded in the best way you can tell this is a place people genuinely like and come back to. I got a bagel sandwich and a plain bagel. I'll admit I made a bit of a weird combo (that's on me), but both were still really good overall. Price was fair and affordable, which always helps. Nothing that absolutely blew me away, but everything was done well. Overall: A true 4-star spot through and through I'd definitely come back.

Best bagel I have had outside of the Northeast and as good as any I have had anywhere. Rich flavor and dense texture. Every bite is a delight! Pleasant counter service offered and the team works efficiently and diligently despite an ever present line that often goes out the door!

The bagels aren't the softest or fluffiest bagels I've had, but still pretty good. I sampled the fig almond cream cheese and while it sounded really good, the almond extract flavor was just a bit too overwhelming for me, so I went with garlic herb and it was super flavorful! The inside of this place is also adorable and all of the workers are dressed like they work at an old soda shoppe, which made the experience really nice. The service was fairly quick and the people working were very friendly and helpful.

Solid breakfast and coffee spot near Atlanta, I do think their baked goods are the highlight, but…read morethe bagels are pretty good too. Personally, I found the sandwiches a little underwhelming, but the ambiance is very much of a cozy neighborhood spot. There's not a ton of seating and it fills up fast, there was a line for the majority of the time we were there, but the service was still reasonable. I definitely recommend planning on picking this up and taking it to go or eating outside. Food: 3.5/5 Coffee: 4/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 3.5/5 Overall: 3.75/5

Great bakery in Atlanta! My friend and I shared a variety of pastries:…read more - Sausage Roll: The flavor was great and a generous amount of meat. Wish this was heated up though, I feel like it would've been better. - Oxtail Meat Pie: Similar to the sausage roll with a generous amount of meat but wish it was heated up. It was pretty hefty. - Strawberry Pistachio and Coconut Cream Danishes: Both were so good! I loved the crispy and crunchy danishes and the flavors were great in these. I like the savory pistachios and the creamy and crumbly coconut cream. - Chocolate Chip Cookie: This was such a delicious cookie! Perfectly made in between soft and firm and textures. The sea salt on top was chef's kiss. The lines move pretty fast. There's nowhere to sit and lounge, so you would need to take these pastries elsewhere to enjoy. The staff is also really nice and patient when my friend and I were trying to decide on pastries. Overall, I think these pastries would do good in an air fryer/oven. I would come back, but bring the pastries home to warm and crisp them up a bit. I also really want to try their burger which is only sold on the weekend at certain times!

I decided to try the infamous Sunday burger. I was not in the mood to drive to Kirkwood on Sunday…read moreand miss what I drove there for. I called in the morning to confirm the time they serve it. I was told to get here by 12:30pm because they serve the burgers at 1pm and the line gets long and they run out. Found out later in line from the person in front of me that they make 130-170 burgers and they sell them all. That's a lot of burgers. I thought it was all hype because I got there at 12:20pm and there was no line. I went in and asked to make sure this was the right place, the guy said to wait outside, they start selling it at 1pm. I was 1st in line. Waited 5 mins then went to my car to get my headphones. By the time I came back, 3 people were now in front of me. I guess the 12:30pm recommendation was valid. By 12:35pm there were 20 people behind me. I do not like waiting, so I'm glad I was early to at least be served 1st. Never been here before, they are busy. When I got here, it was packed with people buying bread and pastries inside. I didn't get to buy the sourdough bread. It was sold out. Apparently, the locals come every Sunday for this burger. I guess they hang a burger flag out when it's burger time some of the people in the line in front of me felt a way that they didn't do that this time. I guess they're getting comfortable and just trying to knock the rush/crowd out. I think coming at one would be fine if they're selling 170 burgers I think the problem is they don't limit the amount of burgers you can buy. At least I don't think so. Now for this burger. Not worth it. Not worth the wait or the hype. I'm still surprised how basic tasted. They need a housemate sauce or something on it. It's literally just one burger and pickles. If it was pack full of flavor and well seasoned, that would be enough. But it's not. The best part about it is the bun. And 30mins after eating the burger, I didn't feel so good. My stomach started hurting, and that was the only thing I ate all day. I avoid eating beef altogether, but I will here and there as of late. My boyfriend eats beef, but he started feeling sick maybe an hour later as well. I was disappointed because I didn't know they pre-make the burgers and just throw them in the bag. You can't customize it or anything. I think we got sick because the burgers were medium. They were not cooked well, and I always get beef burgers cooked all the way through. The way they're rushing you out of there like an express assembly line is crazy. I really wanted to wait to ask them to prepare me two, made well since they were making burgers as they were going along, I believe. I would have waited to have them made well but the way they were rushing you out, it just wasn't the place to ask for anything extra or additional and I don't like places like that. Too strict too many rules and you don't feel comfortable. Even though you're spending $70 on 2 burgers and some pastries. Compared to a pack of ground beef to make your own burgers, this is a lot. I bought two burgers $17 each, and 5 pastries to try because I won't be coming back here anytime soon. I will say, great pastry selection. I was talking to a guy in line and I asked him if he ever had the kouign amann. It looked good. He said yes, it was good, and the chocolate kouign amann, he's going to try as well. I purchased a chocolate kouign amann, a regular kouign amann, cardamom bun, a hazelnut bun, and monkey bread. I wrote everything down outside that I was going to buy so I didn't waste any time. I already spotted the monkey bread when I walked in. The woman packaging up the food was about to fix her face to say they didn't have any monkey bread, when they were clearly at the other end. Maybe that was her doing me a favor because I was highly disappointed in the monkey bread. I'm on a monkey bread kick, and I have been trying it at a lot of places. This one was not good. They sprinkle lemon zest on it, which kind of threw me off, and the bread itself was very dry even after warming it up, adding melted butter and honey. It still was not good. The best thing was the original kouign amann. The chocolate one was not good because they have chocolate on the inside kind of like moose or ganache, but it was overwhelming. It tasted like dark cocoa chocolate, and I thought the pastry was dark because the whole thing was chocolate, but it actually was burnt. A lot of the items looked burnt to be honest. I think the demand is getting to this place. The cardamom bun was just ok. The hazelnut bun was just an extension of the monkey bread to me. Not a fan. I remember growing up, we went to the local butcher and bakery to get fresh meat, bread, and pastries for cheap. I like the idea of a local bakery and butcher shop like this, but this place is not cheap. I'd skip this one.

While the food was good, it wasn't great and I do think it is a tad overpriced. Although comparative to other options in the area, I think it's probably one of the better spots. I did appreciate that the fries seemed fresh and not frozen (who knows if that's true or not). I had a tuna melt and it was good but didn't blow me away. The sandwich was cold overall, and cold toasted bread just isn't my favorite (Maybe that's how a tuna melt is supposed to be? I don't know but I didn't like it).
