Been coming here for years and this adorable coffee shop has never disappointed me. They keep their drink menu fresh with seasonal drinks year round, they keep expanding the food menu so you can even have a full sit down meal at breakfast or lunch here, and the staff members are always so friendly and helpful. They are kid and dog friendly which is a perk too! They are always adding new fun things like flea markets, movies in the garden, game nights, crafting, and you can now order pizza from across the street and enjoy drinks in the evenings!

Ordering window

My husband had heard nothing but good things about this little place so he drove me out to take a look. It was a very sunny and beautiful day so we decided to take a trip and get a coffee. Parking can be a hassle as the parking lot fills up quick. I got a matcha latte with coconut milk and vanilla. It took some time for my order to get out and once I got it was a beautiful green color. The portions of the matcha weren't the best for the size I got so it was very watered down. I was a bit disappointed so next time I think I'll get a smaller size. The overall ambiance and aesthetic of the place was super cute and family friendly. Next time, we will stay for a full brunch.

I was out here for an event and decided to try a drink and some food. The chicken salad sandwich was so good. I also tried a lavender tea. If I were out in this area again, I would definitely come back for something else. The employee at the window was so helpful and suggested my order to me. She had great suggestions because I enjoyed everything I purchased. The restaurant is at the end of the shopping plaza and has a huge grassy area next to it. The space is perfect for outdoor events and the outdoor seating area was perfect for a nice outing with family or friends.

Espresso, almond milk macchiato

I had an espresso and a macchiato with almond milk. Both were pretty good. The espresso was pretty good. They get their beans from Rev Coffee roasters which is one of my go-tos so I recognized the quality. It had a very slight burnt taste but not too bad. The almond milk for the macchiato helped to balance the espresso.

So where do I begin to tell the story of Sessions......located in a residential area behind Kennestone Hospital in Marietta. The weather was nice enough to choose outside seating. We asked for a printed menu, and that's when things became very irritating. We were told to use our phones to scan the QR code placed on our table #11. The print on the phone was very small, and it was hard to see what ingredients were in the diffetent items. At this point we were contemplating going somewhere else. But hey, we are not quitters. While playing with our phones we asked for help because we were very frustrated. Nice server came and guided us through the entire ordering process which took quite long time. But this young lady worked very hard to make us happy. Some popular items were sold out before 10:30 am. I understand that this can happen However, if some menu items are so popular, why was the kitchen not prepared for that. After ordering I asked to be sure that the nice server would get her tip. She informed me that all the servers share the tips. I know that some restaurants do that, but as an old restaurant manager, I do not like that. So at the end I insisted giving her a cash tip. She earned it. While waiting for our food we enjoyed watching families with their dogs and playing children on the huge backyard playground. So this restaurant offers a cozy family friendly atmosphere for their quests. But not necessarily a quiet one. Finally we got our meals. Mine was chicken salad croissant with some chips and greens with coffee. My friend ordered a latte with a salad. She was very happy with her latte and she liked her salad. My chicken salad was too thick to my taste and was missing some flavor. Our server was attentive and checked on us several times. So the customer service is good here and seems that the team works well together. Overall, this entire concept is great, nice surroundings, modern interior, inside and outside seating, and chance to order at the front entrance or at the table. There is also a room for a private party at the back of the restaurant. But I found only one unisex restroom with a babychanching table. Not a problem to me, but I think there should be more restrooms. This place was great, and I understand why it's popular but I will not return anytime soon. Next time I will choose an establishment where I don't have to scan QR codes and I will have a menu in my hand. I'm all for progress, but I want to enjoy my meals without this kind of hassle.

Very aesthetically pleasing. You can place an order at the outdoor window or from the QR code inside at the different seating locations. I ordered the ham and cheese croissant and iced chai latte. Small parking lot on site. The food and beverage wasn't my favorite but a cute place to come work for the day.

I'm gonna be honest, this was probably the worst matcha I've ever gotten from a cafe. It wasn't sweet, had no flavor and was just so so bad overall. And idk why I got a large. It was very pricey too! Loved the ambiance and space. Might come back to try something else, but I would definitely skip the matcha next time.

Stumbled upon this place and was surprised I haven't heard of it before. Beautiful on the inside and fun on the outside, with plenty of seating and a playground for kids to play. Food and drinks are reasonably priced and tasted good as well

The sandwich advertised! Look at the meat stack and apple slices.
Meagan D.

Today was not a good experience. We ordered a good bit because when you come parking is so hard. We ordered two lunch sandwiches (based on their IG post) and I feel we did not get what was advertised. The bread was toasted really hard and hardly any meat. When I asked for the bread not to be hard they wanted to charge me for a whole other sandwich. They won't even fix it had I had the option for it not to be this toasted I would have said no toasting. Then To try and say "it's always this toasted" as if I have never had a sandwich from here. I really miss the old window when it was smaller. It's just too much of a trip to keep coming back for this type of quality and treatment. I'm done.

One of the best coffee shops in Marietta. Come, relax or work and stay. You won't regret it. The only difficulty is finding a parking spot--it's always busy.

The cutest coffee shop I've ever seen in an unexpected place. Location and Parking Located on a quiet residential street in Marietta, Sessions Stand has a small lot with free parking. Venue and Atmosphere Sessions has a large beautiful patio, overlooking a grassy lawn. The inside is very beautiful, with plush seating, as well of plenty of table if you want to sit and study. Service Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. The ordering system isn't clear upfront, but a kind employee explained it to me. Food and Beverages The salmon toast was amazing, as was the jalapeno/bacon pastry and the desserts. The club sandwich was good but I don't need to order it again. The special latte of the month was fragrant and beautifully presented. Verdict I'll be back!

See all

The place is roomy and beautiful and the drinks/Coffees are great but skip the lunch it's overpriced and bland especially the soups.

For the best in the cake business in the Atlanta area, look no further than Lush Cakery! I…read moretypically never, ever care for wedding cakes... They're usually nothing special. But cakes from this shop are crowd-favorites! Everyone at my wedding raved about the cake, even months later people still brought it up. I highly recommend this business.

We had a great time tasting cakes with our wedding planner, Jordan Flowers of Wedding Belles, and…read moreKathryn ("Kat") Steed, sole owner and cake maker at Lush Cakery in Marietta. Jordan recommended Lush Cakery to my fiancee and me (our planner does not accept kickbacks, but instead passes on any discounts she may get on to us) and that is enough praise for me. My fiancee, through her own research, noticed that Lush Cakery has had a hand in a lot of nice weddings in Atlanta. She absolutely loves the look of Lush's cakes (she describes them as beautiful, fun, and creative). I asked Kat how many weddings she did last year and she told me, if I recall correctly, 185 (all by herself!). She doesn't plan on doing that many per year going forward, but she definitely has the experience and is well known in the Atlanta wedding community. Kat moved into a cute space just off Marietta Square a couple years ago. There's a retail space, open four days a week, and a tasting room, available by appointment only. The shop can also be booked for small events like bridal and baby showers. Kat was waiting for us promptly at our appointment time. My fiancee and I were accompanied by our planner for the tasting. The tasting room was quaint and charming. It reminded my fiancee of an attractive sitting room, like something you would see on HGTV. We got to know Kat and she got to know us. She let us swipe through cake designs on her iPad while talking to us about our wedding, our tastes/visions for our cake, and how our cake would align with our wedding overall. For example, we talked about the season of our wedding, whether it's going to be indoor or outdoor, etc. These kinds of things can affect the ingredients and flavors of our wedding cake. There was a menu at the table with Lush's most popular wedding cake flavors. We tasted the following six flavors: * Salted caramel * Amaretto white chocolate red raspberry * Triple chocolate hazelnut * Grand Marnier strawberries and cream * Cinnamon * Cream cheese pound with lemon curd Kat had the first five flavors in the list above ready to go on a plate for each of us. The last one was requested by my fiancee who was interested in trying the lemon curd after seeing it on the menu. My eyes lit up as I bit into these cakes. What impressed me most about them was actually not their flavor, but their consistency. Every single slice was perfectly fluffy and moist. They were tender and delicate with good crumb. Flavor-wise, they were sweet, but not too sweet. My favorite flavors were the salted caramel and the strawberries and cream. My fiancee's favorite flavors were the amaretto white chocolate red raspberry and the triple chocolate hazelnut. My fiancee thought both the strawberry and cinnamon tasted delicious, but were a little too simple for her tastes. The cream cheese pound cake with lemon curd was outstanding, but we agreed that we liked the lighter, less dense textures of the other cakes for our wedding cake. Everything we tried tasted great, so what it really came down to here was personal preference. We want a classic, elegant looking cake so Kat suggested a traditional three-tier round cake. We'll have it decorated with flowers from our florist, Julie Coffin of Unique Floral Expressions, who is one of the rock stars of the Atlanta wedding industry and whom Kat has worked many weddings with. We chose our cake and icing flavors, along with a fun design extra, and were quoted under $700 for our cake (tax and delivery included). The cake will serve 100. We'll have more than 100 guests, but there will be other dessert options too. Kat's quote is about $200 higher than another quote we recently received, so Lush is on the higher side. However, the other quote did not include an extra design element and the Lush quote also includes a "complimentary" anniversary tier a year after our wedding. A $150 non-refundable deposit is required to secure a date. We received Kat's proposal via email quickly after our meeting. My fiancee had a question and it didn't take long for Kat to respond. All in all, this was a wonderful experience. Now we just have to make a decision! Throughout our wedding planning process so far, this has turned out to be the most difficult decision yet.

Thus shop is doing all things right!…read more Let's start with how we got here ! A friend sent me a picture of a Tik Tok picture featuring an ube latte! I responded with - when are we going? We decided we would wait until the weekend since we would have to drive from Cobb county to the city. I started doing some research and did not see ube latte on the menu. I called the phone number listed on yelp- but it appears it is just a cell number and went directly to voicemail. I went to the website and found an email address. I sent a basic question/ do you have an Ube latte on your menu? To my surprise I received a response! This simple response was exhibit A that they don't play about customer service On Saturday morning I arrived to the shop around 11am! The coffee shop is a neighborhood spot! As such, you will just have to find street parking in the neighborhood. I ended up parking a block away. This place was crowded! I did have to wait in a line. However, I enjoyed checking out the item for sale while waiting in line. The book titles had me laughing , this is your go to spot for a unique gift! We ended up ordering the following: 1. Hot Matcha latte with ube and oat milk 2. Hot ube latte with oat milk 3. Cheese danish NOTE: I did confirm that the matcha they use is NOT pre- sweetened. This is a huge plus in my book!! The item came out quickly. All items weee served in to go containers. I am not sure if this is just standard practice even if you are dining in. We were able to grab a table outside! However, this place was crowded and open seating was limited! My matcha was AMAZING! It was not too sweet, which is how I like my matcha. The cheese danish was also delightful. My friend said she enjoyed her latte too. I will note that I did not taste the Ube flavor. This coffee shop is a vibe, but also serves yo tasty drinks and treats! I would highly recommend checking this spot out !

Vibes are great, coffee is great. Staff is friendly. Lots of sunlight. It feels a bit Gilmore Girls…read morein the way it's nestled into a little neighborhood. No notes.
