So this coffee wasn't for me. My friend is a coffee snob and loved how funky and unique all the…read moredifferent beans were, but I was not a fan of my latte. The space was clean but very industrial minimalist which also just isn't my personal vibe. I can recognize that they are doing a really good job, I'm just too much of a basic b to really appreciate it. That's a me thing. Giving 4 stars bc I don't want to ding them for my personal preferences bc if you're a coffee snob they really are doing some interesting things.

Sidecar is hands down my favorite place for matcha in Atlanta! Their matcha is consistently smooth,…read moreflavorful, and perfectly balanced. The staff is always so kind and welcoming, which makes every visit even better. I also love their food and can't wait for their full menu to return. The egg toast and breakfast sandwich are both amazing--fresh, delicious, and the perfect pairing with a matcha.

I stopped by on a Monday afternoon on my way home from Dyer & Dyer Volvo. The small parking space…read morewas full and I wasn't sure where else to park. Finally decided to park across the street after making sure that the shop was closed for the day. Menu is not extensive. Friendly people working the counter. I asked for opinion of the seasonal latte: banana cream latte vs peach cobbler latte. Decided to give the banana cream latte a try. It was decent, but not out of the world.

Block & Drum is an incredible space with lots of events throughout the week. They have a classy…read moreinside part which usually has chairs and seating, then they have a giant outdoor space with a huge screen, green turf space, and more seating. They set up multiple bars for bigger events so you don't have to wait on line for long, and they typically already include tax and gratuity automatically. They've switched to valet parking only, or at least for the event I went to. It was $15 but they say you can park for free at the Walmart down the road.

Block & Drum on a Friday night was giving real chill vibes! The DJ was playing all the hits, and…read morethe ambiance was just cool and laid-back. It's definitely an adult setting with a good mix of ages, so there's something for everyone. One thing I really appreciated is that this is a smoke-free establishment, so we can breathe easy! Now, the mocktails... Save your $12. We ordered all three, and unfortunately, none of them really stood out. The food truck also wasn't out on this particular night, so I didn't get to try the food. Overall, though, I had a great experience and would definitely return. I may have to come back for Salsa Night because I'm curious to see how those vibes are!

Located in the plaza in Dunwoody, I stopped into Lucky Goat Coffee for a treat and went with a…read morecinnamon roll paired with a cold brew flavored with Hawaiian hazelnut. The cinnamon roll was perfectly balanced--not overly sweet--and paired really well with the bold, flavorful cold brew. The coffee itself was strong, smooth, and had a nice depth from the flavoring without being overpowering. Service was just as memorable as the drink. The team member who helped me was kind, attentive, and very helpful, which made the experience feel welcoming from start to finish. The ambiance is calm and cozy, with a nice mix of seating options--bar-style seating, comfortable chairs in the entryway, seating in the back, and a few patio chairs for those who want to sit outside. The menu also looks extensive, especially the summer drink options, which I'm already looking forward to coming back to try.

We came here in the afternoon and they had the best seasonal drink. It was the Spiced Ctirus Dirty…read moreChai, just in time for fall. The interior is long and narrow and a bit dark, not the best place to study or work in my opinion. That said, we sat outside at one of the two tables and the wifi was strong out there. Our drinks took about 5 minutes to come out. There was only one person working and she was super friendly. It got mine iced and it hit the spot. There was the perfect amount of spice, not so much that it was grainy. A 5 star for the taste of the drink and 3 star for study/work environment, for an overall 5 star rating. Give this place a try!

Craving something sweet? Yup, Freddo is a great option…read more They have a good variety of gelato flavors, I got the chance to try: tiramisu, Dulce de leche and Coffee/Chocolate, all of them were pretty good. They also have alfajores (I got maicena and dark chocolate) both pretty yummy too. There's a selection of empanadas if you're in the mood for something on the salty side. The service was fast and friendly, the place is clean and comfortable.

There were so many flavors that I wanted to sample. The gentleman was kind and let us sample a few. I did notice on the side where the flavors were posted were more flavors than you see behind the window. There is a decent amount of seating but they also stay pretty busy. Parking space can be limited.

I stumbled across Choice Coffee while walking around the plaza it's located in. This is a really…read morecute cafe, but it's more of a grab-and-go spot because seating is limited. I tried a large Matcha Latte ($5), which was delivered in less than 5 minutes of ordering. The drink tasted smooth and had the perfect amount of matcha. I liked the fact that the latte was not very sweet.

I also liked the music selection that was being played If I was in the area I would certainly come back. The prices were on the mark of the bigger chains. Parking could be a potential problem when busy. We happened to grab one of the 15 minute spots.

Occasionally, once or twice a year, she hosts a calligraphy instructor to teach an introductory class. We learned a variety of stroke patterns and dived into drawing bamboo and orchids.

I actually bought a Magic Tree House book because it was bilingual and they had Traditional Chinese characters with bopomofo (alphabet) alongside the characters. I have never seen a bilingual book like this before! They have some cute stickers and cards here too. I also saw a small selection of snacks and condiments like chili crisp. The cashier (who was probably the owner) was very nice! She spoke English and Mandarin.

The Vietnamese cold brew may not be the authentic coffee you get from Vietnamese restaurants on Buford Highway, but it was a tasty cold brew topped with condensed milk. I would totally order this one again! Next time I'm stopping at the Whole Foods hot bar, I'll be stopping at Allegro Coffee again!

You can get coffee and then walk around and get your groceries. Parking is a regular grocery store/shopping center parking lot. It's usually pretty busy in this area. Would def go back for coffee.

I absolutely adore this Asian bakery. It's very bare bones, but proves that you don't need frills…read moreand kitsch to sell a good bakery item. Everything I've gotten from here has been a hit. It even has managed to impress friends who don't adventure too far outside of their own American culinary tastes. The sweets here are the perfect amount of sweet. The savory items also contain a perfect hint of sweetness that somehow ties it all together. I've even had a matcha (less sugar) made here and my God it was unexpectedly delicious. I usually spend about $20-ish and share my bag full of goodies with my folks. I love that you can get a lot with a little -- the dollar still stretches here! Sometimes their open hours are a bit off, as if been before during regular hours and they've been closed. I'll also add that the entrance can be confusing as Family Baking shares space or simply is owned by Rolls Village. None of this stops me from stopping by. The cherry on top is that the service is truly phenomenal. I love being greeted where I spend money, and the guy who frequently mans the cash register has such great energy. He's efficient as hell too! When I visited, he skipped through the tipping portion of the POS both times... so I'm not sure if they accept tips but I won't complain too much about that LOL. Go!!!

I've had it from other places and the filling was scarce to none but not here !
