    Croissant

    When I heard a year ago that White Windmill was opening in Buckhead, I was thrilled. Other than Dunkin', there really aren't any bakeries near me that offer fresh pastries. I've always loved their Doraville and Duluth locations, and I was excited to have a location so conveniently close. The interior here is sleek and posh, with a spacious layout and plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. It feels modern and is a nice spot to relax with a coffee and a pastry. Staff is friendly, too. That said, this location has far fewer pastry options than the other stores. I've tried a few items, and the chocolate croissants stood out as a highlight to be. They're flaky, buttery, and delicious! Unfortunately, the drinks here haven't impressed me. I've tried four different beverages, and none have been great. The Lavender Latte ($6.50) tasted artificial, while the Mango Bubble Tea ($5.90) and Java Chip Bubble Tea ($5.20) were extremely watered down. Overall, if you're coming for the pastries, this location is okay but not outstanding compared to the other White Windmill locations. I likely won't return for drinks, but it's convenient for a quick pastry stop.

    Finally got the chance to visit this new location. It looks very nice and aesthetic, I like the ambiance and atmosphere in general. However, this specific day the AC wasn't working and it was super hot inside, which was disappointing because me and my friends ended up sitting outside (also warm); so it was inconvenient in that aspect. Service was friendly and fast. Our pastries definitely were affected by the temperature, some of the parts were melted and it was a little messy to eat them. Drinks were good. It's an "ok" location if you want to visit a cute store and visit the Buckhead area.

    I stopped here before heading to visions. The cream filled croissant donut was calling my name. The bonus was a couple samples laid out near the register and inside of the case. My favorite samples were the coconut ball and the mocha cream bun. The cake was a little dry and the croissant donut needs more filling and could have been softer. All and all I'll be back. The staff was great and parking was easy. The area is built up now and I love the restaurants they added and the aesthetic.

    We visited White Windmill today and it was such a lovely experience! When you walk in, you immediately notice the peaceful aesthetic and super tall ceiling with draped curtains. There is a huge self-serve pastry case and all of the pastries we tried were phenomenal. Very light and fluffy! We also got iced matcha lattes which were great. A bit of a warning: their "house coffee" comes pre-sweetened and if you don't want super sweet coffee order an americano instead. The staff was polite, not super chatty or friendly. Nobody greeted us when we came in or anything but when we approached the counter they were polite. We will be back for more of these pastries!

    We stopped in here before leaving the area. This was for an hour long drive we had ahead of us. The location was clean and there were a few people in the cafe but it wasn't noisy. The desserts all looked inviting. We ordered 2 coffees and a full size cake to go. I believe I had a rose latte. It was perfectly made. Later that night the people at our dinner party raved about the cake. It was worth the stop in.

    So excited to have a bakery in the neighborhood now! Stopped in opening day and will say it was a bit of a disorganized mess - two hours after opening, employees were still setting up and trays of pastries scattered all over the restaurant's tables with no sort of covering. Not sure how sanitary this was, especially as children ran around the restaurant hovering over the exposed pastries. We also were unfortunately not greeted or spoken to while we were there - simply just told our total bill at the register. While our experience got off to a rough start, White Windmill seriously made up for it in the quality of their pastries. Not only did we love the chocolate croissant, but the coffee was great too. The remodel of the space looks really great as well - aesthetic, clean, and well kept thus far. Overall, it was a bit of a weird experience, but the food was well worth it.

    Coffee bar, tables.

    Went for matcha, lattes and pastries. Had the croissant and a pain au raisin. Absolutely delicious! Wanted to try the tissue bread but someone got the last one before I could get to it. I was disappointed that they weren't bringing more pastries out. We got there at 10:45am and that's kinda strange that things were not being replaced. There were quite a few "missing items." Overall, it was a pleasant experience and I will go again just hope they have a better selection. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. Beautiful space. Free 1 hour validated parking.

    The bread here is really delicious. They're not stingy with the chocolate and pistachio at all

    The bread here is really delicious. They're not stingy with the chocolate and pistachio at all. The drinks are also tasty and refreshing. This is my first time coming here, and I already like this place. It's also a really chill spot to sit and relax.

    "Zamn Zaddy!" is right!…read more It took me 2-days to consume the huge Classic Chicken Caesar "Sammich" but it was worth savoring EVERY delicious bite! Additionally, I purchased the Kale Caesar salad as I've been on a long hunt for an all-Kale Caesar salad. Thankfully, social media led me to try this place. The customer service was excellent. She was attentive, patient, and made me feel very welcomed (felt like a hug). This vendor is located inside of Politan Row at Colony Square, so the ambiance was lively but not too loud for a Sunday. Can't wait to return! I'll take more food pics next time...ya girl was hungry LOL!

You place your order at the register and when your food is ready they call your name out. I ordered the chicken Caesar salad sandwich, the bread pudding and my friend ordered the tuna melt . The food came out fresh and did not take a long time to be prepared. I enjoyed every bite of my sandwich. It was flavorful and the portion size was great. Essentially you can eat 1/2 of the sandwich and save the other half for a second meal. Now the bread pudding was a disappointment. It was dry and lacked flavor, I would not recommend. My friend enjoyed her tuna melt, the only feedback she had was that the press did not allow for the inside of the sandwich to be warm. She thought the entire sandwich would be warm. I will be back for the chicken Caesar salad sandwich for sure !!

I had the Apollo 13 8" (pinners) sandwich and it was delicious, the juice from the dressing was running down my hand and yet, the sandwich still wasn't soggy or wet and the bread was perfectly toasted. I can't recall the last time I drunk Kool-Aid, but once I saw the flavors available, I filled my cup with the three flavors and headed to the table to wait for the server to bring my sandwich. It was not huge in a bad way, but just enough to be satisfying and filling. the staff was friendly and as I was waiting for my sandwiches I realized that this place is very cannabis friendly, from the Thanks for Pot Smoking sign to the 420-day promotion they are running. Full bar and lots of daily drink special. Nice varieties of chips at $2 a bag but I think that's average for a small bag of chips at a restaurant They sit next to a pizza restaurant and I believe share an outside patio. I sat inside and couldn't tell what the patio section really looked like and since pollen season is among us, it'll be October before I can find out. They offer 2 hours validated parking in the Paloma parking deck. They do not validate parking in the lot for Virgil's Not only will I return. I'm actually looking forward to it.

Your local fast food doesn't even come close.

Definitely will be back and worth the wait!

    First time ordering online, have ordered in person multiple times prior…read more Most of the order was going to my dog groomers, and two sandwiches would come home with me. Neither of the sandwiches had cheese, that I specifically added and paid additional. Upon calling to inform that neither of my sandwiches had cheese, not knowing what was the condition of the sandwiches and salads I dropped off at the dog groomers, I was met with "you can come back if you want for another sandwich". Ummmm..... try listening to the consumer. Credit them back the extra they payed that they didn't get. I even tipped $20 cash for just over $100 tab. I'm not driving 45 minutes for a sandwich that could have just been solved with a simple credit back, but sadly, this management is not capable of doing such a simple task. Very poor service and will not patron this establishment going forward. Shameful service.

You cannot go wrong with any of their menu choices, everything is amazing but my personal favorites are the Amber biscuit sandwich and the bacon, egg and Brie croissant. It's the same story for their side dishes, everything is great but I highly recommend the garlic and cheddar grits and the skillet hash potatoes. The service at Sean's is always polite and high-energy plus they're super knowledgeable about their menu selections. Another plus is there's always plenty of parking which isn't always the case around the park. Only slight downside is there's no indoor seating but on pretty days, it's very pleasant eating on their covered patio. So, in a nutshell, amazing food at reasonable prices, great service and cool ambiance (albeit outdoors). Highly recommend you check this place out!!!

    Oh babyyy, I am a new fan. I see what all the hype is about!…read more 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!
