Cafe Lavande

★★★★☆ 4.3 (44)

"I just discovered a new cafe that has everything I love: vibrant coffees, delicious pastries made in house, and comfortable seating and modern decor. I tried the lavender latte, and it was perfect. It had a rich flavor and a smooth texture. Can't recommend enough the walnut coffee cake which is light and airy with a satisfying texture. They had other pastries on display like scones, muffins, and cakes -- all looked tempting. The seating area was spacious and comfortable. The decor was modern and stylish with music which was upbeat and relaxing, creating a lively mood. It's the great place to hang out with friends or read a book. If you're looking for a new cafe to try with attentive friendly service, I highly recommend it."

Sun in My Belly

★★★★☆ 3.9 (1487) • $$

"Went for brunch. Sat inside and the space is big.The Bloody Mary is tasty. Chicken salad sandwich - needs more flavor. Sizable portion. Beet couscous with goat cheese- sounds amazing but the taste was rather flavorless"

illy Caffé

★★★★☆ 3.8 (34)

"Cute little cafe spot with good coffee and sweets! They have illy crema which is hands down the best thing ever. Service was quick from what I saw."

Duck Donuts

★★★★☆ 4.4 (115)

"I have driven by Duck Donuts many times and have always wanted to stop in. I finally stopped in last week with my friend after eating lunch. The donuts are made to order, which is really cool. You can watch them fry your donuts and then decorate them. They have a huge menu with so many different flavors and toppings, and you can also customize your own doughnut icing & toppings. The base donut is vanilla cake.My friend and I shared a box of 6 donuts in the following flavors:- lemon icing with strawberry drizzle- blueberry pancake- cookies and cream- maple bacon- cinnamon bun- chocolate icing with sprinklesMy favorites were the first three, but they were all really tasty! They are really sweet and fun flavors, but I appreciate that they are a normal size donut, rather than an overly huge one."

Sean's Heart of the Park

★★★★★ 4.6 (70)

"This feels like a hidden gem to me. I got the breakfast wrap with pulled pork, and now I want to try everything on their menu. They had live music while I was there (I want to say Sunday morning), and it was a vibe."

Wonderful World Coffee and Tea

★★★★★ 4.9 (23)

"This coffee spot is a staple in my weekend routine since it's in the same plaza where our kiddo's indoor gym class is. Inside the vibe is welcoming and chill with a variety of plants (some which are available for sale). Theres also some card games and magazines to use if you're inclined. In addition, there's a good variety of seating types (a few couches and tables). The staff is always pleasant and welcoming as well. I normally have the iced americano but have been enjoying their oat milk latte as the weather's been colder.Definitely a coffee spot to check out if you're in the area."

Village Coffee House

★★★★☆ 3.8 (25)

"Village Coffee House is a homey, locally-owned coffee shop that matches the eclectic vibe of the Little 5 Points neighborhood and offers a welcome alternative to the corporate chain coffee shops that seem to dominate Atlanta. We visited on a late Sunday morning, and were immediately impressed by their COVID precautions. In an area often teeming now with overly-crowded sidewalk cafes and shops that make me more than a little uncomfortable, I was pleased to see that Village has shut down their interior dining space and now operates fully as a walk-up counter. Their menu was posted outside, making it easy to plan your order before approaching the door. Although I am not sure, Village seems to be family-operated and a black-owned business, and the two baristas working that morning were friendly, conscientious and, most importantly, masked. Although it took a little longer to get our orders than it might at other more well-piled machines, it was worth it. I ordered a cafe au lait, which was a simple but satisfying spin on a boring latte. She had an iced chai with soy, which was rich, spicy and a real treat, along with an iced black coffee for good measure, which was excellently brewed and not sour or overly bitter like some other iced coffees out there. For a snack, we shared a piece of what seemed to be homemade baklava, which was just sweet enough to hit the spot. Instead of opting for Village's outdoor seating, which was in too close proximity to the bustling brunch scene next door, we opted to take our beverages in the park down the street, making for an ideal fall morning. I recommend Village as a great way to support a locally-owned business in a rapidly changing neighborhood, and for a friendly and tasty coffee break anytime."

Sessions Stand

★★★★★ 4.5 (99) • $$

"Beautiful space inviting you to come and stay awhile. The service is fast and friendly. We had a little trouble with the internet but a server was happy to help us get it working.The seating areas are varied--sofas and chairs with cozy pillows, group table with good apothecary lighting, bistro tables and patio sets outside.The food was amazing! If we lived here we would come often.Oh they also serve wine and beer at their beautiful arched mirrored bar with gold accents throughout.Plenty of parking too."

WFM Coffee Bar

★★★★☆ 4 (11)

"I rarely got a chance to check out the Revelator in this Whole Foods before it became Allegro Coffee. I decided to pick up a quick pick me up after lunch. 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!"

Caffe Antico

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (89)

"Caffe Antico is the gelateria (gelato shop) and pasticceria (pastry shop) located in Westside Atlanta's Little Italia. Caffe Antico isn't to be confused with Caffe Gio, also located in Little Italia. I don't know if Caffe Gio actually still exists in any official capacity. I happened to be the first to review it on Yelp 10 years ago (2013): https://www.yelp.com/biz/caffé-gio-atlanta-2?hrid=0Y5uUatRgBEm1t1iH50Bzg&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct).Concepts and brands have popped up (e.g., Gio's Sicilian: https://www.yelp.com/biz/gios-sicilian-pizza-shop-atlanta) and come and gone in this mini Italian empire. It was started by Antico Pizza owner Giovanni Di Palma and his older brother Giuseppe. It goes without saying that Antico is the heart of Little Italia, followed by Gio's Chicken Amalfitano. Antico opened in 2009: https://www.yelp.com/biz/antico-pizza-atlanta. Gio's Chicken opened in 2012: https://www.yelp.com/biz/gios-chicken-amalfitano-atlanta. Having lived in this area since 2000, it's been interesting for me to see how Little Italia has steadily expanded into multiple spaces and buildings near Hemphill and Ethel in Home Park, close to Georgia Tech and Atlantic Station.The way I see it is that Caffe Antico is the successor to Caffe Gio. Unlike Caffe Gio, which was located on the backside of Gio's Chicken, Caffe Antico is located across Ethel Street in an old home that's been renovated to house not only Caffe Antico, but Bar Amalfi: https://www.yelp.com/biz/bar-amalfi-atlanta. Bar Amalfi is open in the evenings seasonally. Caffe Antico is open year-round. One thing I like about Caffe Antico, Bar Amalfi, and Little Italia in general is the "authentic" Italian atmosphere that the Di Palmas have been able to create. It feels a little like Italy. Also, it doesn't scream gentrification like, say, The Interlock and Star Metals a couple blocks away. The growth/expansion has been organic and they've been able to integrate nicely into the neighborhood. When the weather is nice, the patio at Caffe Antico and Bar Amalfi is pleasant and enjoyable to sit on and hang out at. You can even bring your Antico Pizza and Gio Chicken's here to eat if you want (good pro tip if the dine-in spaces there are busy/full).I've tried most of Caffe Antico's gelato flavors and they're all delicious to me. During our last visit, they had about a dozen or so different flavors of gelato and sorbet including chocolate, cookies and cream, strawberry, espresso, chocolate chip, mint chocolate chip, hazelnut, salted caramel, pistachio, and vanilla. They also had an assortment of Italian pies, cakes, and desserts, plus various cannoli ($3.50 each) and refrigerated grab-and-go refreshments. The gelato ranged in price from $5-7 before tax and tip for a scoop, half and half, or a special three-flavor combo. All gelato is served with a wafer/cookie. Service has always been good.Free parking is available on Ethel Street plus in various paved and gravel lots around the three buildings of Little Italia."

Vincent Bakery Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.7 (74) • $

"Just like Mozart Bakery chain, this Korean bakery/bakeries (several locations) is inspired by artist, Vincent Van Gogh...and you'll see his pic and other inspired artworks throughout the cafe. I've been to this Pleasant Hill location just once before, and I've always thought the place itself is very charming...a great, serene ambiance. However, there are so many bakeries in Duluth (and surrounding areas) with HUGE, extensive selections...and sadly, this bakery cafe selection pales in comparison. If only this place made its way to someplace like Charlotte, where there wouldn't be much competition for light pastries.Still, I stopped in to pick up 3 pastry items to go. Just like all the bakeries, these pastries are made fresh daily, and individually wrapped (Covid-friendly!), and thoroughly delicious.PS*** I'm revising the review up to 4 stars...because by now I've tried all 3 pastries, and they were AMAZING!!"

San Francisco Coffee Roasting Company

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (101) • $

"We were staying for the night in Atlanta. Needed some caffeine to start our day. My mr and I saw that this place was 5 minutes from where we were staying and had decent reviews. Thought we would try it out.Place is clean, open and spacious with plenty of seating. Masks are required and they only accept credit card. My Mr ordered the Fade to Black (dark roast). I got the Cappuccino Latte sub almond milk. We split and egg sandwich on ciabatta bread. Verdict? The best Cappuccino I've ever had. Not to hot, on point with the flavor and very fresh. The sandwich was delish and my Mr loved his dark roast. They carry hot chocolate, chai, iced/hot teas, espressos, hot and cold coffees. Also you can purchase bags of coffee. Highly recommend this place for all you coffee lovers."

The Little Tart Bakeshop

★★★★★ 4.5 (113) • $$

"Stopped by for a quick breakfast and didn't expect such delicious and well-made pastries and coffee! Vanilla lattes can sometimes be too sweet but this was perfect. We tried the pecan tart with berry jam, the Gregory cheese puff, and the kouign amann. All the pastries were great but the best was the kouign amann. They were able to get all the flaky and crispy layers, which is so difficult! Overall, highly recommend this cafe!"

404 Coffee

★★★★☆ 3.9 (34)

"I've been dying to check out this coffee shop. I love that everything is Atlanta inspired. I had the MLK strawberry peach matcha lemonade and a cinnamonbon. Hands down the best matcha I've had in Atlanta!!"

Waller's Coffee Shop

★★★★★ 4.6 (66) • $

"Fun little coffee spot. Plenty of drink options from coffee to specialty beverages. Prices are very reasonable. Several naked good options today. Tried the lemon chia scone which was rather pleasant. Also had a 20oz cold brew for 4.50. Surprisingly large place with a small stage where I assume performances take place. Service super friendly and prompt. Overall fun spot and miss these types of establishments."

Harbor Coffee

★★★★★ 4.7 (15)

"Got to check out harbor coffee at their pop up at full commission today! I believe they are at this location from Thursday - Sunday! We got the gingerbread latte and it was great! They have dairy or oat milk to choose from. The baristas are really nice as well."

Press and Grind

★★★★☆ 3.9 (163)

"Good food, good coffee, good smoothies. Location and Parking Located in VA highlands, parking is very limited. There is a parking lot in the back but it does fill up. Venue and Atmosphere Press and grind is a small shop but the tables are spaced out so you are never on top of anyone. There is plenty of natural light and several plugs for your laptop or other WFH technology. Service Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. Food and Beverages The grilled cheese sandwich is legit. I also had the green smoothie which was delicious and not overly sweet. They have many flavors of coffee syrups if you're like me and don't like the taste of the traditional coffee. Verdict I'll be back for sure, the cffe and smoothies under one roof are a winning combination."

Momo Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.3 (227) • $

"So good we ate here TWICE in one weekend. You could said we wanted mo mo ;) Okay... I'm done.A cute lil two-story cafe with both sweet & savory treats! I'm a big fan of Japanese-inspired anything including matcha drinks & desserts so this place was such a hit for me. Of course I got a matcha latte and my best friend tried out their Black Sesame latte. Both were great to warm us up on a chilly day. I can't remember exactly what bites we got but we definitely ordered off the brunch menu and also got a lil sweet treat to round out our bites here. All the food was so good but, of course, my phone had to eat first!"

Cafe Petit Four

★★★★☆ 3.6 (103) • $$

"Cafe Petit Four was rebranded from Hansel and Gretel, which my boyfriend and I frequented prior to the pandemic. The drink menu remained pretty similar. They now sell truffles, macarons, and piece cakes in addition to breads. They've set up more shelving space to accomodate for the new items they added to the storefront. However, most items are not labeled with the pricing, with some of the petit cakes starting at $3.50. Although I like the increased variety and the new concept of wanting to sell cute and yummy small dessert cakes, some of the desserts presented looked a bit sloppy and not super appealing. However, I would come back to get their coffee or their Korean breads."

Prevail Union ATL

★★★★☆ 4.2 (13)

"This is the second location of Prevail Union and the design is just as elegant, if not better, than the original! Things you should know:I. PARKINGThe cafe is on the first level of the Bryn House. You can park in the FREE parking garage by the cafe ~ within the apartment complex. II. SERVICE Timely. I like that they provide latte art! Makes the feel here more "fancy" to play along with the atmosphere. III. QUALITY We got a latte with strawberry syrup. To be honest, we couldn't taste the strawberry, so I don't personally find it worth the extra fee to add to your drink. IV. CAPACITYPlenty of available seating during a weekend, midday. I don't think this place is well discovered yet so the crowds are low!"

Refuge Coffee - Midtown

★★★★★ 4.6 (25)

"Cute little spot that's hidden but very close to a lot of places. They had pastries and snacks. Lots of coffee and drink options. Didn't wait long at all to get our drink. Minimal seating inside but there are a lot of spots to sit outside."

Java Lords

★★★★☆ 3.6 (87) • $

"I needed a location to meet with a colleague and what is a meeting without amazing coffee? During my search Java Lord popped up and offered hours that fit my needs. As such, let's talk about my recent visit. The location sits towards the rear of the high traffic area which is perfect for finding parking. Upon walking in there is an assortment of treats that capture your eye. The ambiance of the location is super chill and artsy. The paintings on the wall are not only amazing but they are for sale as well. Talk about a win win!Being this was my first time I wanted to go outside of my usual coffee order. I decided on the Coffee of the Day with a shot of Almond and Vanilla. The Murder Blend has a smooth Coffee taste. This is the perfect blend for someone (such as myself) who enjoys the authentic taste of coffee. As I love a good Dark Blend. This Medium/Dark Blend allows the roast flavor to be very evident. The flavor profile has a heavy body, and the flavor is prominent but isn't spicy and has the authentic bittersweet tang, subtle chocolate and caramel flavors, with hints of smokiness. Yeah! As you can see, this is a perfect coffee for any moment of the day... The flavor shots are strong which pair well with the heaviness of the Murder Blend. The young lady who helped me originally was nice, however, as she wasn't as much of a coffee drinker I was unable to get her take on any of the other blends. As such, I will be back again to be surprised by the daily blend. Overall, this location is great for a break from a busy day, a chance to meet with friends, or even a quick business conversation. All of the aforementioned will fit in this location with any blend of coffee."

The Cenacle

★★★★☆ 4.2 (237) • $$

"The Cenacle is a good little spot to get breakfast/brunch/lunch if you're in South Cobb. You can sit down or order to-go. Service was a bit slow (when we visited we were quick to be seated, but it took about 10 minutes for a server to come over and take our drink order), so just factor that in. This might be an ideal place to go when you aren't in a rush. The food was good once it arrived. Ordered a sandwich and it was tasty and generously portioned. The vibe of the space was relatively relaxed, the hostess was lovely. The server we had did seem a bit disinterested in serving us at the beginning, but she warmed up as the meal progressed."

Drip

★★★★☆ 4.2 (160) • $

"Nestled in Glenwood, this cafe is a delightful gem for coffee lovers. The baristas are not only friendly but also skilled, ensuring each cup is made with care. The cozy ambiance invites you to stay, especially if you're looking for a place to work or simply unwind. Their selection of sandwiches and baked goods is impressive, offering a tasty treat to accompany your coffee. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this cafe is worth a visit for a delightful experience."

TwoHa's Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.3 (167) • $$

"TwoHa's Café is a great spot for any occasion. My family and I often enjoy it for an after dinner dessert spot, but will often see people studying or hanging out with friends. I highly recommend their croffles with strawberry and Nutella as well as their yogurt drinks. Everything is good to share, reasonably priced and delicious!!"

Just Love Coffee Cafe - Atlanta Perimeter

★★★★☆ 4.3 (134) • $$

"Located in a pretty nice plaza with a good amount of parking within its own parking garage, this is such a cute little cafe!I love that there is a big waffle theme here and it makes for some unique dishes, like the womelette! The avocado toast seemed pretty plain and unassuming at first but the addition of the cheese really added a lot. I do wish it had a little more, like maybe an egg or something on top. And I loved the sausage egg and biscuit! The gravy was so good. And I love the texture of the biscuit after going through the waffle iron. The drinks were also really good! The sweet matcha really lived up to its name in terms of sweetness (without being too sickly sweet) but I wish there was more of a matcha taste."

Land of a Thousand Hills Coffee

★★★★☆ 4.1 (22)

"I was staying at the Hampton Inn Midtown in November 2023 and looking for coffee options around 5pm. Checked Yelp and found this delightful spot. If you're looking for high-quality coffee in a warm, bright space, this is it. The barista was friendly and said the drip coffee had recently run out. She offered to prepare a cafe Americano instead (and charge the lower price for the drip coffee). It was superb coffee and made me a loyal customer. I'm sad that I discovered this place toward the end of my visit to Atlanta. On my next trip to midtown, I will be sure to return! The only downside is that it's a little hidden from the street (i.e., the sign is tiny)."

Kupcakerie Grant Park

★★★★★ 4.8 (27)

"Gotta love Kupcakerie!I've been planning on visiting the new Kupcakerie location for months and I was so happy when I finally got the chance a few weeks ago. I'm so used to the East Point location, I was excited to visit the new Grant Park location, especially when I saw all of the new parking spaces. So much room! First impressions were great as when you first drive up you see the super cute, pink Kupcakerie cupcake and name on the exterior. There was some seating outside on one visit (when it wasn't so rainy in ATL) and the string lights were an added bonus for the vibes. This space is also offered for events and I could definitely imagine a super cute soiree happening in this cute area. Upon entry, I loved seeing the super cute pink couch in the corner, perfect seating for those who decide to check out one of the books from the bakery bookshelf. (Buy a book!) There's also a nice little office space that would be great for meetings or study groups while you enjoy the Kupcakerie treats. It's super quiet and the cashiers have all been friendly, fast and willing to share their personal recommendations. Kupcakerie offers about a dozen different cupcake flavors daily and I feel like every flavor is worth a try, lol. I don't truly love sweets, but I have cravings for a little sugar like anyone else, and their cupcakes are always worth it. (And pair well with wine!) If you're not on the hunt for cupcakes, you should check out the breakfast sandwiches, coffees, sandwiches/salads, etc. that they also offer.The strawberry Scarlet Letter and Yes, Pecan! are my faves. Yum!"

Morningbirds Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.6 (93)

"Morningbirds is a cute, well decorated brunch restaurant co-owned by Anthony Hamilton in the Roswell area. Everything is scratch made and delicious, especially the bananas foster pancake. ..Yummmmmyyyy!! This has to be the "BEST" pancake I've had yet.. so light and fluffy it wasn't like your traditional pancake mix, but more of a cake or doughnut batter.. either way, it was AMAZING.. service wasn't fast being that everything was cooked to order, which was okay, but still a little annoying. Especially if you're "HANGRY" like I was... LOL!I'm definitely a fan of Anthony Hamilton's music, but I'm not on board with the long wait time for food. I even overheard another patron saying their food took too long as well. I would definitely return for the pancakes alone and see if my next visit renders a different response in my review."

Green Beans ATL

★★★★★ 4.8 (9) • $$

"This is a great addition to the neighborhood! The coffee is fantastic. They roast in house. The ice coffee is strong and delicious and it's not even cold brew but I highly recommend. The staff are super friendly not to mention it has great vibes and some space to work."

The Salty Donut

★★★★☆ 4.2 (166) • $$

"YOU DRIVE ME GLAZY! Salty Donut, a pretty popular donut shop across the south/south west. Though it is a chain they are particular about the cities/states where their shops open. My partner and I will TRAVEL to a shop if needed. If that alone does not prove how good their donuts are then I don't know what will. We first were introduced to Salty down in Miami. But now as we've moved from FL we don't get to treat ourselves to these sweet treats as often as before. The first thing you need to know about The Salty is if you plan on going you need to arrive when they first open their doors. This is when you will get the best options. If you go later in the day there will not be much left. When we came into the Buckhead location we walked in and they only had one tray of donuts left. No matter what donut you get they will always be super sweet and super delicious. So if you want options then get there early, but if you don't care, then go whenever and there will be at lease one option. Service was quick and super easy. The donut they had on this occasion was the Cookie Monster donut. Which had a blue glaze. Cookie topping and filled with a cookies and cream style cream. I loved my experience here and definitely recommend stopping in for a sweet treat. Everyone needs a #treatyourself type day."

West Egg Café

★★★★☆ 3.8 (1798)

"I have dined here multiple times and had a great experience consistently. If you're coming for brunch on Sunday just know they don't serve alcohol until noon per state law! I've tried their challah french toast with berries, caramelized banana bread french toast, fried green tomatoes, and short rib hash. Every time I eat here the food has been delicious and they give generous portions. Things do get a little hectic there since it's a popular cafe so I recommend going early or after the brunch rush. This will definitely be a go-to breakfast spot for me!"

Bloom Coffee

★★★★★ 4.8 (80) • $$

"I visited Bloom a couple weekends ago to get some work done. It's a cute café with plenty of seating options. However, it can get a bit noisy, so it's not ideal if you're looking for a quiet spot. Service here is quick, and the pastries are excellent; on the sweeter side, but very tasty! I appreciate the variety of drink options, although none really stand out as exceptional to me. Most recently, I tried the Lavender Matcha ($5), which was mildly sweet with a subtle lavender flavor. My partner had the iced Pomegranate Green Tea ($3). While it looked appealing, it tasted more like water with just a hint of pomegranate. Overall, Bloom is a great spot for a casual visit, especially if you're looking for sweet treats."

Golden Drops Café

★★★★★ 4.6 (351) • $

"I found this place through Yelp and is a great local cafe. This place is pretty small on the inside but it has a spacious patio. They will bring the food to you and clean up after you if you Dine-in. I noticed a few people were using this place as an internet cafe.I ordered the Cuban sandwich, Golden Latte, and Caribbean beef empanada. The Cuban sandwich had a great taste but it did not come with any mustard on the side. The pork was pulled pork and the ham was deli sliced. Decent but not special. The Golden Latte is amazing. You can taste the cinnamon. The empanada was nicely fried and filled."

Crema Espresso Gourmet

★★★★☆ 4.3 (377) • $$

"The tarts (fruit and apple) are good here. I enjoyed the chia pudding. I do not recommend the chai latte. The chai flavors are barely there and it was somehow way too sweet. Honey latte was much better."
