Kenley's

I'm so glad I was introduced to this spot because it's so rich in history. I stopped by this place for breakfast after a coworker of mine suggested we go here. I had heard that the food was good so of course I had to find out myself. What caught my eye first was all the photos on the wall. There is a photo of the owner with celebrities covering the entire wall. I couldn't tell you how far the photos dated back but it just lets you know he's been running this business for a long time. Since it was breakfast I decided to keep it light and I ordered the chicken patty sandwich combo which is basically a chicken biscuit, hash brown and a drink ($3.50). For $3.50 you can't pass this up. Everything was made fresh or had been heated all morning so once I got my food it was hot. With your choice of a fountain drink this combo is super inexpensive but it fills you up without a doubt. If you're ever in the Ga State area specifically on Piedmont, please check them out.

I thought about posting twice so I could give them the 10-stars they are worth. Amazing simple cooked food. This is not commercialized, microwaved, and tossed on a plate. This is out of the vat, off the grill, and in the box type food. Simple and delicious. While here, look at the pictures and walk down memory lane. The people here are very friendly and connecting well with customers. This is true food, true people, true southern cooked love in the food for the customers. If you are in the ATL area, make a plan and swing through. If you are living in ATL area, I understand they cater, so hit them up. Any case, definitely a come to and come back place!

The meatloaf is the best I've ever had!! All the sides were seasoned to perfection! And the staff were super friendly!

They get 5 stars strictly for service. Came in here one day last week, for the first time, with a coworker. She introduced me to the ladies there and they make sure to call my name and are super friendly each time I've been there since. (Every day)I stop in for a Coke Zero every day and maybe a sausage for breakfast. They have every tons of options for breakfast from grits and eggs to hash and pancakes. The lunch food looks good and down home. I've had the baked wings and they were good. My co worker swears by their cheese grits. Can't wait to try everything!

Awww! Y'all, this place is adorable. Stumbled upon its existence thanks to a Groupon deal; realized it was right just about a mile from the office. So for lunch today, walked on over and joined a friend here. It's so sweet. And the people here are so nice!First: it's in a Georgia State University building - the old Citizens Trust Building - at the corner of John Wesley Dobbs & Piedmont Ave. I just mention this because it's easy to miss otherwise; you have to go into the building first and the cafe's off the lobby (it does not direct street entrance). Entrance to the lobby is on Piedmont Rd. Today there was a sign out front which made it a heckovalot easier to find too. ;-)Second: I went at lunch, so that's what this is about. [I hear they have lovely breakfast too!] Cold sandwiches, hot sandwiches, hot meats + sides (think "meat & 3") are the name of the game here. Plus all sorts of canned and bottled beverages, homemade punch and lemonade and sweet desserts.I had the Philly cheese steak, mashed potatoes (instead of fries) and an extra side of mac-n-cheese. The cheese steak was wonderful. My friend got the club (which was huge) with the same potatoes and corn. Corn and mashed potatoes were standard kind of cafeteria fare - nothing bad, but nothing to write home about. I'd go ahead and give them a pass next time. That mac-n-cheese though? I could have ate two helpings.But, seriously, the people are so nice and sweet. They must've known we were newbies (especially with our Groupon offer) but they didn't act all snooty or anything like some places do when you come in for the first time using those sorts of things. [y'all know what I'm talking about!] For that alone, I'd be back. Maybe to try that breakfast next time. FYI: There are also a bunch of snacks and stuff you can purchase here - bags of chips, bottles of sodas, etc. So if you're just walking around and looking for something like that, you can come grab something and pay for it at the cashier counter instead of going to the food counter.

Kenley's catering is the best. I ordered food to serve for my Neighbor:s family after attending visitation of a loved one who passed away. Order was for 25 people.Mr Kenley delivered and set up the food on time and food was warm and ready to serve.Very professional presentation and food was delicious!

The only positive thing that I can say about this catering experience was that the woman who eventually delivered the food was very professional, helpful, and kind. The owner however, should be ashamed of himself. We placed an order that was over $300 for a surprise breakfast for a member of our staff. It was supposed to be delivered at 830am. My assistant called that morning to ensure that her delivery order was on track, and they assured her that it was. At 850 we called again and once we were able to get a person and not a voicemail, the owner said he thought it was a pickup order and that it was on its way. Annoying, but no problem. Mistakes happen. I called again 20 minutes later. He assured me that the food would be hot and it was on its way. It turns out that the driver got lost and went to the wrong location after inadvertently putting the incorrect address in the gps. The food eventually arrived over an hour late. The staff member who the surprise was a for arrived before that because we couldn't stall her anymore. The food was not cold, but it was DEFINITELY not hot. The owner sent a text offering a 10% discount on a future order. Unacceptable. I called to speak with him about it and I am still disgusted about how completely unprofessional he was. He first tried to blame Uber Eats, until realizing that he had me confused with another client. (Which he would have known if he wouldn't have cut me off while I was attempting to speak.) He was rude and disrespectful throughout and flat out said I was lying about the temperature of the food because it was on heaters. I asked him to show the same respect to me as I was showing him, but he then started yelling and asking me what I wanted. At that point, I told him to forget it and we will just consider it a learning experience.It does not matter how good your food is if you cannot show more grace and understanding for your customers that what that man exhibited today. Particularly when WE DID NOTHING WRONG. I have NEVER been spoken to that way by any business owner. I highly recommend that you avoid this place at all costs. Unbelievable.

I ordered BBQ Chicken and it was sooooo spicy most guest couldn't eat it.The mac and cheese tasted like it was bought frozen, put in a deep pan, and cheese was added on top.The dressing tasted like it came straight from a box brand.The peach cobbler was a complete fail.The cabbage was great!

I would consider me and my co-workers regulars at this establishment. We went in for lunch ordered placed our orders. The issue came with the new cashier. I never felt so disrespected while checking out. While checking out my co-worker, asked for more salt. He was told by the cashier that it was some in the utensil packet and if you want more go to one of the tables and do it yourself. Then when i checked out with my combo order she totaled the order everything separately making the total like $3 more. I told her it was a combo and she told me to go talk to the manager. I went to go talk to the manager. When we came back i guess she realized the mistake before the manager came and changed it to the price to what it was suppose to be. She then said I don't know what he is talking about i even gave him the 10% discount. Tried to make me look stupid. Then went I asked for some ketchup she told me to go fill up some myself when they clearly had ketchup packets. I don't know if it was the end of her shift and ready to leave but she have to be more professional.

This food is delicious and affordable!!!!! Their breakfast is my favorite!!!! Buttery pancakes and delicious grits and sausage!
