Victory Coffee & Calamity

VICTORY COFFEE & CALAMITY IS NOW STEREO, I believe? But I guess time will tell once the page gets added and updated? But until then, this review is for Victory Coffee & Calamity which is the dog friendly coffee shop I've always needed. The baristas are overall pretty friendly, especially toward my pup, which I don't usually find in the snootier hipster coffee shops these days. They sometimes have offered dog treats to my pup - but really she just wants their undivided human attention. And belly rubs. The menu is pretty straightforward, no "fancy" coffee drinks here. But I do love to order a lavender latte whenever I see it on the menu and they do it perfectly, iced or hot! I've had one "bad" experience where I spilled hot latte all over myself thanks to my overexcited dog while walking back to my table. Not a single barista cared that I spilled scalding latte on myself and I had to ask them for paper towels to wipe the floor myself. I'm just hoping it's because they didn't even notice it happened in the first place. But I think that was also because one barista went to the back and one was on their phone. To be fair, I don't think I've seen them working there again since then. Good riddance. My complaint is that it's not closer to me ugh! And the parking out front is strictly for 15 minutes at a time only - be sure to park next door at their shared parking lot if you're staying longer than 15 minutes. On the search for dog friendly coffee shops, this one is 100% the best in Atlanta!

The low reviews for this place are confusing.Cuban coffee was perfect as was my wife's oat latte. I'm not expecting to become best friends with my barista, so service was perfectly acceptable and prompt.The bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit is phenomenal - pre-packaged or not. Came out hot and fresh with plenty of flavor and size. Seating is communal and plentiful with individual tables outside or on the courtyard (which connects to more parking through the courtyard for those concerned about limited spaces out front). I love the aesthetic of this place - industrial, clean, and interesting items for sale.Definitely plenty of gigworkers and a couple of gamers present, so I assume their WiFi is on point. I'd come here to study or chill if the opportunity were to present itself.Pricing is on par for a good cup of coffee, and their coffee is very good.5/5 one of our go-to spots

Came in for breakfast yesterday around 9:15. It was a bit tricky to find parking - their tiny lot out front was full and the other lot was also full. But we finally found a spot as someone was leaving. There wasn't a line when we arrived. We tried to order the biscuit Sammie's - they were out of the bacon egg and cheese biscuit. They only had one sausage egg and cheese left, so we got that and had to settle with the egg and cheese. I guess you gotta get there early. We also each got a vanilla latte with oat milk. The Biscuit sandwiches were tasty. I had the sausage egg and cheese one. It was a good serving! Very cheesy and delicious. I've gotten the coffee here before so I knew it was good. Overall a yummy spot and a biscuit worth trying!

This is a cool spot with a nice atmosphere. Definitely loved the indoor and outdoor seating. I got a matcha latte. It was good, but definitely pricier than I was expecting!

Great open space, perfect for working or a cute catch-up session with a friend. Workers there are hella sweet and coffee quality was pretty standard! Parking right out front is limited so I suggest aiming for the lot on the other side of Lloyd's and save yourself the headache of merging back onto Dekalb Ave.

The drip coffee tastes like a $2.50 coffee "should" taste. Cheap. The customer service was subpar with 2 sales associates and I was the only customer in line. The staff was more preoccupied with their non paying customers/friends at the bar...

One of my favorite coffee shops in Atlanta. Such good craft and quality. But they don't have a lot of table space to do work (so great for a catch up with a friend or to-go cup). Also, in a lovely shopping area where you can sit outside or wander to the gluten free bakery next door for a treat.

Coffee is delicious. I've been called a coffee snob of late, so keep that in mind. The cortado was velvety smooth, rich and a real treat. Drip coffee was bold today which was pleasant. Wife's cappuccino was "delicious!". Her words. Staff was very friendly and professional. Yes - parking is difficult but it's a neighborhood place, which leads me to believe they're helping the environment: go for a stroll and get some great coffee! 4 STARS because I have to believe now that a 5-STAR coffee shop is somewhere in Thailand or Paris that I haven't visited yet. Oh - and they were playing The Smiths when we walked in. C'mon man.

The egg and cheese biscuit was so melty, buttery, and good. The bevs are a little pricey for the size, but tasted great.

I come here 2x a week so obviously I like this place haha. Very cool old school sports vibe ... lots of comfy chairs and places to do work. They also give you your drinks in a glass if you stay there for which I love. And I've tried a variety of items on the menu which I'm going to rate:Iced latte: solid latte, kinda wish there was more espresso tho but I guess I could ask for a double- w lavender: fire! - w caramel: good thought w the real caramel but it won't blend into my iced latte- seasonal fall latte: yummy! And good sweet treatIced chai: fire!- w espresso: one of my favorite dirty chais in the cityIced matcha: don't get, not blended properlyBEC biscuit: really yummy! I stan coffee shops that serve actual food
