“Had a wonderful experience with my husband at Bread & Butterfly this morning/afternoon for brunch! Food was amazing, atmosphere was inviting and service was impeccable!!! Highly recommend this restaurant and even got to talk directly with the owner/head chef Bill! If you are in the area or even if not make the drive, it will be well worth it!!! Neighborhood where it is located, Inman Park, is very nice as well with lots of walk-ability and less than 2 miles from downtown Atlanta, so make it a day or weekend trip.“

“Man.. This place is spectacular! Super close to the community of people, and quality food and service to top it off! My favorite part of life is finding local gems by luck, and this is one of them. The owners are so nice and they know how to run stuff! I’m adding this to my rotation. This time I got the whole wings and the steak wrap and a slice of vanilla pound cake. I WILL be back. ?“

“Love the food and the staff and Martin and the lavender latte. Sad the fabulous French toast didn’t come with REAL MAPLE SYRUP! Perhaps charge extra for customers who don’t want corn syrup/ fake maple syrup!“

“I was looking for a breakfast spot. Then, I came across Rosie's on Sylvan Road. I order salmon croquette egg and cheese sandwich on white toast. It was, hmmm, delicious. The bread was nicely grilled butter toasted, The salmon was cooked to perfection crisp and moist. Everything was outstanding.“

“Excellent service, amazing food!! If you’re in Atlanta I cannot recommend this spot enough, I’ve gotten the Breakfast bowl w/ potatoes and bacon, a cappuccino - and the most buttery and delightful biscuit I’ve had outside of Louisiana/Texas! My friend also got the catfish and grits, I got to try some - perfectly seasoned breading and amazing quality catfish & the grits were a 10/10 in both texture and flavor. Rosie’s knows what’s up and for my deep southern folk it’s a must stop breakfast spot if you’re here in Atlanta and missing home!“

“Amazing fresh smoothies and fruit cups. Great portion size and outstanding customer service“

“Absolutely so cute! Very tasty treats. Perfect lunch spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Also, easy for a walk to when in Grant Park or the zoo.“

“My first time here in the state. We been all over to the various places to eat and dine. I am a very good cook, pickie, love it fresh with quality appearance ? Hands down, this was an excellent choice for in the most inconspicuous location. THANK “

“Accidentally made it up here on Friday of Dragon Con. The ladies at the top of the escalator very kindly texted the owner, who was in another building, to let him know he had customers, and he came right over, made our drinks to order, including adjusting mine to a comfortable temp for my sore tooth. Service deserves 10 stars, and it was a very tasty latte, too.“

“The service here was amazing quickly greeted and seated on a Sunday for brunch top tier warm welcomes great recommendations and cocktails the food fresh and fulfilling 10/10 and will be going back

“On a mission to have breakfast today, without waiting in a long line, I stumbled on a jewel in the former location of soul food restaurants, Deacon Burton’s/Son’s Place in Inman Park. The Breakfast Burrito, Salmon on Toast, champagne, etc., were delicious and Complimentary!! Unbeknown to us, restaurant was having a “private intro” to the community and a staff training event. Melanie (Owner/Host) welcomed us in like we were family. Her husband Micheal was so excited to hear about my many visits to Deacon Burton’s. Can’t wait to go back. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“10 out of 10!!!! My family and I will intentionally support this great business, monthly!“

“We stayed at an Airbnb close by and the host recommended a few places to check out. This was one of them. Great little spot. I love how it feels cozy and welcoming. Friendly staff members and great selections of food and drinks! They also have outdoor seating, dog area, and cocktail/beer menu. Wonderful variety for everyone. Recommend: carnitas hashbrown bowl & the everything bagel holtzclaw.

“I went here twice in the same week to see if my experience would change the 2nd time around. Both times that I went, I ordered the chicken & waffle and was told that my wait would be about 10-15 minutes. I would end up waiting closer to the 40-50 minute mark both times, just for a single waffle and piece of chicken. It also seemed like people who ordered after me all got their food before I did. The food itself was really good so I’d still give it four stars, but I wouldn’t go here if you’re looking for a quick bite to eat.“

“If you’re looking for a way to make your dollars count, let me introduce (or reintroduce) you to DCafe & Catering. This isn’t just a business—it’s a bold commitment to community. The owner moved her location on purpose to support the very people who’ve invested in the area. She decided her rent should go into the hands of the community rather than faceless landlords. That’s the kind of intentionality and integrity we need to rally around!

Now, let’s talk about the vibe. DCafe isn’t just a place to grab a bite—it’s cozy and welcoming, a space where you can slow down, enjoy the warm atmosphere, and connect. Whether you’re meeting up with friends, bringing family, or just indulging in some quiet time, the space wraps you in comfort and care.

And the food? Sunday brunch is a must. I indulged in their omelette and chicken & waffles. The omelette was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The chicken? Freshly fried, golden, crispy. The waffle was good, though I would’ve loved some maple syrup, but no biggie—it was still delicious.

Supporting DCafe is about more than great food and a cozy space (though they offer both in spades). It’s about standing with a business that’s standing with us. Let’s show DCafe the same love and loyalty they’re pouring into the community.

Check them out —you won’t regret it!!“

“Love the patio for coffee in the morning, drinks in the evening are very nice.“

“Best mocha!!!!! Had a very stressful day, and decided to treat myself with a fancy coffee. The lovely people behind the counter were so nice, especially the lady who recommended the best mocha, cookie butter, I think she said, and it was absolute perfection! ?? Chef's kiss!!! Thank you so much for your good energy and making my day so much better! ❤️ I visited Saturday, October 5th, 2024 around 4pm.“

“The service was stellar! The gentleman preparing the food was extraordinarily patient, going above and beyond to ensure that all of my questions were answered and that I was comfortable with my food choices. He seemed to truly care.

Food was great! I appreciated the many organic ingredients and the plethora of clean menu options. Would have loved more fruit in my acai bowl but the granola made up for it. Egg sandwich was good but would have been better hot.

I could see myself becoming a regular here!“

“We came in right at closing and we were still welcomed in and served even thought both employees were tired and closing up the shop. I hope you recognize them“

“I ordered a devil's food cake for my husband's birthday last week and Yamesia absolutlely delivered. I had a hard time finding a baker who knew what a devil's food cake was. Not the case with Yamesia. The cake was delicious, moist with true deep chocolate flavor. The icing was light and not overly sweet. We had a sheet cake and usually there is cake left over at most of the parties I have attended in the last few years. This is my forever cake artist, decorator and baker. Kudos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Came here to see Stacey Abrams in conversation with Charlemagne and 21 Savage. I rlly enjoyed the venue. I will definitely be back to check out their shops and the area. it was super easy to navigate, had ample parking, and didn’t feel overly crowded. The space would be an amazing alternative for some of the other spots events normally take place at in Atlanta.“

“Passing Through Or Coming To ATL Don’t Leave With Out Stopping By N Getting Yourself A Pie. Can’t Say Enough Of Friendly staff, The Service, Deliciousness Like None Other, And The Vibe. An Experience For Sure. Had To Order Another To Take On My Ride Back Home To Sunshine State. I“

“Nice little place inside the Grant Park Market. The market has a loyalty program and after so many dollars in purchases, you can redeem your points for a percentage off your groceries or for items on the Gather menu. You order a the counter and they bring the food out to you. I got the steak & cheese bagel with my points and also coffee, waffle and chicken sausage. All the food was delicious and the service was wonderful. I’ll be heading back to try some of the lunch items.“

“While on a business trip to Atlanta I happened on this cozy little restaurant. So glad that I did. Great food & even better prices. Staff was courteous & polite. I think in a week's time I may have visited on at least 4 different occasions. Not one time was I ever disappointed. Best time is during lunch.“

“I’ve been coming to Aurora since around 2004 (Mathis, James, Amanda era) when there was another location in Virginia Highlands.

It was so cool to see James still at the helm and still geeking out on coffee. They have never once disappointed. The consistency and genius behind the roasting and dialing-in each day is, hands down, the best coffee in Atlanta. I’d even argue it’s the best in the country.

Since I now live in California, I’m always nervous to go back because I don’t think I could handle it if they ever dropped in quality. They’ve managed to stay relevant despite all the sugary competition.

This coffee brings me so much joy. As I sat on the patio, I remembered the mid-2000’s guitar jams I would have on the patio when L5P was less yuppie and more hippy/hipster.

Atlanta, please don’t take this gem for granted. It’s gritty, quirky and the baristas have always had a witty attitude. These guys make coffee-making look easy but it’s not.

I typically go for either a shot or an iced almond latte. Both are excellent. Aurora’s beans have a velvety, chocolaty richness with the perfect amount of acidity that makes it seem like you’re sipping on a sacred liquid.“

“My first time coming in. First, let me say when you first walk in, the energy is beautiful. Miss Joana welcomes you in with her beautiful smile and amazing personality. She introduced me to the smoothies and teas and helped me with which one would fit best for my needs for the day. My smoothie taste wonderful. I got the strawberry cheesecake smoothie. I’m definitely a regular customer. Much love….Tokyo.“

“This is a cute spot to grab breakfast or coffee downtown, I ordered a caramel cappuccino with extra sweet and my drink even spilled over, LOL, the waitress legit gave me a overflowing cup with half my coffee spilt. Other than that, the omelette tastes good. Remember to park in the garage to get it validated.“

“My wife and I celebrated her birthday at Ten ATL on Monday, July 31st. The Greatest live music we have experienced in Atlanta. Staff is very friendly and customer service was outstanding. Looking forward to our next Monday night visit..“

“I came to Atlanta to visit my Son this weekend, wanted breakfast, he suggested Yummies Cafe...OMG, they did not disappoint, the staff was friendly, the food delicious. I got 2 pancakes/2 salmon croquettes they were ssssoooo good, my Son got the works (build your own), so much food we had to take home.. When I come back to visit, I definitely will visit again, will try other foods they serve besides breakfast.“

“Visited as part of our trip to Atlanta and sat at the bar. The cocktails were fantastic, the atmosphere was brilliant and Carlos was an excellent bartender, he took the time to chat with us and he knew his drinks and made/suggested really nice cocktails.“

“This place is really cozy. The barista was friendly and answered all my questions. The coffee beans are light roast but they do have a dark roast pour over. Parking is in the garage down the road. They've got 3 different espresso roasts: regular, half caff, and decaf. We ordered a plain latte and a drip. Both were very good. One of the best lattes I've had. The vibe is so comfy in there. Exposed brick, taxidermy displays and couches. They also had some delicious looking pastries.“

“Rising Roll has been a good to option for me in the downtown area. It’s very healthy and fresh (which is a great bonus as options for this are limited in this area of town).

The staff is always friendly and extremely helpful.

The store is detailed oriented and does great at meeting dietary recommendations.

I use them for multiple business meetings and they have not disappointed.

If you need a delivery order, this has to be done days in advance with catering, but the store is usually quick to accommodate pickup orders.

The only feedback is sometimes the website doesn’t have all the options listed, but you can call the store and they will help you with processing (which usually is to order a similar item and put the name of the actual item you are seeking to order).“

“Ordered for my daughters first birthday. the cupcakes and cake were BEAUTIFUL! Everyone said best cupcakes they ever had. icing is incredible. I will definitely be calling again and my friends wanted your name. Thank you so much. You made our party a hit and the delivery was so smooth. Thank you so much!!“

“Got the brisket Quesadilla with Brussel sprouts. The sprouts stole the show! The quesadilla had a very strong bacon flavor which, they cannot remove the bacon even if you ask as it is pre-prepared. Bottles of water are $4. No water cup option. Good place if you’re at the mart and in a pinch!“

“Delicious French Classics abs an amazing wine selection. ❤️❤️❤️“

“A great place for Home cooking and be filled up!!!“

“Excellent- fresh ingredients and phenomenal blend of flavors.“

“The best of the best! Healthy & Fresh EVERYTHING!“

“Went for the team's Happy Hour. We were received and taken care of by Rony and Melissa. Rony was constantly checking, giving enough time to order. He even gave us a few recommendations. Melissa was cordial and friendly.

Service is quick. Tacos were ok. Corn ribs - few had more salt than required.

While walking across for rest rooms, be mindful of slight un even slopes at certain places.

Parking available on the road, back of the restaurant near BodyWorks.

Vegetarian options: Few options“

“I had the jerk chicken and vegetable rice food was good but the price is too much“

“I didn't eat here. It was taken over by FOX for filming of The Resident. I was playing a hospital Administrator. At the time, this was one of the best sets to work on. The Resident was one of the best productions to work for. High Café is a great space to work in.“

“Greats coffee spot off the beaten path. For those diehard coffee enthusiasts, it kind of reminds me of the days when Brother Moto coffee shop was open. Would recommend for a quick grab. Didn’t get to try the food. They typically are out by about 2, so I’ve heard.“
