50 Best Cafes near Doraville

“Simple breakfast and great coffee drinks!“

“I stopped in to grab some pastries as a gift. Was surprised to see they had hot food. The cashier told me they had tacos and papusas. Say less. I got three papusas and 2 beautiful tacos. They were made from scratch so the wait was a bit long for the food. They communicated that and were apologetic.“

“I absolutely love sweet hut! Their variety of buns is extensive and they are all delicious! I'm not a huge fan of boba all though it is known for that and I hear it's delicious, my favorite is the lychee slush and pretty much any of their buns. I tried the new Cromboloni in Chocolate and I highly recommend--absolutely delicious and it brings me back to nutella crepes in paris. Definitely always recommend sweet hut and check out their new crombolonis for sure.“

“Café Petit Four in Doraville is an absolute treasure! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The pastries and desserts are simply heavenly—each one is beautifully crafted and full of flavor. Their croissants are perfectly flaky, and the petit fours are a must-try!

The coffee is excellent too, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing break or catching up with friends. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall charm of the place. If you’re in the area, don’t miss out on this delightful café!“

“Honestly I’m not worried about people smoking inside. They have a sign on the door that warns you. Anyway, great Vietnamese coffee and (when I was there) free sweet tea came with it. So we got 4 drinks for $8. Not too bad.Note that they only take cash! Remember to bring it!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Amazing dining experience and special treatment by the staff - fabulous Anniversary dinner!“

“1st time Really Good. Next time will try the sandwiches.“

“Visited here in early December from out-of-state - the atmosphere and food are exceptional. I spent quite a bit of time just roaming around the cafe looking at all the beautiful antiques lovingly preserved. A trip back in time for me!“

“If you want a cafe where you can talk with a friend for hours, or lock in to a serious study session, this is the place. The vibe is perfect. They have many power outlets for laptops. (So important for studying!) And the seats are reasonably comfortable.

Their bakery items are good for snacking / grazing. Their drink focus is coffee more than bubble tea, tho they have recently started stocking some boba and slush drinks, I think.

Parking is easy. Prices are good. What are you waiting for?“

“I’ve been here a few times and the selections, vibes, and flavors are excellent. I did however want to complain that I was just there on a Saturday afternoon when it was actually not bust at all. The barista was taking to the side with what I thought was a customer. I put in my order easily at the kiosk and went to go walk around. I did a lap or so and realized the customer barista was taking to were friends of his. He definitely greeted me and saw me enter my order and just continued chatting with his friends. I felt weird to confront him and just waited. I walked over when I finally saw him start to make drinks as his friends left to get food next door. Only to find that he had just been making drinks for his friends. He apologized for the wait, but honestly it was a terribly service experience and felt really ignored. Next time I’m in the area I’m just going to go to Banjo Coffee instead.“

“Great place to get a delicious cup of coffee. They mix up their drip brews so it’s always different, but always awesome.“

“10/10 recommend. Loved the atmosphere and the food was amazing! Will be back.“

“Love the service and quality of the food“

“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.“

“This place is a very special little gem with amazing service and fantastic coffee. The opposite of a chain coffee shop, if you want a place that feels like home in every way (except they make drinks and pastries much better than you can at home) - this should be your regular spot to escape. We have loved LOTH for more than ten years and made a special request of them this week. They not only happily agreed to help us out, but Gabe and Rachel went above and beyond to make it a truly magical experience for all involved. I can't say enough good things about this sweet place - thank you from the bottom of our hearts!“

“Oh my gosh Teddy's house's Kagels are SOO good. I got the Kagels set A which features your choice of k-bagel, a soup and an Americano. All for like $15 in total. Amazing, Amazing, Amazing garlic Kagel. It's so garlicky and good I died and came back. ?“

“Oohh la la, this brunch bakery c'est magnifique! It's pricey but so delicious. Genuine taste of France with simple but outstanding ingredients. We had the croque madame and the smoked salmon tartine, with and extra egg and side banquette for our pups. The back patio is pup friendly!“

“De très bons petits plats, bien préparés. Très bon accueil. Merci.“

“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. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“I love this place! Fresh ingredients is their difference from other bubble tea places“

“Chill work environment w/lots of great goodies to partake!“

“I stumbled upon this place when I was walking my dog and it’s so cute!!! The staff is super friendly, it’s much bigger than it looks! They have an entire patio in the back! I’m not super big on coffee but I tried something sweet and it was so good!! They have several options to drink and their tea is amazing !!!! They have a full menu the food is so good! I definitely will be back it’s an amazing place to catch up with a friend or knock out some work.“

“This place is a hidden gem loacted in an office building. The owner is a cute couple and you can tell it's a family operated business. They were patient with me while I was going through the menu. Their smile just made my day.

The food was delicious. I had a chicken salad wrap and a salad. Ingredients were so fresh!

I was surprised at the price and the quality of the food.

I stopped by after googling this place. From now on count me in as a regular. I'll definitely be back!“

“A wonderful find. The food is delicious and the staff is wonderful. Unique and a great location. Enjoy!“

“Every time I go here I see someone I know… Gwinnett mfs mannn..
Nah but seriously the vibes are amazing and there’s a reason it is poppin right now. Only downside is that I would say the food is very overpriced. I would stick to the desserts and drinks.“

“We recently moved to Atlanta and were extremely disappointed in the coffee options near us. That disappointment faded recently when Sidecar opened. Their coffee is AMAZING and well worth the minor detour on my way to work. It’s also a great option if you’re looking for a place to hang out for a bit and get some work done.“

“We ordered the lamb meatballs, duck confit, and beef Bolognese. All were outstanding, but the duck and its pairings were perfection. We didn’t mention that it was my birthday until we were getting our check. Our waiter went above and beyond and gave us three glasses of champagne and two free desserts! The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and kind. The wine list is to die for! I highly recommend.

Dietary restrictions: They asked about food allergies and were able to accommodate our nut allergy. I assume they would be able to accommodate almost anything based on their knowledge of food.“

“The environment and everything else are pretty good!“

“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!“

“Great bagels and food but check your order before leaving with pick up orders. We ordered a dozen bagels. When we got home found order missing 3 everything bagels, and 2 Asiago where cheddar 🙁“

“Coffee is good and service very friendly (altho a bit expensive). The problem is the parking though. I entered the validation code but got a letter a week later demanding I pay $87 as a fine for not paying parking. First the validation didn’t work. Second I will not return to any of that retail if that’s what the parking lot tries to extort from you for if someone does make a legit mistake and not pay. Places like the Battery, Avalon and Atlantic Station don’t do that. Even the city of Atlanta parking ticket is less. It’s sad as I like a lot of the restaurants there. But enforcing that kind of parking ran me off. Silly.“

“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“

“If you are seeing this people, then there are 2 Bismillah cafes beside each other and people seem to be confusing them both up. I am writing the review for the smaller 1 storied bismillah cafe.

It looks deceiving as it is small and shabby and has a store on the other side of the wall. This small cafe is run by a Bangladeshi man and the guy is good. The food is even better.

I ordered 2 lamb shanks and 2 chicken samosas and it came out to 37 dollars with tax. The lamb shank was mind blowing, it was just too good. I told him to make it extra spicy and the Indian in me just loved it.

I am going back again once I have enough money and have worked out enough so that it would be like a reward for me.“

“It is so cheery in there. They have ALOT of great menu items. If you are looking for a cafe where you can relax or study while enjoying a treat Snowy roll is the place for you“

“I needed a last-minute cake, something special, and most bakeries close early. So I headed over to the Queen of Sheba, which google maps promised would have cakes until 8. But they didn't have the flavor requested! Disaster. A customer said tiramisu was a house specialty, and the young lady behind the counter agreed that it was her favorite. Even though tiramisu is a gamble with a new crowd, I went for it. It was one of the most delicious, perfect cakes I've ever had. That any of us had ever had. It's what all other tiramisu wishes it could be. Good price, too. I 100% will get my next cake there.“

“I’m so happy that i found this place near my house, I’ve never seen a Café like this before! Very nice people even though I’m not from their country but everyone were so nice the owner himself came and welcomed us the food was delicious this is just the perfect place.. may Allah SWT bless you with more success 🌸🌸“

“Nice place good food great service“

“Award winning coffee made by award winning people. Support small business, and tell a friend. Thank you everyone for your continued support of our Veterans.“

“Didn’t buy food, just a vanilla latte! It was my first time and the blonde lady at the counter was so lovely explaining how to choose what works for you since I don’t know coffee. I observed her appeasing someone who was not happy and wouldn’t even make eye contact - so rude! She bought him a pastry with her own money to make his day better and the guy didn’t say thank you at all just left in a huff. I can tell their baristas try to care for their guests.“

“Just tried this place for the first time today. I got an Iced London Fog, Double Shot of Espresso, and a Mocha Bun. Everything was exceptional! Very inviting atmosphere and overall a quiet place to enjoy a drink and work.

Parking: Lots of parking.

Kid-friendliness: Drinks that kids would like.“

“We have some of the whole bean coffee and find it so smooth! Looking at buying more!!“

“Great restaurants in Decatur and this one is at the top. The food is fantastic as is the service. We took a couple from New Orleans to have lunch there and they raved about it.“

“Stumbled upon this restaurant after looking for something nearby that was open late so I could eat and get some work done. It definitely was not a regular restaurant, I think it gave more of a lounge vibe, I got my work done anyway. The food was great. The Braised whole fish was enough for 2 and I ate it all lol. The rice I had was jollof she said, I've had jollof many times and I'm also a Chef, trust me when I say this rice was top tier, not sure if they have it everyday because I saw something else in the other picture reviews. The music definitely made me stay longer than I generally would have at the bar. Congratulations to the restaurant owners on their new journey, you have gained a new customer. Although I'm from the Caribbean, I'm extremely happy to see some more diverse options in this area! God Bless.“

“The best! Most delicious! Try a Rachel Panda bear!!!“

“Very pleasant atmosphere very friendly staff“

“The SWEETEST lady works the front counter (owner). She is from Busan so her accent is cute and she is so friendly. The Bingsoo is refreshing and not overly sweet. Good portions and fair price.
They have mini boonguhbbang (taiyaki ). Love this little spot!“

“Ok stop!!? this was great!! Love love the atmosphere! Great service..but that’s not all. The food was amazing..from the meatballs to the pasta!! THE PASTA felt like it was homemade! I would recommend this place if you are in the area! There is a paid parking lot steps away..“
