Fast and friendly service in a very nice atmosphere. I was able to place an order to go very easily and the very friendly host gave recommendations and perfectly explained what the restaurant was all about because it was my first visit. The food came out incredibly fast, hot, and fresh. The Thai chicken wrap was a unique and flavorful option.

The kids in the neighboring booth were recreating the last FIFA World cup, but their antics and their inattentive parents don't figure into my two star review.

The chili omelet was served without any flavor. Even the home fries were unseasoned. Poor service is unfortunate. Bland food is inexcusable. Worse is when the coffee is terrible, too.

Sort of an indie take on IHOP. Food was okay (although why in the world someone would serve a ciabatta sandwich as sliced bread instead of a ciabatta bun is beyond me), service was decent. Atmosphere, although not super important, was strange. There's a giant bar shoehorned into the front of what feels like retail space with a bunch of booths in it. Definitely not the same vibe as the original in Lawrencville.

We had a great Sunday morning visit to The 5 Spot Cafe in Buford. Even though the restaurant was nearly full, we were seated right away. Our server, Trish, greeted us with a smile and took excellent care of us the entire time—attentive, friendly, and always on top of things.

The food was just as impressive. The Cinnamon Pecan French Toast was perfectly crispy on the outside, loaded with cinnamon flavor, and absolutely delicious. The sausage patties were also a standout. I tried the Chili Omelette, which was hearty and filled with their house-made bison chili. It had a subtle sweetness, wasn’t overly spicy, and paired beautifully with the fluffy omelette. The potatoes with sautéed peppers and onions were full of flavor, and the crunch drop biscuit tied everything together.

We left full, happy, and already planning our return. A fantastic spot for breakfast or brunch in Buford!

Surprising little hidden gem. Food and cocktails were awesome, tried everything from eggs to meatloaf and it was all great. Staff is super friendly and it's family-owned. Will definitely be making this a new favorite spot.

Daughters had Strawberry Cream Cheese GLUTEN FREE French toast and LOVED it. They have so many gluten free options. We didn’t know about this hidden gem but I’m so excited we found something so close to home! I had the Mushroom, Bacon, Brie Burger and WOW! It was amazing and decadent. I can’t wait to try more things with the family!

It was very clean, service was friendly and everything was surprisingly quick for being so fresh and hot!

I've been several times. The wait staff has been very friendly. The food has been excellent each time. No one makes meatloaf like my mom used to, but their's is the first good substitute that I have found. The music is mostly 80s alternative and pleasantly nostalgic.

Disappointing. Had breakfast in an earlier visit. Very good. Had lunch this visit. Not so good.

The 5 Spot Cafe has moved from Lawrenceville to their new location in Buford. It took us awhile to catch up with them. Love the new location! Same great service, food was out fast and was delicious!
