The 5 Spot Cafe

My family and I have had the privilege of knowing about this place since the OG location in Lawrenceville. This Mother’s Day weekend I went twice at the new location in Buford and it’s the same great atmosphere, wonderful food, and even some of the same waiting staff! The food was absolutely amazing and they were extremely accommodating to my dietary restrictions (gluten free). The food was absolutely amazing ! The appetizer of bacon wrapped plantains are to die for! On day one I had the Denver omelette with the gluten free bread and potatoes with onions and peppers. The omelette was fluffy and perfectly filled with toppings. On day two I ordered the San Francisco burger with a gluten free bun with fries. The burger was cooked exactly to the temperature I asked, the bacon was the perfect amount of crisp, and the avocado was fresh! If you are celiac or gluten intolerant this place is for you! What a delicious and safe place for the community with health issues! Thank you 5 Spot!

We have been to 5 spot many times. In the old location and now twice in the new location. We have never been disappointed. We went for the Easter menu today. Food was delicious and service was great. We also look forward to eating here!

Fabulous for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Staff is excellent — they work as a team to make sure your meal is a great experience! Drinks refilled… condiments brought to your table… food is always hot and delicious!

Been there twice now, great food and great service. Is becoming our new favorite spot!!

Love this place! Friendly staff & delicious food no matter the time of day! Bacon wrapped plantains are to die for also!

I had lunch here last week and enjoyed their Reuben sandwich. This is a slightly lighter version of a Reuben. Sometimes you just want the flavor of a Reuben, but not all the bulk of a sandwich that is so heavy that you feel like taking a nap afterwards. The restaurant has a more extensive menu variety than I had expected. I will be back to try their breakfast as well as other items.

Super French Toast and my wife loved her Rueben sandwich.

We were super excited for something new to come into our area. Service was great, atmosphere is cute and clean, food was good, but a simple lunch was over $40 for 2 ($50 with a 20% tip). A single slice of corn beef was $4.25. Prices are a bit too steep to take a family and they don’t show them on the menu (you can scan a QR code to view them on your phone…).

First time and won't be our last. Delicious Tuscan chicken sandwich and Caesar salad with salmon. Our server Hunter was so friendly and helpful with menu suggestions. Great atmosphere.

I've been waiting for this place to open for a while. They're on week one of being open, and I finally got to come in. I was really hoping that they would have some really good fried chicken. Or some good southern fried catfish. They don't, and I was kind of a little sad. :-( Then I looked at their menu closely and realized they had a lot of yummy sounding things on the menu. The server (Hunter) was amazing and recommended a burger. I got the mushroom cheese Swiss burger, and all I can say is it's maybe the best burger I've ever had! The meat is amazing in size, which is amazing. I am so impressed with the service and the food that I will definitely be back!

Oh, and apparently, they're going to have a full bar in one week for those folks who like to have shots of tequila at 8:00 a.m. in the morning.

And lastly, the story is pretty amazing, too!

Menu didn't have prices, but brunch for 3 was about 40$. Very nice young man took care of us. Good coffee! I'd go back for sure

I really wanted to like this place and food was good but waaay too expensive for what you get. I should have known when the menu didn’t have any prices. That should have been a red flag and I think that’s a little fishy if you ask me. Imagine paying $4 for a soda or $15.99 for 2 pieces of French toast, eggs and 2 strips of bacon. Very disappointed and won’t be back.

This place is the best! The bacon wrapped plantains are delicious and my favorite is the tomato basil soup!

We always feel like family when we eat here. Their staff (at their old location as well as at their new location) have always been so friendly and polite! We are so glad you all finally opened!
