50 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Smyrna

“Kim was our waitress. She provided excellent service. She was friendly, prompt and checked in with us to see if there was anything we needed. She would do well at any level of restaurant. I know that here in Georgia small eateries pay only $2 to $3 dollars an hour. That means the service people really rely on tips to make ends meet. I noticed that a lot of people do not tip. Being a Californian, tipping is automatically done with the amount depending on the quality of service. Kim would do really well if she was at a prestigious restaurant.“

Maple Street Biscuit Company on Barrett is hands down one of the best places I’ve ever visited, and it deserves every bit of recognition it gets. From the moment I walked through the door, I was welcomed with warm smiles, genuine hospitality, and a level of customer service that is rare to find nowadays. The staff here are not only friendly but also attentive, professional, and truly make you feel like you’re part of their family.

The atmosphere inside is just as inviting — clean, comfortable, and filled with positive energy. Whether you’re grabbing a quick breakfast, sitting down for brunch, or just stopping in for a coffee, this location makes the experience something special.

The food? Absolutely incredible. The biscuits are fresh, fluffy, and cooked to perfection, paired with flavors that are both comforting and memorable. Every bite feels like it’s made with love and care, and you can taste the quality in everything that comes out of the kitchen.

What stood out the most to me, though, was the way the staff went above and beyond to make sure my visit was perfect. That kind of service is what keeps people coming back. As someone who values respect and community, I can’t thank them enough for the way they treat their guests.

I want to especially recommend this spot to my fellow Military members and First Responders. Maple Street Biscuit Company on Barrett is a place that will truly make you feel appreciated, welcomed, and at home. It’s not just a restaurant — it’s a reminder of what great customer service and genuine hospitality look like.

Highly, highly recommended. If you haven’t been here yet, do yourself a favor and stop by — you’ll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit“

“The only waffle house i know if that has consistently great service and staff. Me and my boys are always excited to go. They often leave with some sort of treat or hat. Shout out to AJ but really the entire crew makes the environment a pleasant one 🙏“

“Fast Hot Meal. Coffee is great 👍“

“Being going there since 2013!“

“Our server, Emma did an amazing job. The serving size was big and tasty“

“Service was great. And hostess was very kind“

“love it, great food, great service, southern hospitality“

“Always a pleasure to eat there!“

“Best waffle House around!!
Super clean, friendly and attentive staff who truly seem to enjoy making customers
happy, food cooked perfect and I am one who sometimes has to request some changes to make it how I want it and sometimes that irritates cooks- so refreshing when it doesnt. Even the outside was clean and had picnic tables if prefer your take out outside to enjoy the weather“

“First time at a Waffle House and I can't complain! Typical chain breakfast fair, I got the Texas cheese steak melt with some loaded up hashbrowns (looked up how to order em on reddit lol) and overall I enjoyed it! Comparative to a Dennys or IHOP, I think I'd def visit another one in the near future.

Service here was great, food was exactly how I ordered so 5 stars it gets ?“

“food was good could’ve had more flavor though. i don't recommend the chai tea latte. special thanks to them for making me some sausage gravy with turkey sausage! server could’ve been more attentive but she was nice! everyone was great!“

“We ate breakfast here on the way to drop our daughter off at college, and Julian was our server. He is such an excellent person with the best energy and positive personality. He absolutely made our day! Thank you, Julian!“

“my favorite💯, i double up on meals here“

“Just tried Maple Street for the first time this past week and it was great! I ordered the biscuits and gravy. Delicious! And the biscuits are huge and fluffy, not dry. My hubby had chicken and waffles and he gave it two thumbs up as well. The food was served in a very timely manner. The place *does* get busy but it's understandable.

I have to give a shout out to the employees. The guy who took our order was so kind and answered our breakfast questions with no problem. I enjoyed the whole experience and look forward to going back.“

“I make a mean biscuits and gravy but this place far exceeds mine! The biscuits are obviously home made and the gravy is amazing! It's a HUGE portion. The crispy bacon was actually crispy and this was a delivery. The cheese grits were also delicious!“

“Ms. D is a godsend in the Atlanta community, specifically the Historic West End. Follow them on IG and fb for updates on live music. They cater, and rent their dining room for special events. They're also an in-restaurant full service dining room. Ate there today for brunch at about 11am, and my friend had the burrito with vegan sausage and vegan cheese replacement and devoured it. The fresh fruit bowl she got with it was so ripe and perfect! I ordered shrimp quesadillas, which were remarkable, with a yummy, very fresh and crisp green salad. They had ginger tea, caffeinated and decaf coffee. Service was excellent. They've partnered with the city of Atlanta to hire teen waitstaff throughout the summer for fair pay. Nothing is more wholesome, mom and pop, and worthy of support and celebration than a true community based business! I will always support this eatery!“

“Let’s just say that we were on a road trip and realized that there was no restaurant open due to it being chrome eve and Waffle House had their doors open and received my family foe indoor dining. Waitresses was good food was delicious and my family was happy on Christmas Eve with home a home cooked meal“

“Had a late lunch here. Ended up ordering a side of French toast and a side of bacon since I didn’t want a lot of food and most menu listings included several items.

The French toast was very good, as was the crème anglaise and raspberry sauce. Bacon was perfectly crisp and delicious.

Hubby gave me his grits and part of his biscuit. The cranberry apple butter was SO good! I loved the twist on a classic. The biscuit was perfect, soft on the inside with a flaky outer crust. The grits were a pleasant surprise! I’m kind of a grit snob and I enjoyed them very much. I admittedly stole a bite of his scrambled eggs and they were perfectly cooked.

No pictures of the food, but the restaurant was bright and cheery and the staff was friendly and efficient. I would definitely go back.

Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendly, have high chairs.

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps into restaurant or within the restaurant. Not sure about restroom.“

“Awesome! Great service❤️❤️❤️“

“All these stars are for Gary. We came in with a big table, with lots of kids to see their grandparents off on their trip, and Gary was kind and patient. He was knowledgeable about the menu, and served us with a smile. He was also funny and professional. He brought us everything we needed to enjoy our meal: extra salsa for an omelet, and bacon extra crispy. Refills were prompt too. If I could give Gary 10 stars I would. No, 11 stars, because Gary himself is a shining STAR.“

“Our waitress was fun and energetic, served us very well, a ND made us feel like old friends! ?
This was our first time at this location, and I ordered what I usually do: BLT and hashbrowns with onions.

I got what I ordered, but for some reason, the hasbrowns didn't taste normal. ?

I think they tasted like margarine, which I generally avoid. I use butter instead of margarine. So either more was used on this order than other locations so that I tasted it, or other locations that I frequent use butter. I don't know. But we enjoyed the service and memories here more than I enjoyed my hasbrowns.

The sandwich, though, was delicious!! ?“

“Awesome visit on a Sunday afternoon to this Waffle House location. We were greeted upon entering. Our server, Charlie, was extremely kind and helpful. He was patient and attentive. Our order came exactly as requested and we always had our cups filled. The food was very good, fresh and made exactly to order. I would definitely recommend this WH location to anyone in the area or passing through. Thank you!“

“Everything is so good and the people works there,they are nice♥️“

“Well pretty much every waffle House you go to is the same this one has to be called out for the exceptional customer service of the person who was taking care of the to-go orders. Taryn was so pleasant so engaging and made sure that I had everything I needed for my order and double-checked it her smile and attitude made my day.“

“Every event we have been to at City Springs has been a great experience. On Saturday, 12/10 as part of day, the World Cup afternoon broadcast sounded like such a great time. Our family was excited about this outdoor venue. Sadly, their were several technical difficulties and the entire game ended up in Spanish. Most of the crowd was watching on their cell phones. The broadcast totally cut out in the last 5 minutes of the game. As weather permits, this is a great idea, but in the future, testing beforehand would certainly help.“

“I usually order (and highly recommend) the eggs Benedict, but decided to try the Route 66 and was very pleased! I ordered it with an over medium egg and English muffin and it was absolutely delicious. The portion size is great for the price as well!“

“The food was delicious, I would go back again. Thank you“

“The food here was really good. Although it was super crowded, they were able to get us in really quickly. I was meeting family for a quick bite and I guess I didn't expect it to be so crowded on a Saturday morning. The food was tasty and as expected. However the best thing of all was the service and cleanliness. These ladies and guys did a great job of keeping everybody moving in and out and keeping the tables clear and bussed and the floors clear of any debris despite having so many people moving in and out of it. I remember when they first opened. I ordered a rooty tooty fresh and fruity and underneath all of that fresh and fruity rooty tooty was an uncooked stack of pancakes. The manager was super nice but my taste for this place was severely soured. I've been back several times since then over the years and they've gotten so much better. I really enjoyed my visit and will definitely come again. It's a great family spot for a quick bite to eat. The menu has lots of options whether you want breakfast lunch or dinner and plenty of options for the kids. This location is great very visible and the parking lot has quite a bit of good parking.

Kid-friendliness: Cute menu with a crayon to keep the kids occupied. Lots of cute decorations on pancakes or whatever other food items you want them to eat“

“I decided to do a Thanksgiving Friday late lunch, and was not disappointed. Requested their great server, Tayah, & she remembered my previous visit's order, & it was better than ever!! The Chicken Fajita omelet with a side of yummy pancakes is gourmet heaven. It is loaded with grilled chicken bites, inside & out, with fire roasted poblano & red peppers, Cheddar cheese, & onions, served with little cups of sour cream & salsa on the side. You will need extra cups, the omelet is so big. Mr. Ernest is the Omelet Garu, ask for him, if you get an omelet. Tayah checked on me through out the meal, even brought a hot pot of fresh coffee to replace my initial pot! Randy and Tony have kept the " "bestest" servers ; which are now attracting regulars and families... I spoke to two, & they both loved this location & the caring friendly staff. Randy and Tony always come to say hello. I'll be back. They rate 10 stars!!!!“
