    Cinnamon bun
    Nhu L.

    I don't feed into the hype but this place is an absolute gem and a hit! I traveled to Atlanta and knew I had to hit the Aquarium and Coca cola museum and was looking for a brunch place close by and this restaurant had over 8k reviews! The service is amazing, the ambiance is your typical brunch place and the food was an absolute hit. I love their fried chicken sandwich (probably the best one I've ever had juicy and crispy)! I'll definitely come back anytime I'm in Atlanta.

    Yes to excellent food and service. This place definitely lived up to expectations! I was in town for the weekend and stopped by this place for a little brunch before we expolothe city. We were sat down quickly and our server was friendly and very helpful with deciding what to order. Also shouout to the kitchen for 1. Throwing down with the grits and 2. Knowing how to fry some eggs harder! People never do but the hit the mark. I ordered the breakfast platter with vegan sausage and a side of the shrimp sauce. Um yes very tasty. When I'm back in town I'll definitely be dining here again.

    This weekend I'm in Atlanta, and when I tell you I was SUPER hungry the moment I touched down... I mean it! As I was walking toward the Georgia Aquarium, I spotted this little gem right across the street called Atlanta Breakfast Club and decided to see what all the hype was about. Let me tell you--I made one of the best decisions of the trip! The restaurant itself is small, but it's bustling and the eager servers offer an exceptional experience. Watching plate after plate come out only made ordering harder. Giant chicken biscuits smothered in gravy, fluffy pancakes, peach-drizzled waffles, and French toast had me completely indecisive. I finally settled on the fried chicken sandwich with their homemade ranch, and WOW! It was absolutely amazing. The ranch was so good I had to order extra just to dip my perfectly seasoned fries. My partner ordered the French toast, country bacon, sausage, and shrimp & grits, and every single bite was a hit. If you're visiting Atlanta or heading to the Georgia Aquarium, do yourself a favor and stop here first. Matter of fact... I think I'm making one more stop before I head back home!

    Cinnamon Roll

    I was visiting town and heard this place was the spot to go too. Although it was pretty busy, the staff was attentive and on top of it! You will for sure leave the place smelling like food. The place played good music. The cinnamon roll was really good. The breakfast plates were alright. The potatoes would have been better if it was crispier and not drenched in cooking oil.

    Salmon Croquettes
    Brianna L.

    Finally made it back to ABC after several years. Food is still delicious and service was great (S/o to Seven(??). I came solo so seating took only a few minutes. Environment is generally busy and loud but typical for ATL restaurant, especially in the center of an entertainment/ tourist district. After being indecisive, I landed on the Salmon croquettes meal. I have been disappointed by croquettes in the past from other spots but these were truly delicious. Grits were perfect. Sweet tea was southern sweet. I only wish the portion was a bit more and the plating better presented for the cost. Hope to be back before another 7 years passes.

    Our server was beyond excellent! Her name escapes me, unfortunately. She sang to us. Her explanation of the specials and the menu was on point. The location was very inviting! Oh forgot to mention the gentleman who opened the door for us was so funny and welcoming. Definitely a place to try if you're in the area. I would most definitely go back with a bigger appetite. One thing to note is that all drinks were individual glass or plastic bottles. Meaning no well drinks. Coffee is served in cup and refillable.

    My friend and I were in the area for a convention and came into Atlanta Breakfast Club for brunch. Upon arriving, the place was completely packed. Despite this, the staff were able to quickly seat us and take our orders. I had the Crispy Fried Chicken & Waffles, which is one of their signature dishes. But unfortunately, I was not that impressed by the food. While the fried chicken was tender and juicy, the waffles were too dry and soft. Atlanta Breakfast Club definitely has excellent and efficient service. However, the quality of their food appears inconsistent and is not commensurate with the pricing.

    This place did not disappoint. We are not from the area but had no problem finding it. There is a paid parking garage across the street and a like 4 parking spots in front of the place but plenty of free surface street parking. The restaurant also is alot larger than it seems on the outside once you go inside. Come hungry because you will leave fill with some to take home if you want. Although the place was very busy, our wait time was very short. Our server was nice and attentive refilling my coffee whenever she passed by. The peach cobbler chicken and waffle was so good and filling. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

    Buttermilk Pancakes
    Daniel B.

    Stopped in for breakfast and had a wonderful meal. The buttermilk pancakes were delicious, and the build-your-own breakfast sandwich was a great option to allow for customization. Make sure you order the cinnamon bun - which was out of this world! Service was excellent, food was delicious, and I don't know what more you could want from a breakfast spot.

    Peach Cobbler French Toast
    Katherine N.

    I had a wonderful brunch at Atlanta Breakfast Club. We arrived at around 10 AM, and while it was pretty busy for a Thursday morning, we were seated right away. All beverages, with the exception of coffee and tea, are served bottled, so you'll have to pay a small fee even if all you want to drink is water. I found it a bit inconvenient, but it did not prevent me from thoroughly enjoying my meal there. FOOD: Blackened Salmon Special (5/5) - This was one of the house specials that Nya informed us about. We had requested the cook to be medium, and it came out perfect. My brother described it as the best-cooked salmon he had ever had; it was perfectly flaky and seasoned. The bed of potatoes and spinach that the salmon sat on was so flavorful and paired well with the salmon. Peach Cobbler French Toast (4/5) - I preferred the salmon, but I think that's simply because I am not big on eating sweet foods in the morning. However, it was too tempting to resist. The peaches weren't sickeningly sweet, the toast was fluffy, and the vanilla butter was very pleasant. I think it would be elevated with a scoop of vanilla ice cream (but that's a little too much for the first meal of the day). SERVICE: The service was absolutely exceptional! Nya was our waitress, and she was incredibly sweet and attentive. She even got me a chair for my tiny purse! She created such a warm atmosphere and made us feel very welcome in Atlanta. 10/10, no notes. TLDR// Come here for great food and even better service!

    Southern Benedict

    The Peach Cobbler French Toast is hands down the best French toast I've ever had! This was our second time visiting Atlanta, and coming back here was a must. Everything was just as incredible as we remembered. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was great, and the service truly made the experience even better. Savon was fantastic, attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome.

    chicken and biscuits with. gravy
    Amitaabh M.

    So here I am in Atlanta for a conference, no idea where to go for a lunch as I am rushing to get booth setup started and I stumble past this place with actual parking in downtown - which in itself felt like divine intervention. We pulled in, possibly in a spot we weren't supposed to be in, but we committed to it. Walked in and you could just feel it - this is the place everyone in town knows about. The kind of spot where locals send their out-of-town guests and say "trust me." Lucky for us it wasn't the weekend brunch rush, so we got seated without a wait. Great staff - our server was a bundle of energy as she rushed between the kitchen and the tables, with that infectious southern hospitality and always a smile. Now, let me tell you about the crispy chicken. Y'all. Done right - I mean the proper way, not the sad fast food version. We had it over biscuits smothered in black pepper gravy and I am not exaggerating when I say this is one of the best breakfasts I have had anywhere. The gravy situation alone deserves its own review. Good value too - you leave full and happy. The iced tea was cold and sweet, which is exactly what it should be down here. My buddy went for the jambalaya and came back a changed man. Place was hopping even on a weekday - I can only imagine the weekend scene. Go early, go hungry. Next time I have to do the chicken and waffles - as that is what they are known for

    Chicken and Black Pepper Gravy
    Carlo G.

    I had a delicious and indulgent breakfast here! As a Southerner, I missed this food and this restaurant hit the spot. My friend and I visited this spot on a very early Friday morning. There's barely any free parking spots in front, but we came at 7:30am and were able to secure one. For food, we split two dishes: - Peach Cobbler French Toast: Sweet, flavorful, warm, and crispy! This was a comforting dish from the yummy and saucy peaches to the fluffy and crunchy french toast. I really liked the warm spices used here which reminds me of American holiday desserts. - Chicken & Black Pepper Gravy Biscuit: Getting a biscuit with gravy in the South is a must. I'm really impressed with how crispy and moist the fried chicken was as well as how the biscuit was buttery and not dry. This was great and I need to try the elevated versions of this dish next time. The server assisting us was great and really exuded that Southern hospitality with his welcoming and positive energy. The interior is also pretty spacious and comfortable, great for families and groups. Would recommend to anyone looking for an authentic Southern breakfast here and I would love to come back!

    Delicious!

    Atlanta Breakfast Club Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Atlanta Breakfast Club

    Are reservations required?

    They do not take reservations. The have a waitlist you can join online before you make your way there.

    Are kids welcomed?

    Yes, there were many kids in there last time I went.

    What time does lunch end?

    As of last month the restaurant closes at 3 every day.

    Are Dogs allowed?

    The restaurant is kind of tight, in terms of seating, so unless it's a service dog, I don't think you can bring dogs.

    Is the wait long?

    Just ensure to get on the yelp waitlist when you're on your way. The wait time is pretty accurate on there.

    Best time to avoid wait?

    We went on a Friday morning before a long weekend got there a little after 10 and waited about 15 minutes joining the waitlist. They told us we would be seated in about 15 minutes and it was right on point. The crowd was pretty heavy when we were… 

    How do I make a reservation for tomorrow?

    Just join the waitlist on Yelp a few hours before you're ready to go eat.

    Do you play have a DJ at brunch on Fridays or Saturdays?

    There was a DJ on a random Monday morning, so I'd like to think there would be one on the weekends

    Are reservations required?

    No. You can put your name on the waiting list.

    Can you accommodate a party of 22 people?

    This location can probably fit 22 there was a table of 12 when we were there. I would call ahead, and be there first ones there when they open. NO later

    Any outdoor seating?

    All the seating is in indoors but they do have benches outside as you wait for your table.

    Can you make reservations? How parking?

    Parking sucks. Unless you pay at the aquarium.

    Can I or your DJ play my single? I am Jewleyouse, a head strong rapper artist from Chicago, determined to leave an impact on the rap game.

    Lil Durk

    What vegan options are available?

    Very limited, you would be eating mostly sides.

    How are they with big parties?

    They are great. Make sure you go online and get your spot in line at least 4 hours before you want to go eat...

    Does this place have bottomless mimosas?

    No:(

    Do they accept Apple Pay?

    Yes

    Do they have bottomless mimosas?

    No. They don't even have liquor unfortunately.

    Do they hace bottomless mimosas?

    No. No alcohol is served there. It's more of a down home southern family breakfast spot. Food is very good but no alcohol.

    Do they have bottomless mimosa's on Saturday/Sunday?

    They don't serve alcohol.

Questions about cross contamination with allergens were met with a blank stare and shoulder shrug. The DJ was great but the music was way too loud and made it hard to hear each other. 20% auto grat is included for all checks over $100 according to the menu, but it should say all parties or something similar as it's determined by what the table spends. This was even more annoying considering the lackluster service we received. He did remove the automatic gratuity from my check, but it was only $10 due to a special so I'm sure that was only accommodated since the tip was $2.

She checked on us numerous times, didn't rush us and offered suggestions. She kept our table clear of mayhem from empty plates and glasses. Now the food was delicious. It was so good. The chicken was moist and the outside was crispy. The mashed potatoes melted in my mouth. Plus, we had a slice of 7up cake for dessert. I high recommend this place.

I'll keep it simple the food was good, don't get me wrong. But for the price, it just didn't match up. This is one of those places that works if you're trying to impress clients or enjoy the atmosphere. Strip away the location, and the food-to-price ratio probably lands much lower. Just my take. Overall: 4/5 great setting, just comes at a premium.
