    Breakfast sandwich on fresh muffin.
    April C.

    We discovered this amazing little spot this weekend and had the most delightful breakfast we have had in a long time. The restaurant is bright and airy with lots of cute art on the walls. There was live music playing softly which made great ambiance. The servers were so friendly and attentive. The coffee was amazing. It might be the best vanilla latte I have ever had. Creamy, smooth not too sweet. The food was delicious. Pumpernickel raisin bread is to die for. Prices are very reasonable.

    This deli sandwiches here are amazing. Fresh and delicious and well prepared. We had decaf coffees in the afternoon and they tasted a little odd. Regardless, we will definitely be back here again when we go to Catonsville. The deli is very quant and cozy with a second level dining area. They also have numerous music events which look like a lot of fun.

    Indeed, I love the blend of excellence of skill, professional conscientiousness, consistently high quality brewing, and exuberant personal charm of my FAVE MASTER Atwater's BARISTA - RILEY whose lattes take the cake all day!!! And now, I must add to my top 3 fave baristas, running in a tight 2nd place, new barista ELLIE!!! Awesome Ellie brews the BEST ICED VANILLA LATTES known to man!!!! Today and yesterday, I, a very frequent Atwater's customer of over a decade, experienced the brewing talents of the. most cordial, well-skilled, very conscientious barista, Ellie! My latte was light, lavish, smooth, and very satisfying embodying the perfect blend of espresso, milk, and all-natural, homemade vanilla (Atwater's steams real vanilla bean to make its sug-free vanilla flavoring, I was informed years ago)! Ellie - like Riley - takes her time and dedicates her service to designing the most excellent espresso concoctions! My daughter and I both said our lattes were A-1 exceptional, and we agreed they tasted uniquely well crafted! Will visit soon again to have another! I have had lattes throughout the tri-State area as well as in various other countries, and yet I find Ellie's lattes to be quite perfect, quite notable for this world-traveling latte/ espresso aficionado!!! Kudos!

    We had been to Atwater's in Baltimore and I loved it, so I was very keen on trying the Atwater's at Catonsville. Cozy from the outside, surprisingly spacious inside. There is more sitting upstairs. Friendly staff, fresh and flavorful food. We ordered tomato mozzarella sandwich and House Pancake and both tasted great. It isn't just about great food -- their coffee is fantastic too. So if you are planning to go for a coffee date it's a perfect place to be. Parking is a bit of a challenge--there are a few spots behind the building, plus some street parking, but during peak hours you might have to circle a bit. Overall, Atwater's is a great spot for a casual lunch, coffee date, or a weekend brunch with friends.

    Brunch menu

    Had a 15 minute wait for a party of 3 on a Sunday afternoon. The menu was unimpressive, with everything on the menu a bit fancier than my tastes, and they're priced to match. Just about every dish had avocado or some kind of fancy sauce or cheese. Our server looked at us like we were crazy when we asked for some small changes or additions to our meals. The coffee was a bit bitter and was only refilled once. One of the people in my party had their order completely forgotten either by the server or the kitchen (the shift supervisor did apologize). She didn't get her meal until the rest of us were done. My SO wants to come back, I told her she can go back without me.

    We didn't know that there was space upstairs. Lots of space. The coffee was really good. We sat at the bar. Somehow our order didn't seem to make it to the kitchen so it took a while for our meal to come. We were comped 50% which was nice. Decent meal. Over all satisfied and would come back. Food was decent; I wish the sandwich had been larger.

    Ham Jam Biscuit with egg
    Maya D.

    I've been twice and enjoyed the experience. The service really brings this review to a solid 5. I would only give the food a 4/4.5 depending on what you get but the servers are always crazy nice and helpful. Ham Jam Sandwich: ham, cheddar cheese, jam on a biscuit. I added a fried egg, which was a nice addition. I would ask for more jam on the side. Their biscuits aren't like traditional, thick, buttermilk southern round biscuits. They're rectangular, on the thinner side (which works well to hold the Sandwich together perfectly), and very soft. Would definitely get again. Pancakes: they're unique... Have an ingredient that I can't pinpoint... They're fine but they don't stand out to me. Bacon: not thick but not annoyingly thin. Cooked well... This is important to know lol I would get again Avocado toast: was not giving at all. Needs something else to brighten it.. Maybe something citrus to compliment the other flavors. Wouldn't get again. I'm curious enough to keep coming back though!

    The shop has a very small store front and I was shocked to see such a spacious cafe behind the doors. The service was helpful and friendly when I walked in. There are a FEW options to sit down inside --and outside of the shop on a nice day. I dropped in to grab a decaf iced coffee and it was completely disgusting. I took a sip leaving out and thought it was horrible, but figured I could doctor it up in the car. I don't know what happened, but I got a bad batch of coffee, bad milk, or bad something. I highly recommend making sure your drink is right before leaving because I wasted $7 because I didn't go back in.

    Wonderful counter service. Plenty of extra seating upstairs. My cappuccino was both beautiful and delicious. We loved the breakfast sandwich we split; the bread was great. Their gluten-free brownie is moist and delicious.

    Chicken Kale Caesar Sandwich

    I mean what more can I say?!? Atwater's has always been a staple in my brunch journey. I generally had gone to the location in Baltimore in the Canton area, but since they have been acquired - I have not felt inspired to venture out. And secured a space with the perfect view. Well today was the day I got to indulge in my favorite - a dirty chai latte. Breakfast pending...but it's happening. I can't wait to come back ...this is what slow mornings are made of.

    Field Green Salad
    Deanna D.

    My husband and I visited Atwater's today hoping to enjoy delicious, healthy meal. I noticed many of my fellow Yelp Elites enjoyed this place, so I figure I would too. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed and highly doubt I will return. My husband ordered a Grilled Corn Beef Reuben without Sauerkraut, while I ordered the Field Green Salad with grilled chicken. After driving away, my husband took a bite into his sandwich which a face full of confusion. Turns out, he was given the Turkey Reuben instead of the Corn Beef Reuben. He called the restaurant to inform them of the mishap and the nice young lady on the phone apologized and offered to make him the correct sandwich, which he agreed to. Unfortunately, his second sandwich was still incorrect, as he ordered the Grilled Corn Beef Reuben without Sauerkraut and the sandwich had kraut . The Field Green Salad I ordered was just ok, as it was missing the apples. I definitely would have enjoyed it more as the apples would have added some crunch and a bit of sweetness. They were also out of the mixed greens that normally come in the salad, so they substituted arugula, which completely overpowered the dish. Needless to say, after spending over $50 on what we thought would be a quick, easy and thoughtless dinner, we're not happy. Neither of us finished our meals meaning we have to venture back out to spend more money. Sure, the staff of friendly, but that no consolation for receiving an order you didn't pay for.

    Is there waiter service? Is this somewhere one could go to read/study for a few hours without interruption?

    No, there isn't waiter service. But they have two floors! I found the 2nd one more quiet when I studied there compared to the 1st. Hope that helps!

One time my partner was standing outside with one of our doggos and I was inside ordering us coffee/breakfast. The owner came up to me and told me that we can bring our dog in. I couldn't figure out how he even knew that they were my people or how he saw them because they weren't standing near windows or doors. But that just shows how much they pay attention to their customers. When I found out that they had coffee flights after I already had been going there for months, I about about lost it. You can choose iced or hot and they come with a variety of flavors. They even top it off with different pastries! Those pastries go with the flavors. I honestly cannot say enough good things about Cozy Café. This is a staple in my house and it should be a staple in yours!

So the flight was for different ice lattes paired with a pastry, which was a croissant a Blondie brownie, a macaroon and lastly.strawberry cake for $25. It took a while for the flight to be prepared because I think they're a little bit shortstaffed on a Monday morning, but they had a lot of comfortable places to sit and wait. The corn beef sandwich came out good and I mentioned it was simple because it's literally just corn beef with some white bread and some cheese, but it was actually pretty tasty for breakfast. The coffee flight came out and it's on a large paddle and it looked really delicious. I have to say the regular flavored lattes and the croissant weren't my favorite choices, but as I started moving down the paddleboard towards flavored lattes and the Blondi bar, it was pretty good. My favorite latte was the butter beer and my favorite pastry actually turned out to be the Blondie brownie bar. The inside has enough seating for about 50 people and it's really cutely decorated. I highly recommend stopping in if you're in the mood for a coffee after a day of shopping in Ellicott city.

We picked this location mostly because it was conveniently located just off the highway on our way home. It's situated in what felt like a small downtown area of Arbutus. The inside of the coffee shop is much larger than it appears from the outside and, in addition to the main café area, it also includes a community room. Once inside the coffee shop space, there's a cooler with drinks and a small display case with their pastries. For our coffees that morning, I went with a large hot Lavender Dreams latte, while my wife ordered the Peach Keen cold brew. It took somewhere between 5 to 10 minutes before we had our coffees and were on our way. My coffee tasted good as I could clearly taste both the lavender and the honey, but there was still plenty of strong coffee flavor on the backend. My wife's coffee, on the other hand, wasn't so good. The peach flavor was extremely strong and sweet, and both of us thought it clashed in a strange way with the bold cold brew. The bottom line for me is that I might stop by here again in the future. While I enjoyed my coffee, my wife's was definitely one of the weirder flavors I've tasted and not in a good way.
