Devoured Chocolate Brownie - Regular
Bri K.

We were needing some coffee and breakfast before we got the Civil Rights museum. Glad we stumbled upon this place. The cashier was very helpful and friendly. The POS was down both days we went there. But it was easy to purchase everything online. Their bagel was different but good. It's made with a focaccia dough. My son devoured the brownie. The chai was good, but I accidentally added sugar when I ordered so it was too sweet. Mt partner said the coffee was just ok. They have a great selection of homemade bakery items. We came back two days later and got the Morning Glory muffins, the Nutella poptart, and a granola bar. They were all yummy.

Breakfast biscuit with turkey sausage and an iced au lait.

Best. Biscuit. Ever. That's all you need to know...but I'll give you more. I ate that whole thing, which took me 15 minutes because I'm slow, but that biscuit never lost its fluff.

Cute coffee shop with decent options for breakfast. The veggie croissant was really good, it has two veggie patties on it and the croissant itself was really soft, with melted cheese. The raspberry pop tart wasn't my favorite but I liked that it wasn't as sweet as regular pop tarts. I had a decaf white mocha sub almond milk. I liked that it wasn't served piping hot, the waiting game to drink a hot drink is annoying, but this one was served just hot enough. The wait time wasn't long either, considering we had two full orders. Love the location. Ended up sitting outside to eat. Will be back

Cream cheese breakfast roll
Abbe K.

Super friendly staff and clean, welcoming seating area, both inside and out. I got the cream cheese roll (basically a cinnamon roll) and was delighted by the first bites. Nicely flavored and icing not too sweet. Alas, as I got to the center is the roll, the cinnamon spread mixed with raw batter, and I could hear Paul Hollywood saying "That's undercooked." Such a shame. I will go back, though, because the cherry cheese danish I saved for later was delicious! More biscuit than light pastry, the flavors were sharp and fresh.

Breakfast sandwich. Bacon, cheddar, egg. Americano.

Solid bagel sandwich. Bagel was a little less dense, a little more bread-y...but in a good way! Bacon was crispy. Americano was good. Cookies looked amazing, might have to go back.

Meat, Egg & cheese (Ham)

My second time in here, this weekend... the food is delicious and filling! The Haley's Comet is delicious too! Yummmmmmmmy!!!

Sausage, Egg & Cheese Sandwich

God I always love this place. Never disappoints It's a hefty breakfast sandwich with that melts in your mouth with every bite.

Everything Bagel sandwiches and Haley's Comet - Small!

I've eaten here every time I stay at the Crntral hotel because it's so easy to order on Bluff City App and then walk over and grab my breakfast! They are fast and everything I've had from their breakfast food is delicious! The breakfast sandwiches are my favorite! I've also tried all their specialty coffee drinks and they are GOOD! Need to try this one if you haven't!

Haven't been here for a few years. I grew disgusted with seeing flies in the pastry case at every visit. So...two years later I hoped things would grow finer with time. Unfortunately my first stop upon arrival was the restroom; but one was out of commission. The functioning facility was missing towels and the mismatched seat seemed to illustrate the lack of attention to details I had noted years previous. After emerging with still wet hands, I noticed the well stocked bakery case was both appetizing and fly-free. Though tempted, it would require a few more visits before ordering a bite. Almond Latte and an Americano were our drinks for the day. The Americano was good, shot was smooth and drink served at less than lava hot. The latte was a bust. Only a hint of foam and zero texture. Taste was bland. Bottom line, I may return to BC when in the area but mainly because I won't pay $10 to park near Tamp & Tap, and spots can be harder to find a few blocks north when LoFi is open. Please folks - the details matter and aren't that difficult to master.

Egg and cheese on plain biscuit. Not bad but not great.
Tina N.

Coffee drinks are made to order. I ordered the egg and cheese on a plain biscuit for $5. It wasn't bad but it wasn't great either. Would have preferred McDonald's egg and cheese on an English muffin.

Straight-up comfort food perfection. Everything on this plate was --crispy bacon, perfectly cooked…read moreeggs, hash browns with that just-right crunch, and the biscuits & gravy? Elite. Absolute main-character energy. Portions were generous, flavors were on point, and nothing felt rushed or sloppy. On top of that, the service was top-tier--friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. This is the kind of breakfast that fixes your mood and makes you plan your next visit before you even leave. 10/10, would demolish again

Thankfully, right…read morewhen I walked in, someone pointed me in the right direction and said, "If you're trying to decide, go with the Redheaded Stepchild." I took the advice, and I'm really glad I did. It was fantastic--stacked with pulled pork, smoked sausage, and beef brisket, all topped with slaw and BBQ sauce on a bun. I also tried a bite of the barbecue bologna, which is a thick-cut slice served on white bread, and that didn't disappoint either. Inside gets pretty smoky, so you'll probably prefer sitting outside. Luckily, there are plenty of picnic tables and seating areas to choose from. I didn't catch the name of the guy who helped me, but he was friendly, energetic, and made the whole experience even better. Overall, a really enjoyable visit.

The shrimp was seasoned with cajun flavors and chili pepper flakes then dipped in a tempura like batter and fried. The shrimp was paired with a soft but yet crunchy bread. The sandwich was topped with lettuce and tomatoes. It did not have a sauce but would have been even better with a spicy aioli. Very GREAT SANDWICH. My friend ordered The Madness that came with a variety of meats topped with lettuce and tomatoes with an onion marmalade. My other friend chose The Philly Cheese Steak. Looked really good. The restaurant/deli is located inside of the grocery store with the same name. The place is nice and organized with snacks, local sweets, drinks, wine etc. The deli has other wonderful options in the case as well. Service was great. The gal that took our sandwich order was so nice and friendly. This grocer is found in the Crosstown Concourse. We decided to eat outside of the grocery store at a table. I will return to try some other scrumptious sandwiches.
