    This location of Eastpole is nice! Plenty of seating on the inside. The barista was friendly and I enjoyed my iced tea! There is a parking lot but there's also street parking for free nearby you can walk to.

    Might be my new favorite cafe! And coffee! Staff was lovely, so personable to myself and others in the shop. And the coffee was amazing, I got a simple vanilla latte but it tasted amazing. I'll be back!

    There's so many things about this place that I want to love. I think as a study cafe, it works if you get here early enough when it's not packed or peak hours. This East Pole location doesn't have too much seating. There's a few tables in the back, coffee counter seating, and high table chairs. There was a couple of outlets upside down by the high chairs at the windows. I came on a warm, sunny day so it was nice to sit at the pink metal tables outside. The cortado had a beautiful presentation and just enough of a caffeine hit. The guy at the counter was super nice when I asked him for recommendations and very conversational. Even when it was busy, I felt welcomed and was intrigued by his questions.

    I love this spot as a spot to read or work while grabbing a good cup of coffee. The customer service is amazing the people are so friendly and will even give you a cup of water if you're sitting there for a bit. There's no pressure to continuing order food or anything. The coffee itself is really good. I did give it only 4 stars mostly because there's limited snack options and honestly it's not that good. I had the cheese and onion empanada and tbh it was mostly bread than filling. But if you're just looking for coffee and a place to relax this is the spot! Also free parking for 2 hours which is always appreciated.

    My go to place for coffee in Atlanta. East Pole has the most consistent Oat Milk Latte I've gotten at any coffee shop in Atlanta. No matter who is making it, no matter what day or what time, I can expect it to taste exactly the same. Which is extremely rare. Beyond the taste, what I love is that I never have to mix the drink. Syrups tend to sit at the bottom of drinks in a lot of places, but not here. Every sip is perfectly blended. Service is always great. You can depend on a friendly face to great you as soon as you walk in. I'm always greeted with "How or you/How's your day going" vs "what can I get you". I've been to the other locations but this one is hands down my favorite. There's a good amount of space for working. Music provides enough ambiance to be present but not distracting. Only thing to note is that sometimes the AC works a little too well, so keep a jacket with you. Plenty of parking in the lot nearby. Definitely check it out if you've never been.

    East Pole Coffee Co. has roasteries and coffee bars in Atlanta and Birmingham. The Atlanta-based company values the power of relationships, whether with their coffee producers, wholesale customers, or coffee bar patrons. East Pole's first store is located in the Armour Yards neighborhood, with a second Atlanta location in Poncey Highland. Both Atlanta locations offer beautifully designed spacious interiors with plenty of natural light, nautical design pieces, and bluish hues. The Poncey Highland location offers limited seating. The Armour Yards location shares a building with Coyote and Capella Cheese. The facility entrance features a large coworking space with plenty of outlets and even some cushions in addition to outdoor seating. East Pole Coffee Co. strives to provide exceptional service. I love that they bring your coffee/tea to your seat. I love their coffee and Spirit Teas (especially the Firefly Black Tea) and also purchase coffee beans on-site. The Armour Yards location has a pretty solid Iced Peach Tea.

    I came into East Pole to do some work prior to an appointment nearby and was so happy with my experience. I was warmly greeted by the staff upon entering and tried out their current seasonal coffee, a cookie butter cappuccino. It was not overly sweet and very smooth. While I was sipping on my coffee, one of the employees was occasionally walking around and dropping off glasses of water to people- such a wonderful touch. I will definitely visit East Pole when I am in the area again!

    I have enjoyed East Pole coffee at home many times so, I had to make a stop while we were in Atlanta. The shop had a killer vibe and the staff was amazing. I am a coffee nerd and appreciated the barista talking to me about what was on bar and even offered me to smell and see the beans for each of the pour over options. I went with the La Reserva (Colombian) and it did not disappoint. The robo-pour over machine was cool too. It makes sense to have a few for the volume of coffee they were cranking out. It extracted really well and I was happy with the cup it brewed. Overall this is a wonderful coffee shop that is perfect for a quick hang, date or to work from. Wish we had one in Orlando :)

    Oat milk lattes that were so good I forgot to take a picture before

    I don't know how and why this coffee shop has only 4 stars. Easily my top 5 coffee shops in Atlanta. I swear their drinks are the most consistent and if you want a simple oat milk latte; they should be your go-to! If you're in the mood for a syrup, theirs are homemade and taste like it! They never add too much either; I'm not a super sweet latte drinker and they make theirs just right. As far as space goes, it's difficult to catch a table if you're looking to work like I usually am but if you can, it's a really nice atmosphere. The baristas are incredible with their latte art and service and they serve 5 Daughters Donuts here, an extra plus! (Bonus: try their potato puff pastry, SO GOOD!)

    Overpriced but really nice and clean place . When will this wine bar ever open That would make me visit them more often . Anyway I would still prefer Java vino on north highland over east pole . Java vino has their own beans with their farmer direct coffee shop and more no nonsense just relax atmosphere

    Some of the best coffee we've ever had! Very cute shop with some good vibes. Service was excellent. Would definitely return!

    Peach Iced Tea
    Sarah P.

    This was my first time at East Pole, and I had a lovely experience! The baristas were so sweet and helpful! I ordered the Peach Iced Tea which was refreshing for a hot summer day. The only thing to be wary of is that there aren't many tables to sit at inside.

    def one of my fave coffee shops in atl, they validate parking for an hour on weekends and for two hours on weekdays, they're also creating a wine bar called " sea legs" coming soon so i WILL be back, also lots of seating for studying

The band Pure Soul delivered an incredible tribute to Frankie Beverly & Maze. Their performance was spot on--capturing not only the timeless sound and energy of the music, but also sharing the history behind Frankie Beverly, the band, and the songs that have touched generations. It truly felt like taking a wonderful trip back in time while celebrating the legacy of an iconic artist. The tickets started at $30, with brunch purchased separately. In my opinion, the entire experience was well worth the price of admission and the brunch. The quality of the live performance alone made it a memorable afternoon, and the brunch only added to the overall experience. City Winery's Atlanta brunch buffet is offered separately from the show ticket. The venue was clean, comfortable, and relaxing, creating the perfect atmosphere to enjoy great music, good food, and wonderful company. This wasn't my first visit to City Winery, and I can honestly say that every experience I've had here has been enjoyable. If you love classic soul music, great live performances, and a relaxing Sunday outing, I highly recommend attending one of the Pure Soul tribute brunches. I'll definitely be back!

Side note: CW packs this place out, so make sure you sit either in the front middle section facing the stage or in the very back (caged in section). Other than the issues I stated above, good vibes,you'll have a great time!

I was so full but managed to scrape down the whole thing because of how light the gnocchi was and how delicious the sauce was. All 3 of us agreed this is the kind of place we want to come back over and over so we can try everything! 10/10 from me! Just note, parking wise, there's a tiny tiny lot, but I street parked around the corner. This area is notoriously a little harder for parking so just give yourself some extra time!

They hold a jazz night every Tuesday with live music for a nice chill, yet fun, vibe. Just a warning, the space inside is pretty small--typically there's optional seating outside, but it's really chilly at the moment (although they have heaters)--but there's more seating downstairs in The Victorian Atlanta plant shop. I didn't realize that the two were connected! FYI, if you sit downstairs, you'll be seated next to where the live music performers will be playing, so it will be louder there. As for the drinks, I tried the Zombie. I loved it so much, I ordered a second one instead of trying a different one! It tasted sweet and slightly tropical with the rum and spiced liqueur. It also had some absinthe, which I was worried about when I first ordered it since I hate the taste of it (not a big fan of black licorice flavors), but I didn't taste it at all! Overall, this place had such a great vibe to it!

After lunch this place caught my eye as…read moretheir beer and alcohol selection on tap looked expansive (56 to be exact--44 beers and 14 wines), especially for a location in the food hall. Aside from what's on tap they carry a selection of bottled and canned beers and wines too. From their website their initial vision was to be a growler shop, and they've been able to do that here at this location since it opened in 2016. This means offering refillable containers of varying sizes making it possible to offer independent brewers that may not have their own bottling/canning capabilities. Their staff is very knowledgeable and willing to offer recommendations based on your preferences. I tried a few things: - New Realm Oaxaca Chocolate (Mexican chocolate stout) $8.99 for 16.9oz thermos: I loved this dark beer with a deep malty chocolate note that leaves a hint of chili spice on your tongue. - Meridian Hive Apple Pie Mead $7.99 for a 8oz pour. On the sweeter side for a mead though not overly so. I liked the honey flavor lingering in the background. - Atlanta Hard Cider Co Cranberry craft cider $6.95 this local seasonal cider hails from Marietta, I enjoyed the balance of sweet and tart, not a flavor you usually see for ciders and I appreciate the creativity!

    Yum YUMMYY! I really…read moredon't know where to start but I absolutely love Buena Vida! I guess thats a great place :) location, Location, LOCATION! I admire that area of Buena Vida. All the entertainment is right there in front of you. You're just steps away from the belt line. If you like to people watch, this is for you! They have outdoor seating. A fire pit. Local spots that has live music and you can tend to hear from the patio. This is by far one of my favorite spots in the Ponce area. Let's start with the service. The service is absolutely amazing. I've never had an issue here. Got my food promptly. Always been helpful when conflicted on food options. The service here is 10 out of 10. Phemonenal customer Service, make you feel welcome. Feels like a small community of people, everyone I encoutered were super sweet from servers to bartenders. Treated me like family and I love establishments like that you can get my money ANY day! I'd like to highlight someone special: Alyssa is truly exceptional. She served as my bartender on my latest visit, and I can't say enough good things about her. I look forward to coming in whenever she's working. She's genuine, fun, and her positive energy is a gem. Turning to the cuisine, I have visited the establishment before, and the food is truly exceptional. Two standout appetizers are the Gambas al Ajillo and the garlic-forward, succulent shrimp; the accompanying bread is full of flavor and serves as an excellent introduction to the meal. The Patatas Bravas also deserve special mention--the garlic aioli, chef kiss. As a pescatarian, which is evident in many of my reviews, I cannot comment on the meat options. Nevertheless, there is a noteworthy selection of vegan and gluten-free dishes available. I sampled the Spanish grilled cheese with truffle and garlic aioli--being a fan of garlic, the generous use here was particularly appealing. This reinterpretation of a childhood favorite significantly elevated the dish. Another highlight was the scallops. Although the dish included corn (which I generally avoid), I found it delicious, nonetheless. The scallops were cooked to perfection and infused with rich flavors. The chef demonstrates considerable expertise in crafting these recipes, and I have no complaints regarding my dining experience. Now, a few of my favorite drinks--though everyone might not share the same tastes. When I visit a Spanish-style restaurant, I have my go-to options. One of my favorites is the passionfruit margarita; it's so delicious, it feels like you're on an island. Of course, my all-time favorite is the strawberry margarita--so good and flavorful. It has just the right balance of not too much lime, with a subtle hint of mint--who knew we needed that? Another top pick is the 'Dragon on Vacation.' I usually avoid spicy drinks, so I had the habanero removed, but it's still the perfect blend of dragon fruit flavor in a margarita--so good. I also love a good Paloma; I appreciate its little kick. Overall, I have no complaints about these drinks!

There was always someone yelling over another and we had to continuously ask someone to repeat themselves. They do half off bottles of wine on Wednesdays and that might've been the one thing I enjoyed. As for the food, it was also subpar. I ordered the CRISPY PIMENTON CHICKEN which was essentially a fried chicken with hot honey sauce and that was enjoyable. The caprese salad was good but my tomato's were a bit mushy. I also enjoyed a few of the potatoes brava as well but they weren't anything spectacular. My friends said the steak tasted burnt and needed less charring. The atmosphere of the restaurant is cute as there is indoor and outdoor seating but honestly, I'm not that eager to go back.
