    French toast with berries
    Michael B.

    Had Sunday brunch with some friends. Had some nice outdoor seating on a beautiful May morning. The service was efficient. Menu has a good mix of traditional breakfast fare and other more traditional lunch items. One of the best pancakes I ever had. The breakfast burrito was good, with silky scrambled eggs. Not much bacon or potatoes in the burrito though. Everyone was fairly satisfied with the meal and the location.

    The star of the show and I give this a 7.2

    It's all about location. Every time I visit Ponce city market this breakfast place is always packed. I'm talking line out the door, so I took a trip on Friday mid morning around 11:30am to check it out The service was decent. I feel the food was average. There's nothing that stands out on the menu to me. The pancakes taste average. The French toast was great. It actually was the star of the show while we tried pork and chicken sausage. It was just OK. The breakfast potatoes were normal potatoes. I will say that the bacon had a funny aftertaste (pork bacon) They have outdoor and indoor seating. The establishment is decorated fairly cute, but there are far better breakfast places in my opinion. However, if you're at Ponce it's easy to navigate yourself to this place . The location works for this establishment, my overall rating is a 7.2.

    It speaks for itself! Very tasty and perfect proportions!

    Had a breakfast date with my hubby. We walked in and were greeted with friendly hellos. Everything was clean and bright. Our server was helpful and friendly. My hubby ordered the pancake breakfast and loved it. I ordered the ricotta pancakes. They were huge - 3 plate filler pancakes! The ricotta is cooked into the pancake and a layer of lemon curd sauce is spread on the top pancake. It had a bright flavor. I do wish the lemon was on each pancake, but that's just me. I loved how the edges of the pancake were crisp. I could only eat almost half of the serving, so I brought home the remainder (which was enough to share with hubby ) for another meal. My only ding are the prices which are a little high, but honestly what isn't these days? We will definitely be back! Next time I want to try the French toast!

    This is now my favorite brunch spot in the city. Surprisingly I've never had a problem with getting a table as soon as i arrive. I also suggest sitting outside if the weather is right. My waitress convinced us to get the craft mimosas which was a great decision lol. The food is large portions and every bite is great!

    Great atmosphere, service; French toast w berry compote; fresh coffee; other guests enjoyed the pancakes

    Hey y'all I am back. Let's get into it. Parking - have to pay for parking. It's located on the side of ponce city and they do not validate. Validate if you come to eat when they open very very early. Service - everyone was sweet to me. Tables were clean and the restaurant! Bathroom is located through the back doors into another small room by ponce if you are looking. The kitchen is open, so you can see your food coming out / them preparing it. Food- I def came for the pancakes because it's called pancake social. . I got the blueberry type. So yummy, fluffy and warm. My food came out relatively fast. I also got the eggs scrambled and the hash brown patties. The eggs nothing special. The hash browns were a little on the salty side but good color and crunch. I also had their fresh orange juice and it was good. Not too sweet. They have other juices I didn't try and was out of one at the time. Timing - I went after my run club so it was around 9/930. I was able to walk in and get a table immediately. When I was leaving the crowds started coming in. I would advise if possible to make a reservation if not early in the morning. They have seating inside , outside , and at the bar. I would definitely come back. I would say they don't have alternative meat options. Red meat , pork, and chicken but no turkey or vegan options in meat fyi. I would have loved a turkey patties or link with this meal.

    Such a cute brunch place and food was yum! Had a good breakfast debrief here with my friends. The service was amazing - I felt terrible because I accidentally knocked over my glass of ice and the waitress was so sweet about it. Definitely would come again!

    Cute little pancake house Great for breakfast/brunch /lunch. Clean white industrial vibe. Solid menu-great options. The server was accommodating when our daughter came in after we ordered. The food was fresh and hot. I got the pancake plate. -the pancakes were light and fluffy and filled the entire plate, eggs OM were crispy on the edges like gramma used to make - yum!. I did have to wait several minutes for syrup and butter to arrive. And 2 omelets- The portions are generous here. Prepare to eat!

    To kick off my girlfriend's birthday, we decided to have breakfast at Pancake Social, located in Ponce City Market. It was my first time there, and the overall experience was pretty solid. Parking was easy, especially for a Friday around 10:30/11 a.m. They offer free parking right in front of the restaurant, and there's also a parking deck nearby, which is super convenient depending on the time of day. It wasn't crowded at all when we arrived, so I'd definitely recommend weekday mornings for the best experience. We were seated immediately, and started things off by splitting a pitcher of Peach Mimosa ($20), which was refreshing and a fun way to celebrate. For food, I ordered: Single Buttermilk Pancake ($4.50) Savory Grits with Cheese ($4) Hot Honey Chicken Bites ($10) Tater Tots ($5.50) The flavors were great across the board--the pancake was light, fluffy, and delicious; the chicken bites had a nice kick; the grits were creamy and flavorful; and the tots were crispy and seasoned well. That said, while the food tasted great, most of it wasn't particularly warm when it arrived--the pancake was the only thing served hot. That was a little disappointing, especially since the restaurant wasn't busy. However, the flavor quality and the pitcher of mimosas helped smooth things over and made the experience enjoyable overall. Ambience-wise, the space is bright and modern, perfect for a relaxed morning vibe or casual celebration. If you're looking for a cute breakfast or brunch spot with great flavors and a laid-back atmosphere, Pancake Social is definitely worth checking out. Just hope your food comes out a little hotter than mine did!

    We were in town for a concert and my birthday, and decided to go for a nice breakfast for my…read morebirthday. Did some online research and kept coming back to Buttermilk Kitchen. Couldn't have been happier with our choice. Reviews I'd seen online mentioned parking is a bit limited and that the restaurant is frequently busy. So we were prepared for that even though we were going on a Thursday mid morning. I think there was an influx of people celebrating graduations because it was in fact very busy. However we got very lucky with parking and happened to come in right as someone was leaving. I was sure we would have a wait for a table, which of course would have been fine, but actually we were seated immediately! Which was super nice and unexpected. The atmosphere is bustling but not in a bad way. The restaurant itself is adorable and has a lot of character. It feels like you're having breakfast at an old friend's house. The service was great and our food came out in a very reasonable amount of time. I ordered a specialty coffee, I believe it was the almond joy cold brew, and it was delicious. Strong, which is how I like it and not overly sweet. I ordered the chicken biscuit on the waiter's recommendation and it was absolutely the best fried chicken I've ever had. Juicy and crispy. My husband ordered the pimento cheese omelette and was very happy with it, the bacon was thick cut and smoky and flavorful. The pimento cheese grits that came on the side for me were also a stand out, such great flavor. The biscuits are fantastic and the blueberry basil jam that came with my husband's meal was such a nice touch. We will absolutely make a point to come back to Buttermilk Kitchen next time we visit the Atlanta area.

First things first: the Chicken Biscuit. Buttermilk Kitchen's biscuit is on the crunchy, honey-flavored side. I personally prefer fluffier, more buttery biscuits, so this one wasn't my favorite. That aside, the chicken was crispy and well-seasoned and paired well with the cheese grits. If you ever wanted a dry, crunchy version of Homegrown's Comfy Chicken Biscuit, come give this a shot. I also tried the Hash Bowl, which was a bit underwhelming. It was a *lot* of potatoes compared to the eggs and bacon bits, and there wasn't a lot of seasoning other than the bacon. Would rather recommend one of the other options if you end up visiting. The drinks are good as well, would recommend the matcha latte (not too sweet!) and the French Press coffee.

We waited only a few minutes and was able to navigate the small lot to get a spot. There is a designated window for pre-orders and walk-ups have a separate line. It wasn't that long when we were there, but was out the door when we left. Ordering was easy as we got a chance to preview the paper menu, and we were given a card to place on our table once we found it. There was plenty of seating options despite the full lot, but it was nice out so a lot of people were out on the patio with views of the busy intersection. The decor was modern and airy. We checked out the salsa bar while we waited for our appetizer and I found the jalapeno roasted garlic, which was spicy and amazing!! Our appetizer was the con queso and I added chorizo, which I highly recommend. It was plenty for our party of 4 and they'll give you more chips if you need them for the amount of dip you get, just ask. I got one each of the steak, chicken, and carnitas tacos on corn tortillas.

If anyone from the LR team sees this my husband and I are very legitimately wanting to partner on opening a sister restaurant in Boston. It's the only way I can think to fill this gap.

Rather than kicking him out the manager came over, took his order and gave him a free dinner. Quietly, without causing a fuss. In the world we live in today the kindness is refreshing.

The little wooden tray for my chai tea reminded me to stay grounded. Tristan recommended a new drink--the Spiced Matcha Mule. Ooh, she was spot on.

I peeked over to the bar and noticed some fancy pink and green drinks being created by the host and a smiling barista. I couldn't decide--fruit, toast, or a salmon bagel. I fell back in love with a blast of flavor... the micro cilantro took the avocado toast to a whole next level. The fruits were perfect, and the intention came through with the fresh, delicate pink flowers--a nod to the seasonal festivities this weekend. As regulars left full, they looked loved and seen, each one getting a big mama hug from Mrs. Martha or Martin. She gives the sense that all is well in the world when she's there.
