Pastries A Go Go was a recommendation from online that I couldn't wait to try. It has plenty parking as it's located near relatively busy retail shops which I knew was a good sign. The bulk of the people I saw, were dining in. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich as a starting point for my first time. It was loaded! It had plenty bacon on it which surprised me in comparison to other shops that give you like one strip and one tiny egg. Very filling to be one item. It could have used a bit more seasoning/flavor for my personal taste but I still enjoyed it after jazzing it up myself. The cashier was kind despite it being an early Saturday morning rush. The storefront has a bit of an older feel like the type of place your grandparents would own but I think it adds character. Would go again and try another dish. read more

Cane for an event here an I can't wait to come back to eat breakfast. I got to try the salt bread chicken salad sandwich. And it was amazing!!!!! The salt bread was so fluffy and salty and paired very well with the chicken salad. The chicken salad was so flavorful and delicious. The service here was so friendly !! The owner was super sweet and even gave us a spinach pastry. Overall, I cannot wait to be back and try their super viral salt bread. read more

Came in for brunch a few weekends ago. We got there around 10am and got a seat easily, but it filled up quickly after that. We got a classic plate and a chocolate chip pancake. Loved this spot - classic breakfast spot and great service! Plus free parking - a rare find in Decatur! read more

First visit after it changed hands. This little breakfast place was busy on a late Saturday morning. I tried the fried chicken on a biscuit with unsalted home fries. I like my fries unsalted as I find fries are usually heavily salted. Previously (before it changed hands) they couldn't accommodate my request because they were precooked. This time they did. And when my dish came,, their fries were crispy and unsalted. The chicken tenders were lighted battered and most, and the biscuit was huge! Took the biscuit home. My husband had the chicken salad, it was surrounded by fruits. I've had this before and it was good. NOTE: chicken salad does not contain nuts. Yay. Service was fast and staff was friendly. Left full and happy. read more

been dying to try and it was so good! such a classic breakfast and such a great staff of people. the owner took time to talk with us and was just nice! shoutout to our sever Lisa, she was great !!! read more

On the news I heard this place was a staple of Decatur and was closing soon. I wanted to check it out before this happened. This place is very casual - order at the counter or table service. I did table service and ordered oatmeal, coffee, and bacon. All was pretty standard and the waiter for fairly attentive. THIS ISSUE: I received my check, the total was 11 and change, I gave by card to pay and when the receipt was brought back, I WAS CHARGED A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AMOUNT. The waiter didn't say anything about up-charging my card. When I looked at the receipt the prices were changed and the coffee was added. It seems he made a mistake and tried to correct it silently. Unfortunately, this is not the way. The changes should have clearly been communicated before charging my card. It felt very dishonest and shady. read more

I was pleasantly surprised. I arrived around 815am shortly after they opened at 730am. There were only a few people there. I was immediately seated and I chose outside. The waitress was very attentive. Everything I had to eat was very tasty. The French toast was fluffy and garnished with fruit. The eggs, chicken sausage and grits were delicious and cooked well. I will definitely return read more

I made a yelp account just to make this review. My biggest issue is honestly the owner. I started coming here a couple months ago from time to time. The food at least I have has been delicious. Sure, a bit pricey, but nonetheless delicious. The servers and workers are always very kind and helpful and tending to peoples' needs, it's the owner that has turned me away from coming back. Multiple times I have overheard her talk in such verbally abusive ways to some of her servers or workers, and right in earshot of the customers? It's very unprofessional. I am all here for constructive criticism, but she does not do that. The most recent time I was dining in, the server made such a small mistake at a table, and the owner came to the table, apologized to the table saying "sorry about her" in such a demeaning way to the server, then went to that server and gave her table away to another server, then continued to tell this server that her table was unhappy with her. Fun fact: they were not. I also have sat next to other customers who have also commented on the same things I've seen. She also talks about personal matters very publicly and some stuff she has said, especially with mental health, was deeply disturbing. Again, this has happened multiple times and it's clear some of it is personal. She is lucky most of the customers that come are not on the tech savvy side or else I think she would have more bad reviews due to her attitude. It's horrendous how the workers are treated and how gossipy and unprofessional she is with customers. read more

New owners with a more inviting menu. Good food and friendly people! Great to eat out in the shade, inside or take home.

What a surprise! Been in Decatur for 3 years and had never stopped by. Great selection of pastries, well lade breakfast foods, great biscuits, and great sticky buns. Glad there is a brunch/breakfast place with good prices still holding its own in Decatur after waffle house closed read more

If you weren't looking for the restaurant, you might miss it! This nondescript restaurant had an amazing variety of breakfast and lunch foods. It was hard to believe that with so many menu items, they could all be good! In our party of three, everyone enjoyed their menu items. Breakfast items included biscuits and gravy, pancakes, and of course, eggs. Another member of our party chose the chicken salad plate, and she enjoyed hers just as well. The restaurant is unassuming, which makes the food that much more enjoyable. With colorful flowers painted on the walls and charming mismatched silverware and plates, this restaurant exudes low maintenance and warmth. When you get a chance, pop in and pick up some delicious biscuits! read more

Recently moved out of state and have been DREAMING of the eggs bennies from this place The staff? Amazing. The food? Bomb. The prices? You'll look at your check and go wait did they forget to charge me for something? Bring back the fish in the tank though because they were on vacation the last time I stopped by. read more

New attitude-New Management! There was a grumpy long-time employee that had lead us to not eat here anymore. Heard there was new owner with new employees and man does it make a huge difference! Food was still super good and I hear they are going to make more changes like liquor license so you can soon get Mimosas and a possible, long needed refresh on the decor. Service was great and I think me and the hubby have a new breakfast spot close to home. As Patti Labelle would say "I'm feelin' good from my head to my shoes Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do I tidied up my point of view I got a new attitude I'm in control, my worries are few 'Cause I've got love like I never knew Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I got a new attitude" read more

What a wonderful breakfast place! I've passed by this place many times but never actually visited but happened to be staying at a nearby hotel and decided to walk over and try it out. I was greeted as soon as I walked in and had a minute to take in the restaurant. It was super busy for it to be like maybe 8 am??? I liked the homey feel of it and the lady at the register was so kind. Took me maybe two minutes from the time I walked in to place my order and then maybe another 8 to actually get my order so I would say it was pretty quick service. I took the stroll back to my room and was excited to try what I got. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on crossaint, a side of cheese grits, and a cinnamon roll (they looked sooo delicious in the glass case so I couldn't leave without taking one). The sandwich was delicious - the crossaint was flaky and warm and toasty and buttery, the egg was scrambled just the way I like, there was cheese that just melted on the sandwich and blended in well with the biggest piece of bacon. It was really a filling sandwich. The grits were less than stellar though. Yes there was cheese in it but there wasn't any kind of flavor or seasoning at all. I hadn't had such bland grits in a long time but I also understand sometimes maybe places just let people "doctor" their grits the way they want. Added a little butter, salt, and pepper and they were doable. I didn't try the cinnamon roll until the next day but it was pretty good (especially because I warmed it up) and wasn't super sweet. I'd definitely recommend this cute little gem! read more

Huge delicious cat head biscuits! Chose the jalapeño cheddar biscuit and was surprise to find the perfect level of heat and flavor! The waiter was attentive and knowledgeable. He filled our coffee cups regularly, asking each time if we needed anything else, without being intrusive or annoying. The ambiance was quaint and had a small cafe feel while having a variety of food on the menu! Don't be fooled by the strip mall facade. This place is awesome! read more

Checked out this place on a whim since it was close by. Found the menu deceptive, particularly the grilled chicken sandwich which is described as "marinated." There was not a single spec of seasoning on the chicken breast and it was completely bland. I asked the server what is was marinated in and apparently its just olive, salt and pepper It might also be the time of day I went (around 1pm) but I found their cookies rather hard and dry. read more

I've been to this breakfast spot several times but I feel like the quality and service has gone downhill over the years. On this particular occasion, I walked in to witness an argument between the manager and a patron. I'm not exactly sure what was going on but I think there was some sort of miscommunication between the customer and one of the cashiers. The cashier seem to be a little confused about what the customer was requesting and the manager stepped in. Instead of calming things down, the manager escalated the tension to the point where she and the customer were yelling at each other loudly and long enough that it attracted the attention of everyone in the diner Then, instead of showing good leadership and handling the matter professionally, the manager could be seen and heard criticizing and complaining about the customer to the other employees. She then proceeded to re-engage with the customer in an aggressive manner thus escalating the situation once again. In the meantime the rest of the staff was so focused on what was going on that they ignored their tables and the customers waiting to purchase items at the counter and just stood around talking amongst themselves. There was only one server that I could see who was actually working. The customer finally left; and instead of pulling the cashier aside to discuss the matter and how to handle it similar situations in the future, the manager proceeded to belittle and criticize the server. She even went so far as to insinuate that the fact that English was not the server's first language was the reason that he messed up the order. Upon seeing all of this, it makes a lot of sense as to why customer service has gotten so bad at this restaurant. I can't even tell you what I thought of the food because all I can remember is how poorly the manager behaved and how her lack of professionalism is reflected in the poor service that was given by the other staff members. I can't say that the staff was bad; I can only guess that their failures were are due to bad leadership and improper training read more

Came here for a Sunday brunch with my husband. We walked in and were greeted immediately and sat at a table. Our waitress was very sweet and nice and service was quick. They were out of cinnamon rolls and sticky buns by the time we got there but ordered a buttermilk biscuit that came with jam that was hot and tasty. We also ordered the french toast, veggie loaded potatoes, and the traditional southern breakfast. All the food came out pretty quickly and was nice and hot. The french toast was good and your standard french toast, nothing exceptional. The traditional southern breakfast plate was good as well. The veggie loaded potatoes were hot and delicious and very filling, just wish they were a little crispy. Ordered the half portion and was still a large amount! Plenty of seating inside and outside and plenty of parking as well. read more

Alas, Pastries A Go Go is a No No. We were looking forward to breakfast and coffee here, but the meal was a bust after they served us completely rancid milk. It was disgusting. Our server said that he also tried the milk to see what we had been through and confirmed that he too found it to be completely spoiled. It unfortunately literally left such a bad taste in my mouth that I could not eat the rest of my breakfast. I don't think I was missing much according to the rest of my family. Coffees were comped, whole meal should have been in my opinion. The server was friendly and apologetic and I did not want to lean into him too much but yelp, heed my warning and go somewhere else. I cringe to think of what was prepared with that milk before they realized how rotten it was. read more

Last time to patronage Pastries A GoGo!! Pretty obvious the new Owner could care less about what the kitchen is preparing for her Customers because she is never there!! You shouldn't be served a reheated biscuit left from the day b4 but this is what you get when they open the door at 7:30am!! The sausage had no flavor whatsoever and is definitely not in house made as the menu states!! Sad she has run this once wonderful place to dine in Decatur down but she has!! read more

located near downtown decatur with their own FREE parking lot, Pastries a go go is a fast casual breakfast. They have soo many affordable options and soo many delectable pastries! I got the traditional breakfast which comes with two eggs*, any style, your choices of bacon or sausage, toast Or biscuit, and grits or home fries! All for only 10.50! My friend got the eggs benedict ( only served on weekends) and instead of english muffins they use biscuits for the base SO YUM! They are shortstaffed and still gave us such great and speedy service for a saturday morning! Also lastly if you get there early enough today, you absolutely must try their sticky bun! It was like a pecan piece of heaven read more

Ah, Pastries a Go Go! When I think of tasty, low key brunch spots (because to be perfectly honest nothing on earth makes me nearly as angry as waiting for food while hungover, tired, and hot), THIS is where I dream of. I've been eating here for over a decade. My mother used to bring us here on weekends for their biscuits and gravy, and I cannot even begin to describe the disappointment I'd feel when we got there too late and they'd be sold out. Don't get me wrong - the rest of the menu is lovely as can be, and I've had plenty of enjoyable meals sans-B&G - but hot damn that dish just gets me going!! It reminds me of how my late grandmother made them both from scratch for us when we were small. OK so with that lead up, you'll assume I insist you order the B&G - and you're completely right, unless I'm next in line behind you. Then back off!! Real talk, these biscuits are monsters so a half order will usually do the trick. The pancakes and the omelets are also both perfect every time, and highly customizable. They don't offer any fancy, frou-frou coffee drinks like cappuccinos or lattes, but they'll offer a solid cup of coffee! Come for the food, stay for the dreamy patio and the friendliest staff ever. This one's a winner, all around! read more

We just had delivery for 30 employees and everyone raved about how good the food was. My tuna on croissant was the best version I have had! I have been getting great coffee and breakfast here for years but now they will be our Go To place for lunch. Great work! read more

I don't understand the appeal of this place. The pastry case is charming and offers a variety of pastries that look appealing, but I can't speak to their taste since I didn't try any. The dishes are overpriced and made with very low-quality ingredients, resulting in little to no flavor. You could easily prepare a better breakfast at home. There's nothing special about the meals here; even Waffle House offers more flavor. read more

Pastries A Go Go wasn't the pastries I was expecting, but still a solid breakfast/brunch. I'd had a pretty rough Saturday morning, so a comfort food breakfast was just what I needed. The restaurant was pretty packed when we got here mid-morning, but we were seated without a wait indoors (thank god we didn't have to sit on the patio in Atlanta summer heat). I ordered the eggs Benedict because I have no idea how to poach my own eggs or whisk up my own hollandaise. While it wasn't an Insta-worthy presentation, it was hearty. There was quite a bit of hollandaise drenching the perfectly poached eggs, but there was so much sauce I ended up scraping some of it off. The breakfast my dining buddy got was basic and nothing special, but also pretty affordable. Overall, the breakfast isn't anything to rave over. However, it's a solid breakfast diner with good prices. Next time, I may have to go for just the pastries that I didn't get to try this time around and grab my hipster brunch elsewhere. read more

Such friendly staff! That was the first thing that struck me here. Very kind and welcoming. I came here for a quick bite to-go before heading back to work. I had a bacon, egg and Gouda bagel sandwich and I was very impressed with how delicious it was! It was really above expectations. Will absolutely return in the future. read more

I've never been treated worse than this place, and let me preface this review by saying that I never write reviews on yelp. I also spent 10 years in the service industry and as such feel I am very forgiving as I unsmderstand what a bad day is like in this industry. However... My family arrived at 12:45, eagerly awaiting a delicious brunch recommended by friends. However, upon arrival the person behind the counter - without even greeting us with a simple "hello" or " welcome" - loudly announced that they were no longer serving as if we were not deserving of a formal greeting. I've never felt so unwelcome at a restaurant. Given they don't close until 2 I can only assume their laziness was the reason for cutting service so soon. I'll never set foot in this crummy establishment again as I've never been treated so rudely at a restaurant. Horrible, horrible, horrible. At least have the courtesy of greeting a party and then informing them your lazy. You can keep your pastries and shove them where the sun don't shine. read more

Review is only on Bob's Loaded Veggie Potatoes** Why, you ask? Because this is literally all I ever order. Why, you ask again? because these potatoes are breakfast, brunch, lunch, and even sometimes dinner. They have a 1/2 portion and full portion. Both are too big for 1 sitting, but I like to have 3 days worth, so I go full portion size. These breakfast potatoes are chunky. None of those pre-cut perfectly cubed previous frozen types. These are REAL potatoes cut in chunks. They are roasted up with some crisp still to them and then the toppings are added. AHHH! A breakfast Sundae! Sauteed tomatoes, Julianned zucchini, bell peppers, onions are like the sprinkles. They the cheese...oh yes! The smothering of cheese. It is like the hot fudge and caramel on my breakfast sundae! I always order to go and the girl behind the counter has the sweetest voice. It is just so charming! read more

One of our fave local spots. I almost hesitated to review for fear of it getting too busy. They have had rushes when we have dined there. More often than not, they aren't overly full where you have to wait to get seating. Oh, and they have the most charming outdoor seating. It's partially shaded and enclosed enough we can let our toddler move around a bit and not be in others' way. There are lovely plants outside. If I were a little bit younger I might say, "it's a whole vibe" - because it totally is. read more

Love the loaded potatoes for lunch. Service is quick and staff are friendly. Great for breakfast, brunch and lunch.

I feel like a place called Pastries A GO GO should sell actual pastries. This place is more of a bakery. Muffins, bagels, cookies and doughnuts. Not a single pastry. No danish, or anything that resembles a pastry here. read more

This place is like going to your grand mother house in the country, it is good ole southern food. A great neighborhoods spot, the staff is super friendly and most have been working there for years. Let me first start off by saying that I have a bit of a bias about this place, since I frequent this place often. It is one of the most underrated breakfast spots, in Atlanta. It is a community gem and a must try for biscuit lovers. I know some places claim to have been voted as having the best biscuit in Atlanta, but clearly Pastries did not enter that year. This is for real biscuit eaters, not the ones who are watching their weight and want a small taste of a biscuit. But if you are watching your weight, this is a cheat day item. This thing is the size and girth of a lumber jacks hand and not the new lumberjacks with modern technology. I am talking old school lumberjacks who chopped trees with just an axe. They are home made and you can taste the baking soda and maybe even some crisco. One of my favorites is the traditional breakfast, two eggs, grits or potatoes, bacon or sausage, and toast or a biscuit; I ALWAYS get a biscuit. The biscuit and gravy (served only on the weekends) is another favorite. A regular order comes with two biscuits, even I draw the line somewhere. I get a half and order (1 biscuit) and an order of house made sausage (2 patties) and gravy on the side. The gravy has sausage in it and is tasty; I get this when I plan to go straight home and lay down. I split the biscuit, put one patty on each biscuits, then pour the gravy on top. I sit back survey the greatness, take a swig of water, take a breath and dig in. Another favorite are their breakfast sandwiches, it may sound trivial and maybe it should be, because how do you mess up a sandwich; but some people do. I get the bacon, egg (over hard) and cheese (Swiss) on a butter croissant. I can make it last 45 minutes with no distractions. Just me my coffee and my BEC. But you gotta get there, because they go fast. * Note: If I am in the restaurant and I see they are low on croissants, I sneak to the counter and ask them to hold one aside for me. It is everyone for themselves. I will say there pancakes are a little large for me, it takes up a plate, but that is just me. I have started walking to Pastries, I feel like it balances the scales of what I am about to indulge in. Also. all of their pastries are made by the owner and it is not just biscuits, they have mini cakes, cookies, bagels, croissants, muffins. If you are ever in Decatur, stop by; they have a great outdoor patio (yes pets allowed). read more

We had an enjoyable lunch at Pastries A Go Go today. I was looking forward to trying their Ruben, however, they only serve breakfast on Sundays. I opted for the Southwestern Omelette instead which was very good. Served with an incredible biscuit which literally melted in my mouth. Next time I'm going to request bacon in the omelette instead of ham - I understand this swap can be "life changing". They have a very nice patio which would make for a great leisurely brunch or lunch. And do plan on a leisurely meal as the pace here is rather deliberate. Everyone here is incredibly friendly and you feel right at home immediately. read more
