    Dirty Matcha w/ blueberry compote and Vietnamese Coffee
    Djenne V.

    First time trying Perks! It was cozy inside with outdoor tables as well. Cool place to get some work done. Plenty of parking in the plaza. The Dirty Matcha was good, the blueberry compote was the star without it the matcha was a little bland. The Vietnamese coffee was great, strong & rich! Would definitely come back to do some work.

    Unfortunately the coffee wasn't good - tried to replace it with a mango tajin drink and that wasn't good either. The service was nice though . Vibe wasn't bad but seemed like it was in the 90s.

    Perks Coffee is also NomStation and they offer a wide range of beverages from both businesses. The staff is incredibly welcoming and fast with their service. I attached some photos of the interior and menus. Many options to choose from! The sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich can come on various breads of your choosing: wheat, white, bagel, everything bagel, and croissant. No biscuits. The sandwich was Made to order, no prepackaged, warm, flakey, and sausage is juicy! Their pastries can also be heated and makes it really yummy! Really enjoy their cold brew from perks and taro drink from NomStation side. Of course that's just my favorites. Parking is ample and about 5 outdoor tables.

    Came by here to grab coffee with friends the other day since we were in the area! ***LOCATION*** There were a decent amount of spots to parallel park out front, but it could be difficult to find parking if it were busy. This was a Sunday afternoon. ***ATMOSPHERE*** The vibe was really cool! Loved the decor and all of the colorful packaging at atmosphere as a whole! It was quiet and chill! Plenty of spots to get work done or sit with friends! ***FOOD/DRINKS*** I didn't eat, but my friend got a pastry and he seemed to enjoy it! Our coffees were good! They only have very particular flavors which is kind of their thing. I think it's cool but I was not in the middle for anything wild that day haha. I went with a plain iced latte (I LOVE that they have simple syrup at the sugar bar, so you can easily add exactly how much you want to cold drinks. I have never seen that at a coffee shop before) My bf got a iced latte I think it had habanero sugar or something like that and lavender vanilla I want to say. Can't remember the exact name. I tasted it and it was surprisingly not bad. I definitely would've drank it, but still did prefer my plain latte. ***CONCLUSION*** They don't have traditional syrups. No vanilla or anything like that sooo if you don't want a plain coffee or a very specialty flavor, I wouldn't recommend. Buuuut for plain coffee and the atmosphere it was nice :)

    Stopped by while my dog was at the vet nearby and am so happy I did! The staff was incredibly friendly and the vibes inside were cute and cozy. The menu is amazing from coffee, smoothies, matcha, tea, and even taro milk tea! It was early when I came so I only got an iced matcha latte with marshmallow syrup in it and it was delicious. Very excited to come back and try the taro milk tea and other drinks!

    I appreciated that they were open on the 4th of July, but I left feeling the opposite of perky. It seems like Perks is probably a great place to go for smoothies or sugary drinks, but don't go here if you actually like coffee. They had multiple chocolate mocha options, so maybe those are better. My dad got iced latte and I got a cold brew with oat milk, and somehow both of them were so bad they were undrinkable. My cold brew was bitter and acidic and burnt tasting, which I don't even know how that's possible since it was cold brew - maybe they made me the wrong drink? The ice was also just one large block of ice cubes that had melted and refrozen together to form a blob so the straw wouldn't even go in. The employees were friendly and cheerful, and hopefully with some better coffee and barista training Perks Coffee can be drinkable in the future.

    What a yummy treat this morning. I have to say the service was spot on this morning. The young lady taking the order was so nice and quickly took care to set up my order. She was juggling several different customers and super friendly. Ordered my friend a bon bon and myself a cappuccino. Added a coffee muffin and she offered to warm it up. Delicious.

    After living in the neighborhood for nearly four years, I am almost embarrassed to admit that I…read moreonly started visiting Emerald City Bagels this year. It has quickly become one of my favorite neighborhood breakfast spots. My go-to order is the bacon, egg, and cheese on a classic bagel. The ingredients always taste fresh, the bacon is flavorful, and the egg is consistently cooked perfectly. It is a simple sandwich done exceptionally well. During my most recent visit, they were nearly sold out of several bagel options, including my usual classic bagel. I was disappointed because I had my mind set on my regular order, but one of the employees went out of his way to accommodate me. He offered to use a salted bagel and remove the salt so I could still enjoy my sandwich as close to my usual order as possible. I really appreciated his willingness to help rather than simply telling me they were out. The service has always been friendly, and the atmosphere is welcoming. Even when they are busy or running low on inventory, the staff still makes an effort to take care of their customers. It may have taken me four years to finally stop in, but Emerald City Bagels has quickly become a neighborhood favorite. The bacon, egg, and cheese never disappoints, and thoughtful service like I received on my last visit is exactly what keeps people coming back.

    After seeing Brooklyn Bagel & Deli come up a lot on TikTok and Google, we decided to try it since…read moreI'm always looking for a good NY-style bagel. Walking in, it was super busy and the line was long, but they moved very fast. It had that classic deli feel with shelves full of fresh bagels, pastries, and a huge breakfast/lunch menu. I ordered an everything bagel toasted with regular cream cheese and lox. We also got a ham & cheese sandwich on the jalapeño cheddar bagel. The only thing that threw me off was the service while ordering. The guy taking my order kept going on his phone during the interaction. I explained that I wanted the nova sandwich style but without the tomato, onion, or capers because I still wanted it closed-face with extra lox instead of the open-face version. He told me, "that's just a weird way to order it," which honestly felt unnecessary. The bagel itself was huge and heavy with a thick shmear of cream cheese. The lox tasted good, although I wish it was layered in slices instead of smaller pieces. Still, it came pretty close to that NY bagel taste I was hoping for. The jalapeño cheddar bagel was actually spicy and packed with jalapeños. We had to take some out, but the sandwich overall was really good. I'd definitely come back and would probably try another location too.

    Classic 4-Star Breakfast Spot…read more This was a really solid breakfast spot. The atmosphere was popping. I went on a Saturday and it was crowded in the best way you can tell this is a place people genuinely like and come back to. I got a bagel sandwich and a plain bagel. I'll admit I made a bit of a weird combo (that's on me), but both were still really good overall. Price was fair and affordable, which always helps. Nothing that absolutely blew me away, but everything was done well. Overall: A true 4-star spot through and through I'd definitely come back.

It's light years ahead of J Christopher's, White Hall, First Watch, you game it. Now you won't get a fancy coffee or Instagram able photo, but you'll get solid food. I've been eating here for years and genuinely crave it about every three weeks...it's that good. You really can't go wrong. Portions are generous especially for the price, service is consistently solid (though wait times can vary, it's popular!), and with so many locations you can usually find one nearby. They're also great about modifying cooking oils for those of us who prefer olive oil or other healthier options. My go-to is an omelette or the nova scramble, with home fries -- big, crispy potato chunks with sautéed peppers and onions -- plus a side of toast, English muffin, or bagel (or swap for salad or fruit). My husband swears by their latkes, too. Classic, satisfying, and a total win for brunch lovers.

Housesitting brought me to the neighborhood, and now I might have to make the trek regularly. I bought three sourdough bagels and a brown butter coconut cookie. My blood sugar was low and I absolutely could not resist eating the cookie on my way home. Wow.. It was so chewy and delicious. Both flavors come through really nicely. On to the bagels... These are, by far, the best bagels I've had in Atlanta. Honestly, they put the chain bagel spots to shame. The interior is really open and has that beautiful sourdough tang. They're perfectly crusted on the outside and provide a nice base for a spread/schmear. I'm so so impressed. Thank you Evergreen. I'll be back.

Wish this was heated up though, I feel like it would've been better. - Oxtail Meat Pie: Similar to the sausage roll with a generous amount of meat but wish it was heated up. It was pretty hefty. - Strawberry Pistachio and Coconut Cream Danishes: Both were so good! I loved the crispy and crunchy danishes and the flavors were great in these. I like the savory pistachios and the creamy and crumbly coconut cream. - Chocolate Chip Cookie: This was such a delicious cookie! Perfectly made in between soft and firm and textures. The sea salt on top was chef's kiss. The lines move pretty fast. There's nowhere to sit and lounge, so you would need to take these pastries elsewhere to enjoy. The staff is also really nice and patient when my friend and I were trying to decide on pastries. Overall, I think these pastries would do good in an air fryer/oven. I would come back, but bring the pastries home to warm and crisp them up a bit. I also really want to try their burger which is only sold on the weekend at certain times!

They have a great parking lot but my GPS had me going in the wrong way so I circled the block one before arriving. The interior is cozy but there are plenty of tables. I sat by the door to eat in but I sat next to where the to go orders are picked up. It was busy. I went for a very basic breakfast of a toasted everything bagel with butter and cream cheese and a coffee. The bagel was soft yet crunchy and the toppings delicious. Regular drip coffee was good too. I really want to go back soon, this is great!

    Whewww, I canNOT believe America has arrived at normalizing paying $20 for basic breakfast fare…read more The world is changing and I've clearly been under a rock, as I don't normally eat breakfast. But I was out and about early in the morning and decided to stop by here right as they were opening. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad. But I definitely had a moment where I had to ask myself if that was a $20 well spent. Bronx Bagel Buggy is a SMALL deli in a middle-American Atlanta neighborhood that might still think it's in NYC. Hate to say it but this is why many southerners are lowkey pissed with the massive migration of northerners down here... I got the Standard (Bacon, Egg, Cheddar) on a rosemary salt bagel. While the bagel was tasty, the inside of the sandwich was not. Limp, soggy bacon. Cheap, McDonald's style egg patty. This sandwich should be $6 at most. The bagel itself was delicious and very well done -- this is clearly where they are putting in the effort and I have no qualms with it. But next time I'd just get the bagel by itself and skip paying more for what felt like not-so-great ingredients. I also got a chai latte with oat milk. Well made, but surely nothing spectacular. Holy cow... $6+ for that, too. Oat milk is an extra $.70. I don't know whether to be disgruntled with the owner or the local/federal taxes that has places charging like this LOL. It honestly just feels excessive, especially for the area it's in (love you Chamblee but I love you especially because you're affordable and not built around pretentiousness). Service was nice and it was clean when I went in. Perhaps the lunch sandwiches are more worth it? I am all here for spending a pretty penny on food but I am lost on this one.

    Terminal T location, there are several in the airport. Great bagels in my opinion, especially when…read moreyou take the fact you're in an airport into account, and obviously those bagels are being brought in from likely a different location in Atlanta daily. Also of course, you're in an airport so the prices are inflated and this is more expensive than your average bagel pretty much anywhere. I ordered an onion bagel with veggie cream cheese and an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. The morning rush was just beginning as I had an early flight. Maybe 4 people ahead of me in line, and after ordering my wait was about 5 minutes. The store is very poorly laid out, but I honestly don't know how else they would do it without a significant remodel. It's long, thin, and you order at the back so there is just a mass of people, and it's not clear who is waiting to order, and who is just waiting for theirs to be ready. Lots of people are complaining in reviews about some rude lady, the person who took my order was a woman, but she was fine. Just trying to take orders as quick as possible to keep things moving... that's her job in a busy airport. Anyhow, both my bagels were fresh (clearly brought in that morning), warmed up gently, and delicious. They had that brilliant fresh bagel doughy texture that I love so much, and the flavors were right. Lots of cream cheese was applied to both, and I liked both flavors. Overall, I would definitely stop here for a bagel again when in the ATL airport.

Staff was generally uninterested in assisting customers & worked slowly while also scrolling their phones. It did not seem very clean, but wasn't the worst place I've seen at the airport. While they sell coffee, they do not have cream! Only those packets of gross creamer. The bagel was mediocre. Under toasted for sure. There isn't a large selection of places to get coffee around this gate, but I'd definitely suggest the "Piece of Cake" shop instead of Goldbergs if you find yourself needing a coffee around A gates.

Took WAY too long for two AS IS bagels that I could have actually grabbed with tongs myself from the open baskets, but not knowing if that was allowed, I didn't.
