If you simply utter the phrase, "Let's get brunch," you're mine. Brunch is a word that should be in everyone's vocabulary. Don't trust those who don't brunch, something's definitely wrong with them. Here are some of my favorite places to indulge in savory, feel-good food!
1. First Watch
Ah I love this place! It's in Kennesaw, so a little bit out of Atlanta, but definitely the perfect spot for KSU students like me. Their fresh juices are the bomb, my favorite is called 'Day Glow.'
2. Pauley's Crepe Bar
Oh crepe, am I in Europe or the US? This trendy crepe bar gives you the option of sitting outside, and it's in a prime location for people-watching. Nevertheless, they've got sweet and salty crepes (aka fluffy layers of goodness) to satisfy your cravings. The chicken caesar crepe is AMAZING.
3. West Egg Cafe
French toast, biscuits, you name it- they've got it. West Egg is a classic that you just can't pass up. It's usually pretty crowded but it's worth the wait!
4. Bread & Butterfly
If you thought Pauley's was European, then this place will blow you away. Located in the Inman Park neighborhood, the simplistic menu and decor will take your aesthetic to the next level.
5. Rise-n-Dine
This has got to be one of the most charming brunch spots I've been to. The flowers and mason jars make you feel right at home. It's a great place to stop by if you're near Emory (it's literally right next to the university).
6. Atlanta Breakfast Club
Did someone say chicken and waffles? Probably the best combination EVER and you won't be disappointed in this place's version. Plus, the name is adorable. What's not to love?
7. Cafe + Velo
Do yourself a favor and order one of their fluffy croissant sandwiches. This place is fairly new, and definitely worth stopping by, especially if you're looking for somewhere to stop during your morning bike ride. This cafe is cyclist friendly, and an awesome place to hang out!
