Highland Bakery has three locations but the one in this review is located in Old Fourth Ward neighborhood. Finding a parking spot could be somewhat difficult so expect to do some light walking and well verse in parallel parking. Owner of Highland Bakery, Stacey Eames, started her career in selling coffee around Atlanta to having the place to visit for breakfast and baked goods.
Five Guys – Duluth, GA
Unlike In-N-Out Burger franchise that can only be found on the West Coast, We have Five Guys that started on East Coast and that they are slowly spreading across the United States due to the establishment providing high quality burgers. If you’re health conscious and you’re looking to grab a bite before yoga class, Five Guys is not for you. If you’re expecting high quality burger that rivals In-N-Out and don’t mind the wait while enjoying the free peanuts available, you can finally call this place your new home.
Antico Pizza Napoletana – Atlanta, GA
Antico Pizza Napoletana offers true authentic Italian pizza without the extra cost of flying out to Italy to get one. It sits cozily at corner of Hemphill Avenue and Ethel Street close to Georgia Tech where finding a parking spot can become quite difficult around this area. What makes Antico Pizza different from the other pizzeria is that all of their ingredients come from Italy itself. Another added bonus about this place is that you can bring your own alcohol. This is a big plus for my fellow alcoholics.
Fontaine’s Oyster House – Atlanta, GA
My friends and I have visited Fontaine’s Oyster House in the past multiple times for our drinking spree down at Virginia Highland. Just for you guys that don’t know about Virginia Highland, it was rated best overall neighborhood in Atlanta by Atlanta Magazine. The area has MANY bars, restaurants, and small niches shops all within walking distance from each other. The only reason why I decided to dine at Fontaine’s Oyster House instead of drinking there was their special on a dozen oysters for 5 bucks every Tuesday. 5!!! Bucks!!!
J. Christopher’s – Duluth, GA
Every time I drive up North on Peachtree Industrial Blvd in the morning, I have always seen J. Christopher’s with a crowded parking lot and sometimes even a line stretching outside. J. Christopher’s really caters to the people that love breakfast and early lunch. Good luck finding a dinner menu at this establishment because it’s completely nonexistent. J. Christopher’s has 14 locations with the majority of them residing in Georgia. For a breakfast/brunch restaurant, it’s pretty expensive and I would only come here once in a while to start my day off with something fantastic.
