A Taste of Heaven
All-day bakery-cafe where dessert is as important as breakfast.

Notable Picks

$$ Andersonville
An all-day bakery-cafe that locals treat like a neighborhood clubhouse: breakfast plates up front, then cakes, cookies, and cupcakes for the take-home win. It’s strongest when you pair one savory anchor with a slice or scone, so the meal feels like a full spread without over-ordering.
Must-Try Dishes: Katie Cakes (signature slice), Brioche French toast, Hot chocolate
What makes it special: All-day bakery-cafe where dessert is as important as breakfast.
$$ Uptown
An Uptown all-day café where breakfast wins on range and comfort—especially if you’re ordering with vegan/vegetarian needs in mind. The room leans eclectic and casual, and the best meals come from a focused order: one sweet plate, one savory plate, and coffee, then stop.
Must-Try Dishes: Vegan French toast, Eggs Benedict, Vegan chocolate chip pancakes
What makes it special: A big, diet-friendly breakfast menu that still lands like comfort food.
$$ Andersonville
A bright Andersonville brunch room that runs best when you treat it like a classic comfort breakfast spot—one signature egg plate plus one sweet share. It’s a crowd-friendly choice with a menu built for repeat visits, not one-off novelty orders.
Must-Try Dishes: Eggs Benedict, French toast, Breakfast potatoes
What makes it special: A repeatable Andersonville brunch menu built for big, familiar favorites.
$ Andersonville
A pie-and-quiche café that’s built for reliable comfort: big slices, sturdy crusts, and a rotating lineup that rewards showing up hungry. It shines when you pick one signature slice and keep the rest simple—don’t scatter your order across too many desserts.
Must-Try Dishes: Key lime pie, Polka dot cheesecake, Quiche (daily selection)
What makes it special: Old-school pie shop energy with serious slice variety and consistency.
$$ Uptown
A Mexican breakfast-and-lunch café that wins on comfort, consistency, and a menu built for regulars. The move is chilaquiles plus one of their signature shakes—treat it as a cozy daytime anchor, not a rush job.
Must-Try Dishes: Chilaquiles, Oatmeal shake, Chorizo scramble
What makes it special: Mexican daytime cooking with cult-favorite chilaquiles and shakes.
$$ Andersonville
A wine bar that earns its spot on a breakfast list by offering structured brunch packages that feel like a sit-down occasion. The move is to lean into the composed buffet/entrée format and let it be a slower, more social meal—more celebratory brunch than quick breakfast.
Must-Try Dishes: Brioche French toast, Deviled eggs, Cheesy potato hashbrowns
What makes it special: A brunch-format wine bar experience instead of a standard breakfast run.

Worthy Picks

$$ Uptown
A newer Uptown breakfast option built around generous portions and a broad, diner-leaning menu. It’s best when you keep the order tight—one skillet or hash plus coffee—so the meal stays hot and focused instead of sprawling into too many side plates.
Must-Try Dishes: Chilaquiles, French toast, Breakfast hash
What makes it special: A straightforward, portion-forward Uptown breakfast with modern-diner energy.
