illy Atlantic Station — Restaurant in Atlanta

It was such a pleasant surprise to find an illy café at Atlantic Station! It's a welcome addition to the variety of stores, and a great pit stop for a coffee pick me up after lots of shopping or before a show.

Order: Café Latte, Regular coffee with room for milk, Cappuccino, Nutella Croissant

If you like your espresso beverages on the more milky side like I do, you will really enjoy the drinks here. The coffee is on the lighter side. Very nice variety of pastries and lunch food. Prices were reasonable, especially for the lunch food. I didn't get to try any of the lunch food but I would definitely try it next time. The Nutella Croissant I got was spot on and perfect with my coffee. The line was long that day, but the workers seemed joyful and happy to be there, and we were greeted with cheer despite the crowd! My mother wanted more coffee to top off her cup and we were able to get it topped off with no issues despite how busy it was.

The atmosphere is lively and positive, with lots of different kinds of seating (large table for big parties, booth seating, smaller tables). The decor is modern European and feels clean. I would definitely come back and recommend this café as a part of your future Atlantic...

I brought my daughter here after shopping for her graduation outfit as a treat. We both ordered two different hot coffees. When my daughter went inside to get our order, one coffee was iced. My daughter simply told the Barista that we ordered two hot drinks. She was told it would be corrected.I went inside to get the corrected hot drink, and they made the wrong coffee drink. When I told her that it still wasn’t our order, not only were the two female barista’s on staff extremely rude about it, they acted like my daughter had told them what kind of hot drink we needed. She had not. She simply said she had not ordered an iced drink. Then these two barista’s proceeded to talk loudly about how somehow their error in making the wrong drink twice was my fault. Whoever manages this place probably would not want these two people representing them. If an employee makes an error – – two times – – the customer should never be yelled at. And it was not a complicated order.I was not rude, but simply asked for it to be corrected. I did not appreciate being talked to rudely And then to be blamed as they complained about having to correct the order while I was standing there waiting...

I've been eagerly anticipating the opening of this coffee shop all summer, ever since spotting the 'Coming Soon' sign. Now that they've finally opened, I'm thrilled! Its close proximity to my home is incredibly convenient; I love being able to walk over, grab a coffee, and settle down to work.

The ambiance is ideal for productivity, featuring comfortable seating, soothing background music, and exceptional customer service. This spot is quickly becoming my go-to for a great work environment, further sweetened by its location.

So far, I've tried their Almond Rose Latte, and it was nothing short of outstanding—a truly delightful new experience.

Supporting local businesses is important to me, and this coffee shop is a real treasure for the Atlantic Station community. Anyone looking for top-quality coffee should definitely give it a try. And if you're just visiting, expect a warm welcome. Don't miss out on what they have to offer!

The only minor issue has been the wait time for coffee, but I'm confident they'll address this soon, perhaps by adding another espresso...
