The Little Tart Bakeshop — Restaurant in Atlanta

Today for the first time visited this coffee shop, I want to share my impressions! At the entrance I was surprised by the large number of people in line, but the lane moved very quickly surprisingly, which pleased me very much. Closer to the cash register there is a showcase with baked goods. There's a huge variety of sweet baked goods, all looking very tasty. There are also several breakfast sandwiches available. I chose a bacon sandwich and some other sweet pastries unfortunately I don't remember the name, there were 3 pieces, one was bought right in front of me and I ordered one of the remaining two. My wife ordered a meringue and my son ordered a croissant with chocolate. Of the drinks, my wife and I got cappuccinos and my son got hot chocolate. We sat down to wait for our order at a table. They brought us the pastries my wife and son ordered and my bacon sandwich. Also the waitress said that unfortunately my sweet pastry was sold to someone else (both pieces?) and she would not be able to bring it to me. I asked her to bring me something else instead of this pastry. So we started our breakfast. The sandwich wasn't bad, quite a lot of bacon, bacon well fried not stringy, crispy. The croissant with chocolate was empty almost inside as if someone had soiled his finger in the chocolate and wiped it inside, you can consider that there was no chocolate there at all. At this point we were brought our drinks. The cappuccino was terribly bitter, no sugar and they didn't bring sugar either. The meringue in turn was very sweet (expected) but my wife could not eat it. But my son ate it, kids love sweets. Meanwhile, I finished my sandwich and finished my coffee, but no one brought me the pastry. My piece was given to someone else and they didn't even bring me anything in return. All in all, it's not a good coffee shop. If you have never been here before, it is definitely worth going once, but we will look for another one that...

Favorite bakery in the city. Croissants are perfectly good but there are so many other things to choose from. The seasonal galettes are a fave. Note: Truly SEASONAL means you only get what's locally in season at small farms, so in November, that's just apples. It's important to understand that Little Tart uses only seasonal fruit, so don't expect what you've come to think of in a fruit cup or what other places call "seasonal". Little Tart walks the walk, which is both more labor intensive and expensive. Savory pastries, gougeres, scones (wish they were not iced) ... All well made and great, and I love having the savory option. Pecan tart is a crumbly disc of delicious. Cookies all fabulous, including sables. Good loaves of bread. They offer great coffee drinks (it's a little light roast for my taste, but that's subjective). They do local Portrait Coffee pour overs. Great little list of adult beverages, including French Pear Cider (hard to find here!). Very busy until about 2pm, though they sell out of a lot by then. Pastry is labor-intensive, esp. layered dough like croissants. Have you ever SEEN croissants being made? You should! I can't recall if they offer half price pastries at the end of the day, but I think they used to (that's so they can serve only fresh). There's a service charge to cover employee insurance (I agree, as a former industry worker...you can't keep good people these days without insurance). This is a long review, but that's because Little Tart has a lot to offer, and the more you know, the more you appreciate it. That's why I've been a fan since I moved here 3 years ago. My only critique is that they need a Midtown location 😂. All 3 locations are good, but Grant Park is my fave for variety and space. There's also a counter when inside and outside tables are full. And, oh, yes, they are eco-friendly...

The little tart with big personality. This trendy bakery is absolutely necessary for your life. It is tucked away behind what I would deem a hipster feeling neighborhood.

First, the real reason...the bakery. Breads, pastries, and....croissants. So, I began with a hibiscus rose bun. I was attracted to the rose color paired with its delicate look. Very sugared. The attendant suggested a croissant. This turned out to be a buttery flakey chocolate delight. Finally, I ordered a house-made English muffin sandwich. Very good...

Hibiscus bun - "A" Chocolate Croissant - A+ Sammy - B Blackberry Danish - "A"

My friend ordered a breakfast sandwich too. His score was a little higher eeking out a B+. He stated the English muffin was good, although he felt it was more like an Australian toaster. The eggs, cheese, and bacon were lacking. He also had a butter croissant. He described this not to be shared as a Nirvana experience. HE quickly devoured the croissant. It was only remembered by a few crumbs. He also had a latte which this Coffee Snob rated A (This means a solid A+). He had it with Oat milk. A blackberry cheese Danish was divided between us. It was scored an "A". The blackberry jam was tart and you could tasted the puree fruit.

I arrived hungry and walked into a very impressive space. Well lite with large industrial windows. It is neat to choose a table or spot at the bar. I also liked the ability to see into the kitchen. The patrons were very eclectic. A lot of laptops and remote workers sipping on coffee. Come hungry leaved sated. This is truly a hidden gem as it is tucked behind...
