Big City Bread Cafe - Cafe in Athens - 393 N Finley St Studio C, USA

coffee wasn't great, took 20 minutes to serve it when there were only two parties there. spent $6 on a blueberry muffin only to be served a plain, stale, blueberry-less muffin 😞 bummer

This place was AMAZING! There was a little line, but it moved very quickly. We barely had a time to set down before our food was being brought to us. The French Toast is amazing, and it makes you want more. And if you're not an alcoholic drinker like me, get the Orange Creamescicle drink! The only problem with it was that there wasn't free refills! 😋 The outside dining area is amazing on a beautiful day. If you haven't tried this place, you must!

Their system is horrible and we waited in line for over an hour before ordering. Given it was a busy Sunday, but there are several ways they could have sped things up like having someone besides the cashier getting drinks and having salt, pepper, and other condiments on the tables. Once we ordered, the food was out relatively quick though. Food was good, but portions are small for what you pay.

I have not been here in years and it still has the same vibes. Yummy food and relaxing atmosphere. Parking is still difficult but not a complete turnoff. Definitely worth a visit, especially to sit out on the patio.

I have been several ties and tried much of the menu and will confidently state it is AMAZING! Great atmosphere, speedy service! Grits and biscuits are AMAZING. Highly recommend trying out this restaurant. Be careful when pulling into the parking lot in the front as things are super tight, you are best to legally park elsewhere.

Apparently I'm very late to this party, but this place is great. I got the 2 egg brunch with Old Bay potatoes and a biscuit. 1.5 of my eggs were cooked perfectly. The biscuit was super dense, but the taste and texture were on point. The Old Bay potatoes stole the show! I could make a meal of just potatoes. I would go back just for them, so I definitely recommend people checking this place out if you haven't.

Delicious food and atmosphere! We had the cheese omelette and the crème brûlée latte. I can’t wait to be back!

Parking: they put up a sign warning customers shouldn't park in the nearby Wendy's parking lot in case of towing. I don't think they have their own parking lot but there are plenty of street parking available in front of this cafe; Or you can park at a nearby apartment complex just 1 block down the road for a quick meal :). The line was long on a Sunday morning (from the counter to the outdoor sitting outside, we waited for about 30-40mins). It's different from other brunch places in that you have to wait in line to order your food, and then get a table later. But once we ordered, the food came out pretty quick (~5-10mins). I got a Bird's nest (a slice of bread with a fried egg in the middle) with sausage and half a french toast. My friend got a Quiche plate with potatoes and biscuit. Overall, the food was quite good: quiche/biscuit was soft and french toast was right amount of sweetness. Staffs were friendly; however, they were a bit short-staffed when we came so we had to wipe down a table for our sitting (all other empty tables were also dirty).
