A great cup of coffee is easy to find in ATL. But great coffee and croissant? Luckily, we have the Octane/Little Tart combo. There's something magical about this 2013 Best of Atlanta Critics Pick. Read more

If you like flavourful, freshly ground coffee or espresso that is made to order, Octane is hands down, the best place to go to in Atlanta. Great coffee place and they know exactly what they're doing

The Little Tart Bakeshop half is a major boon to the coffee business, with treats such as a pitch-perfect almond cake that are simply destined to sit beside a cup of coffee in mutual admiration. Read more

This is my favorite coffee shop (and bakery!) in all of Atlanta. Octane's iced coffee is my go-to. At Little Tart, make sure to try an almond croissant. Or any variety of croissant, for that matter.

Great place to stay all day to work or study!Note: I came in at around noon but the Kouign Amann already got sold out. It must be good!

The original Octane is perhaps Atlanta's pre-eminent coffee shop that also happens to have a few excellent beers on tap, wines by the glass, and cocktails for good measure. Read more

Pour-over is the method of choice in this establishment, and the curated offerings of African & South American java fair are prepared consciously to deliver the actual nuances that good coffee offers
Kat 🐱November 9, 2018
I can't love this place more. Cozy with tons of natural lighting and super friendly staffs. The quiche is so flavorful and fluffy!

The almond croissants are impossibly flaky and creamy in the middle from a spread of bourbon-infused frangipane, and they also benefit from a spritz of bourbon syrup. Read more

A really good place to study! Long tables, great coffee and baked goods. The chocolate chip cookie was 80% dark chocolate. Amazing. And their soup of the day was delicious too.

My favorite place to get coffee on the entire planet. Great atmosphere. I suggest being patient though-its awesomeness means seats are usually occupied. Don't be afraid to share a table!!

Fruit Galette: Spring brings local berries and then peaches to this terrific bakery. The fruit’s natural sugars are intensified in the oven, and the flaky unsweetened crust knows how to play along. Read more

The care used in making your beverage shines through in the exquisite flavor. But don't stop there! You must partake in a pastry or baked good to go along with your beverage, you can thank me later.
Lauren AbramsFebruary 28, 2014
The Rosemary ham and your gruyere cheese croissant is out of this world!!! ask them to warm it up for a few seconds... One of the best things I've ever eaten
Jonathan WebberSeptember 10, 2014
A top class coffee shop. Bakery is awesome, look for items made with local jam and/or other local ingredients. I visit here every time I am in Atlanta.

The bartenders can be volatile but the real reason to come here is for the little tart shop connected to the coffee. Best baked goods. The chai latte is also legit.

Calling these crackly golden beauties "plain" is a travesty. The Plain Croissant is one of CL's 100 dishes to eat before you die, but right now I'm on track to average about a hundred a month. Read more

Perfect place to meet a friend or client. Something for everyone beer, wine, cocktails, coffee, tea, great bakery items, soup, salad, and a sandwich choice.

A beautiful space to sit for a spell, Octane's menu features quality coffee, tea and chocolates while the Little Tart Bakery has handmade treats made with local ingredients.
Ramona BasantaSeptember 11, 2016
#1. a score of 100 A. #2. The quiche, local veggie with pumkin seeds baked on top. Taste 6, texture 8, crust 6. (pumkin seed taste in the bottom of the crust). Average score 6.67 R. Basanta 9/11/16

This is the age of the coffeerestobakerbar. It's the kind of multitasking, morning to midnight place-to-be that can push espresso, scones, caramel corn, gratin, and cocktails all with equal aplomb. Read more
Aaron CruzJuly 24, 2013
The Octane Coffee in the Grant Park neighborhood is my fav. Great pasteries, a Happy Hour with wine, beer, food and more. You'll find a lot of laptops about.
Jelan KendrickNovember 14, 2015
I'm not a Coffee lover at all, but I do love croissants and Octans are second to none, not the mentions there on CL's list for eats-b4-Udie must try!
Creative Loafing AtlantaAugust 5, 2014
Octane's espresso, no matter the blend, is complex – unlike the over-roasted stuff at Starbucks – with an amazing number of flavors racing across the palate. Read more

The Ameri-cola is probably the coolest coffee drink you'll ever have. Think root beer float + really, really good coffee.
Cody MooreNovember 14, 2014
Good skill at latte art here. Spicy chai, tasty hot cocoa. The care in beverage prep shows!
danny daileySeptember 24, 2016
Fantastic coffee, fantastic, pastries. Some outdoor seating; good place to work or relax, although somewhat of a hard atmosphere
Creative Loafing AtlantaNovember 29, 2011
One of Cliff's top 10 restaurants. You won't find better espresso drinks in the city. The butter croissant is an obsession, and there are groovy small plates and sandwiches for light dining.
Amanda BillingsJune 3, 2018
Croissants, cold brew coffee, selection of beers and wines. Super hipster and a little crowded.

Some of the best espresso drinks and pastries in ATL. I recommend the kouign-amann paired with a cappuccino.
Victor VillaApril 8, 2015
Best coffee in Atlanta even though I don't get why you have to pay for a cappuccino $4.50+tax here and in Italy on average it is equivalent to $1.40

Great coffee. Great space. Great tarts. Full bar. Wifi is up. Zero outlets. Come with batteries fully charged.
Lisa SosaMarch 1, 2020
The egg and cheese danish and the almond croissant were both delicious!
Kat 🐱November 9, 2018
Regular latte is nice but the matcha latte with oat milk (with no sweeteners) is EVEN BETTER!
Dali CalicoolFebruary 22, 2016
Once the Bake Shop closes you cannot order Granola with Milk despite both ingredients being within view of the cash register. It was really off-putting; doubt I'll go back.

So much creative goodness in one place... And all organic and locally grown/sourced as well. Sublime.

Coffee, Tea and some of the best pastry in the city. Their ginger scones & blueberry buckle are legendary.

Delicious tea selection! If you're gluten free, don't show up and hope for an evening snack option. Whoops.

The most delicious coffee and breakfast items in town! But make sure you take 20 minutes of of your commute.

There are limited outlets so if you're here to do work try to find a seat along the window where there are power cords stretching along the floor under the bench seats.
Steve SchillingApril 21, 2013
The best ham and cheese croissant of my life. Strike that... The best croissant period.
Jennifer H.November 30, 2012
Bright & happy! Delicious coffee and super nice staff. Love their savory lunch items (not available on Mondays apparently).

That day you find a place in Atlanta that brew Ethiopian Coffee and it taste Ah May Zing! Reminds me how proud I am to be Habesha!

You cannot go wrong with anything baked here, however, the peanut butter cookies are ridiculicious!
Alisa TorresJuly 28, 2013
They make their own caramel... It's awesome in your Latte! The shortbread cookies are the best ever!

Croissants, Local Quiche, and Chocolate Tart are a must and my go-to carbs.
Tom NguyenNovember 3, 2013
The soy latte is the best I have had. Yes, I have been to other coffee shops than Starbucks.
