Parkgrounds Café | Specialty Coffee Atlanta

I have waited a year to leave this review. I have been here 1 time. The food was good. The scenery fantastic. The problem I have is my wife took my 3 year old to the restaurant and there was a gun sitting on the sink. She brings it to the counter. I check it’s loaded. The cook says that’s mine. No apologies. If you own and carry a pistol, do proper gun safety. 2 stars

We were immediately met with a rude attitude as soon as we ordered. We were told our food will take 25 minutes, but it took 50 minutes and the staff never checked in with us. The two times we asked for an update on our food, they responded with a cold response and “there’s a couple tickets ahead.” Meanwhile, we watched everyone before us eat and leave and tables of people arrive and leave before we even saw our food. The staff were almost annoyed for us inquiring. Mind you our meals were made of hashbrown, egg and cheese. If you’re not a regular, don’t come here.

Love parkgrounds and go there atleast once or twice a week. The outdoor area is golden and in a quiet neighborhood and you can enjoy nature and escape the Atlanta heat. The staff is friendly and the coffee is great too!

I love this place. I visit other local coffeeshops a lot but this one is my most frequent and favorite. There isn't a more relaxing coffee shop with a better vibe than this one. There's a good amount of seating inside, but the very large patio is the best part. There is a ton of seating and several tables surrounding a beautiful oak tree. Their commitment to community support and activism is also admirable. Their coffee is pretty good and I love to try their speciality drinks. This one is the blueberry matcha. EDIT: I actually do think their service is pretty good usually but what is up with the replies to negative reviews? Even ones that are rational and constructive are getting either backhanded or passive aggressive responses. Some of them are just plain aggressive. Businesses should be able to take a feedback. It’s not a good look. After I noticed a few I read more on the lowest starred reviews. They make me feel uncomfortable and I don’t know if I’ll be coming back. Take a peak and you decide if this is where you want to spend your money.

I love this place!!! Yummy breakfast sandwiches and coffee with a warm community feel. I got the sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. There are events and posters with games to play. Staff was very rude but maybe they had a bad day. Pretty loud here, if you want to work or call I'd time it properly. I would return to check out the outdoor space. edit: just read through some of the reviews, seems like the rudeness is not a one-day event haha. being friendly is free!
