"With its exposed brick walls and basket-lined shelves overflowing with freshly baked breads, this Morningside bakery (now with a second location at Phipps Plaza) has been an Atlanta staple for over 30 years, and it’s easy to see why. You’re more likely than not to catch a glimpse of chef Alon himself kneading dough or testing out a new recipe in the venue’s open kitchen, while dedicated staff restock shelves and straighten displays of pastry, grab-and-go dishes, and imported European groceries. Among the Parisian-inspired highlights are immaculate patisserie, French cheeses, and even those viral round croissants stuffed with a rotating selection of flavored creams." - Sarah Bisacca
"With locations in Morningside and Phipps, Alon’s has been serving some of Atlanta’s finest pastries for more than 30 years. The robust croissant and cookie selection — think chocolate praline, pistachio, and twice-baked croissants and sables, shortbread, and krakovsky cookies — is particularly noteworthy. They’ve also got larger options, like chocolate and cinnamon babka loaves, croquembouche, and a macaron tower." - Lia Picard
"Known for glitzy desserts, their croissants are breakfast staples in Atlanta. Options include twice-baked almond croissants with a crunchy exterior, spiral cream croissants, and savory gruyere-sesame twists." - Lia Picard
"Alon’s silver dollar-sized cookies look unassuming and harmless, but we’ve nearly lost a limb in an office fight for the last oatmeal raisin (which says something since the often-despised cookie is like the Voldemort of baked treats). So, if you’re looking for a dessert to bring to an office potluck or house party, an assorted box of Alon’s chocolate pecan, oatmeal raisin, and double chocolate chunk is always well received. Alon’s is also a great place to get harder-to-find specialities like Italian wedding cookies and krakovski cookies, which are available at both their Phipps and Morningside locations." - nina reeder, juli horsford
"Alon’s has been Atlanta’s dinner party savior since 1992. Now with locations in Morningside and Phipps, the bakery and market continues to be a first consideration for freshly baked breads, desserts, and small- to large-scale catering. And it’s a great one-stop shop to grab a made-to-order sandwich for lunch (we’re big fans of their BBQ salmon focaccia sandwich) while picking up dinner from the prepared foods counter. We usually have to eat our lunch first because their enticing display cases of colorful salads, sides, and meats with beautiful grill marks often tempts us into ordering more than what we need when we’re hungry." - Nina Reeder
