"There’s always a lengthy wait at Folk Art, unless you ride at dawn and get here promptly at 7am. The crowds aren’t here for sceney photo ops (since the Southern diner looks like it's been decorated with Goodwill finds). It’s packed because Folk Art consistently serves one of the best brunches in Atlanta. Everything you'll eat here is fantastic—soft sweet potato donuts dusted in powdered sugar, perfectly crispy fried chicken on a sweet potato pancake, and their infamous sticky bun waffle covered with pecans, marshmallow cream, maple bourbon syrup, and powdered sugar." - jacinta howard
"Eight-year-olds aren’t going to understand a 45-minute wait for eggs and pancakes, no matter how fluffy they are. Our advice for avoiding sidewalk squabbles is beating hungry Inman Park residents to Folk Art’s host stand. Come by 9:30am, and you should easily score a booth in a dining room covered in stickers, knickknacks, and a generally upbeat vibe. Known for taking creative liberties in the kitchen (did someone say grit fritters?), the restaurant tempts the hungry with chocolate s’mores waffles while those craving lunch can go with the slightly tamer hot dog or fried shrimp.

"The diner-like Folk Art is a bright and cheery spot for breakfast, lunch, and dinner in Inman Park filled with vintage decor and a menu of comforting, homey fare. Try any of the restaurant’s popular pancakes, waffles, and omelets for breakfast. For lunch, order burgers or the go-big-or-go-home “bad to the bone” sandwich with roasted pork shoulder topped with collard green coleslaw and date chili bourbon barbecue sauce. Don’t miss out on the grilled cheese and tomato soup combo here. A kids menu includes everything from fried shrimp to French toast to Greek yogurt and granola. There’s also a location in Decatur." - Beth McKibben, Lia Picard
"After an energetic morning on the BeltLine, you’ve probably mustered up an appetite for something more than smoothies and toast. Take your hunger to Folk Art. With vintage signs all over the brick interior and a massive menu, it’s a great choice for a casual brunch in Inman Park. Just note everyone else will be on the same page as you, so expect a lengthy wait on the weekend. There are a few essential picks, like their sticky bun pancakes or fried chicken benedict, but we would and do gladly eat everything on the menu." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams
