WOW, what an experience.
My local Elite friends - I can't believe that you all didn't put me onto Omni sooner, lol. When looking for a new Black-owned biz to support, I randomly selected Omni Coffee & Eggs after looking at the reviews and seeing all of the love coming from my fellow members of the ATL Yelp Elite Squad! I trust their opinions so much, it seemed like an easy choice.
As I approach my 2nd year in Atlanta, I'm always blown away by the amazing local businesses that we have the privilege to enjoy and support. And Omni Coffee & Eggs is no different. Located in the Castleberry Hill neighborhood, I can't believe that I hadn't stopped in previously as I am no stranger to the area. Before we could even walk in, we set our eyes on the cutest little English-style cars with their logo on it - so cute! My intern, Jamesa, told me that they had a theme going but until we got to the door, I didn't truly understand lol. As soon as we opened the door, I was blown away. Not only by the beautiful interior, but by the two costumed greeters who welcomed us in, speaking in traditional English as if it was noon on a Tuesday lol. I just know that my jaw was on the floor! There was really so much greatness to take in. The rich red velvet seating, the decor, it was just really something else - if you haven't been there to see it, go!
The menu is awesome as well. Serving breakfast until 1 and lunch after that shift, there's a wide range of breakfast options, sandwiches, soups and pastries to enjoy along with an incredible beverage menu. When we entered we were told that they had the 'champagne of coffees' and baby, I believed it! I ended up going with their apple spiced latte and Verde Chicken sandwich, while Jamesa went for their cinnamon bun and carrot cake latte. We accidentally received someone else's similar order at first, but received ours only minutes later. The team was behind the counter working so hard, I would have accepted any order they placed in front of us lol. Y'all. That coffee was SO good. So flavorful, not too sweet, perfect temp, fabulous. And that sandwich? WOW. I was told that the sandwich I ordered differed a bit from the one I received, but I seriously didn't even hear the differences that they pointed out lol. All I know is that it was FIRE. Sooo flavorful, the bacon was crisp and a bit sweet, just fabulous. I should have eaten Jamesa's cinnamon bun when she wasn't looking. :(
Service was excellent and the team was so attentive, as well as patient because I was there for hours taking up space.
A few things to note: Street parking only over here but if you're familiar with supporting businesses in the area, that shouldn't be a surprise. There is only one bathroom but it's spacious, nicely decorated and super clean.
We were lucky enough to snag a few minutes with the GM, Jason, as he headed out the door and all of his recommendations sounded SO good. Now I have to go back and try them all I guess. :)
