7 Best bakery in Atlanta, Georgia (GA) 2024

I typically love this Publix but today was a big disappointment. An item was marked for $3.99. Upon checking out, I noticed it rang up for $5.19. The associate said that whoever put it out must have put it in the wrong place. She did not offer any other solution other than that. That’s not the Publix customer service I am used to and I’m extremely disappointed. It’s not the customers job to make sure employees are putting out product in the correct places. I sincerely hope to have a better experience if I ever come back to this location. ~Nicole

Customer service representative was very unprofessional, tried to purchase a small container of soup she stated that you need to get on the other side, this is for lottery, another customer came to the counter in which just totally disrespected me and started helping him, will not return to your store ever, bad customer service. ~James

As soon as you walk in you are greeted by the smell of old or rotting meat being pushed by the air conditioning from the back to the front of the store. Initially, I assumed it was shrimp, but quickly realized that the smell, regardless of its source, is just unacceptable. The worse part is everyone is ignoring it probably because they are older folk or have transportation issues that prevent them from going to a nicer place. Produce section is filled with flies and old or moldy fruits and veggies. Not enough lanes open. Seems like the store always has some sort of security or police presence because of theft or other issues. Like most grocery stores in impoverished areas with a majority Black customer base the store is lacking compared to its White counter part over 10 miles away in Sandy Springs. This is a documentary waiting to happen. ~Christen

Really enjoyed the food here. And the service was good and fast. My only complaint was the cinnamon bun we ordered was very hard and not good at all. I was expecting more, this being an actual bakery. But it def wasn't bad enough to lose a star, so they still get 5 from me. The fried chicken Benedict was great and the poached eggs were perfect! The chicken fried steak was great as well! I will definitely be back to give this cinnamon buns another go! ~Michael

Went through the drive through. Service was fast and friendly. But the mini pancakes smelt like motor oil and had black residue all over them. Not sure if that's dried up gear oil or dried up food residue but I'll take the hit and pass on it.. ~Jr

Our experience was so bad it was almost comical…almost. We arrived a little before 11 on a Sunday hoping to get a dozen bagels, sandwiches and cream cheese. I understand that we must have been late to the game because they were sold out of wheat, plain, Asiago… almost all of the bagels. They did have blueberry, 2 chocolate chip, a hash brown bagel (when I asked what it was the girl behind the counter said- I don’t know, I just started here), pumpernickel and I think cranberry. We decided that we would just go for 6 bagels and sandwiches and ordered the two chocolate chip and four blueberry as the 6 and for sandwiches we order pumpernickel and hash brown bagels both with extra bacon(crisp), egg and cheese. When my husband picked up the bag of six bagels, he asked why it was hot. We did not order them toasted. The said they they must just be freshly out of the oven. When we looked at them- they were all sliced and toasted. We showed them to the employee and they said- I can give you new bagels. They only had the blueberry so we swapped them for just blueberry and they threw in a container of cream cheese as an apology. We did not check our sandwiches until we were in the car but the pumpernickel was actually blueberry and the bacon was barely heated let alone crisp. We decided we would just eat the blueberry bagel with the cream cheese but when we opened it, it was moldy. We were too far from the shop to return but it was basically a $42 headache that left us hungry, frustrated and having to stop somewhere else for food. ~Liz

We love Baker Dude! So far we’ve used them for three birthday cakes (two were custom), birthday cupcakes (OneLove cupcakes), and lots of drop in treats (the spinach croissants are amazing). Everything from them had always had amazing detail to decoration, but even more, it’s tasted great! I highly recommend them! ~Martha
