“It was lonely for a day or so until one morning some man,
more recently arrived than I, stopped me on the road.
”How do you get to West Egg village?” he asked helplessly.
I told him. And as I walked on I was lonely no longer.
I was a guide, a pathfinder, an original settler.
He had casually conferred on me the freedom of the neighborhood.”
— F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

NEWS

OPEN FOR TAKEOUT AND DELIVERY ONLY, 9AM TO 3PM, WED-SUN

  1. PICKUP ORDERS. Order online or call or order at the counter (one guest at a time, wearing a mask; please respect our social distancing measures for your safety and ours). We recommend ordering online for the quickest, most contact-less process! Feel free to email with questions or for advance orders (not same day).

  2. DELIVERY ORDERS. Order through DoorDash!

  3. CURBSIDE PICKUP available. Call when you’re here! In order to avoid creating a backup at the intersection of Brady Ave and Howell Mill, please pull down the lane, just passed our patio and the new Upper Westside Improvement District Brady Pocket Park, to our curbside pickup sign. For your safety and ours, please don't stop on Howell Mill Rd.

“Atlanta’s chock full of places where biscuits that are approximately 95% butter (and 5% love, if the menus are to be believed) are the stars, and true to form this modern-ish throwback experience brings the thunder courtesy of a build-your-own biscuit menu that keeps things simple, cheap, and delightful. Eggs, too, are perfect, packed with anything from pecan-smoked bacon, to ham, sausage, roast turkey, and a half dozen cheeses. But it’s the spins on classics that sets West Egg truly apart, including a shrimp & grits loaded up with andouille sausage, fancy butter, and roasted okra; fried chicken hash kicked in the tastebuds with Swiss chard and portobello in the mix; and a Georgia benedict that puts turkey sausage (and turkey sausage gravy) onto split biscuits with eggs. It’s southern comfort that takes things slightly out of the comfort zone. And if that all sounds too fancy, well, you can still grab a ham biscuit for like $3. If you must feel literary, go ahead and call it the “green light special.””

West Egg Café sits in the heart of Atlanta's burgeoning Westside, nestled conveniently among Midtown, Georgia Tech, Atlantic Station, Buckhead, and Downtown, at the south end of the Westside Provisions District, below the White Provision Residences.

Open since 2004, West Egg serves up Southern comfort in a modern, energetic environment. We are a full service restaurant serving best-in-Atlanta breakfast all day, lunch, and weekend brunch, with a full bar. We also offer a separate coffee shop area with a comfortable lounge, free wi-fi, a walk-up bakery counter, and full coffee menu serving locally-roasted Batdorf & Bronson coffee.

Here, along the railroad artery and former stockyards that fueled Atlanta's industrial growth in the beginning of the 20th century, we aim to fuel the area's many creative businesses and residents as they launch Atlanta into the 21st century.

FAQS

DO YOU TAKE RESERVATIONS OR CALL AHEAD SEATING? CAN I CALL YOU TO FIND OUT HOW LONG THE BRUNCH WAIT IS? We're sorry, but we do not take reservations or call aheads, Unfortunately, we really can't tell you how long the brunch wait will be by the time you get here and then you’ll just be mad at us if the wait has changed by the time you get here. Just remember you can entertain yourself during your wait with coffee, cocktails, camaraderie . . . and our cool vintage photo booth.
