This place is run by volunteers with a top rate chef. The proceeds go to a program that helps the homeless of Atlanta become self sufficient again. Because it is run by volunteers, at times, they are short staffed so be prepared to wait. The food is awesome. My party of 7 ordered the Indiana sammies, chicken and waffles, and the french toast. Everyone was happy with their order. Definitely worth the wait.
best meal of our trip! I had the chicken & waffles and whoever is doing that chicken knows what's up! it's the only brunch place i want to eat now.
This place was fantastic and such a good cause. I had the shrimp and grits (a little savory for my taste but still good) and my friend had the French toast (I should have gotten that) and we were supposed to share the chicken and waffles but he's a but of a pig... Guess I should've been thankful he let me get one wing and 1/4 of a waffle. And the wait was VERY minimal considering we went for brunch on a Sunday. I'll be back whenever I'm in Atlanta.
Meaningful brunch in Cafe 458! All profits are used for helping homeless and people trying to find their jobs. All servers were volunteers and they were really kind. Besides, the meal itself was really nice. I could taste local southern yummy plates. I recommend french toast and frittata
Highly highly recommended!!! This was my very first time in Atlanta and I had heard a lot about this place through some local suggestions but I was more impressed and eager to go once I knew that there was a cause behind it.....What an AMAZING experience! Had breakfast at Cafe 458 this morning right before taking off for my six hour drive back to Florida ...lucky me i was able to experience this place because they are ONLY open on Sunday! All of their staff are VOLUNTEERS!!! 100% of the proceeds go to programs that help homeless and financially vulnerable men & women find jobs and become sufficient! And the food was amazing!! It's so nice to know there are still wonderful people in the world who are motivated by the opportunity of being able to help others prosper!
My guest and I really enjoyed this place. I checked out reviews prior to going and I would give high fives to every positive reviewer if I could. The food was delicious. The servers are volunteers and were so sweet. It felt good ordering and knowing the proceeds are going to a worthy cause.
Just happened in after checking out a couple other places that had the usual brunch lines. So happy we did! Food was wonderful, had the chicken and waffles, they were perfect. Staff was super friendly and came by to explain how the place works. Definitely give this place a shot, do a little good and get a damn fine meal out of it.
What a wonderful place! The French toast was extremely good 10/10 would recommend. The staff is super friendly and work hard not only to provide an amazing breakfast but also help individuals get back on their feet ♥️
This place was great. I had the chicken and waffle. The chicken breast was huge and perfectly seasoned. My SO got the shrimp and grits, also awesome. Daughter had the French toast and it was delicious! I was so happy to eat a great meal and contribute to a wonderful cause. Be prepared- the dining area is small and not updated but is very clean and cozy. The food is so good though you won't mind.
The reviews are accurate! Was randomly looking for a good brunch spot yesterday, and based on the reviews I decided on Cafe 458. I ordered a waffle and the fish and grits. Omg my food was delicious! My sister also loved her food. The workers are all volunteers and they were super friendly and attentive. I love that funds go towards a good cause and assist with providing individuals with employment. Don't let the interior of the place keep you away either. I will definitely be back again!
What a great concept. This place is staffed by volunteers and all proceeds including tips go to the homeless. The shrimp and grits were delicious. I recommend reservations because the seating area is small and it can fill up fast. They are only open on Sundays for brunch.
