Coffee, Pastries and At-home Feels at Beans and Butter Coffeehouse in Atlanta

Coffee and Pastries in Lawrenceville, Georgia

Tucked into the corner of a nondescript strip mall in Lawrenceville, Georgia is a fantastic coffeehouse called Beans and Butter. This place is aptly named since their freshly roasted coffee "beans" pair fantastically with their freshly baked pastries (the "butter").

VIBE

3. Every sweet and savory bakery item is freshly-made and so delicious!

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Signature Coffee: Cinnamon Cardamom Latte - Although all of their coffees are fantastic, you must try this favorite.

• Gluten Free: Sweet Potato and Zucchini Muffins - Even if you aren't gluten free, both of these muffins feel like mom's, and you won't miss the gluten.

• Quiches: Spinach - I dare say any of their quiche offerings are delicious, but we are spinach fans. And their slices are huge (think a well-developed cheesecake size)!
