★★★★★ 5.0 Surelysmitty · Mar 2026

The perfect spot to tuck away and get some comfort food. We love their sandwiches, sides, and sweet tea. The pimento BLT is our favorite. The restaurant itself is an experience. Small town vibes. Great service. We love it here.

We stopped in for breakfast and the owner (we assume) was great. He was attentive and helpful as they were busy and the waitresses had a lot on their plate. I ordered the sausage egg and cheese biscuit (8/10) , a white chocolate raspberry iced coffee (10/10) and my husband got the pimento BLT with double tomato basil soup (9/10). Staff were all friendly, the cafe is cozy and we would recommend to anyone in the area. Seating is self seat and you might have to wait, we got lucky and only had to wait a couple minutes.

My husband & I went to Dahlonega specifically to see the lighting of the Square. While there we stopped at Picnic Cafe & Dessertery. My husband ordered the turkey sandwich & White bean chili. I ordered the Brunswick stew and chicken salad on GF bread. All of the food was delicious. The staff were very friendly. The restaurant has a quaint feel with so much charm. Stop by the Picnic Cafe then check out the square.

The food was good, it wasn't amazing. My iced coffee was kind of flavorless and my hard fried egg tasted and looked more like a scrambled egg. The deviled eggs were more on the savory side, I like mine with relish, but it was flavorful and seasoned well. The fruit was a slice of watermelon, 3 apple slices and 2 pieces of oranges for nearly $6, that was highly disappointing. My daughter said her sausage gravy biscuits were good, they looked good and her strawberry smoothie. The cookies were good. The inside was very small with a handful of big tables. It was pretty loud and busy. The service was fantastic, I'd go back just for the service.

This place is so CUTE and DELICIOUS! A Southern Egg Salad on a croissant, a half sandwich of Pimento Cheese BLT on sourdough and a Boars Head Roasted Turkey Sandwich on cracked wheat bread was ordered. The egg salad had Gala apples and it works. The subtle sweetness and crunch was something I never knew I needed in egg salad. The Pimento Cheese in the BLT is a homemade recipe. We have had pimento cheese before and wasn’t the biggest fan, but this stuff was absolutely amazing. It was creamy, rich and a total flavor bomb. We will be thinking about this sandwich for a very long time. The Turkey Sandwich was huge and the bread was so soft and fresh. A cup of the white bean chili and tomato basil bisque was ordered as well. The white bean chili was flavored really well and had a nice litt
