I like the idea of breakfast, and the foods of breakfast. I just don't like the *time<\/i>* of breakfast, so I never got to the Famous Toastery<\/i> on Sparkleberry<\/a>. This place was the follow-on operation to McAlister's Deli<\/a>, which moved kind of around the corner and down to front onto Two Notch<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The State<\/a> records the place as having opened on 20 January 2017, so they had a run of about two and a half years. If I can detect a trend in the Yelp reviews<\/a> it would be that the place may have been struggling a bit towards the end.<\/p>\n

The State also reported<\/a> that the downtown location which was supposed to open last year in the Main Street Atlanta Bread location<\/a> was cancelled.<\/p>\n

I wonder if the Spring Valley High School morning traffic was a factor here? The location doesn't seem that bad to me (though Carrabba's<\/a> would beg to differ), but I don't go by when school is starting or letting out.<\/p>\n
