Good brunch for a good cause

atlanta brunch food

A friend and I had brunch at Cafe 458 this morning.

Cafe 458 is part of Samaritan House. During the week, the cafe serves meals to Atlanta's homeless, but on Saturdays and Sundays Cafe 458 serves brunch to the public, with the proceeds going toward the Samaritan House programs. The kitchen and wait staff are all volunteers (A few friends were volunteering today, so we went to see what it was all about).

Aside from being served by our friends, it felt like any good breakfast place. The food was excellent (I had the biscuits and gravy, pictured), and though it wasn't uncomfortably crowded there was a steady flow of people in and out.

I would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a good weekend brunch.
