The Hungry Peach

I had lunch here today, and got the brisket and swiss sandwich — to DIE for. Was sooo good. This place is inside the ADAC complex in the back, and on the lower level – had a little difficulty at first finding it, but so glad I did — will be back for sure.

I came in here today based on the wonderful reviews and was not disappointed!
As other reviewers stated, this place is a bit difficult to find. It’s on the second floor of a huge interior design building. However, the receptionist at the front desk pointed me in the right direction. I did feel a bit underdressed to even be walking around in the building, as many individuals were dressed in business casual. However, it did not matter that much once I got my food!
The staff at the café were very friendly. I placed a to-​go order, only took about 5 minutes. The place was filled with diners.
The food is INCREDIBLE. Reading through the reviews, I decided that I must try the chicken salad plate and the pimiento cheese. The chicken salad was amazing. I LOVE chicken salad and frequently order it when eating out. I believe this was the BEST I have ever had. The chicken salad plate consists of fresh greens, a heap of chicken salad, candied pecans, seasonal fruit (I had apples, grapes, blackberries, and strawberries in mine), and a delicious, creamy balsamic dressing. It also comes with thinly sliced bagel chips. The salad was so good that I had one of those moments where I wished I had a bottomless gut so I could devour it all, and then ask for seconds…
The pimiento cheese was pretty darn good also. Came with red pepper jelly and wedges of bread toasted to perfection.
For the chicken salad plate and half portion of pimiento cheese, I only paid $ 15. Pretty solid deal for food this good!

This is the most out of the way café I’ve ever been to. It’s in the back of a interior decoration mall. My coworkers and I stumbled in there because it was walking distance from our office. The food is phenomenal, the wait staff is attentive and did I mention the food was phenomenal? The pimiento cheese is a must try, as is their pesto chicken sandwich.
I will be back. With more friends. Often.

We were driving through Atlanta, going from Florida to Tennessee, when we decided to stop for lunch. I searched Unilocal and found this great place. It’s a little hidden. It’s in the back of the big white building. When you enter through the front doors, the receptionist is very helpful. Dress a little nice because it is in the nice part of town. Our waiter was very kind and informative. The menu is seasonal, so what you see online may not be what is current. I could have ordered a many number of items on the menu and be happy with my choice. My fiancé had the pesto chicken panini. It must have been great because he finished it without even offering me a bite. No worries though because I had the salmon BLT. OMG it was amazing. I overrate because it was so good. The sides were great as well. We had pesto pasta salad and the potato salad. This place is a southern dream.

We are so blessed to have an office at ADAC and be able to walk here darn near everyday. I have never tasted anything that is not absolutely full of flavor, delicious, and probably healthy. We have also catered parties from here and have been more than pleased. Rick, the current chef, knows what it’s all about. Highly, highly recommend. Yum.

The peach cobbler cupcake alone is worth the trip. :)

I own a business at ADAC and frequent «The Peach» as we all call it. We originally went there since it was convenient for us, but, the food and the service kept bringing us back!
As others have stated, you really can’t go wrong with anything you get there. The Roast Beef, Southern BLT (grilled w/​Pimento Cheese), Chicken Salad Plate and Meatloaf are at the top of my list as are ANY of their soups and ANY of their deserts.
Through the years the service has varied, but it has mostly been top notch and ALWAYS friendly. I admit that there was a short period of time where the service could be slow because they were short-​handed while undergoing some changes, but that has not nor is not the norm.
The original owners and staff are all gone, but, somehow they keep getting quality replacements. Too many wonderful servers to mention individually, plus, I am sure I would inadvertently miss one or two, so, I will just say that they are ALL great!
I will single out the current Chef, Rick… he has done a fantastic job of not only keeping the dishes that Chef Suzanne & Conor made famous, but he has added his own recipes and flare.
BTW, most people don’t know about it, but, they serve BREAKFAST too! It is a limited menu and they only serve breakfast from 9:30 to 11. Great omelets!
They do a lot of catering and pre-​prepared holiday meals. A real hidden gem!
P. S. After reading this before posting I almost erased it as I am am a little selfish and not sure that I want this «secret» to get out, however, thinking about how great everyone there is I have to share. They deserve it!

Ordered box lunches for large meeting. Order was delivered perfect and with great reviews from attendees. Easy to do mix of sandwich or salad options to meet all attendees needs.
Hungry Peach easily accommodated specialty orders labeled with names in the mix with large «random selections» request.
Excellent quality and much better option than traditional «box lunch». Highly recommend for your next large group lunch.

I have dietary restrictions. The chef is amazing! He understands whatever your needs are. Their food is fresh, well seasoned and priced well. I love coming here! It’s tucked away inside ADAC. Definitely work going!

Really great for office lunches or catering…
Haven’t ever had a complaint and everyone always looks forward to lunch.
The staff is lovely and completely on top of everything.

Wildly outstanding! Fun to find as well. Common dishes here are anything but common. The kitchen infuses lovely taste in everything my wife and I ordered.

The chicken salad here is seriously on point. Get the plate (not the sandwich unless you just really want some bread.) It comes on a big plate with lettuce underneath and a bunch of fruit and the candied pecans (I think) are great. They also give you bagel chips to eat it with. Yum.
I’ve also had the chicken pesto panini which is good. The pesto aioli is homemade and although I don’t love mayo it’s really good on it. Tabouleh also good.
We got dessert once because they brought the wrong order for me initially, but they were quick to replace it and it was nice of them to give me the dessert. Peach cobbler cupcake was good but the red velvet cookie was pretty dry. Servers are very professional here, almost to a fault. They’re a little too formal for me, but I guess that’s fine.
I think it’s easiest to get here if you park in the back (drive along the left side of building back to where people are loading things) and go up the outside stairs to the second floor. It’s on the left side.

So good and affordable! Chicken salad sandwich is amazing and so is the honey-​lemon dressing. Will definitely be a usual lunch time spot.

Had the special sliders with mustard potato salad. The sliders had the pimento cheese that all the reviews have commented and homemade ketchup and pickles. All was very very good. The water was perfectly attentive and it was he who recommended the special. The restaurant is a bit hidden but the design center reception gave me excellent cheery directions. It was nice to walk past the design rooms and day dream about the day that I nest with beautiful surroundings.
The restaurant itself is nice and quiet. Everyone looked like they were having a lovely relaxing Friday.

Chicken pesto panini– comes with a side (or soup or chips). The sandwich is typical: chicken slices, pesto, sundried tomatoes.
Tomato gazpacho– O.M.G!!! Explosion of flavors on my palate. So refreshing and cool with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and other deliciousness. That bowl was licked dry.
Pimento cheese with crackers– apparently you get more cheese if you don’t get the snack box with jelly and toast. This was the best pimento cheese I remember ever eating! It had a tease of spicy, too.
It was an adventure to find this place. I just looked for ADAC (Atlanta Decorative Arts Center) and followed signs to the café on the second floor.
The ambience is quaint in this artsy facility. It has an airy feel with many little tables, with some seating up to four. The ordering station is in the back.
The cashier was very friendly and helpful. She said everything on the menu is popular especially the chicken salad.

The food is divine! It is hard to find and a cardio workout to get to but when you do reach this place it is so worth it! Allow yourself extra time to maneuver the building. Portions are large so if you’re not that hungry you may want to share with a friend. I ordered the special of the day: Apricot Chicken Salad and an Arnold Palmer. Delicious!

This place isn’t much to look at, and it’s pretty damn hard to find. As others have said– it’s actually IN the Atlanta Decorative Arts Center, which aside from the giant artsy pole things out front, is pretty non-​descript in and of itself. Once you’re in the ADAC, you’ve still got about a 5 – 10 minute walk to the very, very, very back of the building, where the place is tucked away in a perfectly-​fine but windowless and sparsely decorated space.
The food, however, is OUTSTANDING. I got the curry chicken salad today and it was so phenomenal I almost ordered a second helping to take home. The sweet tea was outstanding and the service was great. If they had an easier-​to-​access location, the line would be out the door every day (and I’m sure they could get away with charging significantly more). Service was fantastic too. I’ll be pretty surprised if I make it through the end of the week without going back.

Wowwie wow wow! Okay, I’ll keep this short and sweet:
— It’s in the Atlanta Decorative Arts Center which makes it a little tricky to find, but it’s so worth it.
— I fed three people for under $ 30.
— They have a different menu every day and they post it on their website so you actually know what you’re getting into.
— SUPER FRIENDLY. I got a take out order from them and on my way realized I was going to get there sooner than I thought, so I called back and asked them if they wouldn’t mind putting in my order then and they were very accommodating.
— Ridiculously delicious. I got a seared Ahi Tuna salad that had a peanut cilantro dressing and ordered two grilled cheese sandwiches with chicken avocado soup for my friends and we were all satisfied with the portion and the flavor.
I will definitely be going back, even if only to get takeout for a picnic.
Go right meow!

I went for lunch. We had a tough time finding it and did not realize that it is INSIDE the ADAC. Once you see the big white building with funky beams out front you’re there. Inside is a warehouse style mall for home furnishings. A quaint little space for delicious food was quite the surprise.
We started with pimento cheese. Excellent stuff! I had the chicken pesto sandwich with avocado and tomato salad. My friend had the chicken salad salad. Both were excellent. Lots of toppings on the salad including fruit and nuts.
A hidden gem with great atmosphere. I highly recommend it.

I eat a lot of pimento cheese. I’ll blame it on my job, but seriously, I’ve tasted it all. After all, in so many Southern lunches, it’s used like a condiment, akin to salt and pepper. With my extensive pimento cheese sampling experience, I can conclusively say that the Hungry Peach has the best. Y’all, they MAKE THEIR OWN MAYONNAISE for the pimento cheese. That’s dedication.
Though the pimento cheese certainly can stand alone, I highly recommend that you instead enjoy it as part of their «Southern BLT,» where it is spread on their southern style white bread and topped with thick cut bacon, lettuce, and tomato. I heard rave reviews on all the sandwiches sampled, but I can’t imagine anything tasting better than that Southern BLT. The beautiful side salads (pasta and green) were also very tasty, and the truffle brownies were delicious, though looking over their website, I’m a little bummed we didn’t also try the peach cobbler cupcakes!
I can’t believe I didn’t know about this spot, but I’m grateful my coworkers discovered the Hungry Peach and picked them to cater our office lunch. While I didn’t handle the coordination of this meal, my coworker who did said they were incredibly easy to work with and excited to help put together the right order. I look forward to trying them out at the café sometime soon, and I’ll certainly keep them in mind should I need another catered lunch.
