Carolina Cafe & Catering Co

Chicken, goat cheese, cranberry salad - added black olives (removed nuts), side of pasta salad and the homemade Cilantro Lime Dressing is SO gooood! (Their Ranch is good, also.)

Everybody is so friendly here! The food is phenomenal and so tasty you have to try it if you’re in COLA!!

My go to place to get a quick breakfast that has fresh bagels. You will not find a better bagel in town.

Really good food. The office I work at is pretty close to Carolina Cafe and they offer free delivery for places close by. My coworkers and I order from here at least once a week. When we order, we are usually told it'll take 45 minutes, but it usually only takes 20 minutes max which is really great! Overall great experience

Been going there even since I was a freshman in college. Affordable bagels that taste great too. Staff is very friendly and quick service too.

I don’t know why I continue to go here. The customer service is the epitome of mediocre and, while the food is solid, takes forever. Today, I ordered a muffin with my bagel and the cashier asked if I wanted it then or with the rest of my food and I told him I’d wait for all of my food. I got home before realizing it wasn’t in the bag. You’d think they would put on the ticket that I’d not received it yet. Anyway, it all seems very unorganized and the staff seems cold.

Bagels as always good, but no attention to detail when ordering :
Bacon added to bagel…forgotten
Butter on side….spread on the bagel

The fruit the restaurant said "they cut fresh every day" was growing mold. Absolutely disgusting.

I wish I took a picture of my bagel. It was just a plain bagel, toasted, with extra cream cheese. That’s it. Simple, easy. However…I’m a Jersey Girl who worked in NY City for 18 years. I live in Atlanta. The south tends to serve round bread and call them bagels. Since I was traveling I thought I’d search great bagels. Carolina Cafe came up first and with loads of amazing pictures I thought I’d walk over. It was well worth it and what an amazing surprise!!! Outstanding bagels!! They looked and tasted just like their fab NY City counterparts. I couldn’t believe it!! I sat outside and savored my bagel. Loved the location too. Try this place. It won’t let you down.

I will say that it is a nice, convenient cafe. The staff are always nice and the dining area is well kept. The only miss is that if I decide to have an order delivered it is almost never right when it gets to me. Bagels are pretty much never toasted and actual breakfast sandwiches are never warm most times. I would love to give them more stars but I believe a little more attention to detail would make things much better.
