Where to Find the Best Chicken and Waffles in Marietta

If you’re from the Atlanta area, you know Sunday brunch in the South can be a pretty decadent affair. From elaborate cocktails, sparkling mimosas, and bottomless Bloody Mary bars to opulent dishes of eggs benedict and crème brûlée french toast, there are a lot of choices to be made when you sit down at a white tablecloth-draped table for a mid-morning feast. 

Over the years, classics have been updated and lighter fares like salads and omelettes have become popular choices, but if you’re a true brunch lover, nothing is more satisfying than a sweet and savory meal that checks all the right flavor boxes and sends you straight home for an afternoon nap. Sleeping burns calories, right? 

Thankfully, to fill this need for something that is sweet, salty and satisfying with every bite, a quintessentially Southern dish has emerged. This confection is a comfort food at its very core while still maintaining its rightful place on the brunch menu. 

Enter the chicken and waffles.
