Georgia Fruit Cake

I stopped in here during a visit from Denver and it was perfect! I had a delicious mocha latte and got my mom a coffee that she loved. The service was great too.

Coffee and donuts every morning. I come here and get a“pinecone «every morning on the way to work. And donuts every Saturday morning for my crew. They have a variety of morning goodies which are all tasty.

They no longer make nutless fruitcakes so their rating dropped from four stars to one.

Great coffee, fresh pastries, friendly service! A really nice place for a break any time!

I called the bakery on January 8, 2013, to ask if they still have fruitcakes. A man with a southern accent answered that they did, and asked if I wanted to place an order. I placed an order at that time.
After about a week, I called the company to ask when I can expect delivery, and by what carrier. The phone was answered by a fast-​speaking woman with a thick foreign accent. I couldn’t understand much of what she said and she didn’t seem inclined to answer a direct question. I called several times after that, hoping that original man would answer, but he didn’t. On one call, I asked the woman I had spoken to in a previous phone call if he was there, and it took repeated questioning before she finally said, no.
Today I called again and spoke to the same woman. I asked that the man call me when he’s able to. That took some doing but she finally took my name and number.
The man who I had placed the order with called later. He had the same voice and southern accent, so I was sure it was him. He wasn’t so friendly now, and after asking my name just once, he said he couldn’t hear and handed me off to a woman I hadn’t spoken to before. I had to state my name once again and go around and around with her. It was terribly frustrating. I had already called so many times and had spent so much time on this, and was still getting nowhere. As she tap-​danced around, I asked if she was aware that I was calling long-​distance, hoping she would just tell me the answer to my two simple questions, when is the order expected to arrive, and who is the carrier.
Well, there was no way she was going to shorten the call now. She told me that «we all have jobs to do,» (don’t know what that was about), and that she is sick today but came to work anyway. She was carrying on. I told her to cancel my order, and hung up. The fruitcakes were to be a gift, but there would be no pleasure in giving them now.
A short while afterwards, the man I had given the order to on January 8^th, left a voicemail, to say that they don’t have an order from me. He suggested that I call a fruitcake company in Texas, as he didn’t believe that I had ever ordered from him. «If you had hung on another few minutes, we could have told you that,» he chided. What he calls a few minutes, most people would call an eternity.
I had called the same phone number in Georgia from first call to last. I had spoken to the same voice on the first call and on the last.
While this could have started as a simple mistake, all the time and phone minutes wasted, and frustration in talking to people like this, is a good reason not to order from this company. I should have been told that my order had been lost in my second phone call.

Yum. If you like fruit cake this is the place if you’re in Georgia. Very inexpensive between $ 4 – 12 and fresh if there is such a thing with fruit cake. Not only can you get fruit cake at this location, but good coffee, soda, donuts, whinners in a blanket & a throw back to simpler times.
