    My husband and I had brunch before heading to the Duke/Tech basketball game. Our first visit. We thought it was excellent. We had the patatas bravas and the potato tortilla to start. I had the Bulla burger and he had the Huevos Bulla. Both were really good. We ended with Churros and the Blueberry and Ricotta pancakes (my only mistake; while good, too much after the other food). I tried both versions of the Margarita. Again, would order either of them again. We also thought the brunch pricing was a great value. Our server, Sophia, was very friendly and efficient. Bulla is a definite winner.

    A yummy dining experience! The food offers a perfect blend of flavors that truly satisfies. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing meal with friends. The music adds to the overall vibe, with an uplifting tempo that enhance the atmosphere without being overwhelming. The sweet potato cornbread wasn’t a hit, and should be taken off the menu (in my opinion).

    H&F, just might be my new favorite restaurant in Atlanta! This cozy, comfortable pub house style restaurant is tucked into the heart of Midtown. Food was incredible- they own the right to say “house-made”…try their pickles! OMG! I wanted a jar of them to go! Service was impeccable. Thank you Brandon for a wonderful experience- we will be back! Fish-n-Chips were phenomenal and one bite of their cheeseburger and you instantly know why it has been voted No. 1 for so many years!! Cocktails made the evening conversation, fun and Tasty!! Do yourself a treat…book a lunch or dinner and enjoy it as much as we did!
