Corner Bakery Cafe T3

Meh. My expectations weren’t high. I have no clue why I used to rave about this place in college. The Chicago locations of course are nicer than your airport express. But I would’ve at least hoped the food quality would be comparable. Either way my options were limited in Gate T. My «breaded» (not a crumb in sight) Mac and cheese looked like a microwave minute meal. Nothing close to the cavatappi entrée I recall getting in my Chicago days. I guess NY Laguardia’s new terminal with wide food options had me spoiled.

I got so sick after eating here. Food poisoning. Never again! I spent my holiday vomiting and shivering in bed. If I had more time and motivation, I would sue this place. Call the health department! Or John Taffer.

I will say this, they are very prompt and accurate with the order but the sandwich I order (bacon & cheddar panini) was not that great.
The bread was a bit hard so I barely made it through the the first half, I ended up just removing the bread altogether & eating just the cheese & bacon.
I’ve been to corner bakery before & typically their food is good, perhaps I just caught them on a bad day.

I ordered a caesar salad. Service was fast, and the salad initially appeared good, but it was a mixture of seemingly fresh lettuce with old, very wilted or brown lettuce. The coutons were very incredibly stale and not crunchy at all.

With a super short layover on the lackluster lower Terminal D, I needed a quick, reasonably healthy bite. There was no line here, so I jumped in and asked the cashier what I could order that would take as little time as possible.
«What can I get that will be ready quickly?»
«How much time do you have?»
««Five minutes.»
«A panini.»
«Let’s do it!»
Yes, this was our actual conversation. The Chicken Pomodori panini was made fresh and quickly, and they even accommodated my request to hold the spinach. The cashier was friendly, to boot. I was in, out, and over to my gate just in time to make it before boarding.
When short on time, your best bet is probably Corner Bakery Café or the Subway up the terminal — but this place is fresher!

Only eat here in an emergency. The whole place could be just a vending machine, as nothing is made fresh.
Do yourself a favor and go to XX and read through my review for that place, it could be the best in the airport.
I guess I’ll just sit here and eat my day old salad in shame. Should have known better, but first time in T-​terminal. Never again.

I purchased an overpriced cinnamon muffin and Caesar salad. The cinnamon muffin was so oily that my hands were shiny from touching it. It was disgusting. For the Caesar salad, the lettuce was brown, there was liquid on the bottom of the container, and the croutons were like gum because they had been in the container so long that moisture from the lettuce turned them to a disgusting consistency. I know it’s airport food, but this has to be some of the worst that I have ever bought, and I fly somewhere about 30 weeks per year. To add insult to injury, I paid almost $ 13 for that garbage.

I’m so sick of going places & getting bad or less than sub-​par service. If u don’t feel like dealing w/​ppl 2day, STAY HOME. I’m beginning 2 wonder if it’s me. I wasn’t feeling good on this particular day & needed sum chicken noodle soup. The bowl was so small & there was a HUGE issue about my employee discount. The girl @ the register called her mhr over w/​a ‘tude, of course.
The soup was NOT hot. I probably won’t go bak. EVER.

They didn’t have iced coffee on the menu, so I compromised and ordered a frappé instead. It took over fifteen minutes — I thought I was going to miss boarding — and when they served it to me, half of it was dripping over the sides like a blown out nappie. But hey, good proximity to T3!

I ordered the cold oats with fruit. It was absolutely terrible, the strawberries were rotten and the oats were mushy and not edible. Disappointing as their larger locations are good.

Got a southwest chicken salad during a very short layover. Salad was decent, but clearly had been sitting out all day. It was a bit soggy, and didn’t come with any dressing (nor did the cashier offer any). I didn’t realize it didn’t have dressing until i opened it at my gate. Oh well. I was hungry and running low on time. So I gobbled it up.

A tired traveler just looking for a cup of soup…, Unfortunately, the workers here were less than warm as was the soup.

There really isn’t much in the lower T gates, so finding Corner Bakery was a pleasant surprise. The chopped salad I had while I waited for my flight to board was fresh, even though it was prepacked before arriving to be sold. Yep, even at 9:00 PM the lettuce was still crispy. Good toppings, but I would have preferred to have it without bacon this time.
They do make the sandwiches to order, at least.
Nice seating area with power outlets so that you can charge up while you eat up.

The T terminal at ATL is quite lacking in the food scene. And although you can take the train to other terminals, sometimes there is just not enough time between flights.
However, Corner Bakery can deliver some healthy-​ish choices (i.e. salads and paninis over the fried chicken a couple gates down) in a rush. They are quick and efficient — two terms sometimes lacking in an airport.

Got a combo of half a chicken pesto sandwich and a cup of tomato basil soup. The soup was too sweet, and the sandwich was a sad little thing. The bread was dry and tasteless (so that’s what «ciabatta ficelle» is? do not want) and the ingredients (a slice of tomato, two dry pieces of chicken, arugula) were falling out. More pesto mayo could have made it a lot better. The fudge brownie was good, though!
Don’t be fooled by the fancy-​looking menu — this place isn’t any better than the other offerings at Terminal T.

Greasy, slimy, horrible panini. Bread is coated with what seems to be some industrial food grade lubricant to achieve a crispy crust with a cooking oil after taste. I could not finish eating the panini. Tomatoes were dripping out of the sandwich, and the ham looked like the Oscar Mayer type you buy at the supermarket.

Not a bad spot — got the Anaheim scramble breakfast which was ok. It came with some toasted sourdough bread and fruit, both of which were good. Pricey, but being in an airport, that’s to be expected. I wouldn’t mind returning on my next layover.

When you’re stuck at the Atlanta airport in Terminal T, the food pickings are a little slim. It’s the closest terminal to anything, and yet the food choices are saddo.
That being said, when my boyfriend and I were there recently waiting for our connecting flight to Miami and then Trinidad, we semi-​lucked out. Besides the non-​descript fast food place (it used to be a Burger King), a Goldberg’s Deli and some sports bar, there’s a Corner Bakery Café.
Of course, the Corner Bakery was at the other end of the terminal but we had time to kill, so we hauled our bags down, stood in line and ordered an overpriced chicken panini from the little counter. As you’d expect the airport-​version of Corner Bakery doesn’t sport the full menu, but it does a pretty good job, especially considering the other options available to you.
In a few minutes our sandwich was out (we were just splitting one since it was still pretty early in the day), and we took a seat at the little bar alongside the Corner Bakery. There’s also some small tables and chairs if you prefer as well.
The chicken pomodoro panini tasted pretty good: grilled sourdough bread, chicken, spinach, tomatoes, provolone cheese and pesto spread. It was hot, it was quick and it was a much better choice than anything else near us. It was a little more expensive than I would have expected (airport pricing, I guess), but oh well. It did the trick.

Pre-​package basic quality you can pull off any shelf in a refrigerated shelf at any airport. I added avocado and was charged $ 1 for one slice the size of your pinky finger. Keep walking Unilocalers.

Unlike the previous Unilocaler, I had a quality sandwich and salad combo. My greens and tomatoes were fresh and the bread was tasty. It was great to have a choice from the other chains in T Terminal.
