What People Are Saying About Village Corner

Village Corner
Owner
The Basket Bakery originally began as a wholesale bakery with a small additional luncheon room, operated by the Frieses, a German couple. As the bakery's customers grew, so did the popularity of Hilde's extraordinary cooking. Now in its third location, The Village Corner German Restaurant includes a traditional style German tavern, a European bakery and a cafe style dining room that serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch. A traditional German menu contains potato pancakes, Black Forest ham and Weiner Schnitzel among other selections. Our artistic and decorative bakery cakes are worthy of any special occasion. In addition The Village Corner boasts a wonderful banquet room that facilitates weddings, receptions, rehearsal dinners, parties and much more.

The Scene
Sporting a faux-Alpine look that makes an appropriate addition to the storybook Stone Mountain Village setting, Village Corner is a combination tavern, restaurant and bakery. Inside, the restaurant divides between two comfortable dining rooms with an appealing fireplace on the tavern side.
The Food
Traditional German cuisine--hearty, customary dishes for the carnivorous palate--rules the roost at Village Corner. A tasty Swiss/Bavarian fondue-like an appetizer of raclette cheese melted in a skillet and served with potatoes and gherkin pickles makes an excellent starter. The German plate is a solid entree, offering a choice between bratwurst, weisswurst, smoked sausage and knackwurst. Jaegar schnitzel--a breaded, skillet-browned veal cutlet with mushrooms and red wine cream sauce--is another good choice, in spite of being almost overwhelmingly rich. Sides are divine--you'll be tempted to eat your weight in the buttery, pan-seared spaetzle. The red cabbage is a winner, too.

Nice outdoor seating, once we got sat which took about 20 minutes and they were not even busy. The menu was limited especially for lunch/brunch. Service very disjointed. The sausage platter was excellent. I must say it was better than the German places we've eaten at in Helen- those were horrible. I would go back here to have some beer and sausage.

The Village Corner serves excellent german cuisine in a very quaint, authentic setting. The bakery features all sorts of baked goods, including breads - not just desserts! They also do cakes for special occasions and host gingerbread house workshops during the holidays.

My husband and I have patronized the Village Corner Bakery in Stone Mountain on several occasions, mainly to support businesses in our neighborhood. The food was just ok and the cakes use to taste as described on their website. This year I ordered the Grand Marnier liqueur cake for my boss, based on the description of having, ?4 layers of yellow cake soaked in Grand Marnier liqueur?. I told my boss about it and he was excited. To our disappointment and my embarrassment, there was not a hint of the orange liqueur. It basically tasted like a yellow cake with butter cream. My other complaint is when I placed the order the person I spoke with was rude. However, when I called to complain to the owner about the cake I had purchased, I found out that the rude person I had placed the order with was the owner and he was still rude! He asked, ?What do I want him to do?? I said check with the baker to insure the liqueur was not left out. He said he would and call me back. Of course I have not heard from him even after calling back and leaving a message. It would appear that customer satisfaction doesn?t matter to him, but it matters to me so that is why I am writing this review. Businesses like this don?t deserve our hard earned money. Don't waste your money here. There are a lot of businesses that take pride in customer satisfaction and the quality of their food.
