The wait is nearly over. After several unspecified setbacks, the newest local outpost of The Salty is expected to open Friday, February 23 at Star Metals in West Midtown. The new outpost is the third in Atlanta for the growing Florida-based chain.
In celebration of its latest opening, The Salty has partnered with Atlanta's own Fox Bros. BBQ to create a Mac n Cheese kolache. The special item, available only at the new West Midtown shop from February 23rd through 25th, features The Salty's 24-hour brioche stuffed with Fox Bros BBQ pulled pork, cheddar mac n cheese, and famous BBQ sauce.
The Salty West Midtown is located at 1050 Howell Mill Road #101, behind Northside Tavern and in the same complex as Sweetgreen, Savi Provisions, and until recently, Wagamama. Although it has a Howell Mill Road address, The Salty is not visible from Howell Mill as it's hidden behind landmark dive bar Northside Tavern.
The bakery's menu focuses primarily on assorted donuts but other baked goods include a cherry pie pop tart and cinnamon crunch cookie. The shop also features a robust variety of coffee options from Espressos and Americanos to cold brew and assorted lattes.
Established in the trendy Miami neighborhood of Wynwood in 2015, The Salty has today grown to more than a dozen locations including those in Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Atlanta, Charlotte, and even as far west as Dallas and Austin. The company entered metro Atlanta in 2023 with its first location on West Paces Ferry Road just off Peachtree Road in May which was followed by a second unit along the BeltLine Eastside Trail near Krog Street Market this past August.

This is no more a kolache than a pop tart is a tart
