The Best French Roast Beef Sandwich in Brookhaven

French Roast Beef Sandwich at Crema Espresso Gourmet near Brookhaven

Tender roast beef on an Italian ciabatta roll with garlic aioli, red onion, pickles, tomato and arugula. A proper, satisfying sandwich.

Why ours is worth the trip

Made when you order it, on ciabatta that is fresh that day — which is what keeps the roll crisp under the garlic aioli instead of softening into it.

A Greek salad alongside turns it into a proper lunch rather than a snack.

Easy to reach from Brookhaven

About 15 minutes up from Brookhaven, on Mount Vernon Road in Dunwoody, worth the trip for something baked fresh that morning.

The drive from Brookhaven

Distance
7.9 miles
Drive

Measured from
Brookhaven City Hall

The longest of the three runs, and the one worth a little planning. From Brookhaven City Hall on Peachtree Road it's about 7.9 miles: up onto Peachtree Boulevard, then west across Tilly Mill Road, which lands near 15 minutes when the road is clear. Far enough that ordering before you set off genuinely changes the trip rather than saving you thirty seconds.

The french roast beef sandwich is made to order, which is rather the point of ordering before you set off from Brookhaven: we are building it while you drive, so those 15 minutes are the wait rather than being added to it.

Distance and time measured from Brookhaven City Hall with OpenStreetMap routing. Free-flow, so treat it as a clear-run figure rather than a promise at 8am.
