The Best Fruit Tart in Brookhaven

Fruit Tart at Crema Espresso Gourmet near Brookhaven

A jewel-box of fresh seasonal fruit over smooth vanilla crème on a crisp, buttery European tart shell. As beautiful as it is good, the kind of dessert people photograph before they take a bite.

Why ours is worth the trip

Made the European patisserie way: mixed fruit over a French vanilla custard on a crust that actually crunches. Mixed means mixed, so no two are laid out quite the same.

Lovely alongside a cappuccino or an afternoon latte. There is a whole-cake version too, the Summer Fruit Tart, made to order for birthdays.

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
about 15 min
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 fruit tart comes out of the pastry case rather than the kitchen, so it is ready before you are. Order as you leave Brookhaven and it is bagged and waiting at the end of the 15-minute drive. Come early if you can — the case is fullest in the morning.

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.
