The Best Lemon Meringue Tart in Chamblee
Bright, tangy lemon curd under a swirl of torched, toasty meringue on a buttery European crust, the perfect balance of sharp and sweet.
Why ours is worth the trip
Real lemon curd in a crisp, buttery pastry shell. It is the sharpest thing in the case, which makes it the one to order on a day when everything else on the counter is sweet.
A natural match for an espresso or a pot of hot tea. If you need it to feed a table rather than a person, the same thing exists as a whole lemon meringue cake, made to order — call ahead.

Close to a straight run north: Peachtree Boulevard onto Tilly Mill Road, then a last stretch of Chamblee-Dunwoody Road. From central Chamblee that's about 5.9 miles and roughly 12 minutes with the road clear — the sort of distance people cover on a Saturday morning without thinking about it, and an easy detour if you're already heading toward Perimeter.
The lemon meringue tart comes out of the pastry case rather than the kitchen, so it is ready before you are. Order as you leave Chamblee and it is bagged and waiting at the end of the 12-minute drive. Come early if you can — the case is fullest in the morning.
