The Best Strawberry Tart in Brookhaven
Strawberries and nothing else on top, set over vanilla crème on a buttery tart shell. Where the mixed fruit tart is a spread of everything, this one commits to a single fruit and lives or dies by it.
Why ours is worth the trip
A tart this plain has nowhere to hide. It is strawberries, crème and pastry, and all three have to be right on the day — there is no third element to cover for a dull berry.
An espresso cuts through it better than a milk drink does.

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 strawberry 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.
