Giulia first opened at The Forum Peachtree Corners. The concept from brothers Ben and Seth Gjuka is inspired by the Italian art of baking, using natural, high-quality ingredients. The menu features a range of signature pastries including croissants and savory sandwiches, along with a selection of coffee beverages like espressos, macchiatos and cappuccinos.

The 900-square-foot patisserie will be designed as a “cozy, welcoming space for guests to relax and enjoy conversations with friends,” according to an announcement. It will be located next to the Gjukas’ upcoming full-service restaurant, Luga.

Giulia is one of several new tenants announced for Avenue East Cobb, along with luxury bedding store Boll & Branch, women’s apparel brand Nic + Zoe and Japanese restaurant Tenku Sushi Elevation.

Avenue East Cobb is a 30-acre development in Marietta. It originally opened in 1999. In July 2021, North American Properties (NAP) entered a joint venture partnership with the development’s owner PGIM Real Estate to revamp the shopping, dining and entertainment center. NAP launched redevelopment in August 2022 and completed it in a year, debuting the revitalized destination in September 2023.

“It’s been such an exciting journey introducing new retailers, restaurants and entertainment to the East Cobb community – and it’s only going to get better,” Avenue East Cobb marketing manager Madison Murphy said in a statement. “There’s nothing we love more than creating memorable guest experiences, and these additions will certainly help us do that.”
