Waysider
1512 Greensboro Ave, Tuscaloosa, AL
Crema's Take
“Waysider serves legitimately excellent country breakfast—we're talking about grits that'll ruin you for everywhere else, biscuits that justify a detour, and red eye gravy done right—in a tight, historic space where the chaos and good service are part of the charm. Most regulars rave about the consistency, though occasional execution hiccups mean you might want to go when they're firing on all cylinders. It's the kind of place Alabama natives bring you to prove their state knows how to do breakfast.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

This place was talked up by friends and did not disappoint! I love their breakfast options. The grits are by far the best i’ve ever had. And there’s a cute kitty that hangs out on the porch that my wife loved.
