Crema's Take
“Big Bad Breakfast nails Southern breakfast classics with respect and restraint—think perfectly poached eggs, shrimp and grits with a sauce that actually tastes like something, and biscuits that justify the trip alone. The diner atmosphere is genuinely cozy rather than contrived, and you'll get a substantial, well-executed meal for under $20, making this the kind of place regulars return to weekly because the fundamentals never slip.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Stopped by for breakfast and coffee this morning. I had scrambled eggs with cheese, crispy bacon, biscuit with sausage gravy, grits, and coffee. ☕️ My total came to $19 and some change. The food was great. These are some of the best grits I’ve had other than my own. The bacon…
