We visited Christine's German Bake Shop on Saturday after driving by and feeling enticed. I'm not…read moresure how this bake shop wound up in rural north Alabama, but Christine's is the real deal! Open only Wednesday - Saturday during the day, Christine serves up mostly baked goods. She does also offer some soups as well as wurst and currywurst! Be advised that you generally have to order ahead for any kind of bread or brotchen. We sampled pretty much everything she had to offer in the late afternoon. Plum, cherry, and blueberry coffee cake as well as bienenstich (beesting cake). My mother, who grew up in the German ward of St. Louis and is from a German family, was overjoyed, as she was taken right back to her childhood. Perfectly crumbly, buttery crumb cakes with fresh fruits -- they were all delicious, but the plum was the best. I had a slice of bienenstich, which is a cake filled with vanilla custard/cream and topped with caramelized almonds. The cream was so mild and airy and paired perfectly with the crunchy, sweet almond topping. The owner and baker -- who I can only presume is Christine -- was there and she spoke to us about her life in Germany and how she has been running her bakery here for 20 years (she started at around age 40, by the way!) She had a talent for being available when we needed her and hanging back when we wanted "us" time. She was a joy and we loved talking with her. I'll absolutely order some bread in the future and make the drive out. It'll be great to see Christine again! If you're looking for a road trip out of Huntsville -- this is one not to miss.

I felt like I need to come back and add to my review, after giving them another try, and meeting up…read morewith some women I met from church. We were able to talk about Mudslingers and why we personally feel like the business isn't good. With that, I really wanted to love Mudslinger's Coffee in Owens Cross Roads. I'd heard about them for a while and was hoping they'd bring something special to the local coffee scene -- but unfortunately, my experiences have been consistently disappointing. The biggest issue isn't just the coffee, it's the attitude behind it. Their espresso and drinks often have a bitter, almost burnt taste that doesn't line up with what you'd expect from "fresh espresso." Many people -- myself included -- have noticed this and given feedback, but instead of addressing it or offering to remake a drink, the response tends to be dismissive. They often say, "That's how our espresso tastes," as if that ends the conversation. But anyone who's had truly fresh espresso knows that's not how it should taste. What's frustrating is that this isn't a one-time issue. There are many similar reviews online mentioning the same problems -- both with the taste of the drinks and the customer service. When so many people are saying the same thing, it's a sign that something needs to change. But instead of trying to fix the problem, it feels like Mudslinger's has chosen to ignore it. Another thing that stands out is the inconsistent service. Sometimes, the workers are warm and chatty -- but only with certain people. It honestly gives off a bit of a "clique" vibe, where if you're a regular or part of their social circle, you'll get friendly conversation and great service. But if not, you might get a quick "hi" and "bye," and a cold, rushed interaction. It's disheartening to watch someone in front of you get a five-minute friendly chat while you're met with barely a word. Which ended up making a lot more sense to me once I realized almost everyone who works there is related, and many people who have worked there had a bad experience because of said family. Which personally, I think it half of your reviews are made up of your literal workers making "good reviews" then that is a big even sign in itself... But, that is just my opinion, cause as a past business owner I would never go and write good reviews for my own business? Just not ok, whatsoever! Which... If you can come on here and give your own business a review, why can't you respond to customers trying to give very much needed feedback... What makes this even more disappointing is that customer service is where great coffee shops usually shine. A good coffee shop understands that coffee is a personal experience -- that not everyone likes the same flavors or intensity. The best ones take feedback seriously, and instead of hiding behind excuses, they make things right. It's refreshing when a business truly values its customers and listens to them -- unfortunately, that just hasn't been my experience here. To wrap this up though, I truly hope Mudslinger's listens to all this feedback. Owens Cross Roads has a lot of great coffee shops that not only serves great drinks, but also treat every customer with the same kindness and respect. So it would be great to feel that here as well. A little effort, humility, and genuine care could make all the didn't

I didn't expect it to be half full when I went in with only one car outside, it must be a local favorite. The menu has not only classics but some interesting twists too. We were told to grab a menu and sit anywhere we wanted. Then once you know your order you place it at the counter & pay. I got the breakfast Panini with avocado added. My husband got a half chicken salad salad and a glorified grilled cheese. We also got a pretzel salad to try. Portion sizes were great, the food was delicious and inventive. I loved the ginger citrus dressing that was for the salad, I even asked them where it was from. We were told they make it in house. The pork in the grilled cheese tasted so fresh & flavorful. They also gave us water cups & their water is good ( must be filtered) We will definitely be back. Also a plus, they are open earlier then a lot of other eating establishments.

The girl who took our order was incredibly friendly, and the service was quick from the moment we walked in. I ordered Dad's Egg Sandwich, and Mom got the Vegetable Frittata. The bacon on my sandwich was the standout--nice, thick, and perfectly cooked. My only complaint is that the menu mentioned garlic, but I honestly couldn't taste any. If you're going to promise garlic, I want to taste garlic! Mom really enjoyed her frittata, although I think she's getting a little tired of egg dishes lately. She especially loved the toast and whatever butter they served with it. It almost tasted like maple butter, and it was delicious. The fresh fruit was also excellent (I happily finished Mom's!). My only real complaint is the size of the restaurant. It's a cozy space, but I can see it getting crowded very quickly during the breakfast rush. Overall, everything was wonderful. Friendly staff, fast service, and a delicious breakfast. We'll definitely be back!

After going to the farmer's market, we decided to stop by to pick up some breakfast at Edgar's…read more This is a chain restaurant. Walking inside on Saturday around 8:15, there weren't many customers. I walked up to the counter and ordered Dave the All American Breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon, cheddar biscuit and potatoes. I ordered the Southwest Omelette with sausage, green peppers, onions, cheddar cheese, diced tomatoes and a side of potatoes and toast. All American. Breakfast with scrambled eggs, bacon, cheddar biscuit, and potatoes was Dave's order. The cheddar biscuit was nearly the size of my hand. Easily 2.5 times larger than average biscuits. My former manager, Jimmy Randolph, told me years ago that his mother made cat head biscuits. The biscuit was at least the size of a cat's head. The cheddar biscuit was delicious. Dave said everything about his order except the potatoes was ok. He is a simple man who does not want green peppers, onions or anything else cooked with his potatoes. As soon as he saw the add ons to his side of potatoes, he had a grumpy look. He refused to eat said add ons. He said he wouldn't order a side of potatoes again. 3/5 My Southwest Omelette and potatoes was average. The omelette was cooked too much. It was dry. There wasn't enough cheese in my humble opinion. The potatoes were ok. The potatoes were boiled with no crisp edges. I prefer crispy potatoes. I did eat the add ons. They were flavorful. 3/5 The menu lists breakfast potatoes. No description of additional bell peppers and onions added. I bought a few petit fours. Two vanilla and two chocolate for $8. They were beautifully decorated and tasted good. They were not the best I have had but not the worst. 4/5 I will return to Edgar's. They have many bakery items to select from. If you have a need for a fast birthday cake or any dessert, they have it. Please stop by and try their desserts. You will enjoy them. 4/5
