    Abe Cyclonr
    Saundra G.

    Amazing service, drinks and food. Best cheese grits I've ever had. Menu selection was vast and server's knowledge was most appreciated.

    Abe's Cyclone
    Heather B.

    First time here and did not disappoint! Brunch was absolutely delicious! Very clean and our server Kate was so sweet. We had Abe Cyclone's to drink and I had the lobster and Brie omelette and my friend had the apple fritter French toast. Both cooked to perfection and are highly recommended. And the loaded grits made with Gouda, bacon and green onion were AMAZING!!! Will be back to try more!!

    The Supreme Omelette
    Lanisha S.

    Love this place! The service was really good and everything came out fast. My only complaints were that the potatoes didn't taste fresh and the gumbo had a slight fishy taste. Other than that, everything else was great and I would still come back!

    Another Broken Egg is a place I constantly forget about because I just don't see them often anymore. I was in the area and decided to stop by for pancakes and their lunch duo with fried chicken salad and jambalaya. The pancakes were good, fried chicken salad was nothing special, jambalaya was a pool of oil (the oil was covered by the egg). My server Stacy was sweet, however, she was inattentive, made no table touches, was more concerned about if she was closing today. My issue could have been resolved long before it was if she had checked in. There were tables and floors that needed attention. A server almost slipped on a butter packet that was dropped by a previous server who just left it. Salt and pepper grinders need to be wiped. The server waiting tables directly across from me (black young lady with a long braided ponytail) was great though. I witnessed her constantly check in with her tables, she was personable, smiling, quick on her feet. A couple of people who she checked out complimented her service as well. Should you go here? Maybe. Everyone else appeared to enjoy their visits.

    Shrimp 'N Grits
    Nia A.

    The shrimp n grits is definitely my go to at ABE! My group and I were able to be seated quickly early on a Saturday morning. Our server wasn't good but everything else was. Not my favorite brunch spot anymore but still a good pick.

    For French toast with side of fruits and grits - there two sides were substitutes to meat options

    Excellent food and service Love this place - best thing is to get on wait list Their coffee is amazing - they even have a decaf option

    Bloody Mary

    Our server today was Alex. He was very attentive and also suggested entrées to us. My brunch date had never been here before, but he was very impressed with the shrimp and grits. He got a bloody Mary that he really liked I got an apple mimosa that was delicious. I got the eggs Benedict. Not sure if I would get them again. The ham was very thick but other than that, it was delicious. The breakfast potatoes were a little dry, but I got a ranch on the side. I've been coming here for years and I've never had a bad experience. It's kind of hidden and if you're not familiar with it, you probably would never go. But I encourage you to try out this brunch place. It's so delicious.

    Had an overall okay experience -- it wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible either. It was half empty when we went for brunch, but our waitress was awfully slow and we sat there waiting for a bit to order. She also wasn't friendly either. My water glass came with food stains so I asked for a new water, but the waitress didn't take the old glass with the stain away. The food was alright -- the hash brown benedict was too salty, but I did appreciate how crispy it was. The poached eggs were very dense in texture and had no flavor. The side potatoes weren't even remotely warm, just cold. The soft shell scrambler was alright, nothing special. The apricot streusel pancakes were insanely sweet, and the eggs and sausage that came with it were also cold. Given our experience, we're not too inclined to come back. Maybe it was because it was a slower day that the quality of the food wasn't that great, but also it was a Friday afternoon. This place wasn't the worst, but I feel like there are better brunch places around.

    Lemon Blueberry Mimosa
    Derrick M.

    Excellent morning cocktails and rotating seasonal menu make this one of our favorite brunch spots in Birmingham!

    Veggie Delight Omelette
    Ginger S.

    I went on a Saturday morning when they first opened. It's a fantastic location; the staff offers excellent suggestions. The omelet is very light and delicious, and it is cooked fresh. The building has very good natural lighting. Please stop by and see the staff soon to try the coffee. This was a good visit.

    Tiramisu French Toast, very solid seasonal dish! Get it while it last!
    Alex P.

    Good food, great service. Like the management of the wait list and seating setup, as the hostess set the table with menus prior to seating us.

    Lemon Mascarpone Pancakes with scrambled eggs and Chicken Sausage
    Taysia Q.

    Food was delicious. The portions so hefty that I wasn't able to finish it all. Although the line was hanging out of the door, they handled everyone with generous service. There was enough room to fit all of the people that were constantly flooding in. Everyone was very nice and helpful.

    Chicken bid BROKEN EGG Biscuit Sandwich and City Grits
    Richard W.

    We had a group of 8 adults and 2 children under 2. It was a busy Sunday and they were able to seat us in under 20 minutes! The service was excellent as well as the food. Our server was taking care of our 10 top plus another 4 tables in the room! What a star. I ordered the Chicken biscuit sandwich with the egg over medium and the City grits on the side, All the food at the table was delicious, but the kicker to the whole meal is when our server brought out a little plate of fruit and cheese for the babies! What a wonderful experience Mountain Brook You guys were Fantastic

It's also got great coffee, (beans from June), and great pastries, (from Last Call), so you can be sure that if you stop in for your morning caffeine fix that you'll get top of the line goods across the board. I've tried a few things on the menu and so far it's been all hits and no misses. Aside from that, at night the bar opens up and they've got a well curated list of interesting cocktails that should satisfy anyone looking to get a few drinks and enjoy the evening. So this place kind of has it all. Coffee and cocktails, cozy vibes inside, a good backyard patio surrounded by trees, and a genuinely friendly and welcoming staff that seems to be doing a great job.

Parking is street parking only, but we didn't have too much trouble finding a spot. They offer pastries and I noticed they also serve breakfast items, though we stopped in just for coffee this time. The shop was fairly full, which is always a good sign, but there were plenty of small tables that comfortably seat two to four people, so it never felt cramped. The baristas were super friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall positive vibe. My partner and I ended up lingering longer than planned while we talked through our day's plans -- always a sign of a great coffee spot. Warm atmosphere, delicious drinks, and kind staff make this an easy five-star experience. I'll definitely be back to try more of their cat-themed creations!
