    Fresh squeezed OJ machine
    Angela W.

    Ya know some times you have to visit a restaurant several times to know how/what to order... I think this is the case for me with BBB. I had the BBB... eggs over easy were cooked perfectly. I chose toast over the biscuit and it was two half pieces of thick toast. I'd rather have 4 thin pieces of thin toast. I chose the sausage and it was too spicy for my taste. I also opted for the hash brown cakes... they had an odd taste that I can describe.... Not sure if they were cooked in old grease.... The bright spot was the fresh squeezed OJ... not complaints on service and the food was delivered really fast. I'll have to come back and try the pancakes or an omelet next time!

    Our waitress, Abby, was a delight to have as a host. She took care of our needs often and was responsive when we needed her. Add in a nice and friendly personality and we had a very enjoyable time. The ham on the Benny was a little too salty, but otherwise the food was great.

    5 stars for food. 1 star for service. First, I'd like to say I love that you can add yourself to the waitlist while you're getting ready and get updates on where you are in line. The food was delicious, but not hot. It was lukewarm at best. The rolls were great! Their hash browns are incredible! The BLT omelet is top notch and I love my huevos rancheros. Everything had amazing flavor and we loved our meal. However, the service was absolutely terrible. She checked on us to get us drinks at first, then never again. Someone else delivered our lukewarm food to us and then we had to hunt our waitress down for food. We're not easy to please so this was pretty disappointing especially when our waitress would walk right past us to go to another table. It was frustrating. I would recommend this place but definitely not worth a 2 hour wait unless you add yourself to the waitlist.

    Here's a tip- there was no line at 7:45am today (Wednesday) when I pulled into the plaza that the establishment resides. I walk in the door and was immediately greeted by a friendly guy who seated me at the bar. I order a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit with a side of fruit. It was a great meal. And, I will add that the fruit side was full of honeydew melon, which most of the time I consider the black licorice of the fruit world but it was INCREDIBLE. I found the staff warm and engaging. It is a quickly like place that can make a biscuit right.

    Fresh made orange juice made at BBB using fresh oranges! My husband had an omelet and stone grits and he liked it. The grits there are delicious. I got a chicken sandwich with fries. Our hill with tax was close to $42.00. July 28, 2025

    Overcooked stringy chicken on waffles
    Shawn O.

    I went on Yelp to make a reservation bc of the rave reviews and it stated that the waitlist was closed so we headed over to the restaurant anyway. Prior to our arrival at this restaurant, I sent a message to the manager asking if she could add us to the list if she had availability. By the time she responded stating that there was a 5-15 minute wait, we had already arrived at the restaurant and got on the waiting list. The hostess told us that it would be 3 minutes. 1/2 hr in, still waiting we asked the hostess when we would be seated and she claimed that she didn't tell us 3 minutes but that she told us 30 minutes. So we patiently waited and she seated us after an hour at an outdoor table. Unfortunately, the wind was blowing and dirt and hair was landing all over our water glasses so we asked to be seated inside. They seated us inside on the right side of the restaurant where there were a ton of open tables. We ordered our food and I ordered the chicken and waffles that they claim on their menu is better than Roscoes in LA. My husband ordered the creole omelette, and when our food finally arrived, the chicken was very crispy and it looked really good but it was a complete disappointment. The chicken was grossly overcooked and what little there was of the meat inside was stringy, signs of a bird that was not properly raised. His omelette was just MEH. Our waitress was scatterbrained and we had to ask for sugar, creamer, and spoon and by the time she brought each on several trips by themselves, the coffee was cold so we had to order another cup of coffee that came w/no sugar or spoon. We did not get silverware and had to ask for that with our meal. The end result was that I did not eat my meal and my husband ate half of his omelette heading out on a 2 1/2 hr trip. I do, however, appreciate that they took the chicken and waffles off of our check, but as much as I wanted to love it, I would never eat here again. The wait staff were very pleasant. As they say, keep Roscoe's name out of your mouth (off your menu). There is no comparison and we've eaten at Roscoe's.

    From the service to the meal, everything here was exceptional! It was pretty crowded inside so I asked to sit on the patio and they were more than willing to accommodate me. If you're ever in town and want to start the morning off right, BBB is the perfect spot. Shoutout to the team in the kitchen cooking well seasoned, freshly made, and filling meals for all of Oxford

    Chicken and Waffle
    Rollin C.

    I've been hearing about this place forever so was excited to try it. Great kind of funky atmosphere, service was good, I had the Chicken and Waffle which was huge! The waffle could have been crispier but the chicken was yum! My husband and son had the gumbo and we thought it was good but not spicy enough. Would go back but nothing jumped out at us.

There's outside seating and private rooms that I'd like to utilize next time I go. There was no wait time and it wasn't too loud like other restaurants at breakfast. Service: So kind, attentive, and patient! I'm not from the south but I felt like it was the epitome of southern hospitality. Our server was really great.It was great seeing the hotel and restaurant managers out and about and visible as well. Don't waste your time waiting 2+ hours for other breakfast and brunch restaurants. Head here instead!
