Los H.

Edgar's Bakery is an Alabama treasure. In the near 20 years since I was first introduced to Edgar's, the bakery has expanded across the Birmingham area and added multiple locations in Huntsville. I have not had a strawberry cake or cupcake in all my travels that can rival Edgar's strawberry cake. I challenge you to. The employees were nice and exhibited the Southern charm you'd expect. The dining tables are lined up against the windows and extend into the middle of the space. The rest of the interior space is occupied by various tables and stands of baked goods and treats. This visit was my first time ever having food. I ordered the bacon omelet with grits and toast. It was fine, nothing spectacular. It was good enough for me to eat there again but nothing that I'd say you have to go out and get. If you haven't tried the strawberry cake or strawberry cupcake, you HAVE TO- MUST- stop in and try one or both of them.

Edgar's Chicken Melt
Jon L.

Edgar's is a well-known bakery with a few locations around Huntsville. I tried the popular location in the "village" of Providence. In a bakery for breakfast, I ordered the cinnamon roll but was very unimpressed. It was surprisingly cold and dry. However, I did enjoy the Chicken Melt, which has avocado, peppers, and cheese. The avocado was by far my favorite. Though the side of pasta salad tasted like one of those grocery store deli items that sit behind the case all day. While it's hard to mess up cinnamon rolls and pasta salad, perhaps I ordered the wrong baked goods, so I may give Edgar's another shot.

Biscuits and gravy

Biscuits and gravy were disappointing! The gravy has no taste and is so thick and doughy...too much flour. It came out looking like it had been sitting on the plate for hours. We also ordered Eggs Benedict and my husband wasn't a fan. He only ate a few bites. $50.00 wasted. :/ They are busy selling a lot of cakes and pastries from the bakery so that must be their specialty. It's definitely not their brunch food. Chai latte was good. Atmosphere is nice. Lots of room to find a good seat. *Tyler, a manager, did talk through this with me and allowed me to share my customer experience.*

You can see how even the top has shrunk, showing the cake , the bottom it's sinking after I pushed it together

Listen, update to my previous review. I'm still extraordinarily disappointed in this cake, but to their credit the manager after seeing my review did reach out to me. I did get a refund. Fix I actually had already called my bank and they had already credited me because I had paid for strawberries which I did not get in the cake was a disaster. My concern about ordering a cake ever again would be if this was a baby shower or something really special not that my daughter's birthday wasn't but it was Family. If you ordered a cake for a party and you got this, you would be beyond furious. I'm sorry to say it's just not reliable enough to order.. it was such a disaster that as a family we've decided next year for any cake we're going to make our own.! Sorry edgarg's you've lost at least three groups of our family!

Great open space to work or visit in. Wonderful breakfast, and always great sweets. Everyone is always kind and friendly as well. Anytime I'm in town I have to stop by for a treat or spend my afternoon working from here!

What has happened to this place? 4/6/23 The tall, blonde, female with all the necklaces cashier was an unfriendly robot, she wasn't helpful at all. I asked what came on a sandwich and she said here's a menu you can read it, I had to step out of line and dig for my reading glasses and read the menu (The menu board doesn't list what's on each sandwich.) It's been a year or so since we have eaten at Edgar's and I noticed their pre sliced cake are now half the size they were before. My Apple Jack sandwich didn't have the usual cranberry bread but instead served it on walnut bread. The walnut bread crust was so hard I could barely bite through. For a cranberry sandwich, there were no cranberries on it at all. Very disappointing. In addition, in the past when you order a side you always got chips with your meal. I got no chips today. Now the tea, on the other hand, was the best in all of Huntsville The place look the same still cute.

When I grow up, I wanna be a Reuben!

"What side do you want?" "Hmm, what's the pepper slaw?" Actual response: "I don't know. It's like slaw, with peppers. I think it's mayo-based." Factually accurate response: "It's a vinegar-based slaw with chopped green peppers. And we're going to serve it on a lettuce leaf, so it looks pretty. But the vinegar is going to run all over the plate, turning the bottom half of your sandwich into a doughy, soggy mess." Third time here. Second time it didn't live up to expectations. Time to move on.

I ate here twice and once ordered out a bunch of pastries and turkey roll ups for a meeting. Love this place. Service inconsistent but food makes up for it. The avocado egg sandwich was delicious. I got it on grain bread without the hot sauce. So delicious. The pastries could kill any diet. I loved the cookies and mini cakes. The turkey roll up was good. The cinnamon bun is the target next trip!

No one and still I wait 20+ minutes for my food

We sat at the bar and had the greatest time with Emmaline! I told her to just make me something…read moresweet and she made me the best berry martini! Food was amazing and our drinks were even better! Such a great atmosphere!

This was our first time visiting this location. We've been to two of their other locations, and…read moreboth were fantastic, so we were hoping this one would live up to our expectations. In many ways, it did, but there was one area where it fell short. They chose an excellent location for this restaurant, right in the heart of one of the liveliest and most popular areas of Huntsville/Madison. We had reservations, which I would recommend, and were seated right away. Our server came by a few minutes later to take our drink order, but then we didn't see him again for a while. On the bright side, my wife absolutely loved the Shakshuka, and my fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, and fried okra were all very tasty. The food certainly lived up to our expectations! Unfortunately, the service could have been much better. Our server was rather blunt and not particularly friendly, and we felt a little rushed throughout our visit. Overall, the food and location were great, but the service left something to be desired. We've had wonderful experiences at their other locations, so hopefully this was just an off day. We would have enjoyed our visit much more with a friendlier, more attentive server.

We were in Huntsville after a meeting. This place had good reviews on Google. It is super quaint,…read moreParking right out front. 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.

This review is for the new Five Points location…read more Mom and I finally made it to Good Company Café in Five Points for breakfast today, and we had a wonderful experience. 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!
