    Chorizo & Egg Tacos.
    Edward P.

    Grit's Cafe isn't playing around when it comes to breakfast. If you show up at opening time, expect a short line to get in the cafe. Once the doors are opened, you just take a seat at whichever table is open. It's a small cafe that's clean and nicely decorated. The servers are friendly and personable. They have a nice selection of breakfasts and everything I saw being delivered to other tables looked delicious. I saw some massive breakfast sandwiches as well. I had the Cajun Omelette which was good but that biscuit was one of the best I've ever tasted. I'd go back for a dozen to take home if they sold them by the dozen. My wife had the Wakie-Wakie which came with Conecuh sausage which was delicious. I will absolutely be back when I'm there this spring.

    ( February 2025) Cute little place, not much seating but it is worth the wait. All of our food was good & The biscuits were the Best we've ever had! A must when we're in Millbrook! (Only open Saturday & Sunday)

    Food and service were amazing as always. Food was SEASONED, fish and pork chops were crispy, steak was juicy! Our server Renita was the sweetest! Patio and bathroom was very clean.

    Pork Chop plate

    We stopped in for a late breakfast on a Sunday morning while headed to the beach in the gulf, AL. Always happy to try a local spot. The menu here is good. I went with the pork chops, eggs, biscuit and potato meal. My wife had two eggs, bacon, potatoes and a biscuit. There was about a 30-40 minute wait but we were seated as soon as possible and service was friendly. The menu did describe the chops as "thick" so they understandably took a bit to cook to perfection (all items are made to order per the menu), but it was probably 45 minutes from our order to service because of that. Many tables around us who arrived after us got their food first--but again, chops take time. I guess I didn't expect that much time so a quick heads up at order would have been appreciated, but not an overwhelming deal. Eggs were cooked perfect to order for both of us, bacon good, potatoes good. The chops were very good. I did think my plate came with gravy for that biscuit but if so, I didn't get that--but had plenty to eat. Everything was a touch on the salty side (even my eggs had a visible sprinkling of seasoning salt) and the huge biscuits were flavorful but very flaky--so likely even better in gravy. Would definitely try this place again if passing through the area. VERY fair prices, great layout, good folks.

    Grilled turkey and provolone sandwich with corn salsa

    My partner and I happened to be spending the weekend in Prattville and decided to give this place a try because of a recommendation from a friend. We arrived around 12 on a Sunday and every table was full. We had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated, which was fine. It showed how popular this little joint was. I ordered the special that day, which was a grilled turkey and provolone sandwich with corn salsa. It also came with fries, which was a happy surprise, though a little much. I took home some leftovers. My partner got their pancake breakfast with sausage and he devoured his meal. His only complaint was that he wished for more because it was so good, despite the fact he was so full (the pancakes are for sure hefty). If you find yourself in town on a weekend, definitely give this place a try. It may be unassuming on the outside and a little out of the way, but it is worth it. We will for sure be back ourselves.

    Chicken and waffles

    I cannot say enough good things about this place! The worst part is the wait because of how good this place is! I tried the shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles, steak and eggs, and cinnamon roll. EVERYTHING was great. Our server was so sweet and attentive and made great conversation. I will be back and recommend this place to every one I can

    Stunning coffee shop! From a great selection of baked goods to delicious drinks. They even have…read moreAlabama made kombucha on tap! The art on the walls as you walk in fits the vibe. They have a comfy couch seating area towards the back and that looks out the window to a mural. The vibe is chill and classy like an early evening hang out with a bar like serving space. They also offer alcohol on draft. I ordered an iced matcha with oat milk. They use a good matcha powder that is not presweetened, which I prefer. My husband prefers their coffee too over other coffee shops in town. He usually orders an americano. Would return next time we're in town!

    Went to Prevail for breakfast while visiting Montgomery. Beautiful location, and very quiet area…read moreduring the morning(except the alarm that was blaring, I'm sure it doesn't happen often.) The fresh pastries looked great, and Alex patiently informed me about local Conecuh sausage, which I proceeded to order the Conecuh croissant. It was delicious! The Honey Coffee with Macadamia Nut Milk had good, strong coffee with a little sweetness, which is my preference. The fruit cups were good too, but seemed to attract the fruit flies. The ambience is so great! You can sit quietly in a corner to work or read, or have joy and laughter close by. The employees are friendly and the customers are considerate too. I suppose it's just the South. My only qualm is that it would be great if they open earlier than 7am. There were a few customers waiting, including me, that were at door before opening time.
