Pretty quiet when we went in - they had just opened - but it got pretty busy for lunch while we…read morewere there. You order at the counter and they bring out your food. They have a handful of tables inside and a handful of tables on the outside patio as well. They do have beer. The sandwiches we had were all very good - you can get a small (6") or large (12"). I had a Greek salad that was very tasty, but no meat on it - didn't realize that when I ordered it. I would have preferred chicken, but still a good salad. The Cuban looked amazing. And my husband really enjoyed his pastrami.

Breadworks is one of those rare bakeries that feels both thoughtfully designed and deeply…read moreauthentic. The space itself is beautiful--clean, intentional, and unique--with visual nods to milling and baking traditions. You can see elements of the mill and wheat motifs in the background, which adds a quiet sense of craftsmanship and history without feeling staged. The pastries are exceptional. Their croissants are perfectly flaky and buttery, the sourdough is deeply flavorful, and the morning buns strike that ideal balance of richness and warmth. The baguette is crisp on the outside, tender inside--everything you want it to be. Every item feels carefully made, never rushed. What stands out most is the consistency and care. Breadworks manages to feel elevated yet welcoming--refined without being pretentious. It's clear they take pride in both their craft and their process, and it shows in every bite. A true standout in Birmingham and absolutely worth returning to.

Having enjoyed the Mtn Brook location I was somewhat disappointed in the new Cahaba Heights…read morelocation. First off the interior seems much less casual upscale imo. My friend ordered the patty melt which looked like a $2.50 childrens meal sandwich. Bread was barely toasted and the patty was as thin as paper. Pretty skimpy sandwich. My bluebird salad was very good and fresh but to say it was salty would be an understatement. Our mushroom soup was great and also the Mac and cheese was great.

I got the fall turkey melt and butternut squash soup. It was SO good. I've been here a couple of…read moretimes and every single time I have been here. I have had a really great experience. The servers were really nice and friendly. The butternut squash soup was really nice thick and creamy. I felt like the portions were just right and I did not feel like anything was too greasy. It is a great place to eat with your friend or significant other. I thought it was a very cool vibe and matched the name of the restaurant! Because this is located downtown, there is street parking, or there is a parking garage down the road where you can park.

I tried the burger and fries, and they were delish. The burger had excellent flavor. One thing to note is that there is not much seating inside- one table and then bar-style seating by the windows. Worked for what we needed, but just something to be aware of in advance. We will definitely be back!

45 Minutes for a Sandwich That Should Have Never Existed…read more Stopped in on a lunch break for a simple takeout sandwich. Forty-five minutes later, my order finally appeared. I ordered their flagship sandwich and what arrived was a pile of weirdly shredded, pre-processed turkey that looked and tasted nothing like actual fresh deli meat. Not good. Just wrong. Why does it take 45 minutes to put "turkey" product on a piece of bread? And why does that experience cost $18? To top it off, the interior looks just as uninspired as the food tastes. There is genuinely no reason to come here -- not for the food, not for the atmosphere, not for the value. Skip it and go literally anywhere else.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Food first, thoughts after... I am so glad we stumbled upon…read morethis place. Absolutely delicious. I am not much of a burger person but I love burgers made like this. Fresh, handmade and not overly greasy. The sauce was not too overwhelming and paired well. This was easy to digest and honestly I could have sat there and ate two. I really wish they had fries to pair with it. Chips only. For 3 sandwiches and 2 small drinks, our total was $25.08 with $1 tip. Fast service! My burger was made before I paid with the person at the counter as she was trying to get a togo order together. Parking is overall fairly easy. This is a good solid choice for lunch/ dinner. Restaurant was clean and spacious. The layout of the tables were interesting but overall I liked the style.

We then looked for another place and finally found this place. Sometimes things just work out for what's best. The smell of good burgers were smelt before we opened the door. The smell matched the flavor and taste of each bite. My daughter and I both ordered the cheese but I ordered the slaw dog as well for later. We added the sweet tea and everything was pleasing to the tastebuds. The cooks and checkout clerks were friendly held welcoming conversations. When over this way I plan on returning. Again, everything was really good.
