Cahaba Heights is getting a new breakfast spot starting Saturday, Sept. 13, and its food is worth waking up early for. 

Big Bad Breakfast (BBB), a breakfast chain with locations across the South, is officially celebrating its grand opening at the new location in Vestavia Hills, and Bham Now got a special first look.

The menu has everything you might want from a breakfast joint, such as: 

  • Biscuits (Made from scratch all day long!)
  • Eggs benedict (We recommend the “Redneck” Benny)
  • Omelets
  • Skillets (Get all the fixin’s: Eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, veggies, cheese, potatoes and more)
  • Pancakes + waffles
  • Coffee (I’m personally a big fan of the Big Bad Cold Brew)
  • Cocktails, mocktails and juices

Some Bham Nowers and I tried a handful of dishes…

I opted for the “Mother of All Biscuits” with fried chicken and cheese on one of their freshly-cooked biscuits. I’m a big fan of a good biscuit sandwich, so I was happy with my choice. I topped it off with their hot sauce and some peach jam that were in bottles on the table.

The other folks grabbed the “Redneck” Benny — with perfectly poached eggs, ham and gravy — and the classic Biscuit and Gravy.

That’s only just the beginning of what there is to try at BBB.
