Grits Cafe
4.7 / 5 (316 reviews)

Description

Grits Cafe serves hearty Southern breakfasts—standout grits, grandma-style biscuits, shrimp-and-grits and chicken-and-waffles—alongside a lively, homey atmosphere and friendly staff. Many diners praise the flavor and welcoming service, even calling it a local gem, but the restaurant is often very busy: long, inconsistent waits, occasional missed drink refills and outdoor seating for large parties that can attract flies. Arrive early or call ahead to improve your chances of a timely table.

Great place to get a delicious breakfast. From the time you walk in door, you're greeted with a smile and the waitresses are the best. Loaded grits and fish, and shrimp and grits...yummy. Thanks!!

The food is delightful, and the service is excellent. The menu offers a wide variety of options, with grits taking center stage. Their biscuits are the closest you’ll ever get to your grandmother's recipe!

We waited over 35 minutes for our food, while other guests who arrived at the same time were served before us. I won't mention my race, but it seemed like there was some favoritism at play. We ended up leaving and going to Cracker Barrel instead. Please improve your service and manage wait times better.

If you have a large party I wouldn't advice this location. Not that it's the staffs fault but you may have to sit outside and the flies are horrible. The food was a 5/10 but it got to us in a timely manner.
