Great service and amazing breakfast selection, the orange juice seemed fresh squeezed and all of our food was delicious - from country ham to pancakes to huevos rancheros everything was delicious read more

Honest review here... it is very over rated. The staff was nice and the food was ok but for the price we paid it wasn't anything we couldn't make at home. Just wasn't impressed. read more

Loved this place from start to finish! Excellent service, clean environment and amazing food. I went for a lighter fare due to my plans for the day but I plan to go back and go full send on the next trip! The Irish coffee is as official as they come and the BBQ sausage was unmatched! read more

This place has punching power! I love this place! Huge plane on the wall. Great coffee. The andouille sausage has the great "Slow-Burn"(wife said it)! Stayed in the hotel above the restaurant and decided to try this gem. I got French toast and she got the Crumble. Hers looked good and she said it was fantastic! Mine was terrific. French toast was made perfect. The sausage though wow, that is really special. Still feeling some warmth 30 minutes later, of course that might be some crazy undiagnosed medical condition, let's hope not. Overall i would recommend this place to anyone. Prices are what you expect for this type of breakfast spot. Waitress was very good! Only issue was music is too loud. Should not have to raise your voice to speak to people at your table. I will come back and try other things. No wait at 8am on a Saturday. read more

pancakes are good when they have the batter right. Sometimes flat and flavorless. Sometimes the best you have had. The mixed greens are good when they are good and fresh. It's hit or miss on fresh or wilted to the point of they shouldn't be served. Avacado toast is good when the greens are fresh. Eggs are good sometimes and overcooked others. Cooks & management change frequently. They are short handed often. I would say this is some of the reason for quality control and consistency. The restaurant is loud. The staff that have been there a long while are very good at serving. They are kind and attentive. read more

It's good. I like it ok. Mmm spicy bacon. Pancakes are good too. Why do they want 85 characters?

The food is terrible. It has been going down for a while. Every time we have gone the food tastes worse. We went this past Saturday and we're done! read more

Our Favorite breakfast place! Delicious food with flavor and flair! We always have great service and the staff is friendly. So awesome to have a BBB in our local area! And this same location has extra perks - gift shop, hotel and fun downstairs restaurant (Boiler Room). read more

Yummy Breakfast & Cool Facility The breakfast was very warm and filling after the UCP Half Marathon. The wait was longer than we would have wanted 30-45 minutes but the food made up for it! read more

Big Bad Breakfast - Florence - pancakes, turkey sausage, bacon & avocado toast...all delish! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Florence, Alabama

Great atmosphere; incredible Food. Coffee and water served in real mugs and glasses...and the coffee cream in a little stainless pitcher. I ordered biscuits with sausage gravy and brûléed grapefruit and hubs had poached eggs with hollandaise. The eggs had a crispy layer of hash brown potatoes that was delectable. read more

Our food was fantastic and so was our waitress! The pickle brined fried chicken was incredible and I had to get a bottle of the chefs personal hot sauce to go! The only thing I would recommend is that the Bloody Mary I ordered felt like I was drinking chunky salsa. The taste was good, but could be a little more smooth. Overall definitely my favorite brunch spot in Florence and I cannot wait to go back! read more

Whoa on breakfast this morning! Black pepper biscuit with eggs, country ham and red eye gravy. Amazing. My server, Katie, is younger. She was great and when I asked for a coffee to go, explaining that I have a 7 hour drive home, she says "of course! Bless your heart!". Great place. Be sure to stop in! read more

Their food and customer service are amazing. We come every time we are in town. Sure do love chicken and waffles!

Food and Service were excellent. Sit at the bar at the window. Fun view of downtown Florence.

Service was excellent, didn't wait long to be seated. The place felt like a hallmark movie everyone was so pleasant. The ambiance of the place was an at home feeling, and the food was amazing. I would definitely recommend to friends or anyone read more

Unique atmosphere, great food and service. Good location, just wish the open hours were longer. read more

If you're stuck between BBB and another local breakfast spot or maybe you're discouraged because of a lengthy wait, listen to your gut and go here - you will not regret it. I made the amazing decision of ordering the big bad burger (for breakfast, yes) and was not disappointed. Topped with a fried egg, fresh tomatoes and lettuce, comeback sauce, a slice of cheese and a half pound patty you are bound to be full and happy with your choice. Everything else ordered at our table was of course just as good but I am here to preach for my burger. The service throughout our entire visit was exceptional. Everyone from the hostess to the bus boy was courteous, kind and quick. Our order did take a little longer than normal to come out but no complaints here because it came out accurate even though the restaurant was busy. I look forward to visiting some of their other locations!! read more

The food was amazing. I had a creole omelette that had lots of shrimps and crawfish in it. The wait was around an hour, but it was mid morning on a Saturday, so I'm not surprised about that. My husband had the French toast and loved it too. One thing I noticed was that several people told us how much we were going to enjoy their food, which doesn't usually happen when I go out to eat, so I knew this was going to be good. Those random friendly strangers were correct. It was amazingly good. Portions were huge. You won't need to eat until evening, and even then I didn't want much to eat. read more

A W E S O M E! Who knew? Clean, fresh and tasty food with excellent energetic service! Glad they are far from me (72 miles away) or I would eat there regularly! Look forward to next trip to Florence for a second go round! Thanks. P/S Sorry no photo, the order looked to good and I jumped right in! read more

Awesome breakfast! Awesome service! Oh the biscuit sandwich was sooo good! And my my husband got a traditional bacon and eggs breakfast. We were both happy! Love this place. read more

Food was excellent!! Well it is all the times we have eaten there.staff was excellent made you feel welcome

Came in a couple of days ago and sat at the bar! Alissa was my server and took the absolute best care of me and was very attentive! She kept a calm and collected tone even though she was visibly busy with multiple things! read more

In town for an event and was craving a good breakfast. After searching yelp, came across Big Bad Breakfast and glad I did. Ended up there for three breakfasts. I say at the counter each day and had immediate and friendly service from the counter staff. Starting with a nice big cup of coffee, I relaxed and enjoyed a little World Cup that happened to be on the tv. Day one I went with the veggie skillet and a side of the chicken bacon. Served with thick wheat toast, it was perfect. Very flavorful. And the orange marmalade was great as well. Day two started off the same with the coffee and World Cup, but opted for the flapjacks. Thick and fluffy and way too much food. The staff was friendly and delightful and the food was plentiful. If I ever find myself back in Florence, I'll definitely be back. read more

Allissa : Great this morning, excellent service! Food was good as always. Very personable!

All i can say is AMAZING service. We live about four hours from Florence and stopped at Big Bad Breakfast after a morning of fishing. Our server, Allissa, went above and beyond. She recommended our food choices, and i couldn't have been happier we gave her the reigns on that decision. The whole atmosphere of the restaurant was amazing for such a busy morning. Allissa was running around with so many tables but made us feel like a top priority. We won't forget her name because we will be all the way back again to request her service! read more

Always great service & great food. Always sit at the bar for our meals & enjoy speaking with the waitress, Angela who is wonderful!!

Name suits it well. BAD BREAKFAST! Don't think I've every had food served like this. If I could give a zero I would. Husband ask for well done bacon, delivered to the table almost see though bacon, nor even half way done. His breakfast comes with hash brown cake, 20 minutes later the waitress tell us they're out of the hash brown cake but have skillet potatoes. The plate came, still waiting for the skillet potatoes. As you can see in the picture I posted looked like they put hashbrowns in the deep fryer and burnt them, but yet still deliver them to the table late. They were hard absolutely in eatable. I ordered the Big Bad BLT..indeed it was also bad, nothing big about it. Worst BLT ever. A kid could make a better BLT. Take a look at the pictures. Almost rotten, smashed tomatoes, one tiny piece of lettuce which was wilted, and burnt bacon. We did complain to the manager and she did remove the items from our ticket. However, this is the first and last time we will patronize this restaurant. Truly, the manager couldn't believe it when I showed her the pictures. read more

A great variety,very tasty with some healthy options. Usually busy, worth the wait for really good food

Over priced! They should not be allowed to call them biscuits they are more like a roll. The fruit was fresh but way pricey For what you are getting. The atmosphere is nice - very busy though. read more

We had a bit of a wait, but they got us in faster than advertised. Had the Huevos Rancheros. Awesome. Excellent variety for a breakfast place. read more

Excellent brunch spot. A bit of a wait during the Sunday brunch rush but they took our name and called us when our table was ready. Very satisfying breakfast read more

My family and I were NOT impressed at all!!! We decided to have a meal here just after 1230pm on a Monday, they were not busy!!! We were told it was going to be a 45 minute wait with multiple tables available., so we waited! The hostess then proceeded to take what seemed like 5 minutes to figure out where to seat us. Lack of greeting your customers and a poor attitude is how this experience began. Food was over-seasoned, service was slow and had to get up to get our own condiments. The worst part as pictured, we are paying $12 a plate to eat with plastic utensils, because hostess or waitress didn't want to wrap the clean ones. The blame was passed from person to person, including the manager putting the blame on a music festival being in town. This doesn't explain the lack of work ethic from the staff. Not sure we will be back!!! read more
