A little bit of a drive, so it's not someplace we personally frequent. But if you are a serious hiker, this is one of our area's hottest spots.

Must. Eat. Burger. Made-from-scratch-at-your-table guacamole is another must-have. I also really like their chopped salad.

My personal favorite. Owned and operated by famed chef, Frank Stitt. Italian fare, best to have a reservation for the dining side, or walk-in to the cafe side. I actually prefer the ambiance of the cafe side. Be prepared to wait an hour or more (at the bar) if you arrive much after 6 pm on the weekends though.

I have actually never been here because big, fatty breakfasts are honestly not my thing! But I often get requests from guests for nearby breakfast places, and Bogue's has a strong following. It is also just down the street and opens early.

PERFECT place for Sat morning breakfast, right in the midst of the Pepper Place Farmer's Market, a weekly Birmingham ritual and institution. Great way to spend a Sat morning! (Pepper Place is open nearly year-round, rain or shine. But check their website, just in case you happen to be visiting the few weeks out of the year it is closed. ;)
