In case you were starting to think about breakfast...
Southern Egg is at the end of a tiny, unsexy real estate-focused retail cluster across from the former Grissom High School and current Sandra Moon Community Center and South Huntsville Library. The café's address is 7900 Bailey Cove Road S.E.
Southern Egg opened around a year ago, and even debuting during a pandemic they’ve attracted regulars. On a recent Tuesday around 8:45 a.m., eight of 11 tables in the home-garage-sized dining room were occupied. And not just retirees either. Families with young kids. Friends meeting up for breakfast, coffee and conversation. A diverse mix of guests. Looking out the tinted dining room windows, there’s a lovely mountainous vista.
The menu description for a Southern style chorizo entrée sounded rad, so that’s what I did. Scattered hashbrowns cooked with chorizo, bell peppers, onions and cheddar cheese topped with two eggs your way and served with biscuit. My food arrives about the time I finish my first cup of hot and ‘70s-truckstop-level coffee .The breakfast itself is just what you want from a place like this. Melty, stringy forkfuls. The chorizo was season but not spicy.
Earlier, I asked the server for how he’d order the eggs for the Southern style chorizo, and he recommended over-medium. Once the meal arrives, the eggs stirred into the potatoes, chorizo and cheese work appealing yoke alchemy. Next time though I’d probably get soft-scrambled, my default egg order. The biscuit on the side was soft and sensibly sized, not a cat-head Bubba-buster. They’ll bring out packages of jam for you, but I had to ask for them.
At one point during my meal, another customer headed out the door turns around and says to the server, “See you tomorrow.” That’s a better summation of my Southern Egg Cafe experience than any Yelp review. The place is open 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. More info atWith development in Huntsville in fifth-gear, new-to-market dining options are lining up to come here. And cooler, local ventures keep popping up in hotspots like downtown and West Huntsville.
