Waysider Menu

Waysider, nestled in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, is a beloved American breakfast spot that captures the essence of traditional Southern cooking. Their menu shines brightest with comfort classics like buttery homemade biscuits smothered in rich, savory gravy, and fluffy pancakes served alongside perfectly crisp sausage links or bacon. The standout dishes—country ham paired with red eye gravy, creamy grits paired with eggs cooked just right, and the veggie omelette—are a testament to genuine, hearty flavors that evoke nostalgia. Each bite tells a story of old-fashioned recipes, crafted with care and authenticity. The fried potato skins, described as the ideal breakfast appetizer, add an unexpected crispy delight. Coupled with a strong cup of "Cuppa Joe," Waysider's offerings are satisfying yet unpretentious. What grabbed me most was the warm atmosphere and the genuine charm that customers rave about, making it more than a meal, but a comforting experience deserving of repeated visits.
