What People Are Saying
from Google"Stopped by for breakfast and coffee this morning. I had scrambled eggs with cheese, crispy bacon, biscuit with sausage gravy, grits, and coffee. ☕️ My total came to $19 and some change. The food was great. These are some of the best grits I’ve had other than my own. The bacon was nice and crispy just like I requested. Three cups of coffee later and I finished my meal. The waitress was very friendly. We discussed the weather and mums. Nice little spot that definitely has that old timey diner feel. Vintage I’d say. I couldn’t afford to eat here often, but it’s great for an occasional splurge."
"Really solid spot. The poached eggs were perfect, and the shrimp and grits were a standout — great sauce, tons of flavor. The menu has a lot of Southern classics done right, but it still feels elevated. Easy place to come with friends, parents, or for a nicer brunch without it feeling stuffy."
"Visiting Oxford from out of town, we stumbled upon Big Bad Breakfast on North Lamar and what a find! From the moment we walked in, Bella greeted us warmly with a beautiful smile and eyes that pierced any out towner’s hungry belly 😂, there was a small little wait but what a savvy veteran move by us looking for a great spot to eat at and accepting nothing less than that 🙌 Dayna gave service that made us feel right at home with Lauren the manager and her great personally frequent our table. Even the kitchen manager, Mr. Bryan Sapp, came by to say hello. Talk about Southern hospitality. The food was every bit as memorable as the service. I enjoyed a burrito packed with flavor, while my friends devoured the chili cheese omelette and the Big Bad Breakfast platter. Drinks (Dr Pepper, cold brew, and coffee) were spot on. And to top it all off, Miss Lauren treated us to the biscuit cinnamon balls on the house — a sweet, unforgettable gesture that sealed the deal. For travelers looking for an authentic, welcoming, and downright delicious breakfast in Oxford, this is the spot. Five stars all the way — worth the trip, and we’ll be back next time we’re in town!"
"Very unique and cozy place for breakfast or lunch. I finally got to try it out this past weekend and loved it! I got a customized omelette that included country ham, cheese, sautéed onions, chopped tomatoes, and bell peppers. It was very delicious and I highly recommend if you’re ever in Oxford."
"Very nice meal! Stopped for breakfast 11/30/25. It has a diner feel. We got the chicken and waffles and the cathead biscuit with sausage gravy. Both were amazing! Come check it out!!"
