A wonderful bread & bakery shop in a rustic simplistically decorated location right across from the VA Hospital. Everything was fresh, delicious and the coffee was strong. The pricing was also very reasonable. Will be back!

Very neat place with decent prices, sufficient seating, and a little wait. They were out of the salmon for the smoked salmon toast, unfortunately. All the pastries looked so delicious, and everyone at the office loved the sticky buns for our sweets social. Will return and update review another time. UPDATE: smoked salmon toast was available this morning, and it was literally what I was craving today. It was DELICIOUS!! Two yummy slices of BB bread and cream cheese together 💙 and the Nutella danish and cheese Danish with fruit were excellent. I'll be back!

The smells in here!! 💯 great place to stop in for coffee, a little lunch, or the best fresh bread in town. Lots of seating, cool interior vibe.

Delicious bread, tasty sandwiches and really nice staff. We stopped by here as I was dropping off my husband on the airport, but we had an hour to grab a quick lunch. The food was great, and the bread of course was excellent. The place had a cool and chill atmosphere, I think I'll come back more often in the future, especially if I'm just driving to Birmingham for an airport run!

This is now my post appointment treat anytime I have to come down to the VA for anything. Right across the street, relaxed atmosphere, good food and coffee, self serve water...perfect for an introvert like me.

Birmingham Breadworks is a delightful bakery and café that has quickly become a favorite spot in the city. The bread is exceptional, with perfectly crusty sourdough, soft, flavorful baguettes, and hearty loaves that clearly reflect the care and craftsmanship behind each batch. Their pastries are equally impressive — flaky croissants, cinnamon rolls, and danishes that strike the perfect balance of sweetness and texture.

Tried this place for the first time. Ham and cheese croissant was HUGE. It was also super flaky and fluffy. Delicious. The chain latte was good as well. Can't wait to go back and try other things.

Where do I start?! Honestly I didn’t have high expectations when I arrived here. It seemed more like a neighborhood spot that people frequented not particularly because it was good but because it was spacious, available, and easy to get to. Well I was wrong. While insider is spacious and cozy they are absolutely worth the visit for both locals and outsiders. I arrived early in the morning and the case was fully stocked and the cashier was very friendly and helpful. He answered all my questions, even obvious ones, and never seemed disgruntled or bothered. I ordered two cookies, the bacon egg and cheese sour dough breakfast “focaccia “ , and a coffee. Coffee was just what I needed to start my morning. Fresh, hot, and soothing. Then the pastries. I got the oatmeal raisin cookie and the pumpkin cheesecake. Both were out of this world. Soft, chewy inside, slight crunch to the edge, and full of flavor. Probably 2 of the best cookies I’ve had. The bacon egg and cheese sour dough was warm which was nice, well seasoned, perfect bready chew while being airy. It was an all around winner for me. I actually went back later that day for seconds but only got a cookie as they were low on offerings right before closing. Again this place is well worth a visit. Nothing in the case is the wrong choice and while this isn’t some modern, sleek, 2025 looking bakery they invest the time and effort in to making every single offering tasty and worth your money. I can’t wait to go back to Birmingham if only for this bakery.

The coffee sign caught my eye on a cool rainy day. I am VERY THANKFUL that it did. Dusty was so chipper and friendly with a wonderful warm and contagious smile. Hands down best customer service EVER! The food was the best I’ve had in a long time. 100% recommend!
