B. Matthews Eatery serves up classic and inventive American dishes in a cozy vintage space, where the shrimp and grits and brunch cocktails steal the show.
"Bay Street staple B. Matthews Eatery caters to the early birds, opening at 8 a.m.. Shrimp and grits, French toast, omelets, avocado toasts, and bloody marys abound alongside heavier favorites like shrimp and grits, french toast, and fried green tomato crab cake benedict." - Kiki Dy
"B. Matthews Eatery has all the hallmarks of a modern bistro, with exposed brick walls, dark wood, and striking modern art. The shrimp and grits are the real draw here; they're served with green onions, tasso ham, and red-eye gravy. The fried green tomato Benedict is also another welcome deviation from the classics, with the mixed greens and goat cheese on a homemade biscuit delivering a tangy bite. There are regular egg dishes, of course, but among the other standouts are the indulgent salmon avocado toast and the chicken salad sandwich with apples and pecans." - Paul Oswell
"Elevated eatery The vibe Busy bistro The crowd Bright eyed and buttoned-up The drinks Build your own Bloody Marys The food Grits are the hit" - Paul Oswell
