Cuppa Grace Cafe and Coffee Shop — Restaurant in Sylacauga

This will sound more negative than i intend, but the review is intended to manage expectations, especially for those from outside the area.

The good: the place is crazy cute and the outdoor sitting area is full of charm and a great place to read, chat, or do work. The have some vegetarian and vegan options, which is hard to come by in this part of the country.

I've been here a few times and the service has ranged from great (younger girl) to average (middle aged women) to tolerable (I think she was the owner).

The bad: this is largely a matter of perspective and what you're used to, however, most of my issues are what you'd expect from rural Alabama. Everything is single serve. My meal was served on a Styrofoam plate, with a plastic spoon, wrapped in plastic. The coffee, even when not to go, was offered in a Styrofoam cup. The avocado toast is wrote possibly the first time I've had that kind of white bread since the 80s (the toast was good though). The hash browns are just pre-made frozen patties. Things such as that.

Obviously, the locals love it, and I understand why, but if you're passing through or heading to some of the lovely trails in the area, it's good to know...

Cuppa Grace Cafe was our third TRY to find a Cappuccino in Sylacauga, Al. We were desperate at this point in time. Driving from Columbiana, looking for Cappuccino in Sylacauga. Well, you know how it is. The one thing that is unavailable is the one thing that you have to have. Cuppa Grace cafe is in town and no trouble in finding the cafe. Greeted as we entered the store. Store and atmosphere seems friendly. The owner waited on us and she answered our questions about her shop. My cappuccino had .....,....and caramel. Mardy had a vanilla cappuccino. We both enjoyed our drinks and conversation. Third time was CHARM for us on our quest for...

Best coffee I've ever had! And I'm huge critic of coffee. My morning doesn't start until I make or find coffee. Never go without it. Was in town for a softball tournament. Had to drive about 10 minutes the opposite way of the fields to get here and I did it everyday for 4 days straight. I got the iced vanilla latte. It was so good I ordered 2 every morning to take to the fields with me! Such a cute place. If it was closer to where I lived I'd make the drive. Thank you for being my saving grace when I was in a town...
