A rapidly growing breakfast restaurant franchise has announced another Birmingham suburban location.

Big Bad Breakfast— the made-from-scratch breakfast concept from James Beard Award-winning Oxford, Miss., chef John Currence has inked a deal for its eighth Alabama restaurant at Parkside at Dolly Ridge.

The restaurant, at 4317 Dolly Ridge Road, will occupy the former Biscuit Love space at the center, with more than 3,000 square feet of space.

Harbert Retail’s Casey Howard and Thomas Hickman represented the landlord of Parkside at Dolly Ridge in the deal.

It will be Big Bad Breakfast’s fourth location in the Birmingham metro area, and comes just a few weeks after the opening of a location at 1467 Montgomery Highway.

Currence said loves the Cahaba Heights area.

“Watching the thoughtful and measured development in the last five years has been an inspiration and we could not be luckier to have found a little spot on Dolly Ridge to set up our fourth Birmingham location.

“The city has been so good to us for the past decade, it is hard for me to fully express. We just could not be happier to find another wonderful spot in the Magic City to plant a BBB seed,” Currence said.

Currence opened the first Birmingham-area Big Bad Breakfast on U.S. 280 in 2014 and the second in Homewood four years later.

Elsewhere around Alabama, the restaurant also has locations in Florence, Madison, Mobile and Tuscaloosa.

Since opening the original Big Bad Breakfast in Oxford in 2008, Currence has grown the breakfast brand’s footprint to include locations throughout the South, including Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.

Parkside at Dolly Ridge is a 14,935-square-foot, two-level, mixed-use development near Cahaba Heights Elementary and the new Cahaba Heights Athletic Fields.
