B. Matthews Eatery sits on E Bay Street in Savannah's North Historic District, a cozy room that's built a reputation as one of downtown's go-to breakfast and brunch spots. The Fried Green Tomato & Crab Cake Benny stands out as a signature order, alongside biscuits smothered in sausage gravy, the Bay Street Scramble, challah French toast, and shrimp and grits.
A well-regarded Bloody Mary and bar seating round out the morning crowd, while the kitchen also opens later in the day for dinner, with dishes like salmon, Caesar salad, and mac and cheese showing up on that side of the menu.
Regulars keep coming back — some multiple times in a single week — though service quality draws mixed reviews even from those who return for the food.
