“I really like all their cookies but the chocolate chip is a classic and can never get old. I love the fact that they add salt to it which makes it unique. It’s just the right amount of sweetness and flavor. Thank you crumble! :)”

“This place is a hidden gem in Pleasant Grove. 15-20 minutes from Birmingham and with the drive. The owner is so friendly and welcoming. The food is very fresh and delicious, you can tell there's a lot of love put into it. There are American choices for the less adventurous eaters and children's menu, also vegetarian options! My personal favorites are the falafel plate, Greek salad, tahini sauce, hummus and baklava. All homemade! Go try it, you won't be disappointed!”

“Clean. Good. Unexpected. Cheap. Not always super fast, but it's always made to order. In an industrial area with few choices, they stand out above the regular fast food spots.”

“I absolutely love this place. I remember a couple years ago my siblings forgot what flavor snow cone I wanted so they got me frog in a blender now I get it every time who knew forgetfulness could be delicious. It's not just the snow cones it's also the food. Their pretzels, funnel cakes, and nachos are the only food I've had from there but I loved all of them. I always ask my mom if we can get sno daze after school. The only problem is it takes kinda long sometimes but personally I say it's worth the wait. Yummyyyyy”

“I ordered to of the #6 specials which was burgers, my two loved it. The burgers was homemade and nice size. It was worth it. I ordered a sampler for myself which was 2 ribs with bone, chopped BBQ, and 1/4 chicken which was the breast and wing, with Mac n cheese, and Baked beans.
Now my ribs was kinda on the dry side, the chopped BBQ was about the same, so I skipped out on trying the chicken. The Mac n cheese was a disappointment, just broke my little heart!. The bake beans was ok.
I can't say I won't visit anymore, but I will not be going out my way to go there.”

“Menu variety, staff service. We stopped by on our way to Tuscaloosa and we’re delighted by the helpfulness of the owner, the food quality, and the wide array of choices. The interior is pleasant and warm, and if we hadn’t been on the road I could see having a lovely book club meeting or a quick lunch for 2 here. Great ambiance, great service. Also such a unique and local food option vs rushing through a fast food drive-thru. We have family in the area and will absolutely be returning!”

“Love this place! The drinks are all sugar free, super tasty, and made with healthy ingredients. They’ve got a ton of flavor options so there’s always something new to try. What makes it even better is the family that runs it — they’re so kind, welcoming, and really genuine about their faith. You can tell they care about people, not just business. Always leave here feeling refreshed and encouraged!”

“The service here is amazing! I recently ordered the chicken hibachi with extra veggies and yum yum sauce to go. I didn’t check the food before I left and when I got home they gave me extra noodles instead of veggies. I messaged them on Facebook to let them know of the mistake and they offered to remake my order for free at my convenience! I went and picked up the remade order a week later and they even gave me the extra yum yum sauce and apologized again when I picked up the food. Great customer service and the food is amazing 🤤 Will definitely be back with family and friends!”

“I hate I didn’t take a picture… but I got a cheeseburger combo with Cajun ranch fries… the burger was seasoned so good and had that “straight from my house” taste and the Cajun fries didn’t make it past the parking lot!!! Everything was good and I will definitely be back!!!”

“There are some restaurants you eat at once and enjoy, and then there are places like WT’s that feel like they’re stitched into the fabric of the community. After 39 years of being open, this place isn’t just a restaurant—it’s an icon in Bessemer. Honestly, it deserves to be considered a historic landmark.
We came in and had the bologna sandwich and the shrimp salad, and both were absolutely outstanding. The bologna sandwich was piled high, grilled just right, and hit every nostalgic note you could hope for. The shrimp salad was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. On top of that, the soup of the day was rich and comforting—true scratch-made goodness that you don’t find just anywhere. Even the sweet tea, served in a mason jar, felt right at home here.
But WT’s isn’t just about the food. It’s about the people. Meeting Wanda and Patti was an absolute highlight—they welcomed us like family, and that warmth is exactly why so many people keep coming back year after year. Reading through other reviews, you can see the same story repeated over and over: great food, great service, and the kind of Southern hospitality that makes you feel like you belong.
The atmosphere is cozy and unpretentious—nothing fancy, just real and genuine. You can feel the history in the place, and it’s clear how much love and effort has gone into keeping it thriving for nearly four decades.
If you’re anywhere near Bessemer, you owe it to yourself to stop here. Whether it’s for a quick lunch, a hearty dinner, or just to soak up the atmosphere of a true local gem, WT’s delivers. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why independent restaurants matter so much—because they’re built on tradition, pride, and community.
WT’s is more than a meal—it’s an experience, and one you won’t forget”

“The food is good. But, they add a 5% surcharge to your ticket automatically. I think it need to be added at check-out.”
