My gosh what a great place! Every time I've had something from here, it's been so different and new, but EVERYTHING is consistently tasty! And the staff are always friendly and bubbly which makes coming here such a pleasant experience. Not to mention the fact that the place is SO clean and organized. Side note: this is the only place I've had pizza buns from that weren't dry or lacking ingredients. They are so moist and full of pepperoni, sauce, and seasoning. I highly recommend them!!

The items I've tried from momma B's does not dissapoint. Everything is fresh and delicious!! I tried the Philly sandwhich.. It might have been called something else...it was amazing ( I always check to see when they will make it again) I stopped in and had the chilli and corn bread., also got the biscuit. It was probably the best biscuit I ever had. The chili was a explosion of flavor! The corn bread paired well with the chillie and if I had room I would of got another piece. Thank you everyone at momma B's second helping!!

Every time I'm in town, I make it a point to eat here at least once. The ever-changing daily menu keeps things exciting—I always check their Instagram to see what's on for the week. I really appreciate this rotating menu style; it ensures everything is made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. And honestly, the carrot cake alone makes the visit worth it!

Catered our meetings for two days and the food was amazing. But what was even more amazing, are the muffins. The cranberry muffins and the strawberry rhubarb were the best I have ever had. Regret not buying all of them to take home with me!! Thank you for the amazing food and service!

This company provided us coffee, muffins and lunches for a 2-day conference this week. Everything they served was extremely fresh and tasted great - great homestyle soups, salads and sandwiches. The muffins were exceptional each day too - lots of variety to choose from. The owner and co-worker were very pleasant. Recommend highly for group events!
