Grandmother's House

Grandmother's House is a restaurant in Owens Cross Roads, just southeast of Huntsville. Its website says the place was opened to give guests a relaxed meal where they can slow down and stay awhile, and it describes itself as not a fast food restaurant. The kitchen serves made-from-scratch lunches, sandwiches and homemade desserts. The menu changes daily, and the site highlights catfish, chicken, chicken tenders and pork chops, plus a plate lunch on set days and a special Sunday lunch menu. Breakfast is served on Saturday mornings. The site has a history page that traces the property back to the early 1800s and says a log house there is on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage. Large groups can call ahead to reserve a table.
