In a world of fast food restaurants at every turn, it is nice to find a gem like Brierfield Cafe. Located just outside of Wilton, on Highway 139, Brierfield Cafe is housed in a small simple building, nestled in a stand of trees. If you are not looking, you might drive right by it. If there is a wait for a table, which one should probably plan on, you can sit in southern charm and comfort on the front porch's rocking chairs. Inside there is one room with booths and tables, giving a homey and enticing atmosphere. When you are here to eat, you will probably run into your neighbors, fellow church goers, and possibly even family. Brierfield Cafe has food for everyone!

This little restaurant is a great place for some down home cooking. Not only does the menu offer a variety of sandwiches, salads, and plates but the weekly specials are the best around. You cannot beat their meat and two for lunch Wednesday through Friday. On Wednesdays either chicken and dumplings or chicken and dressing is served; Thursday customers find either beef tips and rice or cubed steak and gravy; Friday is fish day and steak is available Friday and Saturday. Along with these great entree's, the cafe offers a range of vegetables, bought weekly from the Alabama Farmer's Market, located in Birmingham on Finley Avenue. Brierfield Cafe offers people a chance to go out to eat and still feel like they are getting as a nutritious a meal as they would cook in their own kitchen. The restaurant offers a list of seasonal fresh vegetables, including a southern delicacy: Fried Green Tomatoes.

Brierfield Cafe opened in 1996 as a barbecue grill out front of the current building. Joann Blackwell and her sister-in-law, Joann can both be found in the kitchen to this day, cooking up the best food found in the Brierfield area. Each of them realize how important it is to offer a good hearty meal made not only from fresh local ingredients but also from the heart.
