Treating people like family with breakfast

When you love breakfast and people, you have a recipe for success. Cumberland Biscuit company opened in 2017 at 114 West Main Street after the closing of long-standing Main Street Bakery. With 114 West Main Street already being set up as a restaurant, the owners of TOPZ Treats Yogurt & Metro Deli jumped at the opportunity to open another restaurant downtown. Owners Matt and Anna Sands along with Anna’s brother, Josh Baker, recognized a need for an upscale breakfast eatery in the downtown area.

This recognition was natural as Josh and Anna both love breakfast. Josh and Matt put a new spin on the inside of the restaurant, refurbishing wood from upstairs in the building and creating a unique space for guests to enjoy their experience. Cumberland Biscuit Company opened on May 16, 2017 with a vast array of specialty items like eggs benedict, chocolate gravy, and chicken & waffles. In the beginning they only served breakfast, but soon branched out to dinner on Friday and Saturday nights. Dinner items include shrimp & grits, Voodoo Pasta, and signature burgers to name a few. You are welcome to have a seat at the bar top facing the Park Theatre to watch the action on Main Street or at a table in the back to sip your coffee out of their signature coffee mugs.

Their hours of operation are Thursday-Sunday from 7:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. and Friday and Saturday evenings for dinner from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Matt and Anna believe that taking care of your team and building them up as individuals makes for a great company and their employees become like family to them. Matt was a youth minister for over 20 years, so his family’s love of service and community spill over into their businesses. They enjoy seeing people happy, providing a good service, and a great environment. Matt said that “if you have great service, treat people like family, and give them a great experience, then they’ll take care of you.”
