Sweet Mama's

Wow!! How have I overlooked this place! So good! Those Pork Pops are out of this world! Think sausage balls but in a light airy biscuit mix. These are definitely not your Paula Dean sausage balls. These are heavenly bites. And one word of advice- don’t eat one on the way home or they will all disappear- especially if they are hot out of the oven. And Grace behind the counter was super friendly and helpful with all my questions. Everything is fresh and homemade. From muffins to amazing looking sweet rolls. Highly recommend you put this on your top list for Saint Simons. Yum!

Food is great. But everyone on this island does not get lunch at noon. I have gone there 3 times just after 1 and was told kitchen is closed. It was a COLD sandwich but they would not make. I will NEVER go back. Your ad states closed at 2pm. Hummmmm????

As a highly rated breakfast & bakery spot in a touristy place, I expected a more welcoming environment. It was almost a stale attitude, which I found so uninviting first thing in the morning! I also found it odd that I had to give my order twice, usually we order a bunch of stuff and as soon as it’s out of my mouth it’s forgotten. I went for the bakery since we love pastries and donuts, the donuts were really dense and while my 1 year old devoured it I wouldn’t eat them. The muffins were giant and soft and enjoyed. The cheese danishes were okay, I should have tried it warmed up like one of the reviews said. Lastly, the cinnamon rolls were not soft but not rock hard and overall it was a meh experience.

Sweet Mama’s Bakery is a great breakfast spot. Order from a tantalizing display case of baked goods which includes the best cinnamon roll that we have found on the island, also delicious fruit turnovers. If you know, you can order bacon which comes in a generous portion. While it may be missed by some visitors, the locals know it well, as the friendly cashier recognized most by name. We always visit when we are on the island, often more than once.

Sweet Mamas in Saint Simons is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and outstanding service. The highlight of our visit had to be their pork pops—perfectly seasoned and delicious. They were packed with flavor. The rest of the menu was just as impressive, offering a variety of fresh and flavorful options. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for both family meals and casual gatherings. If you’re ever in Saint Simons, Sweet Mamas is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back for more pork pops and to explore the rest of their incredible menu!
