We’re a casual dining restaurant along Interstate 20/59 in Cottondale, Alabama, just 15 minutes from Downtown Tuscaloosa. Owner Melvin Cannon was born and raised in Tuscaloosa, AL. He is a former chef at Cypress Inn and Dietary Manager for Heritage Healthcare & Rehabilitation. He’s always had a passion for food and dreamt of having a restaurant he could call his own in the Cottondale area where he and his family reside. He’s also the creator of the infamous Ms. Cynthia’s Peach Cobbler, which is dedicated to his mother who passed away just a year ago. If you haven’t tried 20/59 what are you waiting for? Come on by!
