Tracy's Cafeteria is a meat-and-three restaurant located at 75 Church Street in Crestline Village.
The restaurant is the second and the only surviving location of a business which Bill and Jimmy Tracy first opened in 1983 as a hot-dog stand on Southside near UAB's campus.
The cafeteria occupied a small green granite-faced space on the ground floor of the Town House Apartments at the northeast corner of 20th Street and University Boulevard.
Tracy's southside location served fresh-made lunch specials as well as cook-to-order breakfasts. A second Crestline location, opened in June 2007, serves three meals.
The company also operates a catering business and offers pre-made meals, sides and casseroles through its Crestline restaurant and at Piggly Wiggly stores in Homewood, Crestline and Clairmont Avenue and Western Supermarket in Mountain Brook.
Tracy closed the Southside restaurant without explanation in September 2008. Charlotte Hatcher started as a cook and waitress and rose to manage the Southside restaurant and greet customers for most of its existence before transferring to Crestline when it closed.
