Morrison's Cafeteria was founded by J. A. Morrison in Mobile, Mobile County, in 1920. The company expanded to include more than 150 restaurants at its peak but entering the 1990s, a cultural shift toward casual dining resulted in the restructuring of the company and the discontinuation of the Morrison's name. Only the Mobile restaurant remains.
