Biscuit & Bean

The biscuit sandwiches are very large and I don’t think they are easy to pick up. However, using a knife and fork to tackle was ok. The signature sandwich with the cheddar biscuit was tasty, especially the prosciutto with the sauce. While the flavor was okay, the biscuit itself was good but could have been more moist.

We originally were going to go to Whole Foods for breakfast, but when we arrived there wasn’t any hot breakfast. Searching around the Ballard area, we found this biscuit and coffee shop. There was construction out front of the restaurant but we didn’t mind having to walk a couple blocks on this fresh cool morning. The restaurant was decorated for Halloween, which was super cute and aesthetic. Nice small little shop, has room for a few tables and window bar seating. The biscuit flavors were displayed so we could be wowed by the size of them. We both ordered the signature, white cheddar, prosciutto, scrambled eggs, mixed greens and mama lill’s pepper aioli. I got mine on the Italian herb biscuit and my partner had his on the cheddar and green onion biscuit. We also ordered Two sides of the sausage gravy. Next time, one side of the gravy is enough for both of us. We also ordered a caramel latte and matcha latte with oat milk and honey. We didn’t have to wait long for our order. Our drinks were the perfect temperature and sweetness. The barista did a wonderful job. We took our sandwiches to the Ballard Locks to enjoy while we watched the ships . The biscuit sandwiches were amazing. The biscuit it self was flavorful, and soft , but it was hardy enough that it held the sandwich together. The aioli was the star that pulled all of the flavors of the prosciutto, egg, mixed greens and cheddar together with the biscuit. The gravy was thick, luscious, big chunks of sausage throughout. Spooned on top of each bite of the sandwich was perfect. What a great way to start a morning. Will definitely be coming back to try to the rest of the menu.

I stopped here on a whim and was excited to try a breakfast biscuit sandwich. The sandwich was huge for the price which was awesome, I was very full. My biscuit was dry which was a bummer but I can see how there’s potential! It had a nice cozy vibe and simple menu which I appreciate.

The space is small, so seating is best for 3 people max. I’m always here for the mushroom and leak vegetarian gravy, which I pair with the cheddar biscuit. However, the general specialty is the biscuit, which comes in three flavors (non-gluten free): buttermilk, cheddar chive, or a weekly special flavor. If you order a standalone biscuit, it comes with one jam/honey/aioli option, or you can purchase extras. My family prefers the honey butter or mixed berry jam. They also have a gluten free biscuit option, and some biscuit sandwiches. Parking is largely street parking, which is free on Sundays. For folks who want easier parking and don’t mind a drive north of Seattle, they also have a Lake Steven’s location.

I enjoyed a perfect and delicious Carmel breve - so good! The Signature was divinely satisfying. After reading the other reviews I ordered it with a side of gravy (50/50 mix) and enjoyed the diverse experiences. The staff was wonderful. All around a pleasing experience. I look forward to stopping in again when I am visiting in Seattle.

Biscuit and Bean: Breakfast Bliss in Ballard Biscuit and Bean, you sly little gem. Nestled in Ballard, this unassuming breakfast cafe has redefined my mornings. I wandered in one beautiful summer day in Seattle, the kind of sunny day we wait all year for, and there they were: Alex, Ben, and Emma. Together, they crafted what can only be described as the "Ezra-style" biscuit – a towering creation smothered in sausage gravy that made me wonder why I’d ever settled for anything less. The aroma hits you first – freshly baked biscuits with a hint of something savory in the air. It feels like walking into a warm embrace on a perfect day. Alex and Emma, working the counter, greeted me with genuine smiles that could cut through any Seattle fog. And then there was Ben. This guy is a DIY gastronomic genius extraordinaire, whipping up everything from hot sauce to pickled vegetables. His "Ezra-style" biscuit? A revelation. Picture the fluffiest biscuit, golden and buttery, drizzled with a gravy so perfectly seasoned it could make angels weep. Every bite was a reminder of how good life can be. If you’re in Ballard, do yourself a favor and stop by Biscuit and Bean. Ask for the "Ezra-style" biscuit. Trust me, you won’t regret it. This place isn’t just about breakfast; it’s about the kind of experience that makes you appreciate the little things. Biscuit and Bean – you’ve set a new standard. Hats off to Alex, Ben, and Emma. I’ll be back, eagerly awaiting whatever culinary magic you come up with next.

These biscuits are legit, more importantly, the sausage gravy is some of the best you’ll find in the PNW. Friendly staff always greet you with a smile. Easily a top breakfast spot in Ballard.

Moved here recently and haven’t been eating much breakfast but I stumbled across this place on the way to run an errand and the food was fireeee. I got the garden biscuit and it was so good. Biscuit was perfectly baked and the cheese spread on it was so good. Will definitely be back to try the others. Came on a Monday and there was still a 7-10 min wait time to order but everything else was really good.

When out walking the Ballard area, I ran into this amazing place. There are a few popular biscuit spots locally, but this place stands out. The customer service was great, the biscuits are top notch. The sweet biscuits are a must try, if not... the classic biscuit with the added honey butter won't disappoint. This location will see me again for coffeecanscbreakf

Loved their multiple and customizable options! You can pick biscuits and toppings in such a great way. The drinks were also really solid too. The bathroom is decorated in cryptid, which is awesome, and there's a little vending machine with dad jokes for a quarter lol. Friendly and helpful staff and absolutely plan to come back!

My favorite foodie news of the summer was definitely the reopening of Biscuit & Bean. Always worth a drive from, gasp "the Eastside", or even better, a side trip while already anywhere in Seattle. And YES!! B &B's biscuits are just as delicious and huge as they used to be. So of course I bought extra to take home. Yep, definitely still Seattle's best biscuit!! Welcome back Biscuit and Bean, so happy you returned

After being a loyal patron of Biscuit and Bean from their time on 15th/59th, I was thrilled to hear of their return. And I was not disappointed. These folks haven't missed a beat. The food here is nothing short of perfect and it was a privilege to eat it again. Plus, their new location is in the walkable heart of Ballard and feels much roomier. While they get up to speed they're only open a few days of the week until 2 pm, but this is well worth planning into your day. The biscuits are light and fluffy with gorgeous layers. The mushroom gravy is rich and savory, and I choose a spoon to get as much as possible into each bite. I opt to top mine with a runny egg and pickled jalapenos to complete this masterpiece. It lit up every taste bud I have.

Got the basic B with a side of pepper aioli (highly recommend). Honestly this was super filling and definitely is good in size. I'd say to add some spice by making the aioli chipotle or something else. The biscuits weren't dry but I usually like them a little more buttery, they were really great and not too crumby either! We thoroughly enjoyed this find

There's a bunch of people really excited about these biscuits, so maybe I just don't like biscuits? Partner liked his fine; I was disappointed. I had the Classic with a sausage patty, teen had biscuit and gravy, partner had the Signature. Pros: - the biscuit was warm and seemed fresh - the tea was loose leaf - the teen enjoyed his biscuit and gravy - Coffee was good (drip with cream) Neutrals: - not a lot of seating, but possible to snag a table - bit of a wait but cashier was also making drinks as part of taking orders, so that slowed things down, we also got there at a busy time - choice of 2 biscuits for most things - the biscuit was huge. For me this made the biscuit-to-toppings ratio unsatisfactory; for you it might be awesome. - very few fresh vegetable/fruit options on the menu; that's probably par for the course here. Cons: - the biscuit was DRY and not buttery or flaky - the sausage patty was dry - the egg was dry (there's a theme here!) - there was not enough cheese - there was no butter on the table to improve matters - the "tomato jam" was on the side in a plastic container, so I had to add it myself - this kindof wound up being a good thing, because it tasted like ketchup gone wrong. This was the only thing I actively disliked. - the presentation overall was pretty beige - partner's sandwich was supposed to come with greens and there were hardly any. - Side order of two bacon strips came in a plastic cup, and looked like it was one strip cut in two. In any case it was a tiny amount. - All components were a little underseasoned. Because my partner loves biscuits, and he thought these were a 4, I may go again. I might try the biscuit and gravy next time, or just get a biscuit and spread (though with the huge size of the biscuit I'm worried about the spread-to-biscuit ratio). I do not recommend getting the Classic. It's not classic. It's dry and boring.

The best biscuit and gravy I have ever had. No exaggerating here. I wish the biscuit I had was freshly baked but the gravy is to die for. So happy I got to try this place. Service was really amazing as well. They were nice and patient with all customers. Can't wait to have breakfast from here again.

So good! The bacon relish is a must. The biscuits were moist inside crisp outside and unbelievably yum with eggs and cheese. Wait time was pretty quick. Lines form all day. Portions are pretty generous, and juice is fresh.

Review from 10yo: Great food the biscuits are amazing I got the classic and it is a 10/10 also got the Arnold Palmer very refreshing but just a little sour still would go 10 times a week. Review from dad: Superb flavor. Perfect size sandwich. Vibes on point. Live, Laugh, Love!!!

Friendly staff and yummy food and tasty coffee! Excited to have them in the neighborhood!

Amazing food, friendly staff, and a fun vibe! I got the biscuit sandwich covered in gravy and it was one of the best biscuits I've had in a while! I love trying different biscuits and gravy so that is high praise. Pro tip: get the jalapeños to go on top for a little spice. I also got a mocha which was delish. Would highly recommend this place to anyone!

It doesn't matter why they left because they're back! Ben, the owner, was working in the kitchen, so we told him how we're so excited. I had The Signature on Cheddar Chive biscuit and Thai Tea. My friend had Biscuit and Gravy Split on Cheddar Chive Biscuit and Cardamom Latte. Everything tastes exactly the same....SO GOOD!!!! I'm excited to revisit the rest of the menu. Please don't ever leave again!!!
