Biscuit Head

For dine in, order at the counter and find your own table. There was a short line when we arrived but it moved quickly. (We drove by the location closer to downtown and that line was out-the-door, down-the-sidewalk!) Our food and drinks came quickly and it was all delicious. Large servings! My only complaints: The floor was pretty messy/wet and one restroom was out-of-service.

It was a really cute place and great food. Definitely tight parking. Biscuit french toast with fresh fruit. Yum!

Really good biscuits and the BBQ biscuit breakfast was huge. The coffee is also top grade with coffee shop type options. As someone else said a bit pricey for breakfast, but you get good-sized portions and great quality food.

Delicious coffee and delicious food. this is a counter service restaurant meeting. You are not served at the table however, they do bring the food to your table. they give out free stickers and have a jam bar. lots of dietary restriction accommodations. The Nutella banana biscuit was one of the greatest things I’ve ever eaten. very delicious coffee. Very nice staff. very clean restaurant, but the jam and condiment bar is a little nasty during busy hours. Definitely 10 out of 10 would eat again.

First experience at a Biscuit Head for me. Car park was almost full which I took as a good sign. Cashier was friendly as were the rest of the staff. Played it safe by just chosing the half breakfast biscuit with coffee. Coffee was good though the food wasn't anything out of the ordinary for the price. Pleasant environment but an average dining experience.

The cat head biscuits are insane! I got the biscuit sandwich with fried chicken and sausage gravy on the side, and a pitcher of mimosas. I love everything about it! The food was served quickly. The jam bar was interesting and full of delicious jams and unique butters. The coffee is great! They have about 7 different types of gravy. Many side items which allows you to get very creative with your dish. My kids loved the restaurant itself, cats painted on the windows outside, animal prints on the floors to follow. They ordered easily a biscuit with eggs and bacon. I was very impressed ultimately and we will definitely be going back. I have many more items to try.

Good brunch place if you are a biscuit lover. The atmosphere is nice and their love for cats 🐱 is shown in abundance. Not a fan of sweet stuff but if u love jams the u got to try this place as they have a jam bar like a salsa bar. The service is fast. Had lunch with bunch of office guys and a manager from Brazil approved their espresso ☕️

So sad! It has gone down hill. Granted, this is only my second time dining here. We live 800 miles away and the first time eating here was 10 years ago— it was amazing! I have been recommending it to friends traveling to Asheville for the last 10 years. Now, I’ll stop. -Who wants to eat room temperature biscuits? -Fried green tomato was room temperature and tough. I couldn’t cut through with a knife. - I sat and watched how confused everyone is on how to order and enter. -Prompted for a tip multiple times at checkout, I’m not sure why, they just deliver food. -Ham was so salty and chewy. -Gravy wasn’t hot -Grits weren’t hot Honestly it all tasted like we ordered it to go and then waited until we got home an hour away to eat it. It’s really too bad— it used to be SO good. We were raving fans…. Not today.

Amazing food and friendly atmosphere. Nice little place with pizazz. Really enjoyed the experience and friendly staff!

After eating here for breakfast - the biscuits are huge * pork sausage gravy was spicy - took back for a plain gravy - which was a lot better - can't say I was impressed w the food - I really liked the set up - very nice dining area - that's where the stars are coming from - thanks again

Fun place for breakfast in Arden. Service was swift and efficient. The biscuits are wonderful. A definite stop in Asheville area for breakfast or brunch.

Very nice staff. The biscuit could have been warmer to melt the butter but the gravy was so good and had a little bit of a kick. Casual laid back brunch spot with fun attentive staff who always were cleaning everything. Great find, plus free stickers!

I came here a long time ago when visiting the area and thought what I got was just ok but tried the biscuit and sausage gravy with a side of pulled pork and thought both were excellent. I have noticed other places in this area often skimp on the sausage in the gravy so I often order an extra sausage on the side but definitely not necessary here as they crumbled up at least 1 whole sausage just for my meal. Excellent, large fluffy biscuits, only finished 1 1/3. The pulled pork was very tender and flavorful. The small tables don't have a napkin dispenser and they don't bring any with your food so you need to grab from a larger table.

This place is great! The food was amazing. I got the filthy animal biscuit which is a biscuit covered in gravy, and under the biscuit is bacon, eggs, pimento cheese,and fried chicken. The service was great very friendly, and the place has a very Asheville, southern vibe to it. Recommend it to everyone!!

Came here for breakfast with friends and found some of the stuff we really liked and others were surprisingly bad. All in all am rating it that I like it because of the good stuff but I will tell you what I recommend you avoid and why. To be fair I'll add we were here on the Monday of a holiday weekend so I don't know if that caused anomalies or not. I ordered a 1/2 breakfast with scrambled eggs and country ham. It comes with a large biscuit and free run of the jelly bar. I also had an iced oat milk latte. Hubby ordered the Filthy Animal with pork sausage gravy and the house coffee. The biscuits and jam are the way to go here - delicious buttermilk biscuits and every jam I sampled was a winner, my favorite being the sour Cherry. The scrambled eggs and my iced latte were good too. The ham, well, it was frankly inedible. It was so incredibly salty compared to most other ham and certainly what I usually get called "country ham" which I am used to being more like a ham steak. This was thin sliced incredibly salty and slightly rancid ham. I ate two bites just to make sure I wasn't imagining how bad the first one was end then left the rest on my plate. I usually love ham, but this was just bad. Hubby liked most of his meal except the fried chicken in the biscuit. He didn't eat more than a bite of that either. And that man LOVES fried chicken. Did they have a meat freezer mishap? No idea. Neither of our friends had meat in their breakfast and I suspect that's why they are so fond of the place, if you stick to the biscuits, jam, fresh fruit you're going to be fine. I don't know if the meats are always so bad here but I probably won't risk trying again to find out - I absolutely would come back for the biscuits and jam though.

Food Poisoning!!! I ordered an item called Filthy Animal. Very aptly named. Diarrhea. Cramps. Headache.

Can't go wrong with Biscuit Head. The Asheville Benedict is my go to, but really I've just shown up and ordered biscuits before to have some jam with--there are so many good options. Parking lot is kind of rough but it's worth it.

This is the third Biscuit Head we have been to in Asheville and I think my favorite. The parking is a bit of a challenge but there is other places like street parking if you can't find anything in the lot in front. If you have not been to a Biscuit Head you can't get seating until you order and get a number. This is fine because you can find seating and like other locations it has some outdoor seating as well. I choose what I usually get which is the Filthy Animal, a fresh biscuit with egg, a fried chicken strip and bacon slices. This was covered in a shiitake gravy, a personal favorite gravy but they have other choices. They have a couple of different locally sourced coffees as well that are not grown here of course but roasted. The service is typically good but I thought they were even friendlier than the other locations as well. If you are are in Asheville then Biscuit Head is a must stop for breakfast.

Ahhhh biscuit head.... Always consistent, never disappoints. Got my usual fried green tomato biscuit, it's one of the best things in the world. My husband always gets the filthy animal, and licks the plate clean. This is our third biscuit Head I think, a new location we haven't tried before. The restaurant is better than the others we've been to for seating and for room, so this is probably our favorite location. You can't come to Asheville and not come here.

I really wanted a biscuit with my breakfast and boy did this place have some good biscuits. They had a bar with all different jams and toppings you can pick from. I was very disappointed with my scrambled eggs as they were too well done for me (more like a burnt omelette). I'm glad somebody told me about this location as there was more parking and it was not as crowded as the location downtown.

Loved the huge biscuits and the egg, bacon and fried chicken biscuit was my go-to for lunch. Will definitely be back when we return.

Great menu selections, delicious breakfast spot! Love the fried bologna and jelly bar!

We came in about 30 minutes before closing & did not feel rushed at all, in fact, the cashier was super helpful with my questions. We ended up getting biscuits with veggie gravy, & I ordered a gluten-free sandwich. Their seating options are plenty and not too frantic. Our food came out quickly! It was warm & looked + smelled SO delicious. As for their gluten-free biscuits. I was so so happy to eat a biscuit & was okay with ignoring the fact that it was pretty dry & super crumby... HOWEVER, knowing they are vegan + gluten-free, I cannot complain. I loved their jam bar, you could tell which ones were the favorites because most of them were out, but I can't complain, came in fairly close to closing. All the employees seem to feel like they're part of a team & are working together, which is so nice to see. I also really appreciated the cat theme throughout! Can't wait to be back for more gluten-free biscuits

I was again visiting my son & his wife near Asheville. The food scene in this town never disappoints. We went to Biscuit Head for a true southern experience. The place was packed, & as I glanced at the food plates on the tables near me, I'm pretty sure I drooled. I ordered the Fried Green Tomato biscuit. A plate with several pounds of food arrived, lol. It contained a large biscuit, fried green tomatoes, a smoky hollandaise sauce, two poached eggs, tomatoes, & Brie cheese. What an incredible flavor combo. The food stuck to my ribs all day. The restaurant also has a jam bar where you can try many flavored jams on the biscuits as well. I'm now a fan of this place, so I think that makes me an honorary biscuit head.

An iconic Asheville breakfast spot! Their biscuits are top tier and the jam bar is amazing. The bacon is 10/10 and I love that they have mugs for their coffee. I will stop at biscuit head any time I am in Asheville, you cannot go wrong!!

First, I just want to start by saying Biscuit Head is 5/5 on flavor. I had to bump to 3 stars because I got glutened here. My husband ordered the gluten free vegan biscuit. I thought it looked better than usual and when I tried it I thought it tasted different (in a much better way) than when I'd had it before. Thankfully, I only took two bites. The next day we all went in together to sit for breakfast. My husband and I got the half breakfast plate with gluten free/vegan biscuits and our friend got the mimosa biscuit. Immediately, I noticed how different our biscuits looked from his and how my husband's gluten free biscuit from the day before looked nothing like what we now had and looked exactly like our friend's gluten biscuit. While I realize, biscuit head is not made for celiacs--it is a very big deal To give a customer who orders gluten free a regular gluten biscuit. With that being said, biscuit heads' biscuits are amazing (both the gluten free/vegan and the regular). Our friend loved his mimosa chicken biscuit and we ate here multiple times during our stay. I would still recommend them but be very cautious and double check if you are gluten free.

The food is good. The server did not bring our drinks with our food and we kept asking for them. The line took 35 minutes to order and yet they have a sign that says you can't sit down without a number on your table. Very bad customer service.

Biscuithead is a neat place to try. The vibe is definitely trendy/hipster. The place was hopping today, very little seating left when we arrived at 9:40. The staff were friendly and helpful. I had the Filthy Animal with Sausage Gravy and my wife had the Biscuit and gravy with Sausage gravy and a side of bacon, both with gluten free biscuits. I thought the Filthy Animal was pretty good. The bacon, fried chicken, egg, and cheese on my biscuit were pretty good. We weren't blown away by the gravy. That's kind of a staple and it was a little strange to our taste. Also, the vegan/gluten free biscuit wasn't great. We've experimented with a lot of gluten free biscuit recipes at home and the ones we had here weren't much better than our home attempts. Overall: great service and friendly wait staff, good brewed coffee, but I don't know that I would pay what I paid today for what I got. Not sure if we'll be back.

Came with a few friends on a holiday morning and while the restaurant was packed there was thankfully no line. I ordered the mimosa fried chicken biscuit sandwich - the chicken was delicious and I liked the sweetness of the jam on the biscuit. I actually would've loved more of that jam. We also shared the Nutella Elvis biscuit, which has bacon, bananas, and biscuits, but I thought it was too heavy for a breakfast item.

This is a great place for a casual breakfast. Outdoor seating under a covered patio makes it perfect for seating "al fresco"! I have tried many of their speciality items all good, but landed on a more traditional breakfast, but that is a me thing. It does have kid friendly items that make it great with these more eclectic places all over Asheville (my daughter says she gives it 10/10!). I prefer this location just due to parking as the location on Haywood is super busy most days. However, both are great and lack nothing. Don't forget to hit up the jam bar to sample the house made jams.

Three differ people recommended coming here while visiting and their recommendations lived up to the hype. Easy to order! Here are the food items we tried: Chicken biscuit- very juicy fried chicken Loaded potatoes-delicious Fried Green tomatoes-nice crunch but would have been amazing if they had a dipping sauce to go with it. Used their strawberry jam. Fruit cup-nice and fresh The filthy animal: Huge and delicious. Hubs loved it. Jam bar was great and loved that you can get as much coffee as you want while you eat. Great and filling place for breakfast!

5 out of 5 starts..... I would give it more if I could! We were traveling from ChapelHill back to Arkansas and decided to take a couple days in Asheville. Our mom has talked about Biscuit Head since her girls trip a few years back so this biscuit loving family had to stop in! Not only do the have mouthwatering, light, fluffy, HUGE biscuits..... they also have some GLUTEN FREE!! The gentleman at the registers was knowledgeable in regards to gluten allergy and I was thankful he asked and informed me their kitchen was not a gluten free kitchen. Celiacs just know cross contamination is highly likely here. With this knowledge I did take the plunge. I am thankful I did. I ordered two gluten free biscuits (one for later) and grits. Everyone walked away happy and full. Thanks biscuit head..... I will be getting your cookbook.

First time visiting and I was very impressed with the incredibly friendly atmosphere created by all the staff. The vibe is industrial meets cat lover with lots of cute cat themed items on the menu and decor art . We tried the famed Filthy Animal and loaded fries, both of which were excellent. The filthy animal is definitely a shareable meal. I highly recommend eating at Biscuit Head as part of your Ashville experience.

I ordered a full breakfast. The eggs tasted fresh. It was the only item on the plate that was warm. The biscuit had little brown spots on top but was good tasting and fluffy. The bacon was cold and so hard I had trouble biting into it. The fried green tomatoes were cold and over done. The last two items appeared to have been sitting awhile. I paid $12;84. I will not return.

The southern scramble was phenomenal! Recommend trying it with the strawberry or berry jam.

Breakfast in the Ville would not be complete without a stop at Biscuit Heads. Pimento cheese grits and loaded home fries. Prolly top 3 grits I've ever had. Home fries were served with scallions, bacon and gravy. Mmm. Biscuits were filled with Brie, fried green tomato, poached egg, hollondaise, and smoked tomato gravy. Which tasted more like spicy tomato oil. It was still excellent!

Great lattes (maple bacon latte is fire). Incredible biscuits and bennys. Bacon is heavenly. Grab a biscuit and belly up to the jam bar and grab an assortment of jelly's to try.

Visited the Hendersonville located bright and early at 8am on a Wednesday and was the first customers. Ordered the "half breakfast" for $9 which includes two eggs, a biscuit, and a side. This was a great deal for this price and I left very full. The biscuits are large, compared to a cats head in their adorable feline-themed restaurant decor. Their "jam bar" was amazing, with the apple pie jam being my favorite. I also got a latte which was good but nothing phenomenal. The employees were pleasant and friendly as well. Definitely recommend for breakfast!

Service was fine, and the food was delicious! Their "filthy animal" was rich and tasty! Parking was a bit of a nightmare, even when the restaurant itself wasn't completely packed. But on the whole, despite the parking, I would enthusiastically recommend!

I have been here a few times while visiting my gf's family in Asheville and it is always great breakfast food. The jam bar is great and so many flavors to choose from. Make sure you have time when visiting as the line can get long, as they don't have a ton of seating area. It's worth it though, even the 20 minutes we waited in line. The bacon, the large biscuits and the Mimosa Fried Chicken Biscuits are a huge hit and super flavorful. I got a screwdriver and the fresh oj helped with how tasty it was as well.

What a gem! The owners of this restaurant really know what they are doing! The biscuits are huge, fluffy and delicious. The gravy is super yummy and the pulled pork was Ahhhmazing! There were a lot of really tantalizing choices on the menu, a full coffee menu, and a jam bar! The staff were nice, restaurant was very clean, and the food came quickly. Love this place

The worst dining experience I've ever had. Waited to park and then to order. The ham biscuit featured a dry tasteless biscuit, thin cut dry ham and a poor version of red eye gravy. $38 for two biscuit meals. Add that the available open table was next to a very loud fat coughing pig of a woman telling stories about her multiple experiences of liquid diarrhea after eating White Castle in different states. Followed by her issues with collagen back when she was on her diet. We left our meals unfinished and hit the road. Otherwise Asheville was lovely.

Came for biscuits and gravy. I had pork sausage gravy. I added two poached eggs. This place has been on my list because of all the good reviews. Service was good. Gravy wasn't my cup of tea, but the biscuit was fantastic. Eggs were perfect. With all the other choices on the menu I will be back.

We went here and we were probably one of the first people to have breakfast. We had just been driving for 10 hours so friendly employees and good food were in order. Gotta love biscuits and try something different for us! I also had to snag a zip up sweatshirt! Homey, big breakfasts and outdoor seating available as well. You can order big or order small- so something for everyone for breakfast!

As a biscuit-lover, I was so excited to try this place out. This place is literally biscuit heaven! I tried the biscuits and gravy with mushroom gravy and it was delicious. Their biscuits are HUGE and fluffy so one biscuit was plenty. The best part about this place is their jam bar! They have so many different jams to choose from, it's overwhelming. I tried the cherry, sweet potato chai, peach and rosemary, and strawberry. They were all super tasty, I wish I had more biscuits to try them all.

Food and service were both great. There was a wait, but the line moved pretty fast. Would not hesitate to return.

Can biscuits make you a better person? Maybe I feel nicer after having an absolutely delicious gluten free biscuit with fresh made jelly! Quirky vibe, super friendly service and employees that are smiling (behind their secured masks). Must check out the bathroom, seriously, unique vibe and of course clean I had the biscuits and pulled pork. Pork was ok, biscuits to die for. Non gluten free had the filthy animal. Overall everyone was full and happy! They locally source most items as well!

Biscuits the size of a cat's head is no joke. Probably the best restaurant-made biscuit I've ever had. The jam bar is awesome--all house made and such a variety from which to choose. We had the sour Cherry, sweet potato chai and mango chili. All were fantastic!! We opted for the side plate with a biscuit. The coconut collards were sweetly different but so good. Fried green tomatoes came out so hot I had to eat them last. Needed salt, but that was an easy fix. My husband got the breakfast plate with fried chicken and fried green tomatoes. The chicken seemed dry, but that's most likely to hold up to the gravies poured over the top. We opted for no gravy since my husband can't have dairy. You order at the counter and they serve at your table. The best, most unique part of this semi-fast food restaurant is the drink menu! I ordered a mega mimosa for $7, which was 16 ozs. with orange or grapefruit juice. I went traditional with the OJ. It was so good!! You can order a pitcher full for $20! The bacon of the day is a cool option. We declined since it was chocolate Cherry. But what a great idea.

My favorite breakfast place in West Asheville. Fresh squeezed juice, crispy bacon, perfect biscuits. I believe there is more than one location.

I am a self-proclaimed biscuit aficionado, and the Mimosa Chicken Biscuit with sriracha slaw was perfection. I've been dreaming of it for the past week since my first Biscuit Head experience. The coffee was great, and I loved the use of random mugs. That was a great upcycle. It took a good 20 minutes in line with only 1 cashier on a holiday weekend. But once we placed our order, the food came quickly. We didn't feel rushed, so that was nice. The cat theme was fun, and I want the bathroom wallpaper. The others in my party loved their first time at Biscuit Head , too. We'll be back!

We tried this for the first time on a random weekday, and we loved everything we tried. The bologna Benedict was creative and tasty, as were the "donuts" and French toast. It was expensive though; more than we would usually spend even for a weekend breakfast, so I am not sure it is worth the $$. We are big eaters, but even we couldn't finish the portion sizes and because we were traveling, had to just leave food uneaten. Such a waste! It was also so noisy; no interior surfaces that could deflect or absorb the sound-- all metal and wood and clanking silverware and heavy-handed cooks and waitstaff-- makes for a jumpy meal. Still-- food was amazing.

Awesome breakfast spot! Order at the counter, find a seat and then they bring the food to you. They have a really nice covered outdoor seating area. Get your home fries loaded. Try all the biscuit jams.

Headed here for breakfast prior to visiting the Biltmore. Once again, no one wants to start the day off with a bunch of hangry people on vacation, or ever!! Pick up a menu if you're dining in, head to the counter place your order and take your table number with you. Pick a table and take a seat. They bring your food out to you. I switched it up and ordered a pulled pork biscuit as I was tired of being let down by other numerous establishments with their renditions of a chicken biscuit. I am happy to report that was clearly a smart decision. I had the pulled pork biscuit sans the poached egg and it was delicious! The pulled pork was tender, full of flavor and just the right amount of pimento cheese to make me sing. The biscuit was soft and moist and buttery. Home run! The slogans and cat themed pics are hilarious and I love it!! Put some south in my mouth, I did!! Although I am not a cat person, I found the various artwork and table numbers quite entertaining and humorous! They even sell t- shirts, mugs and hats! I would definitely make a return visit if I'm back in town!

This place wasn't even on the list of places to go by any of my friends recommendations, so I think I might need new friends. This location is huge, so you know on the right morning they get popping. We were in town for 5 today days, and we ended up eating here 3 of them, that's how good the food was. The Filthy Animal- This thing is HUGE, almost too big. Everything worked well with one another, the flavors were all very complimentary. This is definitely a must try! Biscuit Donuts- These were kind of meh, but the lemon curd dipper was almost worth the price. These were good but not great. Looking Glass Carmoolita Latte- Safkt this and the other coffee beverage tried were almost mediocre. I'd say skip the coffee, and try one of the other lo al shops. The Southern Scramble- I got mine with a side of sausage gravy. This was also super good, the gravy just elevated it when more. I would highly recommend getting some plain biscuits to try the jelly bar options on. Many of them were fantastic.

The service was great, but the food... I don't even know what I bit into. When I got my food it was barely warm. The poached eggs were over cooked. The fried green tomatoes were small and thin. Then there was a chunk of Brie under each tomato and oddly a slice of red tomato, as well. And on top is a tomato purée that was not good at all. It's a biscuit that has been over-complicated and then some.

I try not to go the same place twice when I'm traveling so I can try all the local spots but I ended up at this place two days in a row because it was just so good. On the first day we visited, our group ordered the biscuit French toast, filthy animal, and classic sandwich with bacon. Everything was 10/10. The biscuits are out of this world. The French toast was something like I've never tasted before and now I can't stop craving it. The filthy animal was...huge. The servings here in general are large but this place doesn't make me feel like shit after breakfast like other places do. Everything tastes homemade and not overly greasy or fatty. On the second day, we had some repeat orders of the classic sandwich and filthy animal, but also got a full breakfast (eggs, biscuit, & two sides), pulled pork biscuit, and bacon of the day (roasted honey garlic). Everything was just as good as the first day. Cannot forget the jam bar! It was fun to try all the different flavors. And as for the restaurant itself- this place is a cat lover's dream. Love the cat wallpaper in the bathroom and the cat table numbers you get while you wait for your food. Staff was also SO nice and helpful when giving us recommendations on what to try. Hope to make it back here some day!

Always amazing. One of the best breakfast spots in Asheville. The jam/jelly bar is the perfect touch to the giant biscuits and massive positions
