The Flying Biscuit Cafe

Had a short wait on Sunday afternoon but it was worth it. The biscuits are light and fluffy. Food has tons of flavor. No wonder they have won so many awards. Service is friendly and delightful.

This was my first time here. I ordered the chicken and waffles, the Hot Honey Chicken Benedict, grits, and a mix of orange juice and peach juice. The grits that came with the Benedict were good. However, I was very disappointed with the chicken on the chicken and waffles. The chicken was not seasoned; I couldn't taste any salt or even black pepper. Y has no flavor.

This was an amazing experience. It was my first time visiting while in Atlanta. I was immediately greeted at the door. Although the café had a modest amount of patrons, it was not overly crowded. There was an abundance of seats in the restaurant and also at the bar. I was quickly give it a menu and the server offered. There was no rush to place the order. There was an abundance of happy customers and restaurant employees. Everyone was laughing and talking with each other especially employees with the patrons. It was a nice change for a moderate size restaurant. The food was amazing. I ordered the Piedmont and the grits were season to perfection along with creamyand cooked to the gods. The omelette itself was well prepared with the chicken sausage, bacon, eggs, cheese, and onions; well seasoned. The biscuit needed no butter no jam no nothing. It was one of those melt in your mouth biscuits. Absolutely will go back again. Well, worth the trip and the price to this location.

Okay french toast and coffee but both look and taste like something one could make at home. Nothing special. Grits are really good. Tea is not true southern sweet tea. Tastes like sugar water Service was great. Restaurant should do more to help new customers or those from out of town know where to park. We parked across the street not seeing the faded private parking lot sign and our car was booted. Picture of lot where you will get booted.

I'm really disappointed in this location. I've been to the one in Sandy Springs, and we have a local one in Columbus, but this location was nearest, and I was excited to take my brother there. The waitress was super nice, and we got there just before a huge crowd hit. The food, though, was just off. My gravy looked curdled and unappetizing (and tasted just okay), my brothers Sunnyside up egg was overcooked (more like over medium) and he received bacon instead of the sausage he requested. I don't think we'll come back to this location.

Such a cool little place for breakfast! Super friendly staff, especially our waitress Kiki! She's was amazing!!! Food was some of the best breakfast I have ever eaten! Highly recommend if you are in the Atlanta area!!! I had the Hangover Hash and it was so tasty!

There's absolutely nothing special about this place. The namesake alone is very deceptive. I had the freebird. Chicken was tough and tasteless. Gravy tasteless and over medium eggs ran like over easy. Grits were runny and salt. Coffee tasted like water. Server was okay. Attentive. But wasn't cheery or anything like that. It was overpriced for a chicken biscuit with eggs.

Great food, vibe is immaculate, and service is phenomenal. I have never had grits that didn't need salt, but this place, EVERYTHING is seasoned and proportioned great. 10/10 restaurant definitely recommended!

Basic. No frills. Low on ambiance. But the food is good. I had an egg white omelet filled to the brim with delicious mushrooms. It was delicious--one of the best mushroom omelets I have sampled. The toast and coffee were also in target. The lady behind the counter was not friendly, but she was not unfriendly either, and everything arrived on time. I arrived at the opening time ( 8 am on Sunday)) a there was a big crowd at the entrance. Popular place! And you need to come with your entire party together. Otherwise, you will be sent packing. I was on my own, and I immediately headed for the counter. However, be warned, it is not a counter place - it's a table place. So, I was a bit lonely. There are two large and clean bathrooms. Unfortunately, I was seated beside them, and they were doing a brisk business! Summary: Food 8/10 Service 5/10 Ambiance 2.5/10

3.5 stars would be most accurate. Tried this restaurant in a warm winter noon. I ordered the chicken tenders, a side of grits and a biscuit, and my friend, who was not hungry because she had a crepe at Green Market just before, got a side of pancake. The Grilled Mac and cheese which came with the chicken entrée was amazing and had tons of cheese! The grits were creamy, dense and had a balanced flavor. I think it is better than Mary Mac's. However, the chicken tenders were very bland and too chewy. Worse, the outside was not crispy. It seemed like they were not fried by order. Other than food, the service was okay, the dining area was too smaller--the restaurant was crowded with tables and people.

The food here. Wow. This place was so so so so good. Service was great. And after having airplane coffee (flying in) their coffee hit the spot I got moon dusted potato's with queso to dip in. Some bacon, and an english muffin. Very very good food here! Miss it already.

Corner restaurant with private parking. The seating is kind of tight and it's an awkward seating plan. Not as clean as I would have liked. There was some dust and small particles on the window sills over the table. Some wrappers and paper trash under the table across from us. Our server and wait staff, Keke was good. She was straightforward and polite, and the order was correct. We ordered the Southern Scramble, and bacon, eggs and a biscuit. I ordered a side of gravy (3.99) for my Biscuit and it was quite good We shared some grits aha. The food was fantastic and quickly brought out. Good prices and service and by all means, go visit this place. Coming back soon!!!

So so so good . My favorite part was honestly the grits . They were creamy and seasoned well. I was very pleased . I had the French toast with eggs and chicken sausage . It was delightful and my husband had the peach pancakes . Very good . If you are thinking about ordering to go do it ! The way they package it tastes just like you are sitting to eat it . I enjoyed this meal a lot and can't wait to go back and try different items .

We were looking for a casual breakfast spot while in Atlanta and were recommended The Flying Biscuit Cafe. When we got there, there were already about 5 people waiting to be seated. We waited about 10-15 minutes, which gave us enough time to peruse their extensive menu. The cafe has a fun, colorful style inside. The servers were so polite and accommodating. We ordered the Piedmont omelette (3 eggs, chicken sage sausage, applewood bacon, onions, cheddar cheese + creamy dreamy grits and a fluffy flying biscuit) and the Dirty Bird (waffle, crispy buttermilk chicken tenders, two over medium eggs, and chicken sausage gravy). There was so much food, especially for the omelette! The omelette was packed with toppings and cheese. The creamy dreamy grits were aptly named; the best grits I've ever had! And the fluffy flying biscuit was exactly that...fluffy, perfectly salted, and paired beautifully with the apple butter. The Dirty Bird was also great. The waffle was fluffy and the chicken was somewhat crispy, though it could've used a bit more crisp. The chicken sausage gravy also went well with the biscuit. I highly recommend this for a breakfast spot in Atlanta!

I have been a loyal customer of Flying Biscuit Midtown since 2016, but my most recent visit left me completely disappointed. From the moment I walked in, the restaurant had an unpleasant smell, which was immediately off-putting. I've always enjoyed my time here, so I wasn't expecting such a decline in the atmosphere and quality. Now, let's talk about the coffee. Anyone who knows me knows that my coffee is non-negotiable, and what I was served this time was far from drinkable--it tasted like dirt water. I was so confused that I even asked my mom to taste it, and she confirmed it tasted horrible. When I informed our waitress, she seemed puzzled and then offered to brew a new pot. Why would I want coffee that had been sitting there all day? Also, when I mentioned that I couldn't have soy, she didn't offer many alternatives, leaving me with no real options. The food was no better. When our plates arrived, the grits were cold, watery, and completely flavorless. The biscuits, which are usually fluffy and delicious, were hard and lacked their signature texture. When asked how everything was, we shared our disappointment, and our waitress informed the manager. Instead of a thoughtful or helpful response, the manager approached us with an abrupt tone, asking, "What happened with the food? What was wrong?" After explaining the issues, he said that next time we should let him know, and he'd get us new grits like he did with the coffee. Why should I wait until next time? Why wouldn't my concerns be addressed immediately? This experience was a huge letdown, and it's clear that something has changed at this location. From the food to the service, everything felt off, and I can no longer recommend this particular Flying Biscuit. What used to be a go-to spot is now a place I won't be returning too!

I'm still unsure of my experience with flying biscuit. I ordered the food online. Had to wait slightly less than the expected time. The service was good. Ambience was interesting. Food was interesting. I ordered a biscuit sandwich. The biscuit almost felt more like a soft English muffin than a true southern biscuit. The eggs were a bit drier than I like. The bacon was perfect. The potatoes had good flavor and if they were fresh, they would've been better but I had ordered to go so it took a while to get to them. I would definitely love to try the potatoes in person. Overall good experience but just a bit underwhelming. I wouldn't fully suggest or force myself to go back but I definitely would be willing to try them again.

A great classic go-to breakfast/brunch place with a southern twist! Service was friendly an efficient and the ambiance was nicely decorated and colorful. There's a small lot in the back with limited parking but we managed to snag one right when we got there. The line wasn't too long (maybe waited for 10 min or so) on a Saturday brunch time. Ordered the peaches and cream waffle breakfast. The waffle was great-- lightly crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. The peaches themselves were nothing too special but the flavor pairing was nice and seemed to fit the Georgia peach theme. The biscuit and gravy were very delicious, though I was surprised the "gravy" was super sweet. It almost tasted like a spiced apple jam. Delightful with the buttery biscuit regardless. The eggs and sausage patty were nothing too special either. It was worth a try during my short stay in Atlanta and great vibes!

Nothing exciting about this review similar to this restaurant. Average breakfast, service, and coffee.

First time eating here and lord it did not disappoint! The food was incredible. Flavors bursting. The biscuits were so delicious! The grits were outta control. If you love yourself a home cooked meal that's going to hit the spot then please walk in and have a seat. Our waitress Kiki was the best. So sweet. Attentive. Funny. She always made sure our table was set and that the food was hot. The restaurant is small but plenty of tables. It's a very simple decor honestly and that's because the magic is in the kitchen. Definitely has a special place in my heart.

Quick turnover on ordering. Ambience- country farmhouse Food- Good Not impressed

I wanted to try The Flying Biscuit when I was in Atlanta midtown for a conference last month. My friend and I were the first ones at the door when they opened up at 8am (so if it looks like it's not open first thing just wait a minute). I tried the biscuit, which was solid, would have liked honey to go with my butter but could only find jam. I had two scrambled eggs, chicken sausage, and a pancake - all solid. I would have enjoyed having some fruit to go with the breakfast but then again, that's not really the vibe of The Flying Biscuit.

My favorite place was closed so I tried The Flying Biscuit Cafe. Man, the food was great!! Give it a try.

I sat at the bar since it was just me. The staff barely acknowledged me. When I ordered my drink, the gal literally had her back to me so I wasn't even sure if she was listening. She pointed her finger in the air that she got my order after her coworker told her I was trying to get her attention. I waited for about five minutes when I finally called out to let them know I was ready to order. The food was good but service can truly make it or break an experience. I was so disappointed since the reviews were so good.

Delicious food and great service. Highly recommend the Biscuits and gravy and the white chocolate mocha coffee!

I hadn't been to Flying Biscuit since my college days, so when I won a giftcard through an Instagram giveaway, I was excited to check it out again! We walked up on a Saturday morning around 12p and I was shocked there was no line (usually I see lines wrapped around the corner!). We waited about 5 minutes and our group of 3 was seated right by the window which was awesome. Our server was really awesome and quick with our requests. I got a hot chocolate and the GA Peaches and Cream Waffle Breakfast. My hot chocolate was super rich and I loved the whipped cream on top. The breakfast platter came with SO MUCH FOOD, we were loving the portions!! I loved the peach compote on my waffle as well as the savory sausage it came with. The eggs were a little overdone and the biscuit was alright but I did really enjoy my cheesy grits. Overall, better than I last remembered and would recommend for Midtown brunch.

Overall a good experience. Was busy but service was good. A few mixups but they made it right. Sadly I didn't like the biscuits but enjoyed the waffles and grits . The place feels damp, sticky and smelled like wet dog.

Today is Friday 11/1 I came in to eat at about 4pm because I was in the mood for breakfast. All the other locations close around 2/3 pm and this one close at 8pm. The service was ok. My waitress seemed cool. However, the food was trash! My meal was delivered in parts, not all at once. The cooks are in the kitchen talking and laughing. The chef made my stuff French toast wrong 2 times! I asked for all the sauces to be on the side and no power sugar. The chef did exactly the opposite of what I asked for. My vegan sausage was burnt, the biscuits were hard as a Brick smh. The only good thing was the eggs and grits. I should've known not to come here at this hour. I should've went somewhere else when I arrived and there was No customers at all. Disappointed!!!

Flying Biscuit is another place where I have been multiple times but don't remember it being this good lol I always remember it being okay!! But honestly it was stellar We showed up just before 12 and we waited like 10 minutes max which was AWESOME. Once seated our waitress was super nice and attentive to us and got us drinks quickly. Food took a bit but we enjoyed chatting! I got the egg-stravaganza and it was so much food for $14. It was absolutely delicious. Would def recommend and go again!!

I'm a huge fan of one of Tyler Perry's tv show and have been wanting to try the food at the Flying Biscuit. Omg you can't go wrong with anything you order here. I'd go back to Atlanta to have this delicious brunch any day. We went on July 5 and had the wait wasn't long at all. We got there around 1-1:30 p.m. and was seated right away. Very clean and staff is very friendly. I miss that Southern Hospitality. Thank you so much Jason for answering my questions about the menu and for being such an awesome guy. I ordered the southern scramble with loaded grits and my Hubby ordered the raspberry stuffed cream French toast with loaded grits. We also ordered the fried Mac and cheese it just sounded yummy. The loaded grits are the best grits I've ever had. All our food was delicious hopefully we can have a flying biscuit in CA one day I regret not ordering a cookbook any sooner but done and done it's in the mail now. Jason was kind enough to check to see if there was any merch for sale for me and did get the apple butter. Thank you Jason!! You can also take an awesome picture outside and see the rainbow colors. I can't say enough about the delicious food and serve with a smile from here. We made sure to tell our host our compliments to the Chef also.

I thought it was cool little spot with lots of patrons enjoying their food. I decided on the waffle with honey hot sauce and chicken fingers . I ordered a hot tea and a biscuit on the side. I kind of didn't need that. The food was tasty and came out fast . I can't complain about the service because it was good. The bathrooms were clean. I need to come back again to try something else on the menu .

Just stopped in for brunch while moving our daughter to Atlanta. Friends recommended this spot told us biscuits are great. Great they are! Cute spot a stone's throw from Piedmont park. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Caution....you will use up your daily allotment of calories with your meal here.

Went on a Saturday morning after searching 'breakfast' in the area and it did not disappoint. It hit exactly what we were looking for. Waited about 30-40 minutes, and then got seated at a small table in the back. The place was packed and def can't fit more tables, but in an endearing way. Coffee is bottomless and in miss-matched mugs. Portions are generous and delicious. And our waiter Alex was incredibly personable, kind and told us to sit enjoy and don't worry if there's a line, to take our time chatting and eating Menu standouts were the perfectly crispy but fluffy waffle, the chicken sausage gravy, and the cranberry apple butter they serve with the biscuits. YUMM

got the peaches and cream waffle and split the actual waffle w friends. it also comes with a flying biscuit breakfast (pictured). big fan of almost everything - grits were creamy, biscuit was fluffy, eggs were solid. waffle was fine, but i honestly felt like i couldve done without it. the waffle itself stood on its own flavor-wise and texture-wise, which i appreciated - did not need the help of syrup in any way. but nothing super impressive. the only disappointment were the sausages, which were dry. overall though, a very hearty start to the day!

Information on Yelp could be more accurate. It appears that they have outdoor seating where you could bring your dog.

This place stays busy. You can get your good go and sit in the area outside especially if you have a big group or an active kiddo. The decorations on the wall and ceiling are nice. Food was good. Definitely got our money worth. We would try it again. We kept losing our waitress due to her taking care of other tables.

Creamy dreamy grits were definitely oh my grits delicious. i also had the Georgia peach waffle and there's where I gave 4 out of 5 stars- the smiley face made of peaches and whipped cream was cute but would have been better if it was an actual peach compote with the peaches diced or cut up in some way. The service was full service, polite and friendly. This was a great laid back spot to eat with my girls or bring the family - will come back!

I was looking for some yummy breakfast and oh my i found it. Rode the lime scooter from my hotel and came down to the flying biscuit. The line was long but worth the 10 minute wait. Waiter was nice and accommodating. Helped me make a selection and was great. I decided on the French toast meal that was around 14 dollars and it was stuffed came with sausage or bacon grits. Eggs and a biscuit. Let me tell you the flavor was great and the portions are large.. Best grits ive ever had actually. I gave this place a 5 star

We love this restaurant. Everything is always fresh and tasty and we love having vegan/vegetarian options. The service is fast and friendly and the restaurant is clean and welcoming.

Shoutout to Vladimir, great guy and you call tell he dedicated to giving everyone a good experience. It is fast casual dining that I saw open pretty early. The prices are phenomenal for Atlanta. I went all in. Got the Freebird Benedict and it delivered. It was out of bounce. Creamy, salty, rich, meaty. I was transported to flavor-town. The grits were a perfect complement to the dish, great texture to it. I rounded off my meal with a Belgian Waffle (only 4.99). It was crispy and not overly sweet. I want to nitpick but it was a perfect. Only wish I found this place sooner on my Atlanta trip.

Staff was super rude. Will make you wait outside in the rain. Food decent but not worth the way they will treat you.

The place location itself was right in midtown, with a good amount of parking in the back. We walked in and were greeted and sat pretty much immediately. The place a cool vibe. Glass walls, very open, but we didn't get that fishbowl feeling. The server was assertive and friendly. I always worry when servers take down orders by memory, but there were four of us and she didn't mess up a single thing. The food was absolutely delicious. Got to taste a couple of dishes and they were equally delightful, but with very different flavor profiles. Portions are generous and pricing is on-point for the great quality of the food. Next time we're in ATL... we'll be back!

So there's a wait for line but it was just me and my toddler so not very long. Although I needed up forgetting my wallet and they don't do electronic pay so we couldn't keep the table. Instead I order via Yelp a biscuit and Avocado toast. The space fyi small so we waited outside but the wait yelp gave was way to long. I called grubhub to cancel but since it was a small order they were able to accommodate me. I can't tell you how dope this was of them since my 3 year old just kept screaming for this biscuit. If I had time and ability I would defiantly return to this one. Thanks if you guys read this z

My mom and I decided to come here as I needed to drop her off at the airport which was more on our way. There is private parking in the back with a handful of space left at 11 am on a Monday. The cafe was almost entirely full when we got there so we were offered seats at the bar as they were the only ones available for a party of two. My mom ordered their CLASSIC BENEDICT w/ GRILLED MAC & CHEESE while I got their THREE AMIGOS BREAKFAST TACOS w/ SPICY VEGAN COLLARD GREENS. We were both beyond happy with our meals! Although the ham slices were a little thin they were well grilled just like the mac and cheese which was a first for us. I thoroughly enjoyed my breakfast tacos with all the side sauces of queso, hot sauce, and tomatillo (green sauce). The chorizo added some additional seasoning and texture with the scrambled eggs. The collard greens were also the best I've had as a newly moved Northerner, spicy and garlicy! Overall, my mom and I had a very good experience especially considering how busy they were. Our server was also the bartender, runner, and sometimes even the host at times. Everyone seems to work well together and still with smiles on their faces. With good food and even better service, I will certainly be back!

My omelet was perfect. Also, our server was kind enough to add extra cheese after I forgot to ask for some when placing my order.

Meh. This was just okay. If you want a quick meal in a tight space that feels sort of mom-and-pop-ish, this is your place! Otherwise, I suggest you go elsewhere. The best parts of the experience were that the service was friendly and the food came out quickly. The food was just okay. It wasn't the most delicious or innovative food ever, but it'll do in a pinch.

Love that this location had mimosas and other drinks. The biscuits and chicken sausage gravy are insane. Loved it. My boyfriend loved the new hot honey butter chicken & waffles.

Food is bland, service is unresponsive, the restaurant is dirty. Took 15 min to be seated. 20min to order. Avoid this place.

A fun little cafe with a unique atmosphere! Our server was soooo amazing!! He was friendly and made great recommendations for us. He took great care of us! We had some mimosas! We tried tropical and mango - both are great but favored the tropical! I had the cheesecake stuffed French toast and fruit. It was super good!! Light and fluffy slices with delicious filling and strawberries on top. Yum!

Located on the corner of 10th & Piedmont, this location is small and everything is in close quarters, which makes for a unique atmosphere. Our party thoroughly enjoyed. Make sure to park in the back, and NOT in the lot across the street, they will put a boot on your vehicle quickly. Staff: They were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the menu. Once we ordered, it took about 15-17minutes for the food to arrive. Food: Southern Omelette - wonderful concept and execution. The ratios of the ingredients were well balanced and tasted great together. Pancake Tacos - although she ate them like normal pancakes and eggs, it tasted exactly how you would expect. Salmon Scramble - she was very pleased with what she got and said it tasted good.

Great food, great service, great atmosphere. I ordered a typical breakfast but they had so many fun options on the menu.

The food was delicious. We visited on a busy Saturday morning and beat the rush. Was looking for a good latte or hot chocolate, waitress informed us the machine was out. Only negative I have. The creamy grits were a must. Very cute little resturant. Would recommend

Been coming to this restaurant for years only because it's on my way to work. Always unprofessional, unpredictable, no manners. I just stood there at the bar waiting for someone to at least greet me. I made eye contact with the dark skinned lady with dreadlocks literally 3 times and she didn't speak or ask if I have been serviced nor did she offer to assist me. I just walked out irritated. Like I said I've been coming for years only because of convenience. But not anymore. Very rude for "OKAY" food.

OMG......I am so sorry. I forgot to snap a pic when I got my food. It was good though. I went for their anniversary today and took my coworker to lunch. Neither of us had eaten at The Flying Biscuit before. The restaurant was very easy to find. It sits on the corner of 10th street and Piedmont, but Lord!!!!!!! Parking is absolutely atrocious!!!! Thankfully there is a lot right next to/ behind the building, but Jesus!!!!!! It's tight and there aren't many spots. If you have an suv, you are not going to be able to park here. My coworker and I got the flying biscuit breakfast; eggs, chicken sausage patties, grits, and a biscuit. Our server was named Lexi and she was really nice. The decor in the restaurant was eclectic and cute. There is art all over the walls and ceiling. Our food came out super fast and it was hot. We both enjoyed the meal. My coworker said her biscuit kept falling apart, but she enjoyed it still. The grits were super creamy. So much so, that they almost didn't event taste like grits. They were so good. The chicken sausage was tasty and not greasy at all. My biscuit.........was amazing. I needed you to pause for those few seconds to give respect to how good the biscuit tasted. I do have an after picture of my plate. Sorry again.......I was really excited. We only paid $11.27 for two meals. They add a credit card processing fee when you pay using a card. I'd definitely go back here, but I'd have to be in the neighborhood already or taking Uber. This would be a great place to eat breakfast before a day at Piedmont park.

The Flying Biscuit is an absolute gem! I tried the stuffed French toast, which was filled with a cream cheese that tasted like condensed milk and topped with sliced strawberries. It was a heavenly combination--rich, sweet, and utterly satisfying. Every bite was a delightful indulgence. The portion was so generous and fulfilling that I needed a nap afterward! The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff made the experience even better. This is the perfect spot for a decadent breakfast treat.

The food was just ok. My husband said his biscuit was dry. I think the most interesting thing we ate was the grilled Mac and cheese, but it very standard diner fare. My lower rating is for the space itself and overall cleanliness. It's really cramped! We were a party of two and walked through the entire restaurant to a tiny table right near a back door! Looking around made me feel like the whole place needed a good deep clean. Music was good and our server was nice.

The people working was very nice, but the pancakes taste like they was premade, frozen in the back of the fridge than warmed up. The chicken sausage was tough!!

My husband and I frequent this place at least twice a week. Their food is very delicious and the service is awesome. I recently tried the patty melt and it was awesome. Their breakfast is A1 as well. Cooked to perfection. Cudos to the cook(s).
