Honest Biscuits

Great location and some great biscuits. The wife had biscuits and gravy and I had the sausage egg and cheese. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the weather and the view. They were very tasty and I recommend them here at pikes place. Be sure and give them a try.

I stopped by Honest Biscuits yesterday after hearing they had a gluten free biscuit option via the app Find Me Gluten Free. I reviewed there, but needed to do so here as well to help other celiac patients find this wonderful spot. Honest Biscuits’ gluten free option is bar none the most impressive gluten free baked item I’ve experienced. These biscuits are buttery, flavorful, and have an incredible texture on par with any gluten biscuit I’ve had. You can get just about any sandwich on the menu with a gluten free biscuit option, and they asked me if I had celiac to ensure extra safety precautions with my order. I loved the food so much I picked up some of their gluten free biscuit mix to try at home, and I can say it is also incredibly delicious and easy to work with. Honest Biscuits will be my first stop from now on when I’m at the market. Amazing food, safe for celiacs, and friendly people.

Words cannot express how excited my kiddo is to be able to eat here. She has celiac and it has been a crazy ride trying to find places that do not cross Contaminate. The owner Chris is one Amazing and Sweet person. He truly took the time to go over their process and put my kid at ease. We can’t wait to come to Seattle just to visit this wonderful treasure.

Fabulous meal. I'm not GF, but my buddy who eats GF (wheat protein allergy, not celiac) said this was the best mf biscuit he's had since his diagnosis. Even snagged a bag of mix to fly home with.

A great place to grab breakfast and enjoy the waterfront views before walking the market. I’ve been a few times and have walked away happy each time. The biscuits are so fluffy on the inside but don’t fall apart when eating. I’d also recommend the kale salad. Truly delicious. Their orange juice is so fresh. Not too much pulp, but cold and refreshing.

Sadly, after hunting this place down..it was a disappointment. The young man taking orders just nodded, not a single word said- and got each order wrong...which is weird considering we just ordered straight off the menu. He put in weird notes, extras, and things to take off. Parts of the biscuits were ok, and most of the meat. Otherwise, just a very large bland meal. However, the chocolate place in the same location was the highlight of the trip.mso if you have someone in your party set on this place- go there!!!

We had the Dirty Bird and the Piggy Pimento! Those biscuits were as big as a grown man’s fist! So delicious! Must stop in Seattle ❤️

We have hot coocoa and it was good. The service was fast. It's a nice place if your are in the area, specialy in cold weather.

I was craving a biscuit and this place had really good ones! They have gluten free options too which is nice. Honestly, the cashier was kind of unfriendly and brief with me, luckily I didn't need to interact with her much ‍ It's right next to/at Pike's Place, and it's a lively cozy ambiance with a nice view of the sea!

This was the thickest biscuit sandwich I've ever had! I got the bacon, egg and cheese sandwich on a Pike Place biscuit and thought it was great. The bits of cheese in the biscuit definitely made it more tasty! The location was very busy as it's located in Pike's Place Market. We got there around brunch time and probably waited about 15 mins for the order (expected since Pike Place is very busy).

Really good 4.5 The biscuit was big and yummy would recommend. We order two meals and both were delicious.

Biscuit was good but a bit pricy for what it was, and the service was not very good. It his the spot if you're craving a biscuit.

I came here for the gluten free biscuit and it didn't disappoint. It could have been a touch bigger, but the flavor was on point. The disappointment was the strawberry jam which was a small packet from Smucker's or something for 50 cents. They could have kept it. The woman who was working there was very nice and offered to heat the biscuit up and it could have been a touch warmer, but all in all, it was fine. It's in a cute spot and I'm glad that I found them. I'd been looking and looking. I didn't realize that it was across the street from Pike's place. But now that I know where it is, I will go there for my biscuits. Also, they heated respectably in the microwave which is no easy feat, so they get some bonus points for that. I can't wait for the return trip!

was in town for a bao and brunch thing but arrived way early so I took a stroll down to the market to see about getting a nibble to tide me over and wound up here: just the place to satisfy my weeks long yearning for biscuits :-) sometimes life just works out. it took a second to figure out what and how and where but I managed to get me a couple boxes of carbs ordered and a couple minutes to get them in hand and they look and smell amazing!! took a picture and a bite and started back up the hill with a sack of traveling snacks. biscuits are big and fluffy (but not too fluffy) and warm and honey and butter and just a little bit drippy and I kinda wish I could get these back home...

The biscuits are some of the best I've ever had. However the people that work here leave something to be desired. They aren't very friendly and got irritated just by my asking for a fork. (I mean how are you supposed to eat biscuits and gravy) We had : biscuits and gravy. 5/5 BLT 3/5 because it wasn't lettuce but arugula and should have been lettuce. Mcgregkr 5/5 delicious and would buy again. I had an espresso which is 0/5 not even sure what that was but it was awful. Service 1/5

First time stopping by and the cashier was so very friendly and explained their menu and biscuit options. My husband ordered the Bear Sandwich and I got the sausage, egg, cheese Sandwich. Both sandwiches came out fresh, hot, and quick. The chicken on the bear Sandwich was moist and flavorful. The biscuits on both were great, although mine was a little bit crumbly. I still enjoyed it very much. The gravy was a great addition to the Bear Sandwich. Views were nice despite the cold gloomy Seattle weather.

The biscuit is good but the meat to bread ratio in the sandwiches is off. You end up getting way too much biscuit. Location is great. Views of the bay and great seating areas. Service is rather cold and transactional. No personality or smiles, just swipe and tip. Pretty normal these days though.

The counter was tugged on the 2nd floor from the top of Pike Market. Along with some other food establishments. Dark counters with plenty of standing room. The service was quick as the person had my surprise bag ready for pick up at the allocated time. The biscuits were soft, fresh and doughy. It was not flakey. The crust of the biscuit was at the right texture and not dried out. You are biting into crust outside and a soft inside for the biscuit. There was just the right amount of fat in the bite without it being greasy.

Honest Biscuits offers a delightful treat with their savory and satisfying biscuits. I tried The MacGregor, which was a really solid and tasty biscuit. It had a great savory taste with chunks of bacon and cheese, a flaky and fluffy inside, and a crusty exterior. I wished it came with a sauce, but that was on me for not opting for the upcharge of getting one. You can enjoy your food inside (not a lot of seating inside though) or step outside to take in the view of the water. The staff wasn't the friendliest though, I asked a question and the person helping was condescending and rude.

I've been here on-and-off for a few years getting my vegan biscuit fix before my downtown office closed; and just recently for another snack. Before, the dough base was using coconut milk so it was a bit too rich/heavy for me so it was just on occasion. Fast-forward to this week, I just learned they switched to oat milk base in their vegan biscuits. Just a really cool transition and prompted me to try this out. I decided to try the vegan sandwich and it was pretty good! Height is a smidgens too tall for a mouthful bite so no shame in treating it like an open-face sandwich and eating it in halves. The B&G (biscuits & gravy) was also a cozy old favorite. The staff were just friendly, chill & receptive to any questions I had. They run a cool medium cafe kiosk in a big spacious recently built and open-air interior space. You gotta dig the big exposed wooden structural members and floor-to-ceiling windows.

One of the top three biscuit sandwiches I've ever had. My partner says it's THE BEST biscuit sandwich she's ever had. The biscuit was fluffier than most but still flavorful and buttery. The egg was cooked perfectly, and the bacon was juicy and tender with just the right amount of give--it bites off cleanly and you don't end up accidentally pulling it out of the sandwich on your first bite. IYKYK. From looking at the other reviews, it seems like this place mostly got dinged on bad service. (Even some of the upset reviewers mentioned liking their sandwiches! They're that good!) If that was the problem, I think Honest Biscuits has really stepped it up in that department. The service we got was fast and friendly. On top of it all, there's a great waterfront view, and it's quietly tucked away from the Pike Place and Public Market crowds and chaos (but conveniently located near a parking garage). Bonus: get a mocha from the adjacent chocolate shop for an easy 10/10 breakfast.

Honest Biscuits, located in Pike Place Public Market, is a quaint food stall that serves a variety of biscuits and biscuit sandwiches. The biscuits are crunchy, light, fluffy and HUGE. I thought they'd be a little more buttery, but they were still very good. The staff is super nice and helpful, and the location, while small, is very chill and relaxing. There is not much seating inside the restaurant, but there is plenty outside, which I recommend since you're right on the water. If you're looking for something a little different while visiting Pike Place, definitely give Honest Biscuits a try!

This was attended on a food tour and I also bought food on my own. They had a number of different types of biscuits along with sandwiches as well. The food took some time to come out, but there were a lot of orders coming in it seemed like. A regular biscuit was tried on the food tour which was tasty. It was buttery and flaky. I also had a crab melt ($14.50) and the fried chicken sandwich ($12.75). The crab melt consisted of Dungeness crab with Beecher's and Tillamook cheeses with green onion on a butterhole biscuit. This was great. The crab mixed with the blends of cheeses combined with the flaky biscuit made for an appetizing sandwich. I would have preferred a little more filing, however. The fried chicken sandwich was a fried chicken thigh with mayo and pickles on a butterhole biscuit. This was my preferred choice of the two sandwiches. The chicken was crispy and went well with the biscuit. I also had pimento cheese ($4) that came with carrots. This was very good too. It was just so creamy and fresh. Will I go back? Yes.

A VEGAN SOUTHERN STYLE BISCUIT!!!!! As a southern belle myself, I can testify that these were fire and scrumbo! I felt myself transported to my South Carolina swamps

On my final day in Seattle I happened upon this gem. When I say this place was the highlight of my trip, I still wouldn't be doing it justice. The ambiance indoor is charming and eclectic. I ordered the crab melt and strawberry lemonade. It was a gorgeous day so I decided to have my breakfast outside. The views were immaculate! It was truly the perfect summer day. Though it was counter service, one of the employees walked our food out to us and even went above and beyond to grab us extra napkins and silverware. The biscuit was a bit on the crunchier side of things so the sandwich could have used some type of sauce, but it was yummy despite these minor things. I can't wait to visit again! Food rating Crab melt 8/10 Customer service 10/10 Ambiance 100/10!

There is NOTHING wrong with anything here. We are gluten free and everything tasted great. The fried chicken biscuit was my favorite but the one with butter and strawberry jam was amazing!!

We stopped here on a food tour (recommended to get Lucky the tour guide) and the biscuits were absolutely fantastic. So good that we came back the next day with a plan of having another biscuit and the mole coffee cake. Unfortunately they were out of the cake on our second visit but we did have another delicious biscuit!

My family had been looking forward to your food and we were thirsty after enjoying the sun outside. We came in and you took my order. I paid for it. Then you told everyone it's closed so you could not take any more orders. Then you turned to me and said you couldn't make the chicken and biscuits. You then decided to refund me my entire order. How hard is it to fill two lemonades and a mimosa? Seriously. Your staff might be tired and I have no idea how busy the day was for you but we're customers and we didn't get that kind of hospitality or treatment as a customer. Your biscuits might be something people like but don't expect us to come back anytime soon.

Part of the Pike Place Market addition this biscuit bakery was delicious. If you offer baked goods at Pike Place you actually have to bake it on sight. We joined Chef John on a tour of the market. Delicious cheesy biscuits we enjoyed! Very clean, lots of space, looked great! Would highly suggest!

I hate to give it 3 stars because the biscuits themselves are absolutely magnificent!!! However, the service has declined. I go for my usual and get the crabby melt on a butterhole and I add bacon for an additional charge. Biscuits are fresh, buttery, absolutely airy deliciousness! Huge portion which just makes it that much better. It taste fresh, cheeses, and buttery! Love love love! Skip the sparkling espresso it was just super foamy and not enjoyable to me Now the service and general "ambiance" is this, unfortunately. The cashier took a long while to take my order and get set up. Okay, whatever. They also look pretty sloppy which doesn't mean a lot to some, but also they were not the friendliest. I saw someone making dough outside the kitchen area and it didn't look the tidiest. Then here's the kicker, I am waiting and I thought, oh I havnt been in a while, let me take some photos. Nay nay! I go to start a video of the biscuits being buttered, mind you I'm just wanting to get the biscuits, and this employee FREAKS OUT! There are no signs on them or around the station to warn people to not take photos. I literally just wanted to sent a video to my husband and say "butter my biscuits". I mean he full on SCREAMS at me, back up 20 feet and demands that a camera not be pointed at him. Dude, not even pointing at you, I could care less. I do apologize but the whole set up is so you can watch the process! I can't imagine if I did that and he was taking them out of the oven...... like, not the job for you sir. So definitely a damper on the experience since the biscuits are so damn good!

Yum! The food was delicious. I preferred the gluten free biscuit over the full of gluten ones, which is a rarity. Coffee was good and service was efficient. We sat outside and watched the fog fade away.

I was not impressed with the taste mainly because there was none. It tasted like empty dough. I could see it as a sandwich being potentially good as the other ingredients would shine through but standalone, the biscuit offers nothing of substance. Great atmosphere and the strawberry lemonade is great!

Ordered The Dirty Bird to go, and oh my goodness... the fattest chicken thigh fried in delicious batter with a lovely side of rich, Southern style gravy, with a base of the cheesiest, butteriest grits as the base. I literally went to this place with Yelp review in mind and part of that was taking a picture. I took a bite and proceeded to eat the entire thing and realized that I didn't take a pic afterward. That's how good it is.

Oh damn. Gluten free biscuits are so damn good. Been GF for 13 years and these are my favs, ever. Add in a GF fried chicken and GF gravy, I was in heaven. Orange juice was also fresh squeezed. I was a happy camper.

This place is fantastic. The biscuits are huge. Crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They people are fantastic.

***Delivery Review Only*** Say less if your menu offers biscuits and grits. Although the packing made it seem their bowl is small, it's filing. My absolute favorite is their Pink Palmer. The food arrived still warm and excellent packaging. I'd be sure to order from them again.

I went there today. Biscuits are better than average. I tried the MacGregor with just butter and the southern sausage gravy biscuit. Sausage gravy needed way more sausage. I got a few flecks of sausage and one measly little chunk. Not nearly enough. The MacGregor needs more cheese. The really disappointing part was the service and attitude. When I said thank you, numerous times, I'd get a yup response. Wasn't greeted when I walked in. I stood at the register and waited easily 5 minutes while being ignored by 4 staff including one standing right in front of me working on an iPad. No greeting. No we'll be with you in a minute. Nothing. Would have been nicer all around if the employees weren't surly. I was the only customer there for God's sake and it was 8:30 in the morning. Do better surly people.

Amazing gluten free biscuits, best I've ever eaten. Quick service, gorgeous location on the west side of the Market.

How I heard of this place: It was through a Yelp event that I heard about Honest Biscuits, and we were happy to have sampled their food again, on 16 October 2018. Type of cuisine: Classic buttermilk biscuits (regular or gluten-free), taken as is or stuffed like a sandwich. Ambiance: Set in a huge room in the Pike Place Market, Honest Biscuits shares it's space with a number of other local businesses. Very rustic in it's appeal, the space entertains tall ceilings, dark interior and limited lighting. Much is offered by way of seating, so diners from all the establishments can find something indoors, or on the patio where they can sit to enjoy their meals. What I ordered: Fried Chicken on a Butterhole Biscuit with crispy chicken thigh on a biscuit, mayo and pickles from the Seattle Pickle Company, and Southern Style with white sausage gravy on a Butterhole Biscuit. What I loved: The fry on the fried chicken, the melt in your mouth, buttery, flaky biscuit and the delicious combinations. Why I loved it: It's great to support local establishments that serve excellent food, thoughtfully prepared and tastily presented, Cost: Average to High

Was very disappointed with the biscuits and gravy, southern style, that I just tried to eat. The gravy was supposed to be a 100 year old recipe from N. C., but I found it to be bland, especially when placed on top of an over cooked biscuit that was tough to fork. Even the plastic knife was hard put to the task. Maybe the biscuits alone or with a sandwich would be better, but I would not recommend it. When I told the owner my issue, he was sympathic, but didn't offer anything to compensate me. Poor customer service.

good. biscuits were a little dense for my taste, but my fiancé says they were perfect. both of our sandwiches were good, but not the best ever. i would consider returning, but i do not think it's a must.

You're presented with two solid biscuit options at Pike Place, Honest Biscuits or Biscuit Bitch. I tried both, which of course makes me an expert. If you want more sandwich or flavor options, go here. The strawberry and mini lemon biscuits looked really interesting but I compared plain biscuits with butter and honey, and this one was good but not my favorite. Nice slather of butter, but was slightly disappointed paying extra for the little Kraft packet of honey I received. The biscuit is a little more dense which I imagine would be great for sandwiches. I did really want to come back for the chicken sandwich but couldn't make it work with the hours. Service was good, price was reasonable, more seating here which is a plus if you want to sit down and eat. Would rate 3.5 if I could!

The staff was super friendly, the coffee was well-made, and I had no complaints about my biscuit with sausage gravy. I upgraded my biscuit to the delightful, caramelized, onion, and bacon one, and that did take it to another level. There could've been more sausage, crumbled up with the gravy, but let's be honest, nobody makes it like my mum. I haven't stumbled upon any other biscuit places yet, but there are a few more to check off during this trip. I'd say this is a solid four star, and I feel like everybody could find something that they like.

Food is great.... But Honest Biscuit is a victim of their own success. Placed an order ahead of time online knowing they would be busy... And still waited over half an hour for food after arriving... shouldn't take 45+ minutes for three biscuits (only one of which was a sandwich).

Great biscuits! We had the pike place, holiday, and BLT. Service was fast and everyone was nice, not as crowded as the main pike place restaurants. Go down the stairs!

The vegan biscuits are awesome! My wife and I get the vegan GF gravy with the vegan biscuits when we go here and they are delicious. When the weather is nice the views are amazing at the outdoor tables. Staff is friendly and we will keep going back. One day we need to try their vegan sandwich.

3.5 Stars -Vegan Biscuit Sandwich ($10.50): I loved the plant based sausage shavings, vegan cheese, arugula, stone ground mustard and pickled onions which complimented each other perfectly -Butter-hole Biscuit with Jam, Butter, and Honey: I actually liked the vegan biscuit better than the non-vegan, but you can't really go wrong with this combination either. It's supposed to be a buttermilk biscuit but I couldn't really tell. The biscuits themselves are dense, dry, and have nice crispy edges. They are not very flavorful and more of a vehicle than a stand out. Overall although these aren't the best biscuits I've had, I loved the variety of menu items and would come again! Located in a small window in an eating area with tables next to Pike's Place and the Waterfront.

Had the bacon egg and cheese on the gluten free biscuit. Best GF biscuit outside of Virginia! Grateful you take such care to avoid cross contamination. Can't wait to return.

My family and I had been at the Aquarium and were walking around the riverfront. Honest Biscuits is located inside a shared space nearby. There is a Brewery on one side as well as a chocolate shop. It is a nice space with a view overlooking the sound. It is in the area of the city where the freeway was removed and it is not being renovated. As their name suggests the main item is Biscuits. They are quite large, easily sharable. They are large buttermilk biscuits with various added ingredients. I got one with bacon and cheese. It was very good and a nice snack in the middle of the day. I'd say it was a bit drier than expected though. The service was a bit slow given it was in during an off time, but overall that was a minor complaint.

I LOVED how nice the staff were! They were so fun to talk to. There aren't a lot of seating so you may have to stand around eating this. Otherwise, I loved the biscuits. They're massive and filled with so much sauce, egg, a patty! I got the vegan one and it was equally delicious. It's a perfect breakfast/brunch food near the Space Needle. Their chai latte was okay, not too sweet

I'd heard about this place for a while and it was definitely on my list of eateries to visit on my Seattle trip. I was definitely not familiar with the area and it took me a while to find the physical location, it was actually a bit tucked away on the lower level of Pike's Place once you enter out onto the deck overlooking the waterfront. I was so excited that they offered a gluten-free version of the biscuit and the cashier was very patient while I asked her what menu items could be made as a gluten-free version. I ended up getting the crab melt biscuit, which included pieces of fresh crab melted with chunks of Beecher's Flagship Cheese, another specialty stall in Pike's Place (an extra plus since that place is famous for it's mac n' cheese, which was unfortunately not gluten-free). The biscuit was *amazing*, it was so airy and fluffy and paired so well with the crab and cheese. I'm usually on my phone when I eat by myself but I found myself literally just savoring every bite of this biscuit :) It was definitely pricey, ~$16, but definitely worth at least a try in my opinion. They had a few tables right in front of their ordering counter, but overall space is fairly limited. I'm only upset that I wasn't able to try more of their menu before I had to leave Seattle - I truly can't praise their biscuit sandwiches enough!!

Point blank: DELICIOUS - EAT HERE!!!!!!!!! I'm literally shocked this place does not receive a 5 star from everyone! Once I tried the biscuits, I was hooked. My fiancé and I have now opted to go there for THE BEST breakfast sandwiches of our lives for four weekends now. I've also purchased 4 gluten free biscuit mixes for making batches at home and can say they're amazing, as well. Outside of the incredibly delicious food, the service is great! The staff are so friendly and they offer waters and extra takeout boxes/bags if you don't finish. You can also place orders ahead and/or have orders delivered.

Came here on a food tour and tried a delicious biscuit. Had to come back the next day for biscuits and gravy, holiday biscuit, and the breakfast sandwich biscuit. Sooooo good! Paired with a specialized chocolate drink from Indi, and you have the best breakfast! There is some seating inside and we were able to manage our umbrella stroller very easily.

Honestly kind of disappointing biscuits. Unfortunately didn't read any reviews before I checked this place out. Biscuits alone are $3.75 with butter/jam/honey. They also have lots of breakfast and lunch sandwich options for $7-10. There were not a ton of people before us, and it still took a while for our biscuits to come out. I ordered the butterhole with honey and was pretty disappointed. The outside is nice and crunchy but the inside is very bread-y. The biscuits really aren't a great texture and I would have expected them to be more flakey. They are also so so undersalted. My friend got the caramel apple biscuit and I tried it and it wasn't flavorful at all. tldr: boo, skip this place

Took a food tour and really enjoyed the small biscuit bite we were able to enjoy, so we figured the next morning, this would be a great place to grab breakfast. We ordered biscuits and gravy and an egg and bacon biscuit sandwich. Hate to say it, but both were just kind of bland. No real taste. The gravy was runny with barely any bites of sausage, no real flavor. Both biscuits were very dry and it was tough to even finish the breakfast sandwich given how dry the biscuit was. All in all, a very disappointing return to what was a tasty bit the day before. Maybe they are only good in a smaller form factor...thus avoiding being dry inside. Also, would be great if they got organized and cleaned up the corner mess that is their front of house. From trash, buckets of oil, a laptop, and dozens of other boxes, etc this is seating space you could really use.

Pretty good GF biscuits. 3 stars because some biscuits are large, some are medium-sized. Size consistency not in the cards plus a very light on the crab for the price. Recommendation: only ask for the roasted chicken on a larger biscuit. Pricey, but tasty.

The biscuits were dry and hard. I took one to go and instead of giving me my topping on the side they just plopped it on top. So when I went to eat it all the topping was sucked onto one corner of the biscuit.
