"Take a space that feels a little bit like a boxcar diner furnished by a tiny house designer, add some all-day breakfast, and you get Seattle Biscuit Company. Food-wise, everything here obviously revolves around biscuits, which is great news because the biscuits are really, really good. You’ll find a lineup of sandwiches like the Gus (our favorite - fried chicken, pickles, sweet onion mustard, an egg, and thyme-y sausage gravy) and the Lunch Pail (peanut butter, apple slices, and berry jam), but also classic dishes like biscuits and gravy. If you’re really starving (or have a bunch of friends with you), you can always get the Bishop Jim Earl Swilley, which is a plate of biscuits, four eggs, bacon, ham, cheese, pickles, gravy, pulled pork, sausage, and grits, all served with a 40 oz. bottle of Bud." - Aimee Rizzo
"This little shack-sized joint on Leary Way has a hidden gimmick: All of the ingredients are sourced from places so close that co-founder Sam Thompson, a former professional endurance runner, can jog to them. The biscuit sandwiches here have none of the asceticism associated with long-distance running, however: We love the one with fried chicken, sausage gravy, and sweet onion mustard; another fan favorite is the Che, SBC’s version of a Cuban sandwich. But these biscuits are so good it almost doesn’t matter what you put between them — flaky, warm, with just a hint of sweetness." - Harry Cheadle
"There are a lot of biscuits in this town, but few are as good as the ones at Seattle Biscuit Company. The dining room looks like a boxcar diner in the middle of nowhere, which is inexplicably comforting at brunchtime. We could see a pre-ride coffee and biscuit situation happening here, though a post-ride pile of fried chicken and sausage gravy with a Bloody Mary on the side might be nice as well. The choice is yours, but there’s no wrong one." - aimee rizzo
"Sometimes you want a light, healthy breakfast, and when you do drive right on by the Seattle Biscuit Company because the sandwiches here are heavyweights. A lot of them combine bacon or sausage with berry jams; the Che adds ham, pickle, sweet onion mustard, and apple butter to the mix and the miracle is that it somehow isn’t overwhelming. The second miracle is the biscuits, which are big and sturdy enough to support all those sweet and savory Southern sandwich fillings but are never stodgy." - Eater Staff, Harry Cheadle
"It might seem obvious, but we are morally obligated to tell you that Seattle Biscuit Company has excellent biscuits. You’ll find a lineup of sandwiches like the Gus (our personal favorite, with fried chicken, pickles, Walla Walla sweet onion mustard, an egg, and gravy) and the Willie Lee (egg, Beecher’s Flagship, bacon, and berry jam for a curveball). But you could also get one topped simply with butter, honey, and rock salt. It’s also always a great time hanging out in their space that looks like a boxcar diner. Pair brunch with a Bloody Mary or a carafe of mimosas." - aimee rizzo
