Super cute eatery, with a vast menu and friendly staff. We were passing through the town and…read moredecided to give it a try. We ordered the Supreme BS, Bacon, Egg, n Cheese BS, and a bowl of bacon and eggs for our dog. We sat outside due to having our dog with us. It was a nice day so we sat at one of the tables and enjoyed our delicious sandwiches. Great option!

Stopped in on our way out of Johnson City. We were in town for an engagement party at the Garrison…read moreBrother's distillery, and we saw many signs in town for the Jittery Biscuit. Figured we'd give it a try on our last morning before leaving! Loved how there was free parking on the street. We did have our dog with us, so one of us had to stand outside with him while everyone else ordered, as they only allow service animals inside. Inside, I do feel that they could have done a better job decorating/setting it up. It seemed extremely dated, and for such a highly reviewed spot (meaning food/drinks are good) they should make it more inviting! I will say, the little outdoor dining area is cute. We waited almost 20 minutes for our coffees and biscuits to be ready, which was surprising given that the place was empty inside. Once the food and coffees were ready, it was all pretty tasty! I don't expect to be out that way again any time soon, but if you find yourself in the area and want something small to eat, check this place out!

Apparently not for the thin skinned, because the reviews don't justify, We stumbled across this GEM…read moreon our way to Fredericksburg, he waved us on in when we pulled up! Coffee was AMAZING. He owns probably one of the most memorable coffee experiences you'll have! We chatted for a moment, and under the "Grumpy Barista" is actually a kind gentleman which if you take a moment to offer some kind small talk, he may just make your day, like he made ours! 5/5 for service, coffee, atmosphere!

I loved the store aspect of the place. It's very eclectic and the owner supports handmade and…read moreethically sourced items. I bought some nice trinkets for my friends back in Houston for a great price. The courtyard is spectacular; it's filled with little metal sculptures and iron trinkets that really brighten up the outdoor seating. The coffee shop, however, wasn't anything special, and the "grumpy barista" gave me a real hard time over a cup of water, which wouldn't have rubbed me the wrong way if I wasn't paying for a $7 cappuccino and it wasn't 102 degrees outside. Overall an aesthetically lovely place. Really I just have one tip: If I were the barista, I'd learn the difference between being rude and grumpy. You're never too old to learn new things! EDIT: the owner responded back saying nothing on the menu is $7 and that is correct, but I'm not sure why he must have forgotten that add-ins such as almond milk and vanilla syrup (which I got) add on to the drink price. Just wanted to state why my drink was more expensive, and be as "factual" as I can! :)
