Stopped here for a late brunch on New Year's Day on the way home from Dollywood. Their biscuits were literally twice the size of a regular biscuit. Nice & fluffy & just heavenly. I got the half bkft of 2 eggs (easy over) & a biscuit with one side (pimento cheese grits) & a hot chocolate. Pimento cheese grits were delicious & a good complement to my eggs. They have an awesome Jam Bar with a sign that reads "Don't waste it. We work really hard to make it." So apparently they make their own jam. I got a little of the rosemary peach & berry bomb jams. Both were delicious & I ate it all. My dining companions got the full breakfast with scrambled eggs bacon, home fries & biscuit and the Fried Bologna Benedict. The FB Benedict was good but missing the poached egg. The hot chocolate had a nice presentation with the foam & marshmallows but very weak in chocolate flavor. The bathroom was clean and had a small heater which was really nice on this cold windy day. Not sure if I will ever come through West Asheville again, but if I do I would definitely consider stopping again @ the Biscuit Head. read more

The food is great and the vibe is so fun! We loved the jam bar, and my Southern husband felt vindicated to hear someone else use the term "cat head biscuit". read more

Great breakfast. Loved the biscuit with my eggs ( had to order a second ). Great selection of homemade butters, and jams. Friendly staff. Next time I visit, I'll be back. read more

I insisted that my party try Biscuit head for breakfast to start our day since I heard such great things from a friend who lived in the area. You start by waiting in line as you make your way into the restaurant, the feel is very diner with tons of fun cat artwork on the walls!! There are menus at the counter or you can get lucky by nice patrons passing the menu back. I decided to try the traditional bacon and egg biscuit with bacon as my side. They hand you a number and you seat wherever there is an open table. I do admit I was nervous as the seats were filled, but the tables were turning over rather quickly and there was seating outside. We were told by multiple employees to try the jam bar! There are so many different varieties i.e. strawberry jam, sweet potato jam and lots of different flavors. My biscuit was fluffy, the eggs and bacon were cooked fresh to order. It was delicious! Especially when paired with the jams. My friend said it was one of the best biscuits he had eaten in his life (he wasn't kidding and I don't blame him). Great experience with yummy food and friendly staff. Stop by and become a biscuit head! read more

While staying at our AirBnB, Biscuit Head was mentioned as a recommendation numerous times in their book. We decided to try it for breakfast. HOLY COW! The portions are giant! The food was delicious, and so was the coffee! It's counter service, so you take care of yourself. The people there were super kind. The place was clean and taken care of. read more

This breakfast spot is all the hype and then some. They're always jammed packed but the service is above and beyond and overwhelmingly kind. We were lucky to get a table and enjoyed the fried green tomatoes and the biscuit sandwich. The specialty bacon is something I crave at 2 am and the buttery biscuit melts in my mouth. This place accepts everyone and the environment is amazing. read more

First time in Ashville and this place came highly recommended. I'm glad I took the advice to come. I ordered the half breakfast and it was just the right amount of food and for $9 you can't beat that price. My biscuit was soft and the homemade strawberry was chefs kiss lol. It was most definitely the warm cozy breakfast shop I needed on this cold morning. Staff was super nice and friendly and were on top of cleaning and clearing tables. read more

Man I really wanted to like this place. The ambiance is cool, has a nice vibe and was pretty busy for lunch. I ordered the Filthy animal, and boy was in disappointed. I don't know what seasoning they used in the chicken but it ruined the whole meal. It was too much like a jerk flavor and tasted like they put the spices in after they had already cooked it. The jalapeno pimento cheese esd also a miss. There wasn't enough of it in the sandwich to even notice. And the bacon of day was Korean bbq and it just did not sit well with this meal. All and all, very disappointing as I was looking forward to coming here. read more

I used to absolutely love this place. But over the past couple of years it's been really inconsistent. To the point where I don't know what the same meal is supposed to even taste or look like when it's served. I have struggled with this for years but keep going back because when it's good, it's good. This final dried Chicken Mimosa biscuits with a tiny piece of chicken and just enough sweet potato butter and just enough Coleslaw that I couldn't salvage the top of the biscuit with the jellies and butter. Yet also just enough to know it needed more. Honestly, this last meal should've been a 4.99 special at a fast food establishment. So alas, I am breaking up with Biscuit Head. Sorry guys. We had some good times but it hasn't worked out for me in a while and the thrill is gone. read more

Food is great, vegetarian options Great jelly bar, good hot coffee, very popular southern breakfast place read more

If you're looking for southern biscuits and gravy, this place isnt it! the "biscuit" is basically a piece of cake made from biscuit batter with no cooked edge because its just cut out of a cake pan. You're not going to get a flakey buttery biscuit. The sausage gravy was more of a remoulade sauce and the sausage that was supposed to be in it was basically some fried beyond meat, into crisp chunks of something inedible. Literally one of the worst things I have ever eaten. If you want good biscuits, Hardee's is where its at and I have had plenty at many various restaurants. Even McD beats the sox off of most places. Tupelo Honey has good biscuits too but no B&G. read more

Outstanding! My husband and I visited this biscuit spot after driving 2 hours to Asheville. We were starving and decided to stop by here first before heading to downtown. We stood in a 10 minute line which went by fairly quickly. My husband ordered a sausage gravy type of biscuit, and I ordered a plain biscuit. We also wanted fresh orange juice but they had run out of OJ and gave us grapefruit juice instead (which was good but not too big of a fan of bitter juices). The Jam Bar was AMAZING. Soooo many jam options - my favorite was apple pie. It was so darn delicious. Absolutely recommend! It was such a great brunch meal. read more

Heard so many good things about this place! We were visiting Asheville and wanted to try all the good places! First, be prepared to wait. The line was outside of the door but we expected that so it did not bother us. Inside is packed but there's lots of seating. You sit wherever it's open but you do have to order your food first. The biscuits are huge so come with an appetite! Everything was delicious, including their donuts. I would for sure come again but would probably try to come closer right when they open. read more

Back in Asheville means back to Biscuit Head. While I've normally gone to the Biltmore location, this time I visited the Haywood location. Going on a weekday was also a score as there weren't the lines I'm used to. Once again, I didn't go wrong. I got my typical Country Ham biscuit with fried green tomato and red eye gravy. I haven't ventured to other options because I love this one so much. Add some Sweet Potato Chai and Sour Cherry from the jam bar and I'm sold. Only negative and I'm not affecting my rating as at this Location if you don't find any free parking, the lot is $3.50/hour. Not a surprise since it's downtown, but the Biltmore Location is free. No matter which one you go to, prepare yourself for biscuit goodness read more

I think they may have been having an off day. The best thing in my opinion was the strawberry butter. The pimento cheese grits were just grits with a chunk of pimento cheese thrown in the middle of them. Biscuits and gravy with the sausage gravy just had gravy with chunks of sausage thrown on top, not even mixed it into the gravy. The plain biscuit was decent. The fried chicken was all dark meat, but overcooked and the breading was not very good. Looking at pictures from other peoples orders of fried chicken on other biscuits what I got does not match what I'm seeing another pictures. Service was good and inside the restaurant was cute. I would probably still give this restaurant another try at least one more time. read more

My taste buds were beyond happy with this amazing meal. The biscuits are huge, the eggs were cooked perfectly. The gravy was tasty, just a bit too spicy for my taste buds. For those who love spicy food, I have no doubt would give the gravy five stars. read more

We went around 11:30 on a Saturday morning and the line was pretty long as always lol. However, once we were in and sat down, we noticed that the line died down a lot around 12:30-1:00 so would l definitely recommend going around then. The chicken on my mimosa fried chicken biscuit was super tender and juicy! It is also a hefty and heavy portion so I had leftovers enough for a late night snack which was great after heating up in the air fryer haha. The jam bar is the highlight of the experience in my opinion and they have a pretty good selection in pre-packaged cups you can take. My favorite jam was definitely the peach rosemary! read more

Biscuit Head - Mimosa Fried Chicken Biscuit - Bakeries Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Biscuit Head is one of the highly popular spots to brunch at in Ashville. I had read about how packed it could get during the weekend at peak brunch time, but we were there for lunch on a late Friday morning and thankfully it wasn't too bad. We jumped on the line before it got long and probably waited about 10 minutes before placing our orders at the bar. The staff member at the bar took our orders and gave us a table number stand, so someone can find us later to bring us our food when it was ready. The breakfast biscuits we had were just ok. These biscuits are known as cathead biscuits because they are as big as a cat's head. Definitely did not live up to the hype, but their prices were reasonable and the portions were big. read more

Great food. Great vibes. Great people! Loved the selection of jams (food and music lol) Everyone throughly enjoyed their meals. Even tho it was very busy the food was delivered quickly! The biscuits were great but I think the shining star for me was the potatoes lol. If you have the chance definitely stop by! Oh, we tried the drink of the day which was like a lavender lemonade and it was fantastic! read more

All the way yess!!! Absolutely loved this place and will definitely be back. Biscuits are huge. Come hungry. I recommend having a group with you just so you can try all the different biscuits they have. It's a order at the counter and take your number to your seat kind of spot. They were pretty quick and efficient for a busy Sunday morning. read more

Great food, great service, great ambiance. What note could you want? Very casual breakfast spot. Lots of different Biscuit options. Coffee and drinks are on point. No line while we were here. A bunch of different Biscuit gravies to choose from. The staff was friendly and efficient. Wait for the food was short. Prices are solid. There's parking in back that you pay for. All in all great little local spot read more

Expect to wait in line. But tables rotate quickly and it's worth it. This is a breakfast dream place if you like biscuits. They are large and fluffy. My wife got the sausage and gravy biscuits. Huge plate , enough for 2. Wish we had ordered more gravy. They have several options for gravy. Even vegan. I got the filthy animal. It was fried chicken, scrambled eggs , bacon , biscuit and gravy. It was huge and a real meal. Everyone is friendly and helpful. The line moves fast. This is a must breakfast. They have fresh orange juice and many coffee options. A bar with jelly and butter. read more

Holy amazing biscuits!!! So warm, for fresh, with the right amount of crisp! I want to eat them ece Biscuit Head did not disappoint! From the cozy environment to the friendly staff and delicious food! Oh...and that Jam Bar was fantastic!!! We ordered The Filthy Animal and boy was it crazy good! It's was smothered in a delicious gravy and we added grilled jalapeño sauce from the jam bar for an extra kick! We also ordered the Full Breakfast with yummy country ham and pimento cheese grits! You can't go wrong with pimento cheese and ham! The caramel latte was perfectly made and we enjoyed the freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and lemonade. The establishment was clean and the bathrooms were spotless and adorable! I LOVE the cat theme...no allergies triggered by the way haha! Parking is super convenient, you pay through the ParkMobile app and, per a sign on there counter, they no longer validate. Totally not a big deal for a good time spent and yummy food. read more

A place not to be missed for breakfast is Biscuit Head. They have several locations around Ashville, but we chose the one on Haywood Road because we felt parking would be an issue. The is a lot of paid parking behind and some street parking. I have to say that the owner(s) of Biscuit Head must love cats because there are images of cats everywhere. There are NO reservations so expect a wait, but it is worth it. We had a line outside to greet us and then you get inside to the same line. Tables are sought out once you have the order in and the number received. I got the Filthy Animal which is a biscuit with egg, bacon, and fried chicken breast smothered in gravy. My choice was the Shiitake Mushroom gravy all of it was delicious. I don't like those photos of a cleaned plate, but I could have taken one when we visited because it was gone. They also make their own jellies and I had two favorites, mango/chili and peach/rosemary. Good food and a good price....yes Biscuit Head I will "put some south in my mouth", thank you for the slogan that fits the food. read more

Awesome cathead biscuits, creative menu, a JAM BAR, lots of inside and outside seating! Definitely a place you should be eating breakfast or brunch in west Asheville. This is the original location of the three. *Parking hack* Park somewhere else up the street instead of the pay lot behind. There's a big Ingles parking lot nearby. read more

After hearing loads of people raving about Biscuit Head, we had to check it out before heading out of Asheville. We stopped in late on a Monday morning and didn't have to deal with the lines we'd heard tell of (yay!). He got biscuits and gravy and added some scrambled eggs to top it, The Asheville Benedict was right up my alley and was very tasty. I tried a couple of house made jellies... cuz, yum... I think they stole the Biscuit Head show for me. Both the strawberry and cherry jam were totally my jam. Wish I would've thought to ask if they sold some to go. The gravy in his dish was good... exactly what you'd expect of sausage gravy. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because the biscuits we got seemed to be overcooked. They were drier and more crumbly than I expected. All in all, however, I would recommend this place. read more

A place that somehow nails quality, taste, service and efficiency at the same damn time. I love a southern buttermilk biscuit and these are simply the best I've ever had. Expect to wait in line, but the line moves quickly and, despite being packed, there's somehow always a table available by the time you order at the counter and scout out some seats. I don't live in Asheville but it's become a favorite place to visit. Biscuit head is always a must on the itinerary. I've had the bacon egg and cheese biscuit as well as the southern scramble. Both were delicious. One of the best things about this place is the jam bar, with so many yummy jams and spreads to try. I most recently tried the peach rosemary which was a killer combo. If you don't have biscuit head on your agenda, pencil it in now. read more

Biscuit Head makes my favorite biscuit in the world and my favorite biscuit sandwich - the filthy animal. I slather it in their house made rosemary peach jam and it is an absolute symphony in my mouth. Every time we visit Asheville we have to stop in at least once. This time, we brought our daughter and she loved it as much as we do, which was heartwarming. The food always flies out of the kitchen and is just delicious. If you haven't been, you're really missing out. They also sell their jams in jars to take home and we always have to grab a couple when we visit - you should, too! read more

This was recomeded as a must during my visit Food: not impressed. My biscuit with fried chicken left much to be desired. Meal was dry and i had to leave out most of the meat which was very chewy and mostly bone and very fatty. I did not like the flavor either... Lacking in seasoning. The biscuit itself was delicious! So was the lemonade!! Service: it was okay. You order at the counter, they give you a number, you seat yourself and they bring you your food. They forgot one of the drinks the first time and we had to wait for it for a bit. Price: price was appropriate for portion but not for flavor Ambiance: shared space eating. Many long wooden tables with many ppl sitting everywhere. Very loud and a lot of movement. The longer we were there the more crowded it became and a line formed out the door... Note: get there as early as possible when we arrived there was no line or wait to order it sit. read more

I asked for so new utensils and napkins and they were great. They had to work fast and quick to get through the long lines here. We were here around 11pm before the rush. As we waited, we looked around at the cute decorations. The food was what cemented this place in our memory. It was so perfectly balanced and there was a jam bar to adjust the food more to your liking. Worth the $20! read more

This location is close to the Biltmore Estate (less than 10 min). There aren't any reservations and you'll need to place an order/get a number before finding a table aka no holding or saving spots. Lines moved at a decent pace, but don't be those people who stand in line for 20 min and don't look at the menu until you get to the register. The mimosa chicken biscuit was flavorful and the sweet potato butter was more sweet and less savory, the slaw had a nice kick. I enjoyed the jam bar-specifically the peach rosemary (you can also buy a jar for $7). read more

This place never disappoints! It's a must-go when I'm in town! The vegan biscuit with sweet potato coconut gravy was heaven. My partner got a real Biscuit with pork sausage gravy and scrambled eggs. He said everything was perfect! We made sure to get a bottle of the "cat scratch" hot sauce to-go. Friendly staff. Cafe style service. Quirky and creative environment with hipster cats on the bathroom wall. Overall, an Asheville staple for good reason! read more

Glad they follow their own rules and kick people out of tables without numbers because it was the only way our group could sit together!

The Fried Green Tomato Biscuit was great. I would recommend it. One of my eggs was a little too cooked, but I understand that it happens sometimes. The other one was perfectly poached. I also ordered the pork sausage gravy and it was good too. I would give it a 3.5. There were chunks of sausage in it. For a drink, I got their Lavender Honey Latte. It was more honey than lavender and a little too sweet for my liking but if you like coffee on the sweeter side, I'd recommend it! Their house made jams are also super delicious!! read more

I was very excited to try this place and whew super overrated. Got the mimosa chicken biscuit. Came with a chicken thigh (I expected a breast and the menu does not specify this is a dark meat sandwich) which was cold and tough to even cut with a fork and knife. Ruined the whole sandwich for me. Slaw was good. Egg was good. The chicken is the star of the show here and it flopped for me. It was slow so maybe food quality goes down in off times. read more
