I keep meaning to branch out to different items like their sweet biscuits or potato wedges but love their classics so much I just keep getting my faves. This is the type of place where you have to make sure you have time because they have a small staff and make everything with lots of care -- but the wait is worth it. The employees will bring your order right to your car when it's ready (if you don't want to wait at the window.) The Buck is one of my favorites. It has strawberry jelly and peppery cheese and is scrumptious. Often I like to eat it right away in the car, but it's wrapped in a foil later and does keep well if I go home. A very unique spot unlike anything in Syracuse and I'd recommend stopping by to try at least once -- even if you're not vegan or vegetarian! read more

Wow! What an awesome place! I've been wanting to try this for breakfast for a while now after hearing such great things and I'm so glad I did! I really like that everything is vegan as someone who used to be vegan I think it's great to have some options around Syracuse. My coffee was AMAZING! Some of the best coffee i've had in a long time and I can't wait to try some other coffees on their menu. I really want to try their strawberry milk cold brew but they were out today. I tried the rambler and it is huge, filling, smells so good, and tastes even better! I'm not a huge fan of the fake bacon but again, it's great to have a spot with vegan options. Everyone who works here is amazing as well! You order at the window and they come out and deliver it to your car. Today was a cold snowy day, with snow banks taking over the sidewalks and they are all still out here delivering down the street right up until close. I told the man who brought the food to my car how amazing he is and he said I was amazing for coming out - such a great attitude as well! I will definitely be coming back! read more

What an incredible find in Syracuse! Nice Biscuit is a game-changer; as someone who isn't a breakfast person this proves that breakfast comfort food can be completely plant-based and absolutely delicious. We ordered a spread, and everything exceeded expectations: The Food The Wrangler (No Egg/Cheese): Even customized, this sandwich was amazing. The biscuit was fresh, perfectly cooked, and massive. The star, though, was the accompanying chipotle sauce... it was smoky, spicy, and super flavorful. A truly satisfying bite! Classic Biscuits and Gravy: The gravy was rich and incredibly flavorful. I especially appreciated that for a to-go order, they package the gravy separately. The biscuit underneath was huge, fluffy, and the ideal foundation for a filling breakfast. Potato Wedges: Be warned!! The portion size for a side of wedges is HUGE! Two of us split one order and still had leftovers. Everything you want in a wedge- crispy, salty, and soft on the inside. The Drinks Cold Brew: They use Recess Coffee cold brew, which is a tried-and-true favorite. Vanilla Bean Latte: This was next level! The latte was elevated by their house-made vanilla syrup. Be on the lookout for their other seasonal lattes. Overall Not only are the biscuits perfectly cooked and generously sized, but the entire menu is 100% vegan, which is fantastic. The care taken with the flavors (especially the sauces and syrups) really shines through. If you're looking for a hearty, high-quality, and delicious breakfast in Syracuse--vegan or not--you need to stop here! read more

Finally made it to Nice Biscuit! It's an adorable little storefront where they take your order at the window. I got there 15 to close and it was BUSY, and understandably so after trying their biscuit sandwich and latte. First, let me say I am NOT vegan or even vegetarian for that matter. With that said, you'd never know their menu items are if you were blind taste testing. I got one of their special item biscuits that had egg, Cajun sauce, and sweet jalapenos along with their molasses latte. Together I paid just under $20. The latte was such a treat, delightful from start to finish and the biscuit was tasty and filling! If you're ever in the area, this is definitely worth the stop, vegan or not! read more

Sometimes when you have an amazing meal, the memory makes any time after lackluster. Nice Biscuit is the exception to the rule: she gets better every time! Visiting from Rochester and Nice Biscuit is THE reason we make an actual day trip out of Syracuse. We ordered ahead to ensure we would have exactly what we wanted and nothing would be out of stock. We were greeted at the window with a smile and an "enjoy the great food!" We got to our car and dove in. The Chicky Baby is out of this world (shout out for including wet naps!). The tofu is crunchy but doesn't taste like fry oil, I have NO idea how a vegan biscuit can be so flaky, and adding the cowboy candy really set it over the top. Pistachio cold brew is not too sweet and just the right balance of chocolate and pistachio. The sweetie bun was a spur of the moment addition and it did NOT disappoint. The lemon is zingy, the pistachio is divine, and the sweet dough melted in your mouth. Already dreaming/drooling about my next visit!!! read more

Friendly staff churning out a great product. Highly recommend! I had the wrangler and scarfed it down. I also had a chocolate pistachio cold brew, which was delicious. I look forward to my next visit so I can try the chicken. read more

I have been enjoying the chicky baby sandwich for years! The only thing that limits me (slightly) that it's not close to where I live or work. Originally they wouldn't deliver to my house (only my work) and now I can get it in both places. There is no inside seating at the window just a couple tables outside and they also offer curbside. They are very nice when you call to order pickup too (even if you are a couple minutes after 1pm closing time). Delicious food! Friendly folks! Highly recommend. read more

Walk up window only! Though, the staff was very kind when I accidentally walked in! If you are biscuit obsessed, like myself, you've got to try Nice Biscuit. The quality and care is evident. The sandwiches are fantastic, no matter your eating preferences. P.S. get a donut du jour with your order, you won't regret it!! read more

Brick and mortar spot. Only a window to order from. But let me tell you I'm not a vegan and it's good. My sister is a vegan. But if I don't take her when she is here it's an issue. We literally went during a blizzard and they were super courteous and brought the food out the car in the blizzard. But as I work through the menu while my sister is here. I can't say I dislike it because it's not meat; it's just as delicious. read more

Boy do I miss being down south. I was thinking these biscuits were going to be all that. Nope,the biscuits were very very salty .They had no grape jam or jelly. At least the wait wasn't long. This was my second time going hoping it would be better. I don't recommend for my family. read more

Love this place when passing through Syracuse. Biscuits are always so fresh and taste amazing. Love the spicy strawberry. The people are always so nice and helpful. And it's a cute location with the walk up and they offer to take it out to your car. Highly recommended and will continue to return on my drive through Syracuse read more

The biscuits here were really good. It's just a window with no sit down area. FYI. The staff was friendly and helpful. They bring the food out to your car. I would definitely go back and try more food read more

A friend of mine who eats meat recommended this place. I only eat biscuits like once a year because I try to eat healthy but I thought we are going to Green Lake State Park. I thought let's stop by. Most vegetarian and vegan stuff is just two healthy tasting for the average person so I knew this would probably be a nice rich treat. It was delicious. I got the chicken sandwich and it was really good. The only thing is it was a little too sweet for me so next time I would just have them skip the sauce. That's a matter of preference. My daughter got an egg and bacon sandwich on a biscuit and she also felt it was a little bit too sweet. She could do the same thing, cut the sauce down. My husband got a chorizo and egg and loved it. Okay. We also got oat milk molasses lattes and they were delicious. They were really friendly and they were very busy. I will be back! read more

Truly a hidden gem. This is a great little spot where you walk up to the order window, place your order, and wait in your car (at least in the winter)! The person who took our order graciously brought our items to the car. We each got a sandwich. Mine was The Buck - so cutely wrapped and each sandwich has its own little sticker to go with it. The biscuits were fantastic, not too dry, there was a nice amount of spice and I really wouldn't have known that the egg and cheese parts are vegan! We also had a cookie butter donut which was incredible. Will absolutely be back and I'm excited to show this spot to my out-of-town friends. read more

Food is actually AMAZING so filling and comforting. The sandwiches are huge i had to unlock my jaw to bite into it in the best way? Had the chicky baby with honey butter, fried jalapeños and bacon add on and the apple latte! Usually skeptical going to new vegan places but they impressed for sure. Such nice staff too would definitely make the trip again read more

Nice biscuit looked gold on Yelp and it didn't disappoint on a Sat am. You pull up (street parking, there was plenty) go to a window and place your order for a yum vegan breakfast sandwich. You get a choice of cheese and sauce. My husband and I both choose the sandwich with a maple "sausage" and "egg" can't remember the name but I had "cheddar" and strawberry jam and he got "pepper jack" no sauce then we shared the potatoes (homemade thick fries) we drove over to a ShopRite that had a Starby and got iced teas and settled in to our car to enjoy the yum. The sandwich is a thick boi and I couldn't finish mine he devoured his and the "sausage" had a great fennel flavor while the "eggs" to me tasted a bit mustardy. We would hit it up again for sure on a return trip to Syracuse. The biscuits are stellar! read more

A morning breakfast in May inspired Evan Furey to create and become co-owner of NICE Biscuit. Waking up earlier than usual one day, he created a vegan sausage and biscuit meal for him and his girlfriend, Cristen Crew. As they ate, they started to dream about giving Syracuse a biscuit-based business with a Southern influence. By dinnertime the idea turned into a full fledged plan with business name and the beginnings of a logo. Furey said the goal of NICE Biscuit was to deliver hot breakfast, smiles, and comfort to people working hard from home during unprecedented and uncertain times. Furey is no stranger to the food business after working in restaurants for over 16 years and being a co-owner of a food truck in Austin, Texas. Two weeks after that fateful plate of biscuits and gravy, the couple launched their online presence on Instagram @nicebiscuitsyr and teased their upcoming business to gain followers and opened the following June. Now I'll admit...I didn't realize this was a vegan place when I went. Had I, being a meat eater, I may not have gone. I was looking for a new place to grab some breakfast on a rare weekday off between appointments and their menu looked amazing, so I went. I also didn't realize it was walk up only. Clearly, I did not do my homework on this one. But, the person who took my order was very friendly and told me she'd bring my order to my car when it was ready. It did take a bit, 15-20 minutes before I got my order, but a wait is never a problem for me when it comes to fresh food being made. I ordered The Wrangler, a vegan chorizo patty with American cheese, vegan egg, and spicy chipotle sauce on a biscuit along with a side of their potato wedges that come with their homemade DANG sauce. It came to about $17 for the order. I enjoyed the sandwich. The vegan chorizo had good flavor, but I didn't love the texture, but that's simply the nature of most vegan meat replacements. The fresh made biscuit was delicious, soft and fluffy but also substantial enough to keep the sandwich together. The sauce was alright but I definitely could've used more of it on the sandwich. The star for me though was the potato wedges. Holy frick, the wedges. They have to be the best potato wedges I've ever tasted in my life. They were PERFECTLY cooked, had amazing flavor, and I dunno what's in the DANG sauce, but I could drink it. It was delicious and I'd honestly go back just for the wedges. Overall, I enjoyed the meal even though a vegan meal was something different for me and I'd recommend everyone give it a try. read more

You order from a window at the front of the building which is quite efficient! A staff member brought out our food and the service was very friendly. I got the Rambler and realized that the bacon was quite smoky and the creamy Chipotle sauce I got on it was quite sweet which I'm not a huge fan of. I know lots of people love smoky and sweet though so I would highly recommend the Rambler to you if that's your thing. My mother got a iced molasses latte which was delicious!! We got half the amount molasses and it was the perfect amount of sweetness. My father got the same but hot and I think it was even better! I got a Berry Me Latte which was delicious! read more

We have wanted to come here for awhile. It exceeded our expectations. They were out of chix today so we can't comment on that, but the biscuits, potato wedges, and especially the 'sausage egg' sandwich were outstanding and very filling. The coffee is Recess and they deliver your order to your car! We just wish it was closer. read more

Love those biscuits! Can't tell they're vegan, which is helpful when trying to convince non-vegans there's great plant-based food out there. I've only been there a couple of times, since I live an hour away, but try to make a point to go if I'm in the area at the right time of day. Give them a try; you won't be sorry! read more

Definitely a must to come here!!!! The biscuits remind me of being in the South at a granny's house. They're so fresh, warm, buttery, and soft on the inside with the perfect crisp on the outside. Whew. All vegan too! The ordering is pick up only so it is not a sit down and eat type of place. I ordered online and picked up at like a window outside. Super convenient. read more

I discovered Nice Biscuit based on a friends recommendation for their buttermilk biscuits. I ordered some at the time they delivered everything you ordered. They arrived warm and were so good. The jams that came with them also really good. I've had their biscones as well as several of their treats they make. Everything has been delicious. I used to bake professionally and have had many different biscuits, scones etc the baked goods from Nice Biscuit never disappoint. This cinna stack is delightful! Get them when they have them available. Trust me you will like it! read more

I'm just going to come right out & say it- Nice Biscuit had one of the very best I have ever had. We decided to try one sweet & one savory so we got the Sweet Nellie- which was filled with mixed berry jam & dusted with powdered sugar- & the biscuits & gravy. Wow- the biscuits were huge & very fresh. There was just enough of the mixed berry jam ratio to the Sweet Nellie. The country 'sausage' gravy was some of the tastiest gravy that I've had in a very long time. Oh- did I forget to mention that everything is 100% vegan?! Bravo Nice Biscuit. You earned yourself some return customers. read more

Good: It's delicious, and satisfying. Everything tastes right, and better than many non-vegan versions. They were friendly, thoughtful, and helpful. I'll definitely eat here again. Improve: $30 for 2 entrees and a cold brew. It took about 30 min to get, and you have to sit in your car. read more

I'm so glad I finally got to try nice biscuit! This was a huge biscuit so definitely worth the $10. I got the Buck which was delicious, it could have been spicier for me but still had a good zing and the jalapeño sausage has a great smoky flavor to it. If you told me this was vegan I wouldn't have believed you, none of the vegan substitutes had weird textures or tastes - this was really just a delicious biscuit. You walk up to the window to order and they bring your order right out to your car, there's street parking out front and parking on the side. The google page said they were closed so I called to make sure they were open and they picked up right away, great service in addition to yummy biscuits. Would definitely come back here. read more

Places like this are the reason I'm always paying such close attention to the stores and restaurants I pass. Nobody's ever mentioned this place, nor has it come up on searches. One day I'm picking up a pizza from the place next door and I see "Nice Biscuit" a few doors down. Biscuits are hugely underrated and annoyingly hard to come by in upstate New York, so it felt like a huge win when I Googled the name and confirmed it was a real place. I'm not vegan myself, but it makes literally no difference in the taste or quality of the food. I'm not sure I'd have even guessed they were vegan. Vegan alternatives for meat, cheese and eggs have really come a long way over the last decade. Whenever I come here, I order online. The wait time can be long, so I'll usually order from home before starting my day and then make it my first stop. Everything's done through the order window out front, so if the food's not ready they'll run it out to your car. Before finding this place, the only viable option for biscuits was just wherever they sell fried chicken, Cracker Barrel, any place that's supposed to resemble the south I guess. Bakeries, stores and restaurants tend to skip right over them around here, at least in my experience. So right off the bat, now we have a locally owned go to for biscuits, and they are the absolute best. They're huge, sturdy, moist, hearty, and absolutely delicious. Check out their menu regularly online. They routinely add things to their menu as weekly specials that you'd be upset you missed. At this point I've tried most of their regular menu. Whether you're looking for sweet or savory, you've got some solid choices. I absolutely recommend adding fried jalapenos when available. Hands down, I think their best item is the Chicky Baby. I don't understand the logistics of vegan meat substitutes, or how you could emulate a southern style chicken sandwich without the main ingredient. Doesn't matter. Every kitchen in town has thrown down their best shot at this sandwich over the last few years and this one just might be the best of them all. There's that specific hit of dopamine you get when you take the first bite and the gears start turning in your brain. Holy crap, this is no joke. I absolutely can't recommend this sandwich enough. The sausage gravy might be the only thing I wasn't specifically crazy about. I thought it was pretty bland and by the end I was just eating the biscuits without it. The Wrangler is another great sandwich. Definitely recommend the fried jalapenos to give it the extra flavor, but between the chorizo and the jalapeno, make sure you're prepared for the blast of acidity. On the sweet side, you can't go wrong with the Hunny Bun. Like their biscuits, it's a dense, hearty base, but that's fine because look how hard they frosted it. And yes, the icing is as rich as you're hoping it is. Looking now, it looks like they took the iced biscuits off the menu? They were like the Nice Biscuit version of Munchkins, but they were so satisfying, and you got so many more in that little bag than you were expecting. I hope to see them return to the menu! So far, I've only been here for immediate meals. I'd love to pick up a half dozen and some spreads, but $19 is a tough buy for biscuits. At some point there will be a moment of celebration or a call to treat myself, and this is on the list. They are open Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I've never seen a place with those days on and off. I can't count how many times I thought to come here only to realize it's a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday long after I've committed to the idea. Lastly, they tend to run out of supplies as they approach closing. They're very good about updating their website menu, so you'll see not just "Out of Stock" but things like "3 left". The earlier you get your order in, the better the odds you won't miss out on something. read more

Nice Biscuit - Chicky Baby (8.5/10); HUGE biscuit sandwich! Very filling! - Vegan Near Me - Syracuse, New York

This review is for a takeout order. I had the chicky baby and plain biscuits with a side of hunny butter. The biscuits were on point, moist, just the right amount of flaky and flavorful. Remarkably the biscuits kept well left for the next day (out of the fridge). The faux chicken part of the sandwich was also good and paired well with the slightly sweet pickles and hunny mustard. Nicely done. I only wish this place was closer to where I live. read more

Was staying at an Airbnb around the corner, when I woke up I typed in "breakfast near me" before I hit the road and this joint popped up. I went there and ordered a couple items, all of which were amazing, and it is in no small part to their biscuit. Wow. I love a good biscuit and they delivered - they chose their name wisely. read more

The staff were friendly, the service was great. I will say the biscuit sandwiches are a bit on the pricey side given all you get is the biscuit sandwich. I would recommend getting a few biscuits to try with the spreads if you are in the mood for biscuits and do not want to cook any as they are good and decently priced in my opinion. read more

I tried the Chicky Baby and The Buck. The biscuit itself is has a decent flavor but it is VERY dense and a tad bit dry - also was falling apart and a little hard to eat. Because the biscuit is so big and dense, I could have used A LOT more jam than what was provided on the Buck which I think would have helped a lot. The patty was also quite salty! The chicken on the chicky baby was a little dry as well. read more

There is a sandwich I like the least of all of them but it's not because it's nasty but because it just isn't as good to me as compared tkthe others. I fully recommend Nice Biscuit and make sure you add their wedges to whatever else you buy. -A read more
