Gotta love a neighborhood coffee shop! Wish I lived nearby or else I'd come all the time! Was there to try the coffee but ended up getting a few mini biscuits. They were buttery and not dense at all. Really loved the scallion and cheddar one! Definitely the selling point to coming back! I tried the honey bee latte I think was what it was called? Not the type of drink you see at other coffee shops around here. Classic! And the staff were really nice. Didn't seem rushed. Just very neighborly. Even brought my latte to me! A good number of parking spots next to it. I'd come back again for the biscuits!! read more

We're traveling through and wanted to try a local spot. This caught our attention because it has high reviews and who doesn't love a biscuit? We ordered online since we wanted to pick up and get back on the road asap. They charge a 3% credit card convenience fee. Minus 3 stars (one for each % they charge) for that because it's a cost of doing business and they should have the costs of doing business built into the price of the menu items. Their online order form does not state that they only have certain menu items on the weekends. It's also very unclear whether when you order a coffee, it's a black coffee or you can have it made to order (no place to customize on their website). They use Toast which is a pretty lazy way of doing an online menu unless the business is willing to customize the menu to make it user friendly - this business did not. So we ordered a cinnamon roll only to be told at pickup that it's only available on weekends. When we asked for a refund, we were told we'd have to get it through Toast. No info on how to do that. No information about who to contact. Just an older lady with an indifferent attitude. Minus one star for that. The sandwiches were dry as a bone - the bottom of the biscuit was actually chewy from being overcooked. The eggs were definitely overcooked with a telltale gray ring around the yolk. We're disappointed and wish we had just stopped at Starbucks instead. read more

Such a cute little spot tucked away on Goodale. Have driven past it so many times and finally made my way today. They have a good sized food menu ranging from a feature sammich and quiche, but also have biscuits + gravy, hashbrowns, etc. I opted for the feature sammich (today was sausage, egg, goat cheese and berry compote). I definitely picked a good day to go because that flavor profile is right up my alley, and it did not disappoint! I also got their honeybee latte which has honey and cinnamon. Super tasty. Sat inside to enjoy the ambiance and savor my delicious breakfast Sammie + latte. They have cute games and coloring books and books to borrow as well, which is a nice touch. Hours currently are limited (closed at noon today) but saw on their IG that their hours will be extended come February! Stop in and grab yourself a biscuit and and coffee sometime!! read more

Full disclosure... I am biased to bee-themed things but this place is just SO CUTE. For a smaller spot, they still managed to have some soft seating, a L-shaped bar along the windows, and tables. All without making it feel cramped. The service was amazing. The lady at the counter was very sweet and friendly. Before we get into food, I also wanted to call out the self service coffee bar that has a huge assortment of syrups, milk and alt milk options, and hot tea. All for the price of the coffee which is only $4. I got their featured biscuit sandwich which was sausage egg and cheddar on a cheddar biscuit. Delicious. I also got 3 mini biscuits- plain, white cheddar and blueberry. All amazing. Overall - so glad I decided to try this restaurant!! Would highly recommend. read more

Stopped by on a weekday morning before work to pick up a breakfast sandwich. While I was there I grabbed 3 mini biscuits to try too. The breakfast sandwich was good, but nothing I found special. The biscuit on the sandwich kinda tasted like one from chick fil a to be honest but cost $6.75. I wish they had different options for the biscuit flavor on the sandwiches. The mini biscuits are fun and there's lot of flavors, but for the price and very small size of them, I wish I got more for $4.25. They are one bite. I don't see myself coming back with a lot of the other breakfast places in the area. read more

Driving back into Columbus and was really craving a good breakfast biscuit, this was on the way so decided to check it out. Order at the counter. I got a bacon egg and cheese and an OJ. The biscuit was delicious, although a bit on the small side. The OJ and biscuit came to $11. The meal definitely hit the spot, I would stop by again. read more

I have wanted to stop in for a while and am glad I did.... If you are looking for a great local spot for a reasonably priced breakfast sammy and coffee, look no further. Located just outside Grandview Heights, this place is very charming and has great service. Everything is made fresh. Biscuits were delicious and the sammy was satisfying. I got the egg, cheese, and sausage on a regular biscuit and really enjoyed it. We also got the special of the day with a jalapeño biscuit. It was very good and left you with a little zing. They also serve Stauf's coffee which I feel is one of the best in the city. Cute little area in the shop for eating or you can eat outside in a nice area. They even have a fire pit. I am sure you will be happy if you give them a try. read more

Small biscuit company that specializes in fresh made biscuits in different flavors and sizes. Parking is easy as they have private side lot that is pretty big. They sell Stauffs Coffee. While we were there they offered three types of biscuit sandwiches: Egg/cheese, egg/cheese/bacon, egg/cheese/sausage. We found staff to be very welcoming and friendly. They also do sandwiches on their specialty biscuits. Today they had jalepeno biscuit variety, so we had them make a jalepeno biscuit with egg/bacon. We also purchased a regular biscuit with egg/sausage. Both were great. The original biscuit held up better against then steam of the egg. Sausage had great flavor. The jalapeño biscuit was a tiny bit soggy. My guess is that was due to the fresh jalapeño in the biscuit. When it heats up it releases steam which changed the constancy of the biscuit, but still the biscuit had great flavor that lingered on the tastebuds For a small corner shop, it had lots of seating inside and out. What a nice addition to the Columbus culinary scene! We will be back!! read more

Basic is in the name, and that's the only thing they lived up to! Came here from a friends recommendation and had to disown them after visiting this place. I tried several biscuits, a sausage egg and cheese biscuit sandwich, cold brew, and tea. All were absolutely disgusting. Breakfast sandwich was pre-made (soggy biscuit, overcooked sausage and egg, and tiny), flavored biscuits had no flavor lest a small coating on outsides, and the coffee/tea was self-serve.. Staufs (so hard to mess up), but just ok, but not a lot of customization for almost $6.. overall I think I spent $35 for 2 people and threw half of it away sadly. Honestly the worst place I've been in a really long time. I understand now why the parking lot was empty. Sorry for the harsh review, but truly terrible 0/10 read more

The Hive Coffee & Cafe - Sausage, Egg, & Cheese Biscuit Sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

The space is cute for a grab and go breakfast, which is definitely what you're getting here as the sandwiches are premade/wrapped and under a heat lamp. Surprisingly, they do keep their integrity though the eggs are excruciatingly bland and opening the biscuit to salt/pepper/sauce it is very difficult. The biscuits are good, probably the best I've had in Columbus or very close to it. Ultimately, i won't be returning because the woman (whom I presume to be the owner after reading more reviews) was not, in fact, very kind in our interaction. Maybe it was an off day or hour, but to have kindness in your name and have a customer leave feeling like they were more of a burden than an actual guest does not portray kindness to me. read more

Such a fun spot. It was super clean and bright and cheerful. Probably I would go earlier next time because they were already running out of things. But we thoroughly enjoyed all of the biscuits and coffee. The jalapeño cheese and peach biscuits were our faves. read more

Generous 3 stars. More like 2.5 but I feel generous today. Sausage and cheddar biscuit was good. But to pay $6.75 for this was pretty ridiculous.Like about $3 overpriced ridiculous. And a tiny thin hash brown for $2.25 Both very small for $9.00. Better to stick with McDonalds or Tim Hortons. read more

Off my usual path, but I was going nearby today and it sounded good. And it was good. Excellent. I got sausage gravy and biscuits. I love them, and I make them myself. And these are as good as mine. Rich gravy, chock-full of sausage, and you choose the biscuits. They are mini biscuits, and I chose an assortment of their savory ones. Cheddar scallion, everything bagel, etc. The biscuits were perfect little chunks of lusciousness. I tried a bite of each before dousing them, and they were flaky and flavorful. The sausage over top of them was amazing. Good coffee, good service, good prices. Nice little place with seating inside and out. Couple parking spots out front, and I think a few others nearby. I should've grabbed some sweet biscuits, but I had to get going. Guess I'll have to come back. read more

The biscuits are tasty! I will come back for biscuits. We ordered the feature sammy and the quiche. Taste: Quiche - won't order again. It was a texture for quiche that I am not familiar with and do not enjoy. It was like mild egg custard with little flavor impact. Feature sandwhich- tasty indeed Service - great service and friendly people Environment- they obviously do not want you to hang out. It's a cherry take out place. Price - not a price performer Quiche - in line with what I'd expect to pay for quiche. Feature sandwhich- this is much too small for $7.50. This is a $5 breakfast sammy at most. *disclaimer* I'm an old fogey in my 40's and maybe inflation is just that real? Dunno. Overall- I will definitely go back for the biscuits of many flavors! I will not go back for a more solid meal. read more

Biscuits are trending in Columbus. Whether it's a stand alone business like this one or a restaurant known for having good ones, I've been seeing them and eating them everywhere. This Woman-owned bakery offers biscuits of all shapes and sizes. Ranging from full on breakfast sandwiches to mini biscuits, all are packed with flavor and a lot have a fun twist. The lemon lavender was my favorite and I really enjoyed the cheddar jalapeno. I opted to get 12 little ones and even froze a few to last longer. Once thawed out they were as yummy as the day I picked them up. The space itself is a breath of fresh air. The theme is obviously bees and kindness, which can be seen in every nook and cranny of the bakery. They offer other locally made items and even have Stauf's coffee available. They have plenty of parking with a lot right next door and some street parking out front. It's hard to miss their neon biscuit sign so keep your eyes peeled for that once you get close. Support local. Support Women-owned businesses, and most of all, spread kindness... while chowing down on biscuits, of course! read more

First tried this business thanks to Yelp and enjoyed it so much. This morning I woke up with a craving, threw on some clothes and out the door I went. They were out of my favorites (everything bagel and cheddar jalapeño) but got to try some new ones. I picked up a bakers dozen and headed home to surprise my partner for a fun little biscuit breakfast. I recommend microwaving for about 10 seconds, tear them open, and add a little butter (depending on the flavor). It is so worth the drive across downtown from Olde Towne East (10-12 mins away). They also have a frequent purchase card where you by 12 bakers dozens and get one on the house. I think that's it! I left my punch card in the car for the next trip. These biscuits are so yummy and totally recommend. read more

The first thing you'll notice when you stroll in to this boutique breakfast oasis is the smell of fresh baked goods. You'll see some photos accompanying my review but you'll find a coffee/tea/cider station for quick grab and go liquid refreshment to start the fat, and a variety of mini biscuits, pie and other treats to warm & fill the belly! I tried the Cheddar Jalapeño, Gurl Scout Cookie, and an Asiago Herb flavored mini biscuits. Deeeeeelicious. The Girl Scout flavor does not appear to be made from actual Girl Scouts, lol, but does taste mildly like a thin mint! Oh yes, and there is an ample free parking lot next to the building, which was very busy with patrons this morning!!! As of January 2022, this location has been operating in the Grandview Heights area for about a year and a half & the staff are right at home. Super friendly folks who, when I asked them for their recommendations on mini biscuits were not just full of offering suggestions but also helpful with conversation about what flavors and tastes that I enjoy. This was very helpful in making selections! Brightly lit and charmingly decorated inside, with space to sit, for warmer months there is a patio in the front along Goodale Blvd, which facing south catches the sun all day! When the snow is gone, there are patio warming stations available too! My verdict is yummmm!!!! I'll surely be back for another visit! read more

The best fluffy flakey biscuit ever!! And a cute little shop with friendly staff. Can't wait to try more things from them in the future.

I love biscuits, so I was really exited to try this place. Plus I read up on reviews and pretty much all the reviews indicated good food and great customer service. And the reviews did not disappoint. I ordered the biscuits, jalapeno cheddar, scallion cheddar, and the banana chocolate. All of them were great but the Jalapeno cheddar was definitely the best! I also ended up ordering a Quiche, and it did not disappoint. it was delicious. The only thing I regret was not getting everything double. I can't wait to go back. The food was great, the customer service was great. The person at register was very friendly and very patient with us, because we couldn't decided on what to order. Its a cute little place and there are outdoor seating for a warmer days. read more

I've been eyeing this super adorable store for a while now on Yelp and finally stopped over on the way home to try some biscuits! I ended up getting three savory and three sweet biscuits, so here are the highlights: The cheddar garlic and Asiago thyme were definitely favorites. The former had a good amount of flaky fluffiness from the cheddar and just enough garlic. The Asiago had lots of flavor packed into its mini biscuit existence and a good amount of spiciness. The lemon lavender also deserves a shoutout - if you're a fan of floral flavors, the lavender is very pronounced! The other three I got were the cheddar scallion, bacon chocolate chip, and mixed berry. All three were great biscuits too! read more

Super cute spot with good breakfast options and gorgeous outdoor seating. You'd think "biscuits" as a stand-alone concept would be boring, but I was really impressed with the variety of flavors they had, and everything I got was good. I especially liked the breakfast slider and the vanilla bean mini biscuit - everything worked well together in the slider and the biscuit was super vanilla-y. The coffee is Stauf's, so obviously it's good. Minus half a star for powdered coffee creamer, plus half a star for coming up with a brand concept and sticking to it I'll definitely go back when I have the chance. read more

If you've seen the pictures you may be thinking, "damn those biscuits are small." And they are. I was a little annoyed at first, but the price wasn't so bad. I got bacon, egg and cheese and the special which was some sausage, cheddar, scallion and egg. First glance, looked damn tasty but was concerned I wasn't going to be full. Oh, I was wrong. These biscuits are HEAVY. First bite, punch in the mouth flavor from the special. Tons of flavor, thick gooey American cheese, egg cooked perfectly just on the verge of runny but not, scallions great, but THE DAMN BISCUIT stole the show. When you get to the middle of the biscuit it just dissolves in your mouth to form this gooey, salty cheesy delicious mixture I have no idea what to call. But you want it. Yes you do. Don't argue with me. The bacon, egg and cheese also delicious, but it's details are about the same as the special. Bacon nice thick cut plenty of flavor. Now, the cinnamon roll. No...THE MF CINNAMON ROLL! Easily top 3 I've ever had. The frosting was very sweet, but it's doesn't drench the roll so it's not overwhelming. The inside was nice and moist, tons of cinnamon coming through. I was told by the cashier they normally sell out by 930 and I know she wasn't lying. It's four hours later and I am STILL on my ass recovering from what seems like a small quick bite, but what actually was a delicious anvil that's still sitting in my stomach. read more

This is a cute little shop located on Goodale not far from the sports park. It has a very nice little outdoor patio area and a small seating area inside. My eyes, however, were immediately drawn to the glass case of goodies, as I was eager to discover what flavors of the day could be mine! There were quite a selection of mini biscuits, including both savory (cheddar scallion, cheddar garlic, cheddar jalapeno, sharp white cheddar, etc) and sweet (cinnamon sugar, peach). Near the top were some amazing specialty options: flavors inspired by the big three Girl Scout Cookies! I ended up with a dozen (I mean, how could I not?!): 2 each peach, cinnamon sugar, cheddar jalapeno, cheddar scallion, chocolate peanut butter, and chocolate mint. The biscuits were tender, flaky, and packed with their respective flavors. They were delicious! Other options include hot breakfast sliders (egg, cheese, option to add bacon/sausage) and PB&Js on biscuits, hot beverages, quiche, and such. Yum! The staff was friendly and helpful, even bagging up the chocolate biscuits separately. read more

Okay, I was fortunate enough to acquire a biscuit from this place finally. Every time I came here, they were out of them, and I would go early (not too early) in the morning to try to get something. Well, call me Charlie because I got my Golden Ticket at last. Basic Biscuits, kindness, and coffee is a rather quaint establishment. It almost gives off a hipster vibe, and it's spotless, which is a must for these days and times. I was greeted very enthusiastically by the attendant at the counter as she went through all the flavors they had available that day which seemed to be all of them. I was so beside myself that I didn't know where to start. The counter attendant acted as a biscuit sommelier and tried to gauge what would be best for me to have based on which way my palette was swinging toward. She went through all the savory options, then the sweet, and finally a combination of the two with in-depth descriptions. After my biscuit consultation, I ended up walking out of them with 16 biscuits. I must say that the tag-along, Samoas, cinnamon and sugar, vanilla bean, and bacon chocolate chip were my favorites. I was expecting a light, fluffy biscuit, but what I got when I bit into my first nugget of buttery confection was a dense texture reminiscent of that of a scone but not as hard. If you get a biscuit from here, it pairs well with your favorite Milk, coffee beverage, or hot chocolate. read more

This place has a great neighborhood vibe! I walked here with a couple friends for a breakfast date and had a great time. The workers are friendly and welcoming. They always have a daily special on top of their regular biscuits and sandwiches. They have good coffee from crimson cup with multiple options for creamers. Since I was last here, I was excited to see they've even added beer and canned bloody Mary's! They've also added more seating outside. May be better to enjoy as spring comes along, although they do have a firepit and some heaters. I had the special of the day, the taco biscuit sandwich, which had chorizo egg and pepper jack I believe on a jalapeño biscuit? I can't remember for sure but I do remember it was delicious!! My only gripe is that the biscuits aren't cheap or large. especially if you need a lot to fill up like my husband, you might be breaking the bank a little. read more

What a cute lil spot! Stopped by here around 11:30 during my lunch for a Yelp elite event and was able to pick up 3 biscuits and coffee. I added 3 more (because there were so many good sounding flavors I had to try) as well as the quiche of the day. Great energy as soon as you walk in... the staff was so friendly! For biscuits I tried buttermilk, cheddar garlic, cinnamon sugar, samoa, and one other I can't remember. I really loved them all, including the sweet ones since they still maintained a nice savory-ness and weren't overly sweet. The quiche was a spinach, garlic and cheddar and was so tasty. The crust was amazing. I definitely have to come back to try the jalapeño cheddar (they were out). I should have expected this since I had heard this was definitely the way to try. Definitely suggest going early to get the best selection. read more

Oh my gosh, this place is so cute! I feel lucky to live so close. I'm a huge fan of small bites and variety and Basic biscuits, Kindness & Coffee delivers that! While I was there they had about 10 different mini biscuit flavors and I really wanted to try them all! What I like best about these biscuits is the texture. It doesn't get all gummy and stuck in your teeth. They have a light, bouncy texture but are still flaky. They also serve, breakfast sandwiches, coffee and hot tea. I think the mini biscuits would make a great gift or item to bring to a gathering! read more
