Cute place. Order and pay at the counter, grab a table, and they bring your order out to you. Super nice staff. During busy times they stop taking orders if there is no seating available. We were able to wait at the register (tapping our feet, watching for a departure) until someone got up to leave and then we could order, but the experience was weird. Like- can we eat here or not? Other guests behind us in the queue left. My biscuit arrived cold. Not sure if that was how it was supposed to be. They have a jam station with butter as well. You put those yummies in a little cup and bring it back to your table. Only problem is that the butter was hard as a rock- didn't work when you have a cold biscuit. Dishes around us looked tasty but as a purist, I found the texture, flavor, and temperature of the biscuit to be pretty meh. Energy at the place is good. Despite the seating thing at the beginning, I didn't feel pressure to leave while we sat at our table and enjoyed our coffee. Would go back but might order something to jazz up the biscuit and will watch our time of arrival given that it can get busy. read more

Just got into biscuits and sausage gravy, friends showed me how to make homemade gravy and I was hooked. First time trying BH. It was busy, staff very friendly. I thought the lien moved fast and food came out in a reasonable time. Plenty of Seating inside and out. Kinda pricey for breakfast for two, but the biscuits are the size of a cats head. read more

Biscuit Head - Biscuit & Gravy and Full Breakfast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Great place! So many options on the menu. I had fried green tomatoes, poached eggs, and whatever else came on that dish. Yum! My friend had sausage gravy, bisques & grits...she loved it. And my other friend had the breakfast scramble. He loved his dish. And then there is the jam and butter bar. I had so much going on with my meal. I didn't even go to try anything. But there are some really interesting jams and I really wanna go back. read more

Biscuit Head is a pretty well-known place in Asheville, in fact so much so there are three locations. I went to the one in Hendersonville and it was just as awesome as I hoped it would be. Of course it's busy and it's small and it's loud and that's to be expected. I placed my order for the fried green tomato biscuit and waited for my order. I expected it to take a super long time but it wasn't too bad. My food was so good and so filling. Everyone knows I'm a cat lover so I loved the cat theme. Also super cute that the number they bring to your table has pictures of cats that have been rescued. This is an easy yes! I will definitely return the next time I'm in town. read more

We ordered at the bar, and the server was so nice, I loved the table cards with cats on them. She suggested some a brown sugar or butter pecan latte. I went with pecan it was delicious. The place has cat images every where!! Because they make biscuits as big as a cat's head. The murals inside and out were delightful as well as all the framed pics of cats. It's casual, but cozy. read more

Service and ambiance worked out well as usual. I got the pulled pork biscuit, which is a biscuit (I chose GF) with pulled pork topped with a poached egg, bacon, and maple syrup, with the removal of jalapeño pimento cheese and the addition of home fries. The home fries were well-cooked but could have been a little saltier. The biscuit plate overall looked a mess, but the flavor made up for it. The sweetness from the syrup worked out better than I thought it would, but the egg was medium-poached and I thought it would be soft-poached. Overall, though, grateful for a not half bad pre-Thanksgiving brunch. read more

The food is really good & the staff has always been friendly when we have visited. Hats off to the cooks. The eggs are delicious, light, not over cooked & not greasy. There is a decent variety of home made jams, butter, coffees & drinks. The main attraction is the giant biscuits. They are fluffy & not dry. Parking in the area is difficult & tricky. If you don't get lucky enough to park right on the street, just do yourself a favor and pay the $5 to park in the lot behind the restaurant to avoid the frustration of finding parking. They are usually quite busy so it's not a place we have stayed too long to just relax and hang out. Recommend for everyone. read more

Great food! I've tried 4-5 different orders and they were all good. Very friendly and helpful people working there too.

Biscuit Head was outstanding. The service was quick, despite being a very popular place at a very popular time on New Year's Day. The food was simply incredible. Fresh squeezed orange juice, gourmet coffee, the best biscuit I have eaten in 60 years, and a flavorful homemade scramble made for the ultimate breakfast. If I lived in the Asheville area, this would become my favorite breakfast spot, hands-down. read more

This is the third Biscuit Head we have been to in Asheville and I think my favorite. The parking is a bit of a challenge but there is other places like street parking if you can't find anything in the lot in front. If you have not been to a Biscuit Head you can't get seating until you order and get a number. This is fine because you can find seating and like other locations it has some outdoor seating as well. I choose what I usually get which is the Filthy Animal, a fresh biscuit with egg, a fried chicken strip and bacon slices. This was covered in a shiitake gravy, a personal favorite gravy but they have other choices. They have a couple of different locally sourced coffees as well that are not grown here of course but roasted. The service is typically good but I thought they were even friendlier than the other locations as well. If you are are in Asheville then Biscuit Head is a must stop for breakfast. read more

Very nice staff. The biscuit could have been warmer to melt the butter but the gravy was so good and had a little bit of a kick. Casual laid back brunch spot with fun attentive staff who always were cleaning everything. Great find, plus free stickers! read more

First, I just want to start by saying Biscuit Head is 5/5 on flavor. I had to bump to 3 stars because I got glutened here. My husband ordered the gluten free vegan biscuit. I thought it looked better than usual and when I tried it I thought it tasted different (in a much better way) than when I'd had it before. Thankfully, I only took two bites. The next day we all went in together to sit for breakfast. My husband and I got the half breakfast plate with gluten free/vegan biscuits and our friend got the mimosa biscuit. Immediately, I noticed how different our biscuits looked from his and how my husband's gluten free biscuit from the day before looked nothing like what we now had and looked exactly like our friend's gluten biscuit. While I realize, biscuit head is not made for celiacs--it is a very big deal To give a customer who orders gluten free a regular gluten biscuit. With that being said, biscuit heads' biscuits are amazing (both the gluten free/vegan and the regular). Our friend loved his mimosa chicken biscuit and we ate here multiple times during our stay. I would still recommend them but be very cautious and double check if you are gluten free. read more

Oh no this is so disappointing we came here just a few years ago and it was the best biscuits ever. Today it was awful. They are dry and bisquick like. Barely any egg on the egg sandwich. Super disappointing because I brought all of my family here. read more

We were in town for a wedding and family had recommended Biscuit Head for breakfast and it did not disappoint! There was a larger group of us- the service was fast and very friendly. Between our group, we had the filthy animal biscuit, the Nutella and banana biscuit and regular breakfast meals. All the food was delicious and the coffee was fantastic!!! We had been on the hunt for a good cup of coffee all trip and were thrilled to finally get one! If you are in the area, this place is not to be missed! read more

I really wanted a biscuit with my breakfast and boy did this place have some good biscuits. They had a bar with all different jams and toppings you can pick from. I was very disappointed with my scrambled eggs as they were too well done for me (more like a burnt omelette). I'm glad somebody told me about this location as there was more parking and it was not as crowded as the location downtown. read more

The restaurant was so crowded that we had to sit in the window facing the street here the sun was so bright that it was difficult to see even with sunglasses on and there was no way to cover the window. The tables were so close together that you had to ask the person in the table next to you to move in so you could get out of your chair. It was so loud that you had to shout to be Heard by the person next to you. read more

I came here a long time ago when visiting the area and thought what I got was just ok but tried the biscuit and sausage gravy with a side of pulled pork and thought both were excellent. I have noticed other places in this area often skimp on the sausage in the gravy so I often order an extra sausage on the side but definitely not necessary here as they crumbled up at least 1 whole sausage just for my meal. Excellent, large fluffy biscuits, only finished 1 1/3. The pulled pork was very tender and flavorful. The small tables don't have a napkin dispenser and they don't bring any with your food so you need to grab from a larger table. read more

Biscuit Head - Biscuits with sausage gravy - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Came here for breakfast with friends and found some of the stuff we really liked and others were surprisingly bad. All in all am rating it that I like it because of the good stuff but I will tell you what I recommend you avoid and why. To be fair I'll add we were here on the Monday of a holiday weekend so I don't know if that caused anomalies or not. I ordered a 1/2 breakfast with scrambled eggs and country ham. It comes with a large biscuit and free run of the jelly bar. I also had an iced oat milk latte. Hubby ordered the Filthy Animal with pork sausage gravy and the house coffee. The biscuits and jam are the way to go here - delicious buttermilk biscuits and every jam I sampled was a winner, my favorite being the sour Cherry. The scrambled eggs and my iced latte were good too. The ham, well, it was frankly inedible. It was so incredibly salty compared to most other ham and certainly what I usually get called "country ham" which I am used to being more like a ham steak. This was thin sliced incredibly salty and slightly rancid ham. I ate two bites just to make sure I wasn't imagining how bad the first one was end then left the rest on my plate. I usually love ham, but this was just bad. Hubby liked most of his meal except the fried chicken in the biscuit. He didn't eat more than a bite of that either. And that man LOVES fried chicken. Did they have a meat freezer mishap? No idea. Neither of our friends had meat in their breakfast and I suspect that's why they are so fond of the place, if you stick to the biscuits, jam, fresh fruit you're going to be fine. I don't know if the meats are always so bad here but I probably won't risk trying again to find out - I absolutely would come back for the biscuits and jam though. read more

Ahhhh biscuit head.... Always consistent, never disappoints. Got my usual fried green tomato biscuit, it's one of the best things in the world. My husband always gets the filthy animal, and licks the plate clean. This is our third biscuit Head I think, a new location we haven't tried before. The restaurant is better than the others we've been to for seating and for room, so this is probably our favorite location. You can't come to Asheville and not come here. read more

Biscuithead is a neat place to try. The vibe is definitely trendy/hipster. The place was hopping today, very little seating left when we arrived at 9:40. The staff were friendly and helpful. I had the Filthy Animal with Sausage Gravy and my wife had the Biscuit and gravy with Sausage gravy and a side of bacon, both with gluten free biscuits. I thought the Filthy Animal was pretty good. The bacon, fried chicken, egg, and cheese on my biscuit were pretty good. We weren't blown away by the gravy. That's kind of a staple and it was a little strange to our taste. Also, the vegan/gluten free biscuit wasn't great. We've experimented with a lot of gluten free biscuit recipes at home and the ones we had here weren't much better than our home attempts. Overall: great service and friendly wait staff, good brewed coffee, but I don't know that I would pay what I paid today for what I got. Not sure if we'll be back. read more

Sloooooooooow. Food is OK, fun atmosphere, but who has 20 minutes at a walk up count wait for their food?

Three differ people recommended coming here while visiting and their recommendations lived up to the hype. Easy to order! Here are the food items we tried: Chicken biscuit- very juicy fried chicken Loaded potatoes-delicious Fried Green tomatoes-nice crunch but would have been amazing if they had a dipping sauce to go with it. Used their strawberry jam. Fruit cup-nice and fresh The filthy animal: Huge and delicious. Hubs loved it. Jam bar was great and loved that you can get as much coffee as you want while you eat. Great and filling place for breakfast! read more

I was again visiting my son & his wife near Asheville. The food scene in this town never disappoints. We went to Biscuit Head for a true southern experience. The place was packed, & as I glanced at the food plates on the tables near me, I'm pretty sure I drooled. I ordered the Fried Green Tomato biscuit. A plate with several pounds of food arrived, lol. It contained a large biscuit, fried green tomatoes, a smoky hollandaise sauce, two poached eggs, tomatoes, & Brie cheese. What an incredible flavor combo. The food stuck to my ribs all day. The restaurant also has a jam bar where you can try many flavored jams on the biscuits as well. I'm now a fan of this place, so I think that makes me an honorary biscuit head. read more

5 out of 5 starts..... I would give it more if I could! We were traveling from ChapelHill back to Arkansas and decided to take a couple days in Asheville. Our mom has talked about Biscuit Head since her girls trip a few years back so this biscuit loving family had to stop in! Not only do the have mouthwatering, light, fluffy, HUGE biscuits..... they also have some GLUTEN FREE!! The gentleman at the registers was knowledgeable in regards to gluten allergy and I was thankful he asked and informed me their kitchen was not a gluten free kitchen. Celiacs just know cross contamination is highly likely here. With this knowledge I did take the plunge. I am thankful I did. I ordered two gluten free biscuits (one for later) and grits. Everyone walked away happy and full. Thanks biscuit head..... I will be getting your cookbook. read more

We came in about 30 minutes before closing & did not feel rushed at all, in fact, the cashier was super helpful with my questions. We ended up getting biscuits with veggie gravy, & I ordered a gluten-free sandwich. Their seating options are plenty and not too frantic. Our food came out quickly! It was warm & looked + smelled SO delicious. As for their gluten-free biscuits. I was so so happy to eat a biscuit & was okay with ignoring the fact that it was pretty dry & super crumby... HOWEVER, knowing they are vegan + gluten-free, I cannot complain. I loved their jam bar, you could tell which ones were the favorites because most of them were out, but I can't complain, came in fairly close to closing. All the employees seem to feel like they're part of a team & are working together, which is so nice to see. I also really appreciated the cat theme throughout! Can't wait to be back for more gluten-free biscuits read more

We went here and we were probably one of the first people to have breakfast. We had just been driving for 10 hours so friendly employees and good food were in order. Gotta love biscuits and try something different for us! I also had to snag a zip up sweatshirt! Homey, big breakfasts and outdoor seating available as well. You can order big or order small- so something for everyone for breakfast! read more

Breakfast in the Ville would not be complete without a stop at Biscuit Heads. Pimento cheese grits and loaded home fries. Prolly top 3 grits I've ever had. Home fries were served with scallions, bacon and gravy. Mmm. Biscuits were filled with Brie, fried green tomato, poached egg, hollondaise, and smoked tomato gravy. Which tasted more like spicy tomato oil. It was still excellent! read more
