    Chicken Biscuit sandwich
    Marissa S.

    A great spot for a quick southern breakfast. The chicken biscuit sandwich hit the spot, warm delicate biscuit and fresh breaded chicken. I enjoyed an iced latte with house made blueberry and vanilla syrups. I also tried the special donut of the week-ube, which was soft and perfect. Warm staff, great place all around!

    Meat Lover's Sandwich

    I came in and ordered the breakfast sandwich special for the weekend, the Meat Lover's Sandwich. It was egg, cheese, bacon, and sausage. It was an excellent sandwich, the flavors were all perfect. Only complaint would be that they seem to make them ahead and keep them wrapped in the oven, but because of that my biscuit was a little soggy when I got my sandwich. I also got a decaf Americano and it was great! I also really appreciated that the barista confirmed it was decaf when she handed it to me so I didn't have to ask or wonder if I was given caffeine. It's the small things! Would love to come back and try some of their other biscuit sandwiches!

    Such a retro cozy space. It's all about biscuits here. They are freshly made and you can get build your own biscuit sandwiches or add whatever on top of their menu. The biscuits are fluffy and buttery. So much better than those fast food places! Unfortunately dogs are not allowed inside so I had to park my steed outside and order to go. They brought my order out to me while we waited outside. So nice.

    What a cute place! This came recommended and for good reason. The biscuits are terrific. But we got a sausage egg and cheese one and it was mouth watering delicious. Fell apart a bit but that's what you expect with a biscuit. We also got some coffee. Fresh and strong. Just the way it should be. The interior is a throwback and we liked sitting at one of the tables outside. Friendly service. A winner.

    Chicken biscuit with a side of sawmill gravy

    Was in town for annual brewery trip with my buddies. Stopped here for breakfast and this place is amazing! One of the best, if not the best biscuit sandwich I've ever had in my life. The owner was behind the counter and suggested the off menu choice of the chicken biscuit with a side of sawmill gravy. I can't recommend this enough. Tried one of their pastries as well and it was outstanding. So good that this place is Stevie K Certified Legit af!

    Super friendly staff with lots of smiles, really cute shop with a smell of deliciousness right when I walked in. My biscuit is huge, so flavorful, light and buttery! My cappuccino is perfect! Excellent local breakfast/lunch spot! Thanks for the fabulous experience!!

    Biscuits taste delicious and are freshly baked! Really good, nice service and a good vibe in the store. Very small space, so probably best for take out. I got the seasonal malted vanilla latte and it was one of the best I've had in awhile. My one negative was that the sandwiches don't come with egg! Feels like it's missing something!

    High energy spot with some reliable breakfast! Being in the south, it's essential to find a place with a good biscuit - glad to know that Early Bird Biscuit Company provides just that! Was super cheap but tasted nothing of the sort - loved the hashbrown on my sandwich, literally every breakfast sandwich deserves a potato. All they need is more seating and they'd be golden :)

    I loved that the biscuit were perfect squares and I could tell this was an old fashioned recipe. they offer sand with the biscuits or a simple homemade jam. the restaurant is cozy but wonderful to relax if you get there in time. they close around 2 so this spot is definitely a treasure to the neighborhood. Richmond has so awesome coffee spot no exception here.

    I cant recommend this place enough. I've been going for years, and finally remembered to take a pic of my biscuit before devouring it, so I'm going o utilize this moment to finally remember to review this wonderful little spot! This is gem will remind you of the the small bakery you see in a Hallmark movie. The staff is so friendly, usually the same people, they learn your name, they know what you like, they've got a spot for your dog to sit while you run in and grab your goodies. It's just all around one of the best little places in the Fan neighborhood. They keep it fresh & exciting by offering a completely different rotating savory or sweet biscuit everyday on their special menu, along with other fun pastries & themed goodies, and then have a regular menu too with coffees, breakfast sandwiches galore. I'm a savory biscuit girlie, so can't speak on the sweet biscuits, but the savory are always fun, well-seasoned & amazing, and other sweets I've tried, like brownies, cookies etc were so scrumptious! My fav savory biscuits thus far have been: Cheddar Bay, Jack & Ranch, Pimento Cheese and Queso Fresco!

    The store is quaint
    Roger H.

    I've been twice now and the biscuits are enormous and scrumptious. Just plain lovely. Egg is fluffy. You can get Virginia country ham on it...or...vegan sausage. Both are great. So many choices of toppings like pimento cheese. So good...go!!!

    Biscuits and Gravy side of jam
    Michelle B.

    While in town from Houston for a wedding, I had a bit of free time to grab something yummy for breakfast. When a biscuit company comes us suggested by yelp figured why the heck not. So glad I decided to venture over. I asked the gentleman serving what he recommended as I was only in town for a day and didn't want to get something that wasn't that great. He suggested the biscuits and gravy. So glad that I did. The biscuit was a decent size and not too dry which a lot of places mess up. He also suggest I ordered the jams with an extra biscuit. I figured why not. So glad that I did. I wanted to lick up the extra. Great job on the mango which I wasn't expecting since not many places can master than one. The homemade pop tarts are apparently an item they are known for. I understand why. I almost forgot this in my bag traveling the next day but decided to try eating after I beat up some. Oops. But still soooo good and forth it. The cost overall wasn't bad. Super simple and to the point place. The dining room tables inside are still closed. I had forgotten that people still don't eat inside all places here like in Texas. Over even to go I would come back again while in town even if it was just to grab a pop tart.

    Egg and Cheese Biscuits
    Jen J.

    Holy sweet biscuit these babies were unbridled buttery, crumbly deliciousness. Their egg and cheese biscuit is a filling sandwich that gives you wonderful flavors the whole gobble through. It's pretty packed in the actual cafe, so I'd take this one to-go as you explore the very cute neighborhoods nearby. If you do not make time to get a biscuit sandwich from here when you're in Richmond, you are living life wrong!

    We ALWAYS offer that option.

    Do they have any gluten free biscuit options?

    Thank You for the question. At this time we have found no good alternatives for a gluten-free Biscuit. On occasion we do prepare flourless items for our pastry case. Feel…

That employee also completely ignored me, despite the fact that I was clearly standing there waiting to be helped. I was there to pick up a DoorDash order for someone else, but based on the way I was treated, I can guarantee you I will not be choosing to spend my own money at this establishment. I ultimately had to ask another customer who was standing in line if they knew where to pick up a DoorDash order. The entire experience was incredibly dismissive and unprofessional.

I settled on the pistachio cream filled pecan pastry, the almond twist, and strawberry shortcake. The beverage menu was extensive: matcha, flavored teas, cocoa, espresso/coffee, and more. We were greeted by pleasant staff at checkout and our orders placed in a parchment type bag for take out. They also have seating inside. The pastries were just sweet enough without being overly sweet, which I like. The pistachio cream was a perfect compliment to the pecan encrusted pastry. The almond twist was both flaky and crunchy with the sliced almonds on top, and the strawberry shortcake had layers of real strawberries, whipped topping and yellow cake that was moist. All were fresh. All in all, a great place to stop by for a morning pastry treat and tea/coffee while in the area,

It is fast casual - you order at the kiosk and grab a place to eat, listening for your number and/or text to alert you the food is ready. We arrived about 6pm on a Saturday night. It was busy and I grabbed one of the last two tables. It got very busy shortly after we placed our orders. The dining area is pretty big with plenty of bar seating around the windows. While we all ordered one after the other, our food didn't come out that way. Most of the food came out in about 25-30 minutes. The chicken was cooked perfectly. Juicy! Two people got tenders and three of us got sandwiches. The OG sandwich was very good, just messy! I ended up using a fork and knife bc it got too messy. The Mac and cheese was made with pimento cheese and was very good. My friend who got the fried green tomatoes said they were delicious and filling. Lots of goodies on top. Two friends enjoyed the collards. The only person who was underwhelmed was the person who got the Asian sandwich. Overall, if I wanted a good chicken sandwich and a Buttermilk and Honey was nearby, I'd place an order.

The vibe inside is…read moresuper warm and welcoming, especially if you want somewhere chill to read, work, or just hang out and talk for a bit. Seating is kind of limited, but luckily we were able to snag a table. I had fun checking out all the different book sections, but the banned book area was definitely the coolest part to me. I thought it was awesome that they give people the chance to explore those books so openly. I only got a cold brew, and it was okay. I wasn't a fan of their ice just cuz the shape just melts quicker and makes your drink watery fast. Aside from that, the service was really great. Everyone was super friendly and happy to help. The location is also really convenient if you're around the VCU Cary st area. Definitely a nice spot to relax for a while.

Upon entering, the books are found along the wall, there are tables and chairs to sit and the coffee is ordered at a counter right in the center of the store. Towards the back, they have a section just for kids and young adults. Also, there are plenty of parking outside. They have new and old books available at decent prices. One of the best things I have ever seen is they have a dedicated turning bookcase for BANNED books of Hanover county. It is a lending library. You choose a book, open it and scan the QR code inside and check off the book you picked. Then, you return it when you're done. No time limit on it. That easy. I am so proud that they are supporting these books and making it easy for anyone to have access to them. On this visit, I borrowed Jodi Picoult's book, Nineteen Minutes. I recommend you come visit and support this coffee/book shop in the VCU area. I definitely recommend it and plan to visit often.
