Great service and food. read more

The Flying Biscuit Cafe - SHRIMP AND GRITS ENTRÉE - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The GRITS, The GRITS, The GRITS!! I've been here two weeks in a row. Both times I had a great experience. The first server we had was JAMIE the second was SHAWN both were great. The food is always delicious. I'm wild about the biscuits they are to die for, I love mine with the homemade apple butter. This is a nice quaint restaurant with beautiful decor. The staff seems like old friends. I have a favorite table, I'm lucky enough to get almost everytime I visit. It's located right as you step into the restaurant on the right, you can see everything that's going on inside. One of my favorite dishes is the chicken biscuit and gravy. read more

Wow! What a warm & inviting space with genuine southern hospitality. The colors are vibrant, with bright floral designs. The hosts when you enter, and our waitress welcomed us warmly with big smiles. The menu excited us when we were looking somewhere in area for breakfast. Food and service both delightful! Place was packed and we got our meals so quickly. I had the small breakfast bowl, bacon egg & cheese over the most delicious grits, with one of their legendary biscuits on the side. "Small" is super filling. Be sure to ask for their apple butter to go with it. It's to die for! Pancake breakfast tacos are so huge, we couldn't finish! Pancakes are super fluffy and half inch + thick! Our server was super nice & attentive. I would look forward to coming back here. Unexpected awesome discovery first time in area. Highly recommend! read more

The food and service were exceptional. I just happened to be in the neighborhood and found this awesome place. I live 45 mins from here and will absolutely come back. Lucy and Oumar were the best. Definitely recommend this place for breakfast or brunch.!!! read more

We went for a Sunday brunch for two and got seats relatively quickly at the bar area. The waiter was nice and recommended us some dishes since it was my first time there. I ordered the Hangover Hash and it was delicious! If it is your first time there, I definitely recommend ordering from the "Fantastic Favorites" section of the menu since each dish comes with their signature flying biscuits and apple butter. The moon dusted potatoes were also yummy and would recommend it as well. The inside was very colorful with cute posters, it was a great place to get brunch with a friend while sipping on some mimosas! read more

I'm trying so much to be patient with this location after going to the original location for 30 years. This place needs work. There is never an actual host or greeter. The bar is so crammed with staff trying to pick up their orders, but there is not near enough room. I almost sat at the bar, but after watching other patrons waiting for some service, I chose a table instead. Honestly, the 3-4 times we have been here, it's been very disorganized. Obviously the volume of tables does not match the actual pick up window size and wait staff, as I watched it get severely backed up to where wait staff was actually returning plates back to the window, amidst the confusion. read more

Always excellent service, and Oumar makes sure we have it! Yummy entrees--- especially the Oh My Grits bowl that you can tailor to your taste buds. We've been long-time patrons of this FBC since it opened 30+ years ago in Candler Park. It is the best one still IMO, weathering the franchising and COVID challenges, and move to the new space. We'll keep coming back. read more

Hubby and I enjoyed the atmosphere and services again here at Flying biscuit! I remembered to get pictures of the yummy food this time. Hubby liked the stuffed French toast I got the waffle with fruit. The cheese grits or so creamy! read more

The food was great! Biscuits are fluffy, bacon was cooked perfectly, eggs were very delicious, and their award winning white cheddar grits were to die for. Bold black coffee and great sweet tea. The ambiance is clean, colorful, and welcoming with lots of art on the walls and tables. Gorgeous covered outdoor patio. The staff always have a smile and are so kind! Handicap accesible with a ramp leading to the entrance. The GM Umar was thorough in checking on every table! Will definitely be returning and recommending to others!! read more

The food is stellar. I got my usual: smoked salmon scramble with a side of grits and an iced chai. The dill cream cheese is a nice compliment to the salmon. The grits are so creamy and are to die for. They have "gluten friendly" (not gluten free, but close) items marked on the menu, which is helpful. I have celiac, and have never had an issue with their food. The mood is a little inconsistent. One minute it's silent, and the next minute, there's music blaring. read more

Very disappointed in this location!! Ordered the BLT they served my a sandwich with raw bacon. When I sent it back they cooked bacon but used same bread(very dry) and same ugly piece of lettuce and one sliver of tomato !! read more

Who doesn't love a city icon? The Candler Park location is cozy and welcoming, with outside and inside seating. A great selection of flavorful mimosas and brunch entrees.

Every time I visit the Atlanta area this a go to spot for some good southern food. I think part of it is nostalgic for me. The first time family brought me here was before Atlanta was such a hustling and bustling town. Service has always been friendly and attentive. Can't really say there's anything special about the food it, but I feel it's just a special place to get good home cooked southern food. The only thing I feel could use an upgrade is the coffee. They sure could use better grounds. In my humble coffee snob attitude chicory is better than what they serve. Yes, yes, I'll accept the hits for that remark lol. read more

We found the Flying Biscuit as a breakfast option while visiting Atlanta for Drum Corps International and honestly, I never want breakfast from anywhere else. The building is small and unassuming, but we were seated right away. Our server was so lovely and pleasant. We got drinks right away, and she was happy to answer any questions we had. Our son got pancakes , which looked light and fluffy and he devoured them. My husband and I each got the grits bowls. They came with grits and included four toppings: i ordered an over hard egg, cheddar, spinach and mushrooms. For me, the egg was perfect. I like it slightly crispy around the edges with nothing moving and this did not disappoint. But the star of the show was the grits. It's nearly impossible to get yummy grits in my home town, and these were creamy and flavorful. I could have cried. We all got biscuits served warm with fresh apple butter, too. Breakfast is not usually my favorite meal, but this could change my mind! Great food. Great service. Great prices. read more

Everything was great except for the hollandaise on the eggs Benedict. Whatever that yellow sauce they gave us was not hollandaise. Tasted like an egg and butter mixture thickened with flour. If they can't make a real hollandaise they should not put it on the menu read more

Omar and Maria are great hosts. We always enjoy our breakfast when we come here. The biscuits, grits, and Belgian waffles are the best. The service is helpful. Ambiance is nice and cozy. Our favorite dish is the High Flyer. read more

I visited here on a Thursday in the year of our lord, 2023. My aunt and I had breakfast. If I'm not mistaken, this is the flying biscuit originally opened by the singing group the Indigo Girls . Fun fact I went to school with Amy Ray. anyway, me and my aunt both ordered the hangover hash. this is a mixture of moon, potatoes, eggs, black bean salsa, and chicken tenders. The place is very cozy in the heart of Candler Park . our waitress was nice and the service was great. this is not my first rodeo ass. I have been to the Peachtree Corners location. The food is great in both places as it is fresh, not frozen. A great place for breakfast, but it also has burgers and lunch items .As for cost, it's a little high but you're getting quality for the $. Highly recommend it. read more

I'm here with my daughter. I've never brought her here. Imagine that. Lol. Anyhoo, we are here. I was told that ownership changed by other people but noted that the food was the same. We ordered the Shrimp and Grits w/the Moon Dusted Potatoes. Everything was good. I noticed that the entree used to have a side salad that came with it, but as times change, so did the menu. I did miss the fresh basil garnish on top. Overall, our meals were great. We devoured our food. Great time, and we'll be back! read more

Super friendly service and yummy food no matter how busy this place gets. Delicious options that also include vegan and gluten free. Adorable and charming atmosphere. This place has been a staple for quite some time. Note: they are relocating summer of '24 I'm sure the new location will be just as awesome. They deserve newer and bigger digs. The OG location really be missed. read more

Where do I start?!??? Horrible! Franchising this location was the worst decision ever. Killing the rep of an Atlant a institution. My daughter requested to come here because she now lives in LA and wanted to eat here because it used to be one of our favorite brunch spots after church. First, it took forever to get service after being seated, it took a long time to get our drink order. At that time we, we asked to have the order for a 3 year old expedited because he was hungry and irritated. I got my pancake order served in a DIRTY plate. From that point I was done. The toddler meal that we requested to be expedited came out last. And the pancakes were raw. We sent them back and you would think they would bring out the a fresh batch right away. No we waited. We had to ask for replacement. The adults were done eating when the trash batch came out. The servers need training. Instead of walking around the table and handing me a hot cup of coffee, it was handed me over the length of the table. Almost tipping over and burning me. When collecting the dirty plates, instead of actually "collecting" them, they expected us to hand them to them. Also, tell the waitress that straws go in an apron pocket, not in her back pocket on her butt! Lastly, the pancake I sent back on the dirty plate. Guess when I got the replacement? When the table was cleared and we received our check! read more

I like this place! The ambiance is LOVELY and the decor is so beautiful. The service was pretty good, the place was pretty packed when we went and the amount of noise was sort of overwhelming, but the food came in a good amount of time. The meals themselves were yummy, I got the chicken and waffles, which was great, and my girlfriend got the strawberry cheesecake stuffed French toast, which was also lovely! The grits are delicious, and the turkey bacon. The only reason I give it four is the layout of the restaurant is close quarters and it makes it hard to hear if you're with a big party. read more

Simply amazing great food, good vibe, and the staff is always friendly. Definitely worth checking out again.

I returned to Atlanta for a visit after being away for a few years, and was so excited to return to The iconic Flying Biscuit. I was so disappointed. The light, fluffy biscuits the restaurant is named for were gone, replaced with dry, flat tasteless biscuits that resemble the grocery store frozen variety. I only took 2 bites. The potatoes are not fresh made, also seemed like frozen diced potatoes with too much salt. Only the scrambled eggs were tasty. So sad. New owners? Cutting corners? It's like a totally different restaurant now. read more

Disgusting food. Service mediocre. Cute decor. I have to say that the food here was absolutely shameful. The grits tasted watery & spoiled. The scrambled eggs were definitely not fresh cracked but instead either the rehydrated power kind or the ones from a premixed carton. The sage sausage was old, dry and resembled a leather hockey puck. Biscuit okay, but a grocery store freezer biscuit would be better. No one came to check on us after the food was delivered until it was time to pay. I can 1000% say that the Yelp reviews are bogus. Do yourself & your stomach a favor and skip this. You have been warned! read more

Went with party four & was told it'd be 30-40mins. Ended up being one hour on a Sunday afternoon. The grits are creamy. The bacon is great. The potatoes were dry though. And I was very disappointed with the biscuit especially considering the name of this place ! They tasted store bought. Popeyes biscuits are better than this, tbh. Probably won't be back read more

Excellent service. I appreciate the vegan options listed on the menu as it give those of us that are vegans an actual choice. Visited on a Thursday afternoon, and my party was seated very quickly. I ordered the tofu wrap with potatoes, both were very delicious. You'll definitely get your money's worth if you order it. This is not my first time visiting and definitely won't be my last. I look forward to visiting again when in town to see if any new options are added for vegans. read more

The Flying Biscuit Cafe - GA PEACHES & CREAM WAFFLE BREAKFAST - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Flying Biscuit Candler Park. Food wasn't that great today. Sunday, 2/6/2022. I've been to this location about 3 times in the last year or so. Wasn't sure what to get as I didn't have anything in particular I wanted other than Fried Green Tomatoes. They didn't have any. That's weird. But ok. I ordered the salmon and eggs and it was not good. I've had the dish before. The salmon was over cooked and tasted like bacon. Hair was in my grits. Server replaced the grits but I thought she should have at least gave a discount. Nope. Needless to say I wasted $ for food I didn't eat. read more

Really enjoyed our meal today! Chris provided great service for us. Sadly we are just in town visiting family but we'll be back for sure. Chicken and waffles was fresh and hot (steamin' not spicy unless you want it spicy just ask!) Added from the sides menu a biscuit and chicken gravy. Best decision ever! If you have someone to share a meal with, you can satisfy your craving for both! read more

My visit to this restaurant was on a Saturday morning and there was a slight wait for a party of 6. The servers were super kind and the restaurant was lively and clean. I ordered the Hot Chicken Waffle with Gravy and Eggs on top. The chicken and waffle were cooked perfectly but I think the buffalo sauce and gravy was a little overwhelming. I had a biscuit, home fries and grits to try on the side and they were all great. Their grits has cheese in it adding a nice flavor profile. The biscuits came with cinnamon apple butter as it is September and i wish the butter wasn't chilled. Otherwise a great meal 3.7/5 stars for me. read more
