Seriously so good!! I stopped by Matt Robb's last summer while visiting UTK and have been thinking about it again as friends are announcing their commitment to the university. While looking up the best places to try, this place really stood out. It is a small place - not much seating indoors but at least in the summer there are some tables right outside. Matt's service is great - fast and kind. Not to mention his food (biscuits) being so crazy good!! Anything he makes it going to be delicious, just be sure to get to the storefront early enough (right around opening or a few minutes early) so you can get your pick of biscuit type and such. Definitely, definitely, try Matt Robbs if you have the time - it's a local favorite for a reason! read more

THE BEST BISCUIT I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! It was crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The fixin's were made to order and oh so fresh. Seriously so good. You can tell how much care and love go into each order as they are all handmade by Matt himself as he truly is a one man show. He is genuinely having a blast while making and serving his guests. It's a great atmosphere. With that being said, be prepared to wait, for a long time. We got there about 10 minutes before opening and were about 30th in line. We didn't get our food until an hour later. Just as long of a line when we were done eating as there was when it opened. We were not expecting to wait that long and almost left, but everyone in line said that it is well worth the wait, so we stayed. I'm very glad we did. We went on a Saturday morning in the summer so we took turns checking out the farmers market just a few blocks away to help pass time. Great move there! We will definitely be back the next time we are in Knoxville, this place is delish. read more

YUMMMMMM. Ordered the daily special: Blueberry Biscuit with Butter, Sausage, Egg, and double Cheese. Addictive. Friendly one man show read more

Everything is terrific! Matt is very engaging and wants to make sure you are happy. Cheddar garlic biscuit was outstanding. Took our biscuits and sat outside and he came to check on us to make sure we were happy. read more

Heard good things about this place from a colleague. So decided to check it out. Sadly, although I arrived within an hour of opening, he had already sold out of the blueberry biscuit. So I opted for the regular biscuit. Overall, the biscuit wasn't impressive. It was small and not flaky. Not up to par with others I've had. To worsen matters, would have expected more slices of bacon if I'm to be charged $3. Was a disappointing visit. read more

I have been wanting to visit this place for quite awhile now, and I actually did try one other time and he was all sold out! So I thought that I would come earlier this time...welllllllll.....They open at 9am and we arrived at 9:45.....he was already sold out of his regular biscuits and the blueberry ones. He only had a few of the garlic cheddar left!!!! So, we tried the garlic cheddar with egg and cheese and my husband had a cup of coffee. BEST BISCUIT IN KNOXVILLE!!!!!! My husband said that his coffee was very good also! We definitely are going to come back! Matt is so warm, friendly, laid back and yes - fun! I ask him if I could take his picture for my review and he said sure - then he insisted that we take a selfie together and not smile!!! So much personality along with his incredible baking talents! He visits with everyone and is full of real good ole Southern charm. The place is very small inside and Matt is a one man show. But he is so efficient that he doesn't really need anyone else. There are a few tables outside where you can sit and enjoy every bite of this deliciousness! I would highly recommend that you get there before 9am. read more

Was first in line on a Friday morning. Had a bacon, egg, & cheddar on a plain biscuit and a blueberry biscuit with butter & honey. Both were outstanding. Matt meticulously puts together every order and toasts them in the oven before packaging and sending you on your way. Fantastic boutique kitchen space and he does it all himself. Definitely check this place out if you have time. There's a short wait but worth it. read more

Stumbled across this little gem... Really busy, tiny place tucked inside the courtyard across the street from the courthouse. The blueberry biscuits here are amazing. I ordered the blueberry biscuits, smoked sausage, egg and cheese. He charges for each item you add onto it. Deee-licous!! I would definitely be back, but bring your patience..he is the only one working here. Long lines. But he knows his regulars. read more

The biscuits are the best. And huge! I can only eat half, and save the rest for lunch. It does not disappoint! read more

Amazing. Must have but get there early. Matt is a one man show but takes care of everyone.

10/10 biscuits! Best in town! Fresh and real. Get there early because the blueberry biscuits go FAST!

Best biscuit in Tennessee! Top 5 best in the southeast. The meticulous attention to detail when Matt prepares your biscuit of choice is an experience all on its own. Every biscuit is prepared with TLC. Please be patient and don't be rude. Two necessities when experiencing this delicacy. The crunchy exterior pairs so well with the spice from the cream cheese spread. Absolutely phenomenal. I also ordered an iced latte, which was great, and a plain biscuit with jelly. Lovely morning meal. read more

Matt Robbs Biscuits - Today's Special - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Listen, I don't know what kind of biscuit sorcery Matt Robb is working with, but whatever it is, don't question it. Just eat it. It's literally a man, making biscuits, and doing it better than anyone else out there. Period. It's simple. It's honest. It's ridiculously good. Get the biscuit. Get two. Matt Robb didn't come here to play. read more

This is the best breakfast biscuit sandwich ever! Matt has an ideal business model. Great location, amazing food, terrific music, and happiness! He's only open as long as he has biscuits. His biscuit of the day is always quick to go. Highly recommended! read more

I drove 50 minutes to have one of these biscuits. I'm from out of town... We came 45 minutes before they're set to close guy said sorry we're out of biscuits??? Will not return . read more

Food was great and the service was awesome! My husband typically doesn't like biscuits but he said this was great!

Matt is super nice and the food is worth the hype. Best biscuits in Knoxville without a doubt

Best Breakfast by an Amazing... Stopped here on a Road Trip from Chicago with my daughter who never had a proper biscuit... This place is EPIC- Well Done, Sir! read more

Best biscuit I've ever had!! If you ever want the true experience I recommend coming at opening time because stuff sells out immediately, like within an hour or two. My wife and I walked in and were greeted by Matt himself, super friendly as he is a one man act making and operating the place by himself. By the time we got there they were sold out of all meats, but he had 3 blueberry biscuits left, so of course we tried them. We had them with an egg and some cheese. They are sensational, filling and tasty in every bite. I hope to return in the Knoxville area again one day so I can try more. read more

This morning I grabbed a biscuit sandwich with cheese, egg, and bacon -- and wow, it did not disappoint! The biscuit was soft and flaky on the inside with just the right amount of crunch on the outside. The bacon had a perfect crisp, exactly how it should be and everything came together beautifully in each bite. It's pretty obvious everything is made fresh daily. The spot itself is a bit tucked away down an alley, so it can be a little tricky to find at first, but trust me -- it's absolutely worth the search. The owner was super friendly and welcoming, and the service was quick and efficient. The only downside is that there isn't a lot of seating inside, but that's a small trade-off for such a great breakfast. I'll definitely be back! read more

Amazing biscuits - sweet, savory, you can customize any way you like. The line out the door was a good sign, and moved relatively quickly. Will definitely be back next time we are in town. read more

The best biscuits in Knoxville. 10/10 you won't find anything better. However, he constantly runs out of items hours before close when it is only open for a few hours anyways. I showed up today and he was closed and only posted a notice to his instagram account. Very nice guy that makes amazing food, just a little unorganized. read more

Matt Robbs Biscuits - This was 10 am on Wednesday as you can see it is closed - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Love this place. Matt is a very nice and cool dude who prepares the biscuits and coffee right in front of you. It is a bit pricey, but it is worth every cent. I'd highly recommend giving this place a try because it will be the best breakfast biscuit you've ever had. read more

Literally just a man in his biscuit shop. Very good food with cute outdoor seating. Service was very quick considering it was just one guy. (who i'm assuming is Matt Robb) read more

4th time's a charm. Every other attempt, the famous Matt Robb has been sold out when I've stopped by. The big question...worth the hype? Yep! Around 9:30, it was packed inside and out. You must realize that Matt is literally a one-man show. He is taking orders whilst frying bacon and whipping up coffee creations. He does it masterfully and with grace and humor. If people are impatient, it doesn't show and the food will keep them coming back. He posts his daily menu and specials on IG and on a board in the shop. Today, it was a blueberry biscuit with bacon, egg, and cheddar. My friend tried this and a drip coffee. I opted for a garlic cheese biscuit with bacon, egg, and cheddar and a cold brew. Two options for cold brew-Nancy's (with oat milk and sweet cream) or Matt's that uses a simple syrup. I opted for Nancy's and that shtuff was smoooooth and fabulous! Can we focus for a min on these fluffy, crumbly biscuits from heaven?! By far the best biscuits I've eaten (I.e. devoured with gusto) since moving to the South. The garlic added a slight kick and flavor punch to mine. The blueberry biscuit was soft and the berries added just the touch of sweetness to balance out all of the savory goodness inside. Win! I will definitely be ordering some biscuits ahead for taking home, too. Matt has a new member for his fan club! read more

Great biscuits and biscuits Sammy's. The coffee is very good, too. Matt has a great personality - friendly and helpful. He had a few customers ahead of me, but my order was prepared in just a few minutes. It is a small place, but there is seating at a counter inside and tables outside. Did I say great biscuits? They are. I need to go back again. read more

We got there and got the last 2 biscuits of the day, did not disappoint! Matt was super friendly and chatted while making our order and was happy to give some other recommendations in the area! Definitely some of the best biscuits we have ever had highly recommended! read more

Wow, I am already planning my next trip to Knoxville around eating here again, the biscuit I had was that good. The special that morning was blueberry biscuit / butter / sausage / egg / double cheddar. No pics, was busy stuffing my face. read more

So glad we came upon this biscuit shop! My only complaint is that I wish we got here sooner! Some of the biscuits were sold out already but I did manage to get what was left! The biscuit was delicious and the cafe was so cute with seating options inside and outside. Matt was great and recommended some of his favorite Knoxville spots! read more

Sooooo good! Matt was also so nice. We got two garlic biscuits with sausage and cheese. 10/10. We will be back!

Loved this place so much last year, we made a point of stopping again this year on our annual road trip between our home in Chicago and the Outer Banks, NC. Definitely worth the effort! Sooo good. Thank you, Matt Robb! Hope you bring your biscuits to Chicago. Cute spot to sit by the courthouse too! read more

Oh my this was the best biscuit sandwich ever !! You can taste all the hard work put into making these; from scratch biscuits, and the quality fixings. It's a little hard to find if you're from out of town, but so happy we found it. read more

Great guy making great biscuits. Matt runs the place solo, he's baked all the biscuits from scratch. He claims they are the 3rd best in Tennessee - I've had most of them and I'd say he's underselling himself. The garlic cheddar biscuit was crazy tasty and the perfect crumb - moist without being sticky, fluffy without being bready, and flavored but not too salty. I got mine as an egg and pepper Jack sando but would have been happy just eating the biscuit alone. Makes me happy to see someone so skilled and invested in his craft - a rare find these days! read more

This one man show is great! We order coffee and biscuits, made our way. I had a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit and my husband two had sausage, butter, and strawberry jam biscuits. The biscuits have a wonderful crisp bottom, but are still soft and flaky throughout. The location is in a niche spot, it is a very small location, but obviously well liked by locals and travelers alike. If you are driving, be sure to have some coin change for street parking. We only had 18 minutes worth of change so we had to take our order to go, but totally worth it. The owner/chef (Matt) is very friendly to everyone. He knows his locals by name and while busy still takes the time to interact with everyone as if they are friends. This is a must breakfast stop while in Knoxville. read more

My friend and I made a special morning trip Downtown so we could grab breakfast from Matt Robb Biscuits and it was worth it! We were able to find a parking meter one block away, so parking was not an issue. We met the owner and he was very friendly. And he was busy fulfilling all the orders. It's a small biscuit shop with a few seats but we decided to eat in the nearby courtyard. This sweet and savory breakfast sandwich was absolutely delicious. The food was cooked fresh and prepared in front of us while we waited. Then toasted! Extra delicious with the melted cheese! The coffee was great, too. Because the biscuits are prepared to order you may find that there will be a line. But, it's worth the wait. (We waited about five minutes.) I'm definitely looking forward to having breakfast from Matt Robbs Biscuits again. read more
