    Was only in Portland for the weekend and definitely had to come to get some biscuits! It was so delicious!

    Chicken, pimento and hot honey
    Steve F.

    Pine State is a must visit whenever we're in Portlandia. It was a solo trip for me this time. I enjoyed a wonderful biscuit with a fried chicken breast, pimento cheese, all slathered in hot honey. Messy, yes. Delicious, oh my yes! I brought my wife a quartet of biscuits as an early birthday present. She was in Pine State heaven.

    Was on my to try list, and i don't think I'd go back. The biscuits were tough and the jam was really sweet.

    To-Go Bloody Mary
    Brooke F.

    SO GOOD. First stop when we got into Portland this morning. I got a Bloody Mary and biscuits and gravy, it was incredible. It's pretty self serve in terms of sitting and bussing, but we didn't mind, it wasn't too packed. No problems getting a seat by the time we ordered. We loved it here!

    Great biscuits and gravy. Also had eggs, hash browns and a single blueberry pancake. Pancake was probably the best part. The 2 eggs and the hash browns are both $5 but the menu frames it in such a way where you think it's $5 for 2 eggs AND hash browns. The very nice staff behind the counter explained this to me (and like 5 other groups of people from what I could overhear). It's very small inside with mostly communal seating. They have a full bar from what I can tell. There's also another restaurant inside that serves Hawaiian food but it wasn't open yet when we were there for breakfast.

    Biscuit with House Made Sausage Gravy
    Caroline L.

    We wanted a simple warm breakfast and coffee and Pine State is the best for a homely meal in Portland! This location has small seating but it's not too busy at opening time. We came on a Sunday at 9AM and it was medium full of guests. We parked on the street that said two hour parking. After ordering we got a number and sat down reading the hilarious Portland Mercury newspaper found at the door and self-served a mug of Covea coffee. The soft fresh biscuits arrived with a delicious gravy sauce that was heavenly! The Reggie sandwich with fried chicken and eggs was so filling we left stuffed! It's always a good yummy meal at Pine State. Food: - Biscuit and Gravy (House Made Sausage Gravy) - The Reggie sandwich - very filling - A La carte biscuit with apple butter gives memories of fall and orange red leaves - Coffee from a local brewery

    Biscuit Beignets
    Elaine W.

    This was our first stop on our drive down from Seattle to the Bay Area! Great breakfast, really enjoyed the biscuit & gravy with fried chicken as well as the biscuit beignets. The gravy was not savory enough for me but the biscuit itself was really good so I ordered a plain biscuit separately and that was delicious, with a nice bite on the crust and a great soft inside. The flavor was also well-balanced, not too buttery or salty like some other biscuits I've had. Will definitely stop by on the way up to try their sandwiches and see the biscuits showcased that way as well! The biscuit beignets were super unique and I really liked the powder sugar ones (although both were great). I also normally don't like butterscotch but the butterscotch/caramel dip went pretty well with the beignets. Would definitely recommend trying these if you're nearby!

    Chicken biscuit with honey butter.
    Chastain S.

    Great menu - you can customize your Sammy as I did in this photo. Get the honey butter it's the best dipping sauce for the biscuit! My only regret is not getting the gravy too.

    By far one of my favorite spots for biscuits and gravy. Every time I try biscuits and gravy somewhere else, I catch myself comparing it to Pine State. Their mushroom gravy is incredibly flavorful, rich, savory, and perfectly seasoned. I could pour it over just about anything and be happy. Nothing else really hits the same way. Usually when I come for breakfast, there's a huge line out the door. Luckily, I started my morning late on Sunday and showed up about an hour before closing, no line at all, and we got our food pretty quickly. Service was fast and friendly, which made the whole experience even better.

    Fried Mac & Cheese
    Grace H.

    DELICIOUS!!! Placed an online order and the overall process was nice and smooth. Everything came as ordered as well. I got the Reggie with Nashville hot chicken and it was a 10/10. Not too try and the spice level was perfect for me. The portion is good and the chicken was nice and big too. I also got the fried Mac & cheese which was heavenly - definitely day dreaming about it. My fiance loved his Reggie as well with extra Texas Pete on the side. Overall, highly recommend and I can see the hype!

    Wanted to go here for a very long time. I've heard about it as being a Portland staple and I just had never got around to going there. It was different then I imagined. Not in a bad way, just different. I didn't expect it to be counter service (meaning you order at the counter) and I didn't expect it ti be a seat yourself place. I also heard wait times were bad for seating and getting your food but we ordered, found a seat and got our food rather quickly. Service was great, friendly and prompt. I got the Reggie Deluxe. The gravy was amazing (I got the mushroom one) and so was the biscuit (Soft buttery and delicious) the cheese and bacon also complimented it all. The chicken in the sandwich was fine. It was a little dry but not terrible. Everything else made up for it. My kid got a biscuit two eggs and a snickerdoodle. Unfortunately he did not like his food much. He ate about half the biscuit a bite of eggs and a bite of the cookie. He thought the cookie was flavorless. I tried it, I thought it was okay not great. Overall I thought it was really good. I definitely would come back, probably would get the biscuits and gravy. With that said I probably would not bring my son again. This place isn't ultra kid friendly if your kid is remotely picky, just meaning there is no kid menu and I kind of had to piece together what he might like. It's more of the kind of spot you meet a friend or date for breakfast or brunch. The area is also kind of small so I you might plan to sit outside or just get your food to go especially if you have 3 or more people in your party.

    I LOVE a good biscuit and they can be harder to find than you might think - unless you live near a Pine State location that is! On my last trip to Portland I tried one of their crazy stacked biscuit sandwiches which was good, but nothing beats their biscuits and gravy except maybe adding a fried egg on top. When I tell you I INHALED the whole thing at like 9 in the morning and was full all day! I also lucked out and got the last of their freshly made seasonal poptarts which made for a nice treat when I was finally hungry again. Can't recommend this place enough!

    Pine State Biscuits (located on Schulyer,) was the perfect way to start the day with three very hungry toddlers. This location offers limited seating for large groups, but perfect for small parties. The ability to order ahead online is greatly appreciated, the customer service was awesome. The biscuits are truly FANTASTIC! My husband and I really enjoyed sharing a mimosa, BIG thanks to the team for even having it as a to go option! Oh and the grits! This southern girl is very impressed, they were excellent! If you're visiting the Portland area, and want a great breakfast be sure to add any of the Pine State Biscuit locations to your itinerary; I highly recommend!
