Had B & G with breakfast potatoes and it was delicious. It was a bit pricey, at least I think $30 for breakfast for 2 is pricey. However the service was good but unsure who our actual waitress was because 3 came to our table during our meal. The ambiance was nice & not a lot of noise like some places. All in all it was good & enjoyable. read more

The food and service are always top notch! Staff are all so friendly and quick. The food is consistently yummy!

Favorite place to eat breakfast. Great breakfasts Family time to talk and visit. Favorite place to eat.

Came in on Father's Day, a Sunday this year, and were told "35 to 40 minutes". We were seated in less than 10, so pleasantly surprised. The wait staff were very friendly and quick. Ordered the eggs Benedict to challenge the chef (and all eggs are otherwise about the same anyway). St Joseph, Missouri is a border town between North and South but firmly on the north side of the line. The eggs Benedict are great. High quality ham, and a delicious hollandaise. The restaurant is large and spacious but probably two thirds of the tables are unused as a result of whatever this is going on with restaurants not getting enough workers in 2021 (I won't enter the political argument about the cause of this phenomenon). The restaurant is decorated with large classical photographs of, presumably, the local area 100 years ago). Probably the best breakfast place in the area. read more

The food is good but the speed they get you a table is rather slow. The food usually comes out fast. The pumpkin pancakes are amazing & it's too bad they don't have them year round! Food prices are a little high for amount of food you get. read more

The food is so good and big portions. My kids love the cinnamon toast pancakes. The service is fast and good.

Service was pretty good. 4/5. I believe our server's name was Andrew and he was attentive without being in our face about it. We did sit at our table for about 4 minutes before someone did take our drink order, so I had to knock down the rating 1 star. I do not fault our server with that. It appeared he was busy with other customers, but there was plenty of other staff milling about who could've been more helpful. It was about 1pm on a Sunday, it was not busy, and seemed that some of the staff were cleaning up so they could leave work, so they were less concerned with customers. COVID-19 precautions were being taken seriously. 5/5. I saw that they weren't seating some of their table. The staff was masked up and it appeared that when they were dealing directly with patrons, they were also wearing gloves. I very much appreciated that. Hot sauce, S&P were all served on request so there weren't any bottles or shakers on the tables. Food - this is where it just gets pulled down. A hard 2/5. It was mostly edible but my plate with the eggs and grits was too cold for my liking. When I put the butter on my grits, it barely started to melt. I also found the grits to be a little slimy. That could've been the butter but I put butter on my grits at home all the time and don't experience that at all. I wonder if the butter was more of a margarine, now that I think about it. The scrambled eggs tasted ok, but again, they were too cold to be considered good. My waffle was good, but it wasn't melting the butter at all, so again, too cold. My boyfriend ordered The Cowboy and he liked it, though the chicken fried steak was a bit tough. But he did enjoy the biscuits, so that is why I'm not giving the food a rating of only 1 star. All in all, I've been here 3 times and have always left disappointed. Idk how it gets higher ratings, but I don't plan on coming back here to eat when Le Peep and Waffle House have better food. If you like this place, keep on coming, but if you've never been, I'd say there are better breakfast places to eat in St Joe. read more

See all

service to a table is very poor at 9:30 in morning Tables are seen empty but they put you on a waiting list But if you're known by the person you go sit down immediately which is so wrong I was sitting waiting I seen it happen 3 times sitting there. Three Host groups around area just talking about personal task in life general and not considered about customer, so unprofessiona. Laughing aboit customer This will be my last trip sickening read more

Great food and service .. clean and friendly . Looking forward to my next visit to St. Joe

Great food and service! Everything came out hot and as ordered. Waitress was attentive.

REALLY GOOD FOOD !!!! Wait staff is really nice. Ordered the chicken fried steak... probably one of the best I have had in a long time.

Good food if you're looking for a big breakfast! Typical hangover cure. Wouldn't recommend if looking for a local atmosphere type of place.

Great food they need to be open longer than 2 p m Always a line to get in Them biscuits gravy are soooooo good

We've eaten here several times. Today was very good. We ordered the loaded sticky biscuit to share to start. It was very good. I ordered scrambled eggs with cheese, extra crispy bacon, grits, and a biscuit. Husband ordered basted eggs, hash browns, and rye toast. Food came out quick, correct, and hot. My only complaint is the grits were too thin...but that is better than thick and lumpy! We'll be back the next time we're in St Joe. read more

Might be the best biscuits I've ever had. My wife and I both ordered the Mayberry, and it scores high on both quality and quantity. We were traveling out of state, and I'm looking for another reason to go back to Missouri so I have an excuse to have breakfast here again. read more

Wouldn't expect it from the outside, but it is so nice on the inside and they staff was so polite! Very happy with the meal and our service :) read more

Excellent breakfast! Service was superb! Our waiter was Lucas, ask for him! won't be sorry! we give this restaurant and this waiter a 5 star review!! read more

The big biscuit is just what it means. The biscuits were huge. If you wanted biscuits and gravy I would suggest just a half biscuit and if you are a lite eater get the 1/4 biscuit. Yes they do offer that as an option. I had the breakfast ham and eggs and it was wonderful and a correct portion for me to enjoy and not fill overstuffed or hungry in an hour. Service was good and normal. Great price for the potions. It was busy, so that means they are well known and have great food. The only draw back was uncomfortable chairs. read more

every time i've been, they make sure our drinks and food are out in a timely manner. always friendly and helpful. make sure you're tipping your servers! they more than deserve it. the Three Car Pileup is HUGE in a good way. if you have the appetite, i more than recommended it. read more

I love this place! Probably because I love biscuits and gravy. Their biscuits and gravy are one of the best I've ever had. Besides homemade. I've eaten here twice and can't wait to go back! You gotta try it! read more

Toxic Food NEVER ORDER TO GO FOOD HERE! They put to go food in styrofoam containers which leach a cancer causing substance called Styrene into the food according to the US government, not to mention the nasty flavor in gives the food, (This is particularly true with hot food). And don't ask them to put in a paper liner in because they will tell you they will and they don't. (Its above the managers pay grade apparently). I have asked them repeatedly to do this and was assured they would only to find out they did not! I guess they could give two craps about your health and not serving toxic, cancer causing food. If they care that little about putting a liner in their styrofoam to go boxes they probably do not care about much else. AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU CARE FOR YOUR HEALTH! read more

I ordered the Workout Scramble and it was delicious. The fresh fruit side consisted of ripe grapes bananas and strawberries. Very tasty. Everyone commented on the huge servings and the biscuits we're also a hit! Our server was friendly and very attentive to our group. This is now our go to place for breakfast when visit St. Jo. read more

The Big Biscuit - Bonut special - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Saint Joseph, Missouri

The big biscuit lived up to it's name. I saw plenty of BIG biscuits. I opted for the cinnamon roll pancake that was amazing... the only thing is the temperature of the food. I also had an omelet that could use a bit more cheese. Overall the food was good and I'd come back. Staff was pleasant and my server was nice. Big brunch rush on Sunday's. I'm interested in what else the Big biscuit has to offer. read more

The Big Biscuit - Cinnamon Roll Pancake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Saint Joseph, Missouri

Everything was great! Truly impressed. Their chicken is the star of the show. Had CF Chicken and CF Steak. Both obviously hand made and fresh. Creamy flavorful grits. Clean restaurant and restrooms. Great service. Their staff seemed really happy and dedicated. Just passing through town but made us want to come back again. read more

I like Big Biscuit and I cannot lie!!! An excellent stop for brunch!! Food was great. The Bonut is a pleasant surprise.. reminds me of a beignet but heavier and you get the salty taste of the biscuit with the sweetness from the glaze/ powdered sugar. I had the Yardbird. The chicken was fried perfectly and very large and tender. The gravy was delicious, a bit of spicy Ed's but just right. Prices were great. Service was great. Definitely glad we stopped read more

Good breakfast on the way from an early airport drop off. The service was good and food hot. I ordered the Country Benedict and was not disappointed. It was good and filling. My dining companion had an omelet and was pleased with her selection. I would stop here again if in the area for breakfast. read more

Kids loved it. Engaging staff and professional servers. Fast, hot and very tasty. Short wait. Lots to choose from on the menu.

Best breakfast joint ever! Fast, friendly wait staff, good layout to accommodate any size party, and the food is DELICIOUS! Love the Big Biscuit St Joe read more

My husband and I like to check out new places when we travel and we were very pleased with this place.... We ordered the ham/ cheese omelet which came with hash brown & a biscuit so we also requested a side of gravy for our biscuits... the food was VERY GOOD.... Temperature perfect ... my only minus point is the coffee that they give you in your own jug was not very hot so I had Luke warm coffee but if that's the only thing to minus on I give this nice little place 2 thumbs up. The service was spot on & our waitress was a friendly young lady read more

besides the grits & biscuit all 3 of our meals were inedible. my husband's breaded chicken sandwich was ice cold, my sons french toast sticks weren't cooked all of the way & my omelet was oily & tasteless. non of us ate even half of our meals. the service was good but we could tell other diners weren't happy with their food either. this establishment better step it up in the kitchen or I don't see them making it. read more

If you haven't been here get here. The food is great and the service is just as good. The manager is always on the floor making sure everyone is happy. Price is very reasonable. read more

Delicious breakfast! Large portions. Loved the biscuits. Will definitely return! We had French Toast platter and the Mayberry. Join the waitlist online as it can get crowded. read more

The food was amazing! The menu had anything you would want for breakfast! I can say that it has been a long time since I had such quality service! The restaurant is large and calm along with TV's to watch sports if you wanted to. I highly recommend it and will be returning the next time I'm in town! read more

I honestly couldn't believe the reviews I saw on this place. They were all excellent reviews, however I went there today. As my granddaughter and I walked in we were all but ignored by The Host. The lobby was full yes but to not even get acknowledged I felt was rude. I was told then that it was a half an hour wait. We waited 45 minutes with no less than eight tables available. In that 45 minutes two parties were seated. I went up and asked the host if there was a problem, and all I got was Sir it's a longer wait than we expected. I pointed out that there were tables available and all I got was I'm sorry sorry it's a longer wait than we expected. The host stood at the front desk the entire 45 minutes and he never seated a single party. I can honestly say that I was at this restaurant twice in the same visit, first and last read more

On our way home from vacation and found this place on yelp... Did not disappoint! Exactly what we needed... Portions are HUGE. You will NOT be hungry afterwards. Great variety... Amy was our waitress and she was an awesome waitress. Highly recommend! read more

Delish Food bowl are insane love this place but it hurts my wallet 10/11 tbh could have some better chocolate milk

Alamo Burrito is really delicious!! We love The Big Biscuits, the biscuits are so good! We were leaving town early and I ordered online for a to-go order, this was during the coronavirus ordeal (however MO was opened back up at this time and dine in was open)....so it said that my order would be waiting on the no contact pickup table. That is perfectly fine, I've done this before....however it is 50 degrees out and out hot breakfast was sitting outside on a table!!!! Why in the world would you not put the no contact table INSIDE to keep it warm?!??? It was not hot, barely warm. Can't the table be inside?!?! Other restaurants do no contact table pickup as well, but they are ALWAYS inside!!!! If this was my first time at the big biscuit I'm not sure we would be back, however I know the food is good but putting the food outside is ridiculous and uncalled for! read more

I made the mistake of coming to the big Biscuit today where I was greeted by a woman who looked like she hadn't showered in days. Sadly she was also my waitress. Her name is Lala and she was so dirty and smelled like alcohol. I was nervous about her touching my food. It felt like I needed a shower after being around her. Disgusting. Her words were slurred and I could hear her all the way from the kitchen screaming and cursing. Not a good look for any restaurant. Won't go back again and I will not recommend this place to anyone read more

Christina is awesome, give the girl a raise! No, seriously. Sweet blond girl. Give. Her. A. Raise.

Great food great service. Nice friendly experienced staff. Just might be the best breakfast place ever. Coffee is really good and hot. Love it. What do we have to do to get one on the east coast. Wish I would have taken a picture to show friends and family back home. It was the best biscuit I have had since grandma made them from scratch. Thank You read more
