The Fancy Biscuit is a uniquely southern brunch spot where fried chicken and eggs are all served on biscuits. The biscuits are crumbly, buttery and delicious. The prices were extremely reasonable. I got the ham, cheese and egg on a biscuit with an arugula side salad. For the price, the portions were absolutely huge! Service was fast and friendly. It wasn't too crowded on a Wednesday morning and we were seated immediately. The place is fairly small but the light decor makes it feel less cramped. It was a great place to sit and chat and eat before heading off to Kings Dominion. read more

They renovated the restaurant an expanded to included what use to be shindigz! Despite the additional seating the wait was still about 20 mins. I miss the outdoor seating with tent that they created during Covid. The service was friendly! Biscuit was dense, but the jelly was light and fresh. The sweet potato bacon hash was great! They definitely improved the recipe. read more

We stopped by on a road trip and it was totally worth it. Service was exceptional! Online ordering is also available. We got breakfast sandwiches to go, as well as fruit and grits. Everything was delicious, packaged well and served quickly. Place was clean, with great big picture windows. Very welcoming. It was a pretty hot day, and the server offered us some water to take for the ride. Absolutely appreciated. read more

I ran in for a quick breakfast before a long day at work. I was excited to try a new spot. The service was extremely friendly and quick. The server was also very knowledgeable of the menu. Now the tables are sticky and feel dirty. This was explained as needing a coat of laquer - I was like some ajax and a brillo pad may be needed. My meal was average. I got a crabcake Benedict and it was smothered in collards. Bland collards. I didn't enjoy the meal. I will try again with a different dish after a new coat of shellac is on those tables. read more

Came here for brunch with my boyfriend. It was our first time here. I have to take notes next time cause I forgot what our meals were so bear with me ...... I can't remember the name of the biscuit I had but it had bacon, eggs and gravy, and I got a side of the red potatoes. My boyfriend got the biscuit and gravy and the tomato soup. We also tried the grits tots, which were really good surprisingly. The food was delicious in general. The biscuits were perfect. They were not too dry, It was just right and they were pretty decent size. I love them. No, I got the flight and honestly, I was only a fan of two of the flavors on the flight so our server did replace two of our flight drinks with a flavor that I actually loved so that was awesome. Our server was really nice. I cannot remember her name, but she was very helpful and tentative. The restaurant itself was clean and nice, I did not use the bathroom there so I don't know what the bathroom looks like. I always try to check out the bathroom of a restaurant to give you guys an update on that but I did not this time so I'll do better next time. I would definitely come back. read more

The food was pretty good, not as good as handsome biscuit tho. Our server was sweet and helpful. There was a 25 minute wait but that's not really their fault. The decor was quite cute. read more

Tried The Fancy Biscuit and overall it was a solid spot. The staff was very friendly, the music selection was great, and free street parking nearby was a nice bonus. The biscuit itself was excellent, the chicken was cooked really well-nice and crsipy, and the jam was genuinely delicious. A few things could be improved though. The table was a little sticky and could have been wiped down better. The ham in the grits felt unnecessary and the chunks were way too large. Also, I could do without the drizzle on top of the biscuit since it made everything pretty messy. Still worth checking out for the biscuits and chicken alone. read more

Small location but the menu packs a punch! I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical about a place called The Fancy Biscuit-how much could they truly have to offer? I was pleasantly surprised. First, the service was great. We were immediately sat with no hesitation. Our waitress was nice and the food was prompt. They have such a variety of food, coffee, non-alcoholic, and alcoholic beverages-there's something for everyone. My food was great-it definitely is a fork and knife sandwich, but the bacon was thick, the chicken was well seasoned, and the white gravy was a nice compliment. It isn't something that I would have gotten, but I'm glad I did. read more

Okay... 10/10, no notes. We grabbed seats at the bar and the service was amazing, attentive without being overbearing, and just genuinely nice people. It made the whole experience that much better. The restaurant is cute and perfect for pictures. A few high tops and your standard tables. The food was just as good,fresh, flavorful, and worth the hype. This is one of those places where everything just hits. If you're in Carytown, go. Simple. read more

I love a good biscuit so you know a place called Fancy Biscuit was high on my list to try! I wanted to order everything on the menu but I eventually settled on the Sweet Heat - a stellar combo of fried chicken with housemade pickled onions, hot honey, and pepper jelly all served on a buttermilk biscuit. The flavors worked really well together and the fried chicken was AMAZING, kind of outshone the biscuit if I'm being honest. I also got a side of tasso ham and white cheddar grits which went well with the heat of the hot honey and pepper jelly as well. I lucked out on timing a bit and got there just before a big rush so keep that in mind when visiting, this place is popular and deservingly so! read more

If you like biscuits, then you'll love this place. Seriously, my husband craves this place, haha. We had The Fan (scrumptious gravy) and Got Your Goat (sweet balanced with goat cheesy ) and they did not disappoint! The fried chicken is so tender and the flavors of both were incredible. Also had the hot chocolate (Ghirardelli mix - very good) and the chai latte. We were very satisfied. Love the art and the vibe of the place! Service is great. Will definitely go back when we're in Richmond. read more

Enjoyed a late breakfast with fabulous food and very nice service! We had the following food items; My husband had the chicken breakfast sandwich smothered in sausage gravy and he loved it and thought it was good. He also enjoyed his coffee with a shot of espresso. I had the chicken sandwich with the apple slaw, apple butter and blue cheese, all deconstructed and loved all the pieces of it. The chicken was cooked extremely well and the biscuit was really good, as well as all the other parts of the sandwich The slaw was nice and crunchy and even had a little spice to it! Also tried the sweet potatoes with bacon and it was alright! Our server was super kind and accommodating and honored all of our special requests! It's not too large inside but it is nice and airy inside. read more

The service was terrific and friendly. The biscuit was tough and definitely not flaky. If you have had home baked biscuits, then you would be very disappointed. Also had the crab quiche. The quiche was good but the piecrust was a little disappointing. Like the biscuit, the dough seemed overworked and so a little tough. read more

The fancy biscuit is great for breakfast. The atmosphere was inviting. Although it's small, my group of five was seated immediately. The artwork was really cool and they have mugs available for purchase. I ordered the veggie curry. It was spicy but not overpowering. I would've enjoyed a little more garlic flavor. The biscuit was delicious. I enjoyed my toffee iced coffee. Next time I will ask for light ice. Service was good and food came quickly. read more

I got the egg and cheese biscuit and it was delicious, I got take out and was greeted nicely by the host. Definitely would go again.

Delicious and solid portions - this place is worth coming to! They have a lot of biscuit plates (and non-biscuit plates for those interested). We got the Fan, crab cake Benedict, and a side of peach jam. The portions were so generous that we reconsidered getting a plate for each of us. Service time was as expected being that all tables were full, but we were tended to immediately upon each request. We will be back, and we look forward to trying something else on the menu. read more

Excellent combos Make many appearances. This place does it right. Fried green tomatoes, Pimento cheese with spicy sriracha swirl. Many biscuits with Bold fixings to try. Leave: belly full and smiling Share?

+ Helpful, kind staff, not overly in my face, but always close by if I needed anything. They chatted amongst each other as they worked at the bar, which shows it's a pleasant work environment. + I was seated immediately on a Wednesday morning and my food came quickly + loved that I could customize my biscuit + the biscuit sandwich was huge and flavorful + the collards had a good flavor (tangy and sweet with lots of garlic) BUT they needed to be cooked longer. I can appreciate the fact that they weren't canned greens though. + my plain latte was delicious, I asked for honey on the side, latte as reasonably priced as well + loved the personalized mug my latte came in - no WiFi, I had to go to their sister coffee/dessert shop across the street read more

Got the sweet heat biscuit which included fried chicken, pickled onions, hot honey and pepper jelly on a buttermilk biscuit. The biscuit was large and filling and the chicken was moist and cooked well with crisp breading. The pepper jelly was a bit too sweet since there was also hot honey but I overall appreciated the salty-sweet combo. The biscuit itself was delicious and buttery. The inside of the restaurant felt bright and airy. Our server was very friendly and prompt and our food was prepared quickly. Definitely will have to return to try other biscuits on their menu! read more

Get there early to put your name down! Waited about 30 minutes for 7 people on a Saturday morning at 9:30am. Quick to take service and hot and fresh biscuits and gravy! Dense but fluffy at the same time. The gravies are all good but wasn't a fan of the redeye. Large groups are doable but best for 2-6 I'd say read more

HEALTH CODE VIOLATION: I usually enjoy supporting local restaurants, but I was really concerned by what I saw during my recent visit. While sitting at the bar, I watched an employee fill a water pitcher of ice with water from a utility sink and served to a table--the same area where cleaning supplies/products and towels are nearby. This kind of sink is clearly meant for washing hands or cleaning tools, not for serving drinking water. It raised sanitation concerns for me and my date who just unknowingly drank the water before witnessing this. This is def a food safety issue and I hope management addresses this quickly and ensures staff are using designated beverage stations for water and ice. read more

The Fancy Biscuit - Potato bacon salad and my chicken biscuit, which I've sliced up. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I'm going to start by saying the customer service was 10/10!!! I wish i could remember our waitresses name she was really sweet. The place is VERY cute but parking is not the best... but that was expected with the area. I try not to complain so that is why I didn't send anything back. The honey potatoes were very undercooked. They were $4 for the bowl and left on the table. We couldn't eat them. The crabcake Benedict was 10000/10!!! We did get the egg fried hard but there is nothing that could have made that biscuit better. I got the something goat. It was a fried chicken biscuit with like this whipped goat cheese and pepper jelly. I'm not a fan of spicy so i asked for it on the side. She was more than happy to do that for me. But as i was eating. It was on the biscuit anyway and it was on the side. And I didn't like the balsamic glaze across the top... but the chicken was seasoned perfectly and the biscuit (i ate the bottom half) was very fluffy and delicious.... We would go back for something else.... read more

I was in Vegas at the very beginning of the month and had the TV in my room on Food Network, diners, drive-ins, and dives was on and it was talking about a place in Richmond so I perked up as I was going to be there for the weekend of January 16 through the 19th. I googled the fancy biscuit and it was only a couple of miles from where we were staying in downtown and they were open on Saturday and Sundays, but not Mondays. My mom and I decided to go on Saturday morning around 11 AM. We got lucky as there was no line and we found street parking out front pretty easily. As it is winter time, their patio was not open. Since they are famous for their biscuits, we both opted to get biscuit sandwiches. My mom got one with fried chicken, bacon cheddar cheese, & sausage, gravy; she enjoyed it. I got the fried chicken, goat cheese and pepper jelly; it was tasty, but I thought it would be spicier. We shared the grit tots which are made fresh in house and served with a Sriracha aioli. Everything we had was amazing. The service was fantastic as well. If they had been open on Monday we would have gone back. If you are in Richmond, they are definitely worthy of a visit. Enjoy! read more

Great place! Had the eggs and biscuit with sausage gravy. Eggs were perfect and gravy was tasty. My wife enjoyed a flight of which the Cajun gravy was her favorite. Good atmosphere and great service read more

We only ordered the biscuit and 3 gravy flight. Biscuit was very good, but nothing stood out. Think and dense. The sausage gravy was good, with good church's of sausage, again, nothing really stood out but was very good. The coffee gravy.... Guess I shouldn't be surprised it tasted slightly bitter coffee. lol. Did not like that. The third gravy also solid good very mild flavor. read more

OMG! If you are in the neighborhood, you got to have this! We are just driving through Richmond and look for a place to have breakfast. They are pretty close to 95 (it was around 2 miles off the highway) and literally half a block from the toll road. Food was exquisite!!! Everything tastes good! We had the fried green tomato, the big apple (really good fried chicken biscuit with this slaw and blue cheese that is just right!!), the grits is super tasty with the right texture! Coffee and chai were really good too. Staff is fantastic! Friendly and stuff comes on fast (we were there early, so it wasn't packed yet, but still). We were fighting who is going to drive afterwards cos the food was so good! read more

So... seemingly understaffed during a rush they did an exceptional job. Good advice on food and drink choices as well as accommodating some particular orders. the food was crazy. my 17 who considers himself a chicken sandwich connoisseur at his massive sandwich in 4 bites. 5 mins. might be a record. Biscuits and gravy top notch. no complaints. the mood in the place stayed up even though they were a bit disheveled. thanks for a good time and a great meal. read more

Stopped here again with the wife, still just as good as the first time we went. Our server sat in a nice quiet place and the restaurant is broken up, so it does not get too loud. We both tried different things this time all of them cooked perfection, my wife even enjoyed the sausage gravy and biscuits which normally she would not eat or even try in other places. If you go, I would definitely recommend the grit tots, they were definitely a repeat order this last visit :) read more
