    Brisket
    Gillian S.

    My friend recommended this place to me and I decided to hop on over and give it a go!!!! I was dead set on trying their bacon sandwich but when I saw brisket on their menu.... Well... the heart wants what the heart wants right? It was the perfect sized sandwich for breakfast!!! And I watched him cook and toast everything in front of me!! It was delicious, the biscuit itself was buttery/warm and the brisket was perfect!!! I also appreciated how he cooked the egg into a patty like shape so that it doesn't all fall out when you bite into the sandwich The place itself is really small, but the two men working were so sweet and really helpful!! They made sure everything was perfect before I left! I cannot wait to come back and try more!!!!

    I was introduced to the Roaming Biscuit this summer and have gone back many times and can happily say the quality is consistently 10/10. I get the OG with American cheese and it's the perfect creamy crunchy bite. I love adding hot sauce to pull it all together. My friends get their sandwiches with pimento cheese and want me to tell you the strongly recommended pimento on the beef sandwich. Service is fast and it's an easy order and go situation. Feels like a place only locals know (I'm new to Cleveland, so I'm a bad judge) in that special familiar face, secret gem way. A must try for Sunday mornings.

    Breakfast sandwich with pimento cheese

    I eat here once a week as a weekend treat. It's delicious and convenient. Pimento cheese is a must. The breakfast sandwich is big and comes out hot and fresh each time.

    Brisket with American cheese

    Stopped here on a Saturday morning for breakfast. So glad we did! Small space near west side market, but there was plenty of street parking. It is take out only, no where to sit inside. They do have online ordering which may be worthwhile as they were busy. We didn't have to wait long. The staff were very friendly. We ordered brisket and cheese biscuit and the OG with American cheese. Both were delicious and we were particularly impressed with the brisket! We would definitely return.

    Met the owner at a recent Yelp event, and we enjoyed her food options there so it prompted us to visit her nearby (to where we live) brick and mortar shop. Heading out to a Metroparks nature walk and needed a quick bite, so the timing for this visit was perfect. We decided to order an O.G. and a brisket sandwich options and share then at their small window counter (not seating, just this little walk-up counter). Chef got busy making our goodies as we chatted and perused the space. They offer bottled beverages (nothing hot) and both savory and sweet biscuit options. You can also purchase a variety of jams and honey. The sandwiches came out nice and hot and we dug in. Each biscuit was topped with fluffy eggs and melted cheese (your choice of several) then the protein...bacon on the O.G. and sliced brisket on the other. Each was super-filling and really hit the spot as we prepared for a snowy walk through the Metroparks. So glad we finally made it out to this cute little business, please drop by and help this small business thrive. I know we will!

    Biscuits and Gravy Special
    Jacob B.

    5 Stars, not given lightly by me. We heard about this place from Tiktok and decided to drive the hour to see what was up. Staff was absolutely amazing, very friendly to first timers, and the owner was quite lovely. The place was clean, bright and just what we needed for breakfast. Perhaps a downside was no seating but we were going shopping so it wasn't a big deal. The food though was wow. We ordered the Brisket biscuit, lemon bar, and biscuits and gravy special (specials aren't always available). The biscuits and gravy was very reminiscent of biscuits and heavy grits I had in Louisiana, and geez they were amazing. The best brisket I've had in Ohio was at Landmark in Lakewood and this was easily on par with them, and the lemon was incredible. The flavor combinations exhibited clearly show the talent of the owner and I can see why Maria Cribbs and other Cleveland celebs have rated it so highly.

    Loved it here! Staff were super friendly and kind! They let me know about all the specials. I ordered the bacon egg and cheese biscuit - wow! The bacon was so thick!!!! I really got the bang for my buck. The cheese was melted, biscuit was a good size! Everything I got was amazing.

    Menu (Apr 2024)

    We were walking around Ohio City to explore and fill some time before our intended restaurant opened. As we were browsing, we saw a line of people forming in front of The Roaming Biscuit. Naturally, we had to take a peek. I'm normally pretty skeptical of biscuits outside of the South but the operation looked pretty interesting, with (I believe) a husband and wife team slinging out some delicious looking food. The interior of the store is quite sparse, as if they owners had just moved to this address. There's basically just a cabinet with the store goods, the menu, and a single counter to stand and eat at along the window. The kitchen in the back looked a bit disorganized and made me wonder if this was a temporary pop-up rather than a permanent fixture. Maybe they are still moving in? At any rate, we decided to hold off getting anything since we still had our other plans, but we put The Roaming Biscuit on our to-try list. It turned out the restaurant we wanted to go to had some oven issues and was missing a couple of the major items that we wanted to eat. We decided only to get a single entree there and head back to The Roaming Biscuit to complete our meal. We weren't too hungry and got a single biscuit to share. Humble Biscuit w/ Pimento ($4.50) - This is very interested biscuit - it seems to be flour based but mixed with a bit of corn meal giving a yellow color and a cornbread-like taste. The biscuit is super buttery - I just took a single nibble at first and the biscuit felt like it was half made of butter. There's a great crust on the exterior that adds a nice crusty crunch in some areas. The interior is super fluffy, flaky, and buttery dense. The biscuit is cut in half and then toasted in a pan, which creates additional crust along the cut. Then there is pimento cheese added between the slices. The pimento cheese consists of soft shredded cheddar mixed with pimentos, green onion, and mayo, giving creaminess, a bit of a tang, and fresh herbal notes. It's not watery or thin at all and gives the biscuit appropriate moisture. This was among the best biscuits I've had in the Midwest. (5/5) Bathrooms - None that are customer accessible. I'm glad we made a stop at the The Roaming Biscuit because their food is delicious. I definitely recommend giving them a try.

    Biscuit Brisket was a good grub
    Penelope M.

    Breakfast was bountiful in Roaming Biscuit. The options were all hearty even if you just get the Humble. I got the OG and it was scrumptious! Yes, the biscuit was buttery and fluffy. We also tried the Brisket and it was filling. The staff was so friendly and the place was so cute- take out only, but so convenient because all we had to do, was go down the stairs. They were only open 3days in a week though, but we lucked out. If you walk a few feet, grab a great cup of coffee from Rising Star Coffee Roasters.

The sandwich was good and tasted really fresh. I really enjoyed the burrata. I also did not miss the fact that there was no sauce or spread on it. I'm not a huge fan of crispy or hard bread, so I think I would have loved it even more if there was a soft bread option. I definitely look forward to returning though, maybe they do have another bread option available, I didn't ask. You can also customize the sandwich, so I would have added some arugula. The cookie was incredible!

The best sandwich they make, in my opinion, is the fresh & fried tomato sandwich. I watch their Instagram posts like a hawk in August when I know the local tomato crop should be coming in, and then I try to go at least twice while it's on the menu. Sitting outside on a sunny day with fried tomato juice dripping down your chin is a version of my heaven. Don't sleep on the rest of the menu, though, where the pickle selection, house-made sodas and egg creams, and baked goods almost out shine the mains.

What I really like about this place is the fresh meat and the disclaimer about the meats and how it's prepare.
