Man! I was hungry and I decided to stop into The Big Biscuit. The hostess greeted me promptly and escorted me to my seat. Moments later I was greeted by Danielle and she asked if I'd ever been here before. I told her I was starving and I just needed a mess of food. Danielle said that I wanted a 3 car pile up! She showed it to me on the menu. I said "Yup! That's what I want!" I sipped on my coffee and the it arrived... WOW! This thing just changed my life! I can't believe this breakfast existed here in my hometown and I never heard of it! I managed to eat half of it and now my stomach hurts and I hate myself! Pretty much everything i wanted for breakfast all piled into one. Pancakes with gravy? This was incredible! You definitely need to stop in and see if you can eat this thing.

Great food. Good prices. The Alamo burrito has big flavors. Not overly stuffed with potato filler. Biscuits are light and buttery. Gravy was a little thin but is seasoned well. If you’re in the area, it’s a good little breakfast spot. Service is phenomenal.

I love this location and of course The Big Biscuit! I come here specifically for the country fried chicken & gravy! It’s delicious. I want to give a huge shout out to our regular server Peyton who is absolutely amazing! He always takes care of me and my little family. He’s is absolutely the best server hands down (give that man a raise) I get nothing but good vibes when I’m there. The hostess is great as well and seats us quickly. Keep up the good work!
