5 Restaurant Chains With the Best Biscuits, According to Southern Diners

Southern diners say these restaurant chains serve the fluffiest, most buttery biscuits anywhere.

A really nice biscuit made from scratch is a staple southern food, perfect to have as a breakfast side or as a foundation for a delicious sandwich. While many restaurants serve up biscuits, not all of them are made equal. Luckily there are plenty of spots where the biscuits are buttery, flakey, fluffy, and delicious.  Here are five restaurant chains with the best biscuits, according to southern diners.

Biscuitville serves up amazing fresh biscuits. “With a name like ‘Biscuitville,’ I couldn’t just drive by, now could I?” one Columbus, SC-based diner said. “I wasn’t disappointed. The biscuits were light and fluffy, and on the larger side. While I went with the standard basin egg and cheese, they offer some more interesting choices, which I’ll definitely try next time.”
