"Atlanta's Original Brunch Spot The Flying Biscuit, owned by waitress and chef Delia Champion and Indigo Girls member Emily Saliers, opened in 1993 and since then has expanded its original Candler Park location and franchised all around town. At least 5,000 of their famous biscuits are made every day at each location. As you can tell, those biscuits are the main attraction. They're sweeter than the standard biscuit and are served with cranberry apple butter. Also recommended: an omelet with a side of their "creamy dreamy" grits or the Eggstra-Ordinary Breakfast, pictured here."

Great establishment!! Great people had a positive experience, and not to mention the food was amazing. I will definitely be coming back here the next time I'm in Atlanta. Thanks to all the staff who made us feel welcomed and the amazing food !!! I had the peach waffles with grits ,eggs, and sausage, and yes, it was to die for .

I had the southern scramble and it was absolutely delightful. Sheesh. Although I would’ve loved more collared greens, the food was rich and succulent, and the grits were creamy and the biscuits were warm and on point. The service was great too. I wish it had more collared greens though. Definitely 10/10. This was my first time in Atlanta and I’ll definitely be back

Came here solo for my first real meal for my first visit to Atlanta and man, what a great first pick! The place is so cute and gives cafe/diner! The staff’s energy is definitely great and it was perfect for being by myself! The food was delicious! (I tried the flying biscuit breakfast (chose scrambled eggs, bacon, and potatoes… 10/10! … so well seasoned!) For my drink, I had the mangomosa (delicious!) I would definitely recommend this place!

The Flying Biscuit in Atlanta offers a delightfully down home dining experience with amazing Southern breakfast food and exceptional service. Our server, Illiana, provided impeccable service throughout our meal. My wife tried the peaches and cream waffles paired with cream cheese grits and was thoroughly delighted. I opted for the hot chicken and waffles, which were equally fantastic. The entire dining experience at The Flying Biscuit exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it for a satisfying and enjoyable meal.

Food was delicious. Everything was delicious. There were some minor mistakes with my order but they were handled with care. Did have to wait outside. There should be a better waiting procedure than to stand outside especially in this cold winter season. However, the food did not disappoint. Tables were very small.

Delicious breakfast & great service! Biscuits were wonderful. Apple butter.....yum!! Waffles were great. Chicken sandwich was super crispy! The only downside to me was the lack of space, table are packed in tight.... but I get that's part of the vibe.

One of Atlanta’s OG breakfast places, and still one of the best. Stopped in to the Piedmont location after being away from Atlanta for a few years, food and hospitality haven't changed. Be prepared to wait in line on weekends, the place is as tiny as it is popular. But the wait usually isn't long. And definitely worth it.

The food was soooo good. Listen those creamy grits were surprisingly good. I had the stuffed French toast meal and even the cheese eggs were good. Seemed like they were cooked at home in a skillet and not on a griddle. My server was great as well. Personable and easy going.
