"Don't be turned away by the line out the door, all those people know what awaits (and the counter is just inside). This unassuming, converted old house is the location of any true biscuit-lovers desire. From the classic Buttermilk to the staple Cheddar Biscuit, Morsel & Bean serves up breakfast just how you like it. The biscuits alone are plenty to satisfy, but for those searching for a little more, Morsel will turn any of their scrumptious creations into a breakfast sandwich or smother them in homemade gravy. Make sure to order some espresso to compliment your meal and your lazy Sunday will be complete." - Brooks Running Global Creative
"If you’re in the University District early enough, you’re probably either a student, professor, or you know about the excellent biscuits at Morsel. This counter spot serves their huge biscuits with spreads like strawberry balsamic jam or chocolate hazelnut butter, but also in sandwich form. The best of that bunch is the Spanish Fly, which has a fried egg, prosciutto, manchego, arugula, and pickled pepper aioli. These travel well if you’re in a hurry, but you should really sit down and eat your biscuit with a cup of coffee." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
"This U District biscuit shop offers the kind of folkloric biscuits that breakfast lovers dream of — warm, pillowy interior, crispy exterior, flaky bite. There’s even a gluten-free version. The “fast break,” Morsel’s primary breakfast sandwich, is a behemoth stack of eggs, fatty bacon, and cheddar cheese on a biscuit of your choice that’s smeared with savory tomato jam. You can also opt to grab a buttermilk biscuit plain with butter and jam on the side; there’s strawberry balsamic jam, chocolate hazelnut spread, and raspberry jam, among others." - Mark DeJoy
"Breakfast isn’t a big deal in the U-District, except when it comes to the excellent biscuits at Morsel. There’s a different selection of flavors every day (hope for smoked onion black pepper), and you can get yours as a sandwich, topped with sausage gravy, or paired with a housemade spread like chocolate hazelnut butter. Make sure you order the Spanish Fly no matter what." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley

The “fast break,” Morsel’s signature sandwich, is a behemoth stack of eggs, fatty bacon, and cheddar cheese on a biscuit of your choice that’s smeared with earthy tomato jam. You can also opt to grab one of its buttermilk biscuits plain with butter and jam on the side; there’s strawberry balsamic jam, chocolate hazelnut jam, and raspberry jam, among others. Morsel usually has gluten-free biscuits available." - Harry Cheadle
