Biscuit Bitch

Biscuit Bitch is a Southern-style breakfast restaurant at 1909 1st Avenue in downtown Seattle, Washington, a short walk from Pike Place Market. The cuisine is Southern comfort food, built on large buttermilk biscuits smothered in gravy, with a cheeky name and irreverent menu that have made it a recognisable brunch stop for visitors. The signature dishes include biscuits and gravy, Southern breakfast plates and the fried chicken biscuit, with options that include eggs, grits, sausage and vegetarian gravy variants. Portions are generous and heavy, so many visitors share or take leftovers. The restaurant serves breakfast and brunch daily, with the busiest period on weekend mornings. The dining room is small, casual and bright, with counter ordering, a loud and busy atmosphere and no dress code. Coffee, juice and breakfast drinks are the main beverages, and the focus is on food rather than a wine programme. Prices are modest, at roughly $12 to $20 per person, which is good value for the portions. No reservations are accepted, so walk-in queues of 20 minutes or more are common on weekend mornings, and weekday visits or early arrival help reduce the wait. The location near the market makes it convenient for visitors planning a morning of market browsing, and it is within walking distance of the waterfront and downtown hotels.
