Bird Bird Biscuit: The Hyped Up Biscuit Sandwich Purveyors

In the heart of Austin's Cherrywood neighborhood, a new fast-casual restaurant has taken the city by storm with its unique concept of serving up delectable biscuit sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. Bird Bird Biscuit, owned by Ryan McElroy and chef Brian Batch, has been generating quite the buzz since its soft opening last month.

As Eater photographer Courtney Pierce recently discovered during a tour of the restaurant's small but cheery space, the interior design is thanks to Lilianne Steckel, while a mural with egg-centric graphics from Austin artist Will Bryant adds to the charm. The 17-seat indoor dining area and 16 outdoor patio seats offer an intimate setting for customers to savor their biscuits.

But what makes Bird Bird Biscuit truly special? According to chef Brian Batch, every single biscuit has a unique personality to it, and he has a personal relationship with each of his creations. The recipe was even created with the help of 'one particular Austin biscuit whisperer.' This attention to detail shows in the restaurant's menu items, including Bird Bird Bacon (a classic sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese), Queen Beak (fried chicken thighs with cayenne-black pepper honey and bacon-infused chipotle mayonnaise), and sweet 'dough-doughs' (circles of biscuit dough fried and tossed in cinnamon sugar).

The biscuits have been perfected to hold up a sandwich, making them the star attraction of Bird Bird Biscuit. In fact, the restaurant has already had to double its biscuit-making capacity after selling out several times during its first weeks.

Food bloggers such as This Doesn't Suck have raved about the biscuits, describing them as 'light and flaky and melt in your mouth.' With a menu this simple yet impressive, it's no wonder Bird Bird Biscuit has become enamored with the city. So, what are you waiting for? Get ready to swoon over these buttery bread wonders and experience the early word on this biscuit sandwich purveyor for yourself.

Bird Bird Biscuit is open from 7 a.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. on weekends. Don't miss your chance to try out their delicious biscuits, as they have been previewing their recipes at pop-ups around town since last November and are set to officially open this Thursday, June 28, at 2701 Manor Road.
