Biscuits for breakfast. It’s a simple premise and the grand promise that sustains the business of Stilesboro Biscuits and the breakfast habits of regulars and visitors alike.
If you want a biscuit for breakfast, this is your place. You’ll find biscuits listed 15 different ways on the menu, depending on your meat, gravy and butter choices. There’s an assortment of sausage links and patties, chicken, pork tenderloin, ham, steak, egg and cheese options, along with plain or butter-only biscuits.
If there are biscuits in heaven, angels probably borrowed the recipe and learned to bake them at Stilesboro Biscuits.
No matter which you order, that biscuit will have a perfectly-browned exterior with a soft, almost-crumbly interior. You’ll crave a second bite even before that first taste of melt-in-your-mouth goodness clears your tongue.
Let’s be clear, if there are biscuits in heaven, angels probably borrowed the recipe and learned to bake them at Stilesboro Biscuits. You want proof? A sign above the kitchen entrance reads, “Angels Gather Here!”
If you want an egg, get it on a biscuit, or as a side. And since it’s the South, of course you can order a bowl of grits. Plus, you can get some biscuit-adjacent cinnamon rolls and brownies, from family recipes and baked to a similar level of perfection.
But if you’re looking for a fancy breakfast spot, look elsewhere. You won’t find an extensive menu of omelets, breakfast bowls, waffles, or pancakes. And definitely no fancy coffee drinks concocted by headset-wearing baristas.
We often stand in a line stretching out the door. But the building is small, service is quick, and the line moves fast, so don’t let the line deter you. Inside, there’s a small seating area that’s often full. So on many visits, we get our biscuits to go — enjoying them at our nearby home or eating in the car enroute to another stop.
Be forewarned: Stilesboro Biscuits operates on a very limited schedule. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday, restaurant hours of 7 am to 11:30 am. On Sunday, opening is 8 am and closing is noon.
