    Chicken biscuit=amazing: spicy jam+PERFECT biscuit+juicy chicken! It is greasy; have napkins! The kale was great, the pimento omelet was a complex favor combo, and the potatoes? KILLER

    Winner...You can get decent breakfast and brunch here. I tried grits at the first time. It was so good. You can imagine asian style soup. Get a table, not seats on the bar. Its uncomfortable.

    Catch up w/ business partner. special - butternut squash rosemary scramble. It was terrific! Usu disappointed with eggs. They were perfect! Hash browns were hard and over salted. Staff was friendly!

    Freaking amazing biscuits! Was hesitant to order the chicken biscuits - don't. Great for sharing. Great French press coffee, great server, great homemade jelly, just great.

    Loved the “Chicken Biscuit” entree along with the French press coffee! The roasted red pepper glaze gave the biscuit a flavor to be craved! 🥰

    The wait is worth it. Best Chicken & Waffles. Short rib hash & eggs is such an awesome and fullfilling breakfast. Huge bagel! Fresh squeezed OJ!

    Food / service were stellar. I had Fried Egg Sandwich, a little pricy but healthy and delish and with it the palmetto cheese grits. Equally great. Service by Jared was wonderful. Quaint cottage atmosp

    Don't skip on the biscuit. Freaking amazing. Omelettes are huge! Also, great coffee and they have almond milk. Do not serve lattes though, just French press and drip. Batdorf & Bronson.

    I ordered the carrot-cake pancakes with two eggs over-easy, four bacon strips, and hash-brown potatoes. The carrot-cake flavors were convincing enough, the eggs were fine, and the bacon was crisp. Read more

    Adorable local place. Great atmosphere, friendly service, delicious food. Local French pressed coffee, blueberry crumble pancake, burger on a waffle, pear salad.. Definitely check this place out!

    Caprese omelet is fantastic (try it with egg whites!). Potatoes a great side. Friend loved the blueberry crumble pancakes. Biscuit was overdone (hard on the bottom and too greasy). Great service!

    Food was out in less than 5 min. The pimento cheese omelette was delicious. Cheese was rich and they were generous with thick-sliced bacon. Biscuit and pepper jelly were equally awesome.

    Seasonal scramble was delicious - had sweet potatoes, red onion & cilantro. Chicken sausage was just ok, little chewy, wouldn't reorder. Pimento grits & biscuit with homemade blueberry jam was yummy.

    Have you ever been down Roswell Road on a weekend morning and noticed a line coming out of a small building? The masses are lining up at Buttermilk Kitchen and drooling over the fried chicken biscuit. Read more

    Absolutely amazing. Incredibly delicious. Even a standard meal of two poached eggs and breakfast potatoes is crave-worthy. We go every weekend!

    The chicken sandwich is excellent! Make sure you put the pickles on the sandwich - it brings out more flavor!

    A great little low key place with a nice small menu. The best organic Apple Juice too. The Fried Egg BLT is delicious.

    Try the Mexican scramble with the beans on the side. The eggs taste better mixed only with the avocado crema and pico de gallo.

    Delicious food made up for the long, long wait. And they passed out free water and muffins while we waited, so can't complain. Try the kale!

    Coffee isn't sitting in a urn for who knows how long, or on a burner since 5am. French pressed to order. Locally roasted Batdorf & Bronson Dancing Goats Blend.

    Don't believe the hype. There's always a 1 hour+ wait on weekends but really the food is just plain average. I guess biscuits are okay but... Really? This is the south, biscuits are good everywhere.

    The chicken biscuit was...Ok...A little dry and overcooked for my taste. The chicken itself was juicy and well seasoned. And the red pepper jelly was good. Pimento cheese grits were room temp (ugh)

    Go early before the place fills up and get the pimento cheese omelet. Best way to start a Sunday.

    Order "Dad's Waffle". You wouldn't think that a burger, sourdough waffle, butter and syrup goes together, but it does.

    Overpriced but my pancakes were phenomenal. I would come back here, but only will be yuppie friends who don't mind a $50+ brunch bill with no alcohol included.
