Denver Biscuit Company Review

Yay, comfort food!

If you’re looking for a hip breakfast place in Denver, Colorado, look no further than Denver Biscuit Company.

With three locations in Denver and one in Aurora, you are sure to get your fix of biscuits and gravy yummyness. Another perk: Each location shares space with Atomic Cowboy and Fat Sully’s Pizza.

So if your friend is like, “Ugh. I don’t like biscuits and gravy…” You can be like, “Cool. I’ll make new friends at Denver Biscuit Company/Atomic Cowboy/Fat Sully’s Pizza.”

You don’t need that kind of negativity in your life.

When to go

Denver Biscuit Company is open 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m., Monday-Friday and 8:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The earlier you arrive, the better. This place is packed on the weekends. Plan for a 30-90 minute wait on Saturday or Sunday morning.

What to expect

Be ready to parallel park at all Denver locations. Street parking can be tricky to find, you may end up parking several blocks away. Expect to wait for a table. There is very little space to stand inside and wait. Bring a jacket and hang out on the benches out front. Once you are seated, expect greatness. The food is so good, you will be back soon enough for more.

“I’ll die happy if I never have another biscuit sandwich again. I had the Winona and it was so good I’m left thinking about it hours later. Coffee was good and self serve. I always love that especially with how popular the place is, but the wait wasn’t bad. Service was awesome. I definitely recommend.” – Cassandra Matkin, Google reviews

What to order

Everything is good. If you’re looking for the classic, go with Biscuits and Gravy (pictured above). My husband gets this every time and I’m always jealous. I’ve also gotten the Chicken Biscuit Pot Pie (below, left). It was delicious, but I was missing that gravy that Denver Biscuit Company is known for. I’d also recommend the Cordon Bleu which has buttermilk fried chicken, Tender Belly ham, cheddar cheese & local Colorado honey butter (below, middle). On our first visit, we ordered a biscuit cinnamon roll (below, right) to split. Boy, that thing was big! We ate half and took the rest home.

Best Brunch In Denver

One of my favorite date activities is going out for brunch with my husband after sleeping in on Sunday morning. Denver is full of incredible restaurants offering scrambles, Eggs Benedict, pancakes and your classic continental. Another perk: breakfast typically feels a lot healthier than going out for dinner because you have the option of ordering eggs, mixed fruit and a kale smoothie — YUM!

Here are a few must try breakfast joints in Denver.

Denver brunchSnooze an A.M. Eatery

Snooze opened their doors in Denver, CO 10 years ago and have since added locations in California, Arizona and Texas. You can expect a 45-90 minute wait on any given weekend but trust me, it’s worth it. My go to order is the Bella! Bella! Benny Benedict but people swear by the Breakfast Tacos. No matter what you order, it’s delicious.

Urban Egg

What this place lacks in curb appeal, it makes up for in flavor. Located in a strip mall in Highlands Ranch, CO about 20 miles south of Denver, Urban Egg Eatery is a locally owned and operated restaurant named #10 on Urbanspoon’s list of 101 Great Breakfasts in the U.S. Substitute your side of hash browns for a pancake of your choice for a small up-charge. They are phenomenal.

Jelly Cafe

If you’re looking for a delicious scramble with a side of Instagram worthy jelly donuts, look no further than Jelly Cafe, this trendy diner located in Capitol Hill. They also offer a bottomless mimosa for $12, you know, if you’re into that sort of thing. *shamelessly raises hand*

Denver Biscuit Company

Best brunch in Denver“Biscuits smothered in…” should be their slogan because practically everything on the menu includes a biscuit smothered in something. What started as The Biscuit Bus food truck developed into a well established breakfast spot named Denver Biscuit Company that has caught the attention of Guy Fieri from Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. If you’re looking for a good hearty home-cooked meal (and an opportunity to brag to people about how you’ve been to a place that has been on TV), this is the place to be. Read my full review here.

Lucile’s Creole Cafe

This place is what my nieces would call, “totes adorbs.” They have 6 locations across Colorado and are wildly popular with the locals. The restaurant’s theme is “Lucile’s Creole Café, Exploring Creole Cooking from Around the World,” and you truly do feel as though you’ve step foot in New Orleans the moment you enter the door. Trust me, I went to New Orleans one time. I’m clearly an expert.
