Biscuit and Bean

Shelley Holm

Exceed breakfast sandwich and latte. I was killing time and happened to walk by this shop. It smelled so good! This biscuit is so much better than the traditional baking powder biscuit. It has a thicker, heavier texture to it. It has a wonderful crunch to it. Perfect! Loved the latte and the very friendly service! Thank you. I'll be back!

We originally were going to go to Whole Foods for breakfast, but when we arrived there wasn’t any hot breakfast. Searching around the Ballard area, we found this biscuit and coffee shop. There was construction out front of the restaurant but we didn’t mind having to walk a couple blocks on this fresh cool morning. The restaurant was decorated for Halloween, which was super cute and aesthetic. Nice small little shop, has room for a few tables and window bar seating. The biscuit flavors were displayed so we could be wowed by the size of them. We both ordered the signature, white cheddar, prosciutto, scrambled eggs, mixed greens and mama lill’s pepper aioli. I got mine on the Italian herb biscuit and my partner had his on the cheddar and green onion biscuit. We also ordered Two sides of the sausage gravy. Next time, one side of the gravy is enough for both of us. We also ordered a caramel latte and matcha latte with oat milk and honey. We didn’t have to wait long for our order. Our drinks were the perfect temperature and sweetness. The barista did a wonderful job. We took our sandwiches to the Ballard Locks to enjoy while we watched the ships . The biscuit sandwiches were amazing. The biscuit it self was flavorful, and soft , but it was hardy enough that it held the sandwich together. The aioli was the star that pulled all of the flavors of the prosciutto, egg, mixed greens and cheddar together with the biscuit. The gravy was thick, luscious, big chunks of sausage throughout. Spooned on top of each bite of the sandwich was perfect. What a great way to start a morning. Will definitely be coming back to try to the rest of the menu.

Cozy quiet, nice seating and music atmosphere, with very warm friendly service! The biscuits are perfectly cooked in texture and taste! Great variety of sandwiches made fresh and even their drip coffee is delicious! Great small business and what a find in DT Ballard, while waiting for my hair appointment! 😻

Sublimely delicious. So happy they’re back, and this location I think will be better for them in terms of foot traffic and not just as a destination as the previous one along 15th was. The signature is a glorious creation. The Mama Lil’s aioli is literally the best condiment I’ve ever had, no hyperbole. I’d put it on anything and everything. It’s fantastic. Also, never heard of prosciutto in a breakfast sandwich but I have no idea why given how well it worked. Biscuits are perfect. Fresh, fluffy, not too dense. I’m elated these guys decided to grace Ballard with their presence again.

Coziest atmosphere - lovely seating options and very friendly customer service. Food was amazing and they have options for everyone. The tomato paste on the garden was delicious! Coffee was very good and they had an arnold palmer that was perfect sweetness level! Affordable and filling - would come back again and again

Don’t sleep on this place!! Best biscuit in Seattle!! Amazing coffee- amazing staff!! I got a hazelnut latte and the signature breakfast sandwich on cheddar chive biscuit. SO GOOD!!

Delicious food and great service! Biscuits were big and I recommend getting gravy on the side if you go for a biscuit sandwich. Coffee tasted amazing. Will dine there again.

I don’t normally like biscuits, but this shop made me a believer. These are huge biscuits and you don’t even need water while you are eating them, they are so light and moist. I’m so glad my son chose this shop!

I wandered in (my first time in the neighborhood) and the space itself is warm and welcoming. It has a nice comfy vibe. The staff was friendly and helped me pick a spread for my biscuit. The coffee was delicious too. Such a cute spot that I'll definitely visit again if I'm in the area! The biscuit itself is huge and I could honestly eat it on its own without the spread. The spread is delicious and not too sweet.

Being from the south, biscuits and gravy were always staple breakfast. I never imagined I’d be in Seattle eating the biscuits and gravy I’ve ever had. I had the cheddar and green onion biscuits with mushroom leek gravy 3 years ago, and I have been dreaming about it since. Today I had the chance to try it again, and it still lives up to hype.

Stopped in for (Delicious) biscuits and gravy. The staff were all friendly and conversational, creating a very relaxed environment. My impression is that people of all makes and models all welcome here, which added to the comfortable vibe.

Y’ALL. The Ezra????? The gravy???? The kindness of the service??? What are you doing not eating here yet? Why are you even looking at reviews? Just go! I did take out and got 5 sandwiches for my friends. One of the orders was gluten free and their first question was “is it for an allergy?” and gave everything in totally different bags. I know that seems bare minimum but it really isn’t at some places! I can’t recommend this place enough.

My family visited today and we had two biscuit sandwiches, biscuits and gravy and biscuit with jam! Kiddo review: the food was really yummy and they were really kind. And I couldn’t stop eating the biscuits and gravy. Kiddo review #2: It was great!!!!!

Been a fan of this place since they were up on 17th and 59th and am so glad they are back in Ballard. They serve some of the best indulgent breakfast sandwiches! From the Calabrian chili mayo to the house made pickled jalepenos, to the cheesy chive biscuits — everything is perfect. Every time. Love you biscuit and bean!

The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They were knowledgeable about gluten allergies and their gluten free biscuit is too rate! Loved this place and highly recommend. They are also in a cute part of town.

I needed to get something to eat, but I admit I am super picky about biscuits. When you have eaten the best biscuits made from scratch by hand by an aunt in Mississippi, you have a strong basis for comparison. A good biscuit IS hard to find. These are some of the best biscuits I have had in Seattle in the past 20 years. I opted for the plain buttermilk biscuit and it met all of my expectations and then some. They are moist, light as air and, and I'm not saying this as a bad thing, but they're bland, which made them the perfect foundation for any type of topping, from plait butter, to sweet jams or honey, to the savory gravies that they excel at. They had good crispy outsides and they offered two savory gravies that were both rich and creamy & not overly seasoned. The mushroom was golden brown with mushrooms and the one with leeks, a light, cheesy, super creamy, I think I might have wanted to see the leeks in the gravy for the sake of color, but the spice of the leeks was definitely there. Both of them were perfect for the biscuit, and being able to have a split of each gravy was just awesome. It is enough of a meal in itself, I could not finish the one serving I got. I did have an egg added to it, and it went beautifully. Will definitely stop in again.

Sooo good! The only reason why this isn’t five stars is because it’s a little pricey. I was craving some biscuits and gravy and was in the area so I decided to stop by for breakfast. I got the Ezra (a bacon, egg, and cheese, biscuit sandwich slathered in gravy) and it hit the spot. I also got their matcha latte and it was unsweetened but good, nothing special there. I definitely recommend if your in the area and are craving some comfort food for breakfast, or biscuits and gravy in general!

The biscuit sandwiches are very large and I don’t think they are easy to pick up. However, using a knife and fork to tackle was ok. The signature sandwich with the cheddar biscuit was tasty, especially the prosciutto with the sauce. While the flavor was okay, the biscuit itself was good but could have been more moist.

I stopped here on a whim and was excited to try a breakfast biscuit sandwich. The sandwich was huge for the price which was awesome, I was very full. My biscuit was dry which was a bummer but I can see how there’s potential! It had a nice cozy vibe and simple menu which I appreciate.

Food is pretty good. Unfortunately, I cannot support a business that asks for tips at checkout when there is no reason to do so. Additionally, they have stickers saying to bus your own table. I will return here if they decide to remove tipping from the point of sale terminal.

Cute little spot but the customer service needs work. Ordered a cheddar and onion biscuit but they rang me up a plain biscuit instead, which I didn't realize until I sat down to eat. Went back to get the right biscuit but they wouldnt switch it out for me because it wasn't what I paid for, I would have to buy another one. They also forgot to give me my drink which I had to go back and grab. The people in front of me, they were also having trouble with not getting the right food so not sure what was going on.
