Not gonna lie, I wish I was able to eat breakfast there regularly. It is that good. It is super cozy and the vibe is modern yet nostalgic? Anyway, the apple butter is amazing! And the grits.... THE GRITS...
★★★★★
Tasty and quick! Just the way I like it. I ordered over easy eggs, grits, a biscuit and a pancake. The grits were nice and creamy and the chicken sausage patties were yummy! I was in and out in less than 30 minutes.

The creamy grits and biscuits with apple butter are incredible. I also had the peaches and cream Belgian waffle that was super fluffy and soft and crunchy in all the right places. Everything was delicious.

WOW!!! I can say I have been to an original Atlanta establishment. This place was awesome! I had the Dirty Bird, waffle with chicken strips, gravy and egg....holy smokes what a breakfast! Give this place the "must go" when in Atlanta.

Great place with vegetarian options! It was my first time going and I can't wait to go back. The French toast was delicious! Our server was nice. Chad was great. Top notch service!

WOW… I am not one to normally review a place but here I am. I got the Flying Biscuit Breakfast and there was not a single thing I didn't like. I could eat those biscuits every day for the rest of my life and be perfectly happy.

We move quickly for partners who are ready. Clear timelines, mutual accountability.
There are many factors that determine your initial investment — location, size, and proximity to affluent areas, to name a few. You can expect your initial investment to range from $766,750 to $1,171,350. This includes the franchise fee, working capital, and everything you'll need to get your doors open.
While specific earnings cannot be promised, we are happy to discuss financial information published in our FDD. Later in the process we encourage you to contact existing franchisees to complete your due diligence.
Comprehensive 4-week training programs are required for 2 members of your team. Training takes place in the Atlanta area. Ongoing training is provided by our team.
Guidance on location selection — including demographic targets, site criteria, and potential market analysis — will be discussed with the candidate and our Franchise Development Team.
We are looking to expand in the Southeast — GA, FL, SC, NC, TX, LA, MS, AL, VA, KY, TN, WV, MD, and DE.
From the time you sign a franchise agreement, the process takes anywhere from 3–18 months.
No, but previous restaurant experience is recommended.
