Quite a long wait but showed the place was popular. Not great for big groups though! Food was delicious, biscuits are really good. Got the mimosa flight which was enjoyable. Friendly service, food came out pretty quick. Nice décor and the outside area in the back was beautiful. Also, gorgeous bathrooms lol

The Fan: Fried chicken biscuit with bacon and sausage gravy. Collard greens and a sweet potato hash. Also, an apple cinnamon roll. Skip the sides; but that biscuit is delicious. Flavorful gravy, Crispy bacon and juicy chicken. Cinnamon roll is good, not $10 good. If you are local to Richmond, Va, it's worth a shot. Tables were sticky, so be careful.

I went here twice for breakfast during my trip to RVA. Both times the food was very quick and extremely delicious. Everyone who served me was kind and attentive, and they even went out of their way to wrap up some extra biscuits and gravy I bought to take back to NY with me. I will be coming back on my next trip to RVA, and I strongly urge anyone in town to visit.

Food was amazing! I got the pork belly benedict and my boyfriend got the Fan. Our server was so kind and attentive, she was an angel. I only gave 4/5 stars because the host was literally on his phone the entire time and also the tables were SO STICKY. I had to exert a considerable amount of force to pick my coffee cup up from the table. TL, DR: fantastic food, pay in cash to avoid an up charge, and come with wet wipes for your table

Great little spot. I got the gravy flight. None were worth bragging about. Coffee was good. Will give it another try. Selling gravy in the south is risky business. Gravy is too simple and getting FANcey may not always be the right thing to do. Keep it simple. And maybe think about offering a GFO I substitute GP Flower with Almond flower and you cannot tell the difference. That would definitely compliment the GF biscuits.
