The only drive through in Chapel Hill!! Also the best! Very healthy, hearty portions , and affordable ☺️

Best biscuit you can buy, better than grandma made. Chicken biscuit is what they're known for but even a plan biscuit is tops.????????

Lauren I.

Fried chicken , bacon , egg & cheese biscuit combo comes with hashbrown and iced tea . Their coffee is always burned and their iced tea is like syrup , but it is soooo goood!

Gina

Best biscuits ever! Totally reasonable price. Drive through only or Park and walk up.

Quin Walker

When the Tar Heels threaten to score 100 points in the Smith Center fans cheer for biscuits . The jumbotrons say Bojangles, but everyone knows that they're cheering for Sunrise.

Get the chicken biscuit it is LIFE CHANGING! It's a big piece of chicken tho so don't pile too much on top or it will fall apart

Damian Bayona

The chicken , egg and cheese biscuit is LIFE! The long queue is worth the wait. A Carolina classic.

Nicholas Tinsley

It may be sacrilegious, but the Chicken & Egg biscuit is the best way to start your day, hands down.

Try the kale biscuit sandwich and swap the whole wheat for the biscuit for a savory and crunchy treat

Christopher Gremillion

Biscuits better than any other i've ever had. Better than your grandmother's biscuits , she said so.

Best chicken biscuit in the area. Ask for some honey to go with it, and order indoors rather than in the drive-thru.

Kathy Hite

Chicken Biscuits w/cheese and the delicious homemade cinnamon rolls . The Best!

Nice little roadside drive through stand. Think Sonic but smaller and better. Small menu but homestyle quality. Great customer service.

The cinnamon rolls are just as good as you've heard. SO GOOD.

Avoid the line of cars backing up Franklin street to Estes and park next door, walk in. Much faster way to get your CHICKEN BISCUIT !

Best chicken biscuit to be had. You can only walk up to the window or drive thru though; no sit-and-eat space. Closes at 2pm!
