State Farmers Market Restaurant: If you want a table on Sunday morning, best get to the Farmer’s Market before church lets out. So where do I, and my colleagues, go for the best biscuits in town? ![]() ![]() I realized I come by it pretty honestly when I was sitting in an old country restaurant with my grandmother back in December and when the biscuits didn’t come out right, her entire impression of breakfast was flawed that day. Looking at other reviews, maybe we caught them on a bad day, but that one day was enough to make two people not want to return for a second try.This was an easy Five Faves feature for me to write because I consider it one of my foremost duties as a true southerner to have a strong opinion on breakfast, especially when it comes to the accompanying biscuits. However, if you are going to be open and serving food, it is still a reflection of you and your establishment and this was a poor showing. I will admit part of our issue might have been that we visited around 130 PM, just an hour before closing. Being from outside the area, we felt at the time we purchased that $25 for that amount of food was very reasonable. The chicken on both biscuits were real chicken breasts, hot and moist so they were cooked well. The good: While it was not good enough for me to try again even if I wanted to return, the apple fritter was “warm” which is more than I could say for the hash browns. Last for my drink combo I had a tea/lemonade mix, it has a strong after taste similar to where it was stored had not been cleaned recently. Unfortunately for us, it seemed the only seasoning used here was salt, which is all we could taste, a shame because as well as the chicken was cooked, it lacked flavor. The hash browns with my combo were very greasy and not even warm, it was as if they had been sitting for a long period of time waiting on someone to order them. The gravy while looking like it had sausage had zero flavor and was like eating watered down flour. The bad: Both of our biscuits were very dry. Once we received our food, we drove away and ate about a block away, so the food was consumed in our vehicle about as close as you could get to SBK. I had the bad grampa (it is how it is spelled on the menu) combo and their “new” apple fritter. We wanted to try a wide sample of what was offered, my wife had a chicken biscuit with a side of gravy. Like a lot of people note, it is drive thru only which I thought was a cool feature and should have allowed them to focus just on their food and not having to serve and clean up a sit-down dining area. see how this could be a place that people have been visiting for a long time and is a cult classic to them. While visiting for 5-days, this is a place I found on trip advisor and could not wait to try. This is not going to be a popular review, but it reflects what my wife and I had there at Sunrise Biscuit Kitchen (SBK). Overall I would certainly recommend this place for a quick bite for breakfast. If I am ever around to go back I would probably just get a chicken biscuit next time. Their was a good portion of eggs and bacon which all tasted good and the real cheddar cheese was great. The biscuit portion was fresh and had a good texture. The hash brown was quite greasy and a little mushy so that wasn't my favorite. The people were friendly and service was fast. going around the building when driving in one of the cooks waved at us. We road over and looked at their menu board and once we ordered they had our food ready almost as soon as we got to the drive-through. We found this place online while waiting for a family member at the Amblutory center.
