What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Matt Robb's Biscuits is a beloved spot praised for its exceptional, homemade biscuits and unique flavor combinations. Customers rave about the friendly, personal service from owner Matt Robb, who clearly pours his passion into his work. While the food is consistently rated highly, be prepared for potential wait times and sell-outs due to the small, one-person operation.
"Matt loves his job! It shows in his friendly attitude, music and amazing food. We opted for a cheddar garlic biscuit with butter. We arrived too late for the blueberry biscuits. No matter, these biscuits are next level!
I’ve had Matt Robb’s Biscuits on my list of places to try for more than a year. We finally made it to Knoxville this weekend. These were worth the trip alone! Next time, we get up earlier to get the blueberry biscuits. If we miss out again, I won’t be too sad, as long as I get a biscuit."

"Matt clearly has a passion for his small business! His biscuits are five star, obviously, but we were also so impressed by his funny personality and his kind recommendations. He immediately recognized us as out-of-towners and was quick to give us so many different recommendations for food and drinks. He even hand wrote them down for us while he was busy. Thank you :)"

"I hate biscuits!
That should tell you how good this place is!
They run out of ingredients quickly, so we only had the egg and cheese biscuits.
They were incredible!
Imagine having their sausage or bacon or whatever else they have.
The biscuits are made from scratch and you can immediately taste the difference!
Go early! Taste excellence!
(Sorry the pictures are of half-eaten egg biscuits, they’re too good)"
