What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Buford's Biscuits is celebrated for its exceptionally large, delicious, and fluffy biscuits, embodying true Southern comfort food. Diners rave about the flavorful dishes, generous portions, and the charming, relaxed atmosphere. While the food is a consistent hit, some mention the large portions meaning even a single biscuit can be a meal.
"After my grandparents showed me this place, I was immediately blown away by how amazing the atmosphere and the biscuits were. I’ve never been a big biscuit fan but these were on a whole other level. I tried the Breakfast Biscuit and it was rich in flavor and seasoned to perfection. I’ll definitely visit again next summer when I travel back to Virginia!"
Sage Newman
"This place is quite the quaint experience. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it's a nice spot, very relaxed.
Starting with the basics, the biscuit is very good. They're big, tender, and fluffy. They hold up to the dishes, but are still light in a way. I had The Cure: biscuit, sausage gravy, Tillamook cheddar, fried chicken, and a poached egg. A nice balance, though the breading likes to slip off the chicken once it starts to absorb the gravy a bit.
My wife had the Bless Your Heart. It was the biscuit, Nashville hot chicken, pickles, and mac & cheese. The chicken is a little spicy and peppery, but still maintains a good flavor. There is a lot of mac & cheese. The pickles are a nice balance and quite vinegary.
Staff was friendly and attentive. I'm curious about the cocktails, but it was too early the day we went for breakfast."
Vincent Meli
"We just moved to Leesburg and I searched for a breakfast place and was very fortunate to find this place. This is the coolest little eclectic Southern breakfast restaurant you can imagine. Easily the best biscuits my wife and I have had!! Our server, Joey, was exceptional as well. Try the chicken waffle nugs too!!"
