Handsome Biscuit

A popular brunch spot on Park Place serving secret-recipe Southern biscuits filled with fried chicken, bacon and sausage gravy.

Opened in 2013, Handsome Biscuit is one of Norfolk's highest-rated budget breakfast spots. Its secret-recipe butter biscuits are baked fresh. The signature “Hella Fitzgerald” combines fried chicken, thick-cut bacon, cheddar and red-eye sausage gravy. Other options include the classic fried chicken biscuit, the bacon egg “Shorty,” and a sweet biscuit-and-sauce dessert. Lines form on weekend mornings. Reservations are not taken, but you can order online for pickup. It is located on Colonial Avenue, not far from Doumar's, and has a second location in Virginia Beach.
