The Flying Biscuit Cafe

The Flying Biscuit Cafe on Prince Avenue brings a beloved Atlanta brunch concept to the Normaltown corridor of Athens. With over 1,120 reviews at 4.4 stars, the Athens location has successfully transplanted the brand's reputation for creative breakfast fare and signature biscuits to a city that takes its brunch seriously. The namesake biscuits are the anchor of the menu: fluffy, buttery, and served with cranberry apple butter that has become iconic across the brand's locations. Beyond the biscuits, the menu covers eggs, pancakes, french toast, and lunch items with creative touches that keep things interesting without being overly complicated. The portions are generous, and the overall quality is consistent across visits. The Prince Avenue location places the cafe in one of Athens' most walkable commercial corridors, surrounded by other restaurants, coffee shops, and local businesses. The dining room is bright and welcoming, and the patio provides outdoor seating during warmer months. The atmosphere is casual and family friendly, with a brunch energy that feels festive without being chaotic. The Flying Biscuit also operates a second Athens location on Epps Bridge Parkway, serving the west side with the same menu and format. Both locations are open for breakfast, brunch, and lunch daily. Weekend mornings draw the largest crowds, but the restaurant handles volume well and keeps wait times manageable. The Prince Avenue location is the more charming of the two, with a neighborhood feel that fits the Normaltown personality.
