We ordered, grabbed our drinks from a self-serve fountain, and waited. You place your order, take a number, and find a seat at any of their many outdoor tables or from within their small indoor space. It’s an order-at-the-counter joint with a large menu posted on the wall. It was already packed with a line of at least 20 people extending out the door. We arrived at Biscuit Bar for lunch on Saturday. Biscuit Bar, like the other restaurants here (which currently include Hookline, Union Bear Brewing, and Chip’s Hamburgers) features large, covered patio areas all sitting shoulder-to-shoulder and overlooking a small lake. This 3000-square-foot waterfront development is beautifully laid out with lounge areas, fire pits, children’s play areas, patios, and a number of restaurants. Truth be told, this was my first visit to the Boardwalk at Granite Park. So I, for one, would like to give a warm welcome to The Biscuit Bar, a brand new establishment that recently opened at the lovely Boardwalk at Granite Park in Plano. People love biscuits, and it’s hardly a surprise that a restaurant doing them well will easily draw crowds.ĭallas has its share of restaurants serving excellent biscuits, but there aren’t too many joints entirely dedicated to the art of biscuit making. People pack into these places, all in search of a hot, fluffy, and buttery bite of a deeply Southern tradition. Places like Biscuit Love in Nashville, Pine State Biscuits in Portland, Denver Biscuit Company in Denver, and Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit in Charleston come to mind immediately.

You’ll find them across the country, and in my experience, they seem to be some of the most popular seats in the city. Biscuit-centered restaurants are not a new concept.
