“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We finally made it to SB’s Love Shack and WOW — what an absolute gem. It’s a smaller café, so when it’s cold there can be a short wait and limited indoor seating (no reservations), but it totally makes sense for the size. When the weather’s warm, they have a large patio. They’re open 9–2, and the staff was so warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The décor is super unique with a total RVA vibe. The food was unreal. I had the Glitter on a Mattress (Texas toast with bacon & sausage gravy, a side of bacon, and edible glitter ✨) and it was SO good — and huge. We also tried the French toast with flavored fruit cream and a breakfast sandwich, and everything was amazing. Parking is limited in the front, but there’s plenty around the back and an easy walk-up through a covered patio area. Great food, great service, fun atmosphere. Highly recommend — can’t wait to go back. 💕🍳✨“

“I absolutely loved Early Bird Biscuit Company. The environment alone is worth the visit — delightful, warm, and full of character. The space is decorated with vintage early-1900s artwork, much of it featuring dogs, which gives the place a really charming, unexpected personality. There’s also an old National cash register and an apothecary-style glass cabinet for the bakery items that make it feel timeless and thoughtfully curated.

The food was excellent. I had a huge biscuit stacked with two pieces of sausage and egg, and everything tasted genuinely made from scratch — because it clearly is. The biscuit was substantial, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, not just big for the sake of being big.

What really ties it all together is the staff. Everyone was pleasant, happy, and clearly enjoying what they do. You can feel the joy they put into making the biscuits, and that energy carries straight through to the customer experience.

Early Bird Biscuit Company is one of those places that gets everything right: atmosphere, food, and people. A true Richmond gem.“

“Have been seeing this restaurant a lot and wanted to try. It is much like fast food, you walk up and ordered and can pick up at the counter. The staff were very friendly, the menu had a large variety and this includes coffee. We both got the five and dime with sausage gravy. The sausage is a tad spicy but not overly spicy. He ate it like a sandwich and I cut it up with a fork. The biscuit was soft, and everything on the sandwich was good. The smash browns were perfection. I'm already looking to see what I can get next time.“

“We were a big group and a man I want to say Brian was our server all alone! He was great but I think the manager could of helped assist him more. He was running all over the place. He forgot a few things of mine but I didn't say anything because I felt bad and I didn't get a refill on my drink but once and that was at the end of my meal. I felt like he hid once everyone was eating lol 😆 but the food quality was good I would try this place again“
