Biscuits and gravy is more than just a meal—it’s the ultimate comfort food. At the Corner Cafe, we believe that nothing says “good morning” quite like a plate of our freshly made buttermilk biscuits smothered in creamy sausage gravy. Made daily by our experienced cooks, these homemade biscuits are far from a new recipe—they are a classic that we’re proud to serve every morning until 11 am. Here are five things to love about the Corner Cafe’s biscuits and gravy:
1. Freshly Baked Every Morning
We begin at 5 am with fresh ingredients to ensure our buttermilk biscuits are light, fluffy, and irresistibly delicious to start the day. There’s nothing quite like our homemade biscuit recipe, golden brown and buttery, made just for you. Baked fresh throughout the morning in our kitchen, these biscuits are served piping hot, making them the perfect base for a hearty breakfast. And, because freshness is so important to us, we only serve our biscuits until 11 am (and sometimes just a bit later on the weekends inside the restaurant when the orders keep streaming in).
2. The Perfect Sausage Gravy
A good sausage gravy is all about balance, and the Corner Cafe gets it just right. We start by browning the sausage, then add the water, dry ingredients and spices and allow it to thicken as it slow cooks. In the early days of Corner Cafe, we tried a lot of different types of sausage until we found one with that perfect balance of spices. We add just enough black pepper to bring out the flavors of the breakfast sausage without overpowering it. It’s creamy, comforting, and everything you want in a sausage gravy recipe.
3. Hearty Portions
When you order our biscuits and gravy, you’re getting a meal that satisfies. Each plate comes with generous portions of our fluffy, buttery biscuits and a heaping serving of our sausage gravy. Paired with our golden hash browns, this favorite breakfast will keep you full and happy well into your day.
4. A True Taste of Home Comfort
Biscuits and gravy are a classic comfort food, and we’ve perfected our recipe over the last 40 years to deliver that taste of home. From using the best ingredients to crafting each biscuit with care (yes, they are hand rolled and we still use a traditional biscuit cutter), every detail matters. Whether you grew up with a favorite gravy recipe or are just discovering the magic of comfort food, the Corner Cafe brings that warm, nostalgic flavor straight to your plate.
5. Not Just One Way to Enjoy
Although our traditional biscuits and gravy may be your normal “go to” meal, there are some days you may want to mix it up a little. Our biscuit topper adds a layer of egg between the biscuit and the sausage gravy creating a heap of goodness. Corner Cafe insiders know that you can create your own sausage, egg and cheese biscuit sandwich and turn a side of sausage gravy into a dipping sauce. Or, maybe you’d like to try our biscuits and gravy in bulk for an at home family brunch or a special office breakfast.
