Biscuitville Fresh Southern is a family-owned American regional fast-food restaurant chain. The restaurant specializes in the traditional southern breakfast made from scratch and with local ingredients. [1] The chain primarily operates in the Southeastern United States and as of February 2024, there were 82 locations in the U.S. states of North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.
The company, originally named Mountainbrook Fresh Bread & Milk (eventually known as Pizzaville), started as two bread stores in Burlington, North Carolina [2] The founder, Maurice Jennings, began making pizzas, and soon wanted a way to put the business to work in the morning. The company began making biscuits, from a recipe developed by the Jennings family, and eventually the company sold more biscuits than pizzas. [3] The company opened its first biscuit-only operation named "Biscuitville", located in Danville, Virginia.
