Maple Street Biscuit Company - Homewood

No half-star selections but I'm really giving Maple street a 2.5 or so. Not because it was bad, it just wasn't good. Service was great, Hot Maple Vanilla Bean Latte was really good as well. Greatness stopped there for me, during my recent visit. Duped again by Birmingham's hype of new place to eat.

One could argue, "surely you ordered the wrong thing". Well, what would be the good items? Between my wife and I, we had 'The Farmer', 'The Five', 'Three Layer Cake' and a side of grits.

Apple Butter of 'The Farmer' was tasty, and so was the sausage gravy found on 'The Five'. The rest just left much to be desired for some reason. The fried chicken tasted... just like fried chicken. Chicken + flour, done. Cooked well but didn't taste like anything at all. The grits are described as "Stone-ground white hominy grits, cut with cream cheese & butter". Cream cheese and butter? Where? Also flavorless. Certainly at least a few of these 5-star reviews came from someone who was born and raised in the south right?!

Oh yeah... the biscuits. They're fine.

Again, we didn't find it to be bad, just not good. Great service and good coffee gets the rounding up to 3 stars.

Had a good experience here, it is pretty packed and with minimal social distancing inside the restaurant. I like their food and it might look like the serving is small, but it really made me full and satisfied. We received free biscuits since it's our 1st visit. Coffee is great too. Everyone is friendly.. I would suggest it's a "clean as you go" restaurant? not so sure.. but experience wise.. will be coming back for sure.

I always enjoy eating at this location. The weekend is probably the worst time to visit because the line is usually out the door for hours. The biscuits with sausage gravy and the chicken and waffles are my favorite. Also, if you love grits.. theirs are yummy.

10/10 recommend! It is in such a cute little town and the food was great! Very popular and busy it seems like, but they are very quick. The concept behind their menu and question of the month is great and really makes you feel like they value you!

Awww man where do I start?? Even in the middle of the busy chaos, the staff was super attentive & friendly. We purchase
The Five Biscuit & the Grits. The food was super delicious!! It really reminds me of comfort food. Even though they were a extra cost, You must try the jams!! This little gem is definitely our new breakfast favorite spot!! They are super affordable & the serving size was good as well. We found its better to order online to beat the crowd.
