Root Stock Provisions

Awesome breakfast spot. Every single one of the breakfast options are delicious. Great biscuits, super thick cut bacon, love it. The City Ham biscuit is my favorite. The Classic Breakfast biscuit is Freddie Mercury's favorite (my dog). Service is always quick and staff are super friendly.

I stopped in for a quick breakfast before work and was nicely surprised by this modestly appointed bakery-cafe. The house specialty is biscuits - they offer them in four varieties - and sandwiches built on them.

I enjoyed their rendition of the Classic Breakfast Biscuit with crispy house bacon, fluffy scrambled eggs, and tantalizingly melty cheddar cheese. I swapped out the standard buttermilk biscuit for the zippy version with peppercorn and chive and added a healthy slice of ripe tomato. For a few dollars more, I added a side of fresh fruit and a rich cup of locally roasted coffee. Everything was top notch, and it was obvious that they take pride in crafting everything they offer.

In addition to the sublime biscuits, Root Stock offers a number of Southern standard breakfast plates, thoughtfully composed lunch sandwiches, fresh salads, and house-baked sweets. I'll definitely be back for that Country Club!

The ambience is dressed down with a touch of Country flair, and the counter-service setup is equally casual. Although this means guests are asked to gather their own napkins and bus their own tables, it helps keep the prices reasonable, and my filling, hand-made breakfast and satisfying cup of coffee came to just $12, including tax and gratuity.

In all, this cozy eatery and bakery is an asset to The Bottom, one of Richmond's neighborhoods on the rise, and I look forward to supporting it for a long time to come. These folks are doing it right and setting a GREAT example for what a locally owned Richmond food and beverage establishment should be!

It had been a long week and work and the team needed some comfort food. I called up Root Stock and James had many suggestions. For our needs biscuits hit the spot. 3 dozen a mix of buttermilk, sweet potato, vegan and sweet (chocolate). With homemade strawberry/citrus jam and fresh butter. Yumm.... Everyone agreed best biscuits ever.
The next week the request was for more biscuits. So we may have established biscuit Thursday.
Thank you Root Stock and looking forward to exploring the rest of your menu especially with spring coming. Good to have a place downtown with excellent vegan options.

Absolutely delicious! New small joint...
Stopped for breakfast and I enjoyed a wonderful traditional breakfast with perfectly cooked eggs...delicious sausage and tasty seasoned potatoes. The colleagues enjoyed buiscuits with gravy with a fired egg on top and they were over the moon!
Keep up the great work guys and stay true to your roots ;]

In search of somewhere new for breakfast we decided on Root Stock Provisions. We were quickly welcomed by Amy as soon as we walked in. I opted for the shrimp and grits, which were cooked perfectly had really good flavor. The Mrs. got the root stock breakfast. She enjoyed it, and of course I had to taste it as well. Shaun (I hope I spelled his name correctly) who brought our food out after he cooked it, was very friendly. Their biscuits are made there, and my wife's plate came with a buttermilk biscuit. She liked it so much that we purchased a half dozen to take home.(you can mix them up). I also couldn't leave without getting a piece of their maple bacon coffee cake. I was too full to try it, so that will be saved for later. I'm sure it will be as good as it looks! With all of that said I will definitely go back.
