The Biscuit Bar’s History
In late 2016, Jake and Janie Burkett welcomed twin girls, Bryce Jo and Blake, into their families and began planning their lives as new parents. Their joy quickly turned to sorrow with the unexpected passing of Brycee Jo due to a severe infection. Needless to say, their world came crashing down around them.
Throughout the following weeks, family and friends gathered around the Burketts to help them navigate their grief. As is often the case, food played a pivotal role in their journey towards healing. Though simple comfort foods were a staple, one item kept recurring on the menu: Biscuits.
On New Year’s Eve 2016, side-by-side with Janie’s brother, Jacob Allen, an entire spread was created around the idea of custom-made, do-it-yourself biscuit sandwiches. They whipped up a “biscuit bar” in their kitchen, featuring fluffy, scratch-made biscuits with mouth-watering toppings like scrambled eggs, bacon, fried chicken, sausage gravy, and maple syrup. The success of this singular meal gave birth to a great new passion for the Burketts.
Over the last several years, Jake and Janie have seen their new passion take flight from a creative concept to brick-and-mortar construction. They have lovingly developed every recipe on the menu in their home kitchen, and find great joy in sharing some family love with all who pass through the doors of The Biscuit Bar.
The Biscuit Bar’s first location opened in Spring 2018 at The Boardwalk @ Granite Park in Plano, TX. Currently, there are a total of five locations in the DFW area: Plano, Deep Ellum, Coppell, North Arlington, and the Stockyards in Fort Worth. There are plans for more expansion in the near future.
It’s all about food
Some menu items are better than others. They are very affordable for such a beautiful place. Each item is around $7. The craft sodas are delicious. The staff was friendly, and the manager came around and greeted every table. The food was prepared perfectly and fast. Some of the sandwiches lack sauce or flavor, others are absolutely tasty.
The chicken is perfectly breaded and just the right amount of salt. The French toast biscuit was structured but soft. And the syrup was sweet and moist. The whipped cream somehow cut all the flavors to help it not overwhelm you – it brought it all together. A heavy “lunch” for sure, but delicious. The presentation and portion were great. The service was very friendly and the atmosphere was lovely.
