About Bird Bird Biscuit

Bird Bird Biscuit has become an Austin institution, earning devoted followers with their creative biscuit sandwiches, genuine commitment to hospitality, and sheer deliciousness. With three locations across Austin, they've built a community of biscuit lovers who line up for their signature creations. Their motto? "Let the biscuit bring the joy!"

What started as a passion project by former Top Chef contestant Brian Batch has grown into one of Austin's most beloved breakfast and brunch destinations. The biscuits—buttery, flaky, substantial—are the canvas, while creative fillings ranging from fried chicken to seasonal specials provide endless variety.

For gluten-free diners, Bird Bird offers something remarkable: gluten-free biscuits that let you join in the experience. While the biscuit is traditionally a gluten-heavy food, Bird Bird's GF version means celiac diners aren't left watching from the sidelines as everyone else enjoys Austin's biscuit scene.

Gluten-Free Dining at Bird Bird

Bird Bird Biscuit's GF accommodations give celiac diners access to the full experience:

• GF Biscuits Available: Substitute a quality gluten-free biscuit on most sandwiches for a small upcharge
• Easy Online Ordering: Select the GF biscuit option clearly when ordering through their website
• In-Store Kiosk: GF option is easy to select when ordering at their self-service kiosks
• Staff Training: Team members are trained on dietary accommodations and can answer questions
• Made Fresh: GF biscuits are prepared fresh alongside regular orders

Cross-Contamination Note: Bird Bird is not a dedicated gluten-free kitchen. Biscuits are prepared in a shared environment where flour is present. While they take care, cross-contamination is possible. Those with severe celiac disease or extreme sensitivity should assess their personal comfort level. If highly sensitive, consider that this may not be the safest choice.

Popular Sandwiches (Order with GF Biscuit)

The menu features creative sandwiches perfect for breakfast, brunch, or anytime satisfaction:

• The O.G.: Fried chicken breast, honey butter, pickles—the signature sandwich that started it all
• Nana: Fried chicken, pimento cheese, bacon, hot honey—indulgent and perfect

Note: Confirm which fillings are GF-safe beyond just the biscuit—some sauces or preparations may contain gluten. Ask about the sausage gravy specifically.

Bird Bird operates primarily on an online ordering model that's streamlined and efficient:

"I was SO excited to find out they have GF biscuits! I'd heard about Bird Bird for years but assumed it was off-limits for me. The sandwich was absolutely delicious and I didn't feel left out of the Austin biscuit craze anymore. The O.G. on a GF biscuit is incredible!" — Katie M., Austin

"Order online, pick up, and enjoy. Their system is so efficient! The GF biscuit is genuinely good—crispy on the outside, fluffy inside. It holds up to the fillings perfectly. Worth every visit!" — Miguel R., Austin

"The Nana sandwich with GF biscuit is my weekend treat. Yes, I'm aware of the shared kitchen situation, but I've never had an issue. For many GF folks who can tolerate small amounts of cross-contact, this is a game-changer." — Sarah T., Austin
