Alabama: croque madame, The Alabama Biscuit Company, Birmingham

The croque madame biscuit served at modern breakfast spot The Alabama Biscuit Company (around the corner from upscale shopping center The Summit) is on the expensive side, but customers say it’s totally worth it. Quality, locally sourced ingredients go into each sandwich, with smoked ham, lemon and herb aioli, a fried egg, and Cheddar piled high on a house-baked biscuit. It can be messy to eat, but who cares when it's so delicious?

Alaska: Saddle Bag, Kava’s Pancake House, Anchorage

Looking for a bargain breakfast? Check out Kava’s Pancake House, a family restaurant with friendly waitstaff and a Hawaiian theme. Its behemoth of a breakfast sandwich, the Saddle Bag, features two sausage patties, two rashers of bacon, shaved ham, and three scrambled eggs, all topped with Swiss and American cheese and served between slices of grilled sourdough. Served with home fries, hash browns, or grits, and unlimited coffee or tea, it's great value for money – especially when you consider that the huge portion size often means customers take leftovers home.

Florida: Fully Loaded, Marlene’s Original Breakfast Sandwich, Tampa

You’d expect the breakfast sandwiches to be good here, given the name – and Marlene’s Original Breakfast Sandwich doesn’t disappoint, winning rave reviews for pretty much everything on its menu. For the ultimate breakfast treat, though, try the Fully Loaded – fried egg, sausage, double bacon, grilled onions, and Cheddar cheese on a crisp-yet-fluffy Cuban roll, the latter a nod to Tampa’s heritage. A drizzle of maple syrup takes it to another level.

zakthebaker/Instagram

Florida: frittata sandwich, Zak the Baker, Miami

For those in the mood for a breakfast sandwich that feels that little bit more virtuous than the norm, the frittata sandwich served up at popular artisan bakery Zak the Baker is the perfect option.

The Red Eyed Mule is a no-frills American diner with counter service and great-value burgers and brunch food.

It features a huge, crisp yet fluffy biscuit filled with Angus beef (which is smoked in-house over pecan wood), a fried egg, and gravy.

Idaho: Certified Signature Egg Sandwich, Certified Kitchen + Bakery, Boise

Customers rave about this egg, Cheddar, arugula, and crème fraîche sandwich, which features on the all-day breakfast menu at chic neighborhood favorite Certified Kitchen + Bakery.

bangbangpieandbiscuits/Facebook

Illinois: sausage biscuit, Bang Bang Pie & Biscuits, Chicago

Widely known for its consistently buttery, fluffy, warm, and flaky biscuit sandwiches, Bang Bang Pie & Biscuits has a number of delicious options on the menu.

thebreakfastclubusa/Instagram

Iowa: The Breakfast Club, The Breakfast Club, Des Moines

The menu at the brilliantly bright and colorful The Breakfast Club is extensive to say the least: indulgent options including loaded hash browns, bacon and egg tacos, pancakes, and French toast may well catch your eye. If you want to taste the best of the bunch, though, it has to be the eponymous The Breakfast Club, a deliciously hefty sandwich featuring sliced ham, bacon, Swiss and American cheeses, mayo, egg, lettuce, and tomato on sourdough. Oh, and it comes served with tater tots, fries, or fresh fruit, too.

920Mass/Facebook

Kansas: Roost Breakfast Sandwich, The Roost, Lawrence

If you like your breakfast sandwiches loaded, you'll want to bite into The Roost's tempting offering. This cozy cafe's heaving sandwich sees two slices of sourdough piled with eggs any style, lettuce, tomato, onion, provolone cheese, and chipotle mayo, with your choice of pecan wood–smoked bacon or sausage. Pair it with a portion of breakfast potatoes, and you're in for a real treat. 

biscuitbellybiscuits/Facebook

Kentucky: Rockwell Supreme, Biscuit Belly, Lexington and Louisville

Quirky, colorful Southern restaurant Biscuit Belly knows what it’s doing when it comes to soft, flaky biscuits, attracting long lines from breakfast through to lunchtime.

satsumabywater/Facebook

Louisiana: Dr. Seuss, Satsuma Café, New Orleans

A fun nod to the famous children's author, this breakfast croissant from quaint local café Satsuma is pretty hard to resist, with a filling of scrambled egg, basil pesto, shaved ham, melted Swiss cheese, and red onion. If pastries aren’t your thing, you can also get it served on a bagel or crusty ciabatta. However you eat yours, you can be sure it’s made to order using high-quality local and organic ingredients.

districtdonuts/Facebook

Louisiana: Hot Chicken & Honey Butter Biscuit, District Donuts Sliders Brew, New Orleans

Who better to make an indulgent breakfast sandwich than the craft donut connoisseurs at District Donuts Sliders Brew? The joint's Hot Chicken & Honey Butter Biscuit won't disappoint.

Nebraska: Toastie, Lola’s, Omaha

Focaccia is an unusual bread choice for a breakfast sandwich, but the Italian-inspired Toastie from Lola’s proves it really works.

New York: buttermilk biscuit sandwich, Sagaponack General Store, Sagaponack

The buttermilk biscuit sandwich served at this Hamptons grocery store is a classic that’s become something of a social media sensation. The Sagaponack General Store originally opened in 1878, before sadly closing its doors in 2020. Thankfully, the beloved haunt was relaunched in 2025, and people have been flocking here ever since. While the bakery section is abound with delicious treats, it’s the buttermilk biscuit sandwich, featuring fluffy eggs, sharp, flavorful Cheddar, and optional ham packed into a freshly baked buttery biscuit, that is the undisputed must-order item.

New York: smoked salmon and cream cheese bialy, Russ & Daughters, New York City

The bialy (similar to a bagel) with smoked salmon and cream cheese from New York institution Russ & Daughters is on the expensive side, but it's totally worth it. The fourth-generation family business offers different types of high-quality salmon, such as New Zealand king salmon, and belly lox cured with sugar and salt. Opt to add some tomatoes – which are grown at the rooftop farm next door – for an extra hit of fresh flavor.

LaurelMarket/Facebook

North Carolina: BELT, Laurel Market, Charlotte

You’ve probably heard of a BLT – but what about a BELT? We don’t know why adding eggs to this classic sandwich isn't way more common. Served at family-owned deli Laurel Market, it features applewood-smoked bacon, two eggs, lettuce, and tomato, and customers describe it as a real favorite. Have it on your choice of 'everything' bagel, ciabatta, or gluten-free bread.

brewbirdfargo/Facebook

North Dakota: breakfast sandwich, Brew Bird, Fargo

Available on weekend mornings at Brew Bird, a funky counter-service chicken shop housed in an old tow truck, this is the breakfast sandwich to end all breakfast sandwiches. It features a crispy chicken thigh, maple bourbon seasoning, a fried egg, bacon, Cheddar, and aioli, all served on an English muffin. Customers say it’s the best breakfast in town – and like most things on the menu, it can be made gluten-free.

Customers say they haven't found a better version elsewhere – and that you simply haven't lived until you've tried it. As well as spot-on sandwiches, the café (which has four outposts) is known for its pastries and coffee.

HunnyBunnyBiscuitCo/Facebook

Oklahoma: croque madame, HunnyBunny Biscuit Co., Oklahoma City

Everything is delicious at cute biscuit shop HunnyBunny Biscuit Co., which has two locations in Oklahoma City, and one in Edmond.

pinestatebiscuits/Facebook

Oregon: The Reggie, Pine State Biscuits, Portland

Practically legendary in Portland, The Reggie – a fried chicken, bacon, cheese, and gravy biscuit – is one of the best breakfast sandwiches you'll find anywhere. You can customize it, too; add an egg to make it deluxe, or order a veggie version with a vegan sausage patty and tofu bacon. People who've tried it say that while other stores try to replicate it, the original Pine State Biscuits sandwich is still the best. The restaurant has four locations in Portland, and one in Reno, Nevada.

middlechildphiladelphia/Instagram

Pennsylvania: pastrami, egg, and cheese sandwich, Middle Child, Philadelphia

biscuitlove/Facebook

Tennessee: East Nasty, Biscuit Love, Franklin and Nashville

Former food truck Biscuit Love's specialties are flaky, buttery biscuits and 'Bonuts' (fried biscuit donuts) – so you wouldn’t expect it to be responsible for the juiciest, crispiest fried chicken in the area. However, the East Nasty – a biscuit stuffed with fried chicken tenders, American cheese, house-made sausage gravy, and an egg (if you wish) – is guaranteed to exceed your expectations. 

commonbondbistroandbakery/Facebook

Texas: sausage and egg sandwich, Common Bond, Houston
