What Is the Waffle House Bacon Biscuit?

Sometimes you don’t want a giant breakfast. You just want something warm, crispy, and quick — and that’s exactly what the Waffle House Bacon Biscuit delivers.

I didn’t think much of it the first time I ordered it. Honestly, I just needed a quick bite before hitting the road. But that first bite? It was buttery, smoky, and unexpectedly comforting. It’s not trying to be fancy — it’s just good.

The Bacon Biscuit is one of those grab-and-go items that somehow manages to feel homemade, and I’ve gone back for it more than a few times since

Waffle House Bacon Biscuit Price [Updated 2025]

As of 2025, the Bacon Biscuit at Waffle House is priced at around $3.50. If you want to upgrade it with egg or cheese, it’ll cost a little extra — mine came to about $4.50 after adding cheese and a side coffee.

Honestly, you can’t really beat that price. It’s cheaper than most drive-thru breakfast sandwiches and tastes way more like real food.

Waffle House Bacon Biscuit Calories and Nutrition Facts

It’s a small item, so the calorie count isn’t anything wild:

• Calories: Around 420 (plain)
• Protein: ~12g
• Fat: ~25g
• Carbs: ~35g

If you add cheese or egg, expect a bump in both calories and protein. But even fully loaded, it’s not overwhelming — and it definitely keeps you full for a while.

How to Customize Your Bacon Biscuit

This is where Waffle House shines — even the smallest items can be tweaked to your liking. Here’s how I’ve switched it up:

Add a fried egg	for a heartier sandwich
Melted American cheese	makes it creamier and adds more flavor
Want more bacon?	You can usually ask for an extra strip or two
Feeling bold?	I once asked for jalapeños inside. No regrets.

What Does the Bacon Biscuit Taste Like?

It’s buttery. It’s smoky. It’s everything you want in a quick breakfast sandwich.

The biscuit itself is soft but not crumbly — kind of like the ones your grandma might make if she had a flat-top grill in her kitchen. The bacon is crispy but not overcooked, and when you add cheese or egg, it starts to feel like a mini-meal.

It’s a comfort food vibe in the best way: warm, filling, and familiar. Nothing fancy, just good flavor and good texture in every bite.

Why the Bacon Biscuit Is a Waffle House Sleeper Hit

This little biscuit doesn’t get as much hype as the All-Star or the hashbrown bowls — but it should. Here’s why:

• It’s perfect for when you’re on the go
• Affordable and super satisfying for its size
• Can be customized easily
• Doesn’t leave you feeling overly stuffed
• And honestly? It’s just consistently good

Sometimes the simplest things end up being your favorites — and this one definitely surprised me.

Waffle House Bacon Biscuit Presentation

Waffle House doesn’t do fancy plating — and I love that. The Bacon Biscuit usually comes wrapped in parchment or on a small plate, ready to be eaten with one hand while you sip your coffee with the other.

It’s golden, warm, and the smell of bacon hits you the second it’s set down. Not Instagram-pretty, but it looks (and smells) like breakfast is supposed to.
