Nestled in The Marketplace at Thornebrook, The Flying Biscuit Cafe offers a delightful breakfast experience. I tried the shrimp and grits, which were bursting with flavor and perfectly creamy. The homemade biscuits, sprinkled with sugar, were a sweet surprise!

The atmosphere is cozy and playful, and the outdoor seating is a great bonus for sunny days. My salted caramel latte paired perfectly with my meal. If you're in Gainesville, make sure to stop by... You won't regret it! 😋
