About Town Biscuits
AmericanLunch spot
Town Biscuits brings Carolina biscuit culture to Oakland's Waverly neighborhood with a California twist — think flaky, buttery biscuits topped with local seasonal produce and soulful Southern fillings. The kitchen balances nostalgia (pimento cheese, fried chicken, slow-smoked pork) with bright, West Coast flavors for a welcoming, neighborhood dining experience.
What to Order
Classic Fried Chicken Biscuit
Crisp, buttermilk-brined chicken tucked into a flaky, buttery biscuit with house hot honey for the perfect sweet-heat bite.
Pimento Cheese & Pickled Ramp Biscuit
Creamy, tangy pimento cheese elevated with bright, seasonal pickled ramps and a kiss of California citrus.
Smoked Pulled Pork with Collard Slaw
Slow-smoked pork piled on a warm biscuit and finished with a crunchy, vinegar-forward collard slaw — Carolina soul, Bay freshness.
