In the early 1980s, as an alternate career, David Briggs began evaluating opportunities within the restaurant and bar industries. He quickly noted the dislike most establishments had for frozen drinks. This dislike stemmed from the complicated mixing process that slowed down customer service. Also, while customers wanted frozen drinks, the operators were not marketing them properly. The drinks that were available were of inferior quality, limited selection and premium priced. Based on a vision to revolutionize the way frozen drinks were treated in the market place, David Briggs began an extensive research effort focused on developing a variety of high quality frozen drink products that could be prepared in a consistent manner. Prepared with the development of more than 20 unique frozen drink offerings (primarily alcoholic), Briggs introduced the frozen specialty drink concept in the New Orleans area on January 2, 1983, known as New Orleans Original Daiquiris. This concept focuses on the sale of frozen specialty drinks at locations that provide a casual, conversational atmosphere, are well lighted, clean and appeal to a broad clientele base.

For over 50 years, Biscuitville has been a local, family-owned company known for serving up authentic Southern breakfast food made fresh daily from locally sourced ingredients. With over 60 quick-casual locations in North Carolina and Virginia, we`ve assembled a new, driven, and experienced leadership team committed to unprecedented growth. Since our rebranding in 2014 as Biscuitville Fresh Southern®, we`ve embarked on completely remodeling all our restaurants. And, in stark contrast to most of our competitors, we`ve experienced double-digit sales increases throughout fiscal year 2017. We`re proud of the fact that our fresh-baked biscuits have become almost legendary here in the South. (Garden & Gun magazine included them among their “100 Southern Foods You Absolutely Must Try Before You Die.”) Yet what truly sets us apart is our entrepreneurial spirit. We build amazing teams of passionate individuals while creating an open, collaborative environment designed to foster personal growth. And we encourage that growth to extend beyond the workplace: Our restaurants all close at 2 p.m., and our corporate headquarters closes at 3 p.m. every Friday—allowing for a work-life balance not found anywhere else in our industry.
