Top Biscuits And Gravy In Denver
(credit: Sassafras American Eatery)Biscuits and gravy have been an American diner staple for as long as the diner itself has been around.

Thankfully, there are lots of great spots all over Denver serving up tasty biscuits and gravy, so get out a little early this weekend and try one or two of these delicious hot spots while you can.

When it comes to biscuits, the Denver Biscuit Company is the undisputed champion. These massive, light, fluffy and flavorful biscuits are packed with tons of different ingredients, depending on what mood you happen to be in. The classic biscuits and gravy are served up with smothered house made sausage gravy (also available in vegetarian.) These aren't your average biscuits either. They are massive and thick enough to maintain their structure even with the huge serving of gravy poured on top. It's simple, it's classic and it's done right.

Sam's No. 3 is a tradition among brunch spots in Denver. The iconic restaurant has made the top lists of nearly every food listing in town and was even spotted on the Food Network's "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives." If you've never eaten at Sam's No. 3, here's your chance. The menu here is massive. Seriously massive. Luckily, however, there are only two ways to get your biscuits and gravy here — with or without meat. They come three biscuits to a serving, smothered in sausage country gravy and (if you request it) served with your choice of ham, bacon or even more sausage. It's classic diner fare done well. Really well.
