I really don’t think it was the fact that we were hung way over from SXSW partying the night before, but I swear, the breakfast we had at Dan’s Hamburgers in Austin’s East Side ranked up there among the best best biscuits and gravy we’ve ever had in the United States.
Founded in 1973, this local chain used to be called “Dan and Fran’s,” until the couple split up. They each went their own way, and started their own separate restaurants. We only tried Dan’s, but next time we’re back in Austin, we’ll be sure to sample Fran’s fare too.
Go to Dan’s for breakfast, and if your eyes are bleary like ours were, make it easy on yourself and just order the #19 Special. For just $3.69, you get a heaping of eggs, toast, biscuits and gravy, and sausage too.
And believe me, if you’ve been hanging out with crazy Austinites like our friend Skinny Chef, you’re gonna need it!
“Because the sausage bits are big and you can easily pick them out…”
Best. Vegetarian. Restaurant. Review. Ever.
Ok OK so I’m not a veganazi! I’m a little flexible when it comes to stuff like that.
Dan’s was good, yes. And cheap. But the best? Come on … you know the best biscuits and gravy are on the Vickers breakfast ride
Sounds like dad knows the state you were innnnnn…lol
Looks like we missed a great place to eat while we were in Austin! We had some great Mexican meals while we were there.
