The cheeky chicken-and-biscuits restaurant Biscuit Belly is expanding quickly around the region with 10 new locations spread throughout Alabama, Kentucky and Tennessee.
Get ready for three Knoxville locations to open in the coming years.
Biscuit Belly serves damn good biscuits, as it calls them, for breakfast and brunch seven days a week. It has a full menu of savory chicken-and-biscuit sandwiches, sweet breakfast treats, coffee, cocktails and other Southern breakfast fare in a cheerful setting. The restaurant started in Louisville, Kentucky, and launched its franchising efforts at the end of last year.
Jay and Kelly Shoffner will own and operate six new Biscuit Belly locations split between Knoxville and Lexington, Kentucky. Three Knoxville locations are slated to open in fall 2022 and winter 2023.
If you can remember back to January 2021 (how was that almost 5 months ago already?) the announcement was made that a new restaurant was coming to Evansville. The restaurant is Biscuit Belly, and they re based out of Louisville. According to the Biscuit Belly website they currently have three locations, all in Louisville, so it s very exciting that they re expanding to Evansville.

Louisville-based Biscuit Belly has signed two multi-unit development agreements to franchise 10 locations in Kentucky, Tennesee and Alabama, according to a company press release.
Jay and Kelly Shoffner, who own 34 KFC and 10 Long John Silver s stores, will open six Biscuit Belly stores in Lexington, Kentucky and Knoxville, Tennesee. Their first location will open in mid-September with two additional local restaurants opening in winter 2022. Three Knoxville locations are slated to open in fall 2022 and winter 2023. My daughters are based in Louisville and they raved about the Biscuit Belly Concept, so when I heard the news that the brand was now franchising, we jumped at the chance to partner with one of the most craveable fast-casual concepts on the market, Jay Shoffner, owner of JRS Restaurant Corporation and Corbin Restaurants Inc., said in the release.
