Southern Comfort Food Drive-Thru Comes To Northeast DC
Mason Dixie Biscuit Co. will open it's first brick-and-mortar location on Saturday. Expect juicy fried chicken, hearty biscuits and more.
WASHINGTON, DC — The District's first Southern comfort food drive-thru will open in Brookland in Northeast DC Saturday.
Mason Dixie Biscuit Co. was first started as a community-funded pop-up shop in Union Market by Baltimore native Ayeshah Abuelhiga. It's now moving to it's own brick-and-mortar drive-thru location at 2301 Bladensburg Rd., NE.
Comfort food lovers can expect hearty biscuit sandwiches like beef & cheddar or fried chicken club, juicy fried chicken and creamy frozen "Cultshakes" by one of DC's premier ice creameries, Milk Cult. Buttermilk biscuits are paired with your choice of season jam, cucumber ranch or BBQ sauce. Classic Southern sides include cheddar cheese grits, dirty rice, collard greens, coleslaw and mac & cheese.

The restaurant will be a "nostalgic throw-back to a vintage roadside kitchenette," according to their website. It has a retro vibe and is located on an old drag lot.
Mason Dixie Biscuit Co.'s grand opening will be held Saturday at 9 a.m. The first 100 customers will receive a coupon for a free biscuit, an the first 10 classic or exotic cars to drive through will get a free breakfast.
