Rise Biscuits and Righteous Chicken ’ s waitstaff-free service redefines quick dining

Founded with a passion for Southern flavors in 2012 , Rise Biscuits and Righteous Chicken Ltd ( Rise ) has established itself as a renowned destination for mouth-watering biscuits and chicken creations . With a commitment to excellence , Rise offers a unique dining experience through its waitstaff-free environment and efficient service line . From its fluffy , made-from-scratch biscuits bursting with savory ingredients to its tenderized , brined , and fried-toperfection Righteous Chicken , every bite is a testament to its dedication to quality and flavor . Brian Wiles , COO , provides an overview of Rise ’ s journey . “ Rise will be celebrating its 11th anniversary at the end of November ,

2023 . Initially , we were a biscuit and donut shop crafting these items in-house , with great success in Durham , North Carolina . Our growth journey led us to franchising locally in North Carolina , which prompted us to simplify the brand by shifting the focus away from donuts . While we still serve some donuts , we primarily specialize in crafting freshly made buttermilk and savory biscuits . In addition , we offer highquality breakfast items , including eggs , bacon , and our signature fried chicken , which is made from a brined four-ounce chicken breast and served on biscuits or Martin ’ s potato rolls . We ’ ve also introduced chicken boxes , featuring items like chicken fingers , fries , and a choice of sauce .
